Children of the night　Richard Marx

All that I know in my life
I have learned on the street
No magic carpet, no genie
No shoes on my feet
Will I wake up from this nightmare
A fear that chills me to the bone
Though I may be one of many
I feel so all alone

※ We are the children of the night
We won't go down without a fight
Our voice is strong
Our future's bright
And thanks to what we learned from you
We've grown into the children of the night

Left by my father with only this scar on my face
Told by my mother that
No, you were just a mistake
I have tasted my own hunger
Sold my body to survive
Some have paid to scratch the surface
But they can't touch what's inside (※)

How I long for something better
Than this life I know too well
Lord, I know I'm bound for heaven
'Cause I've done my time in hell (※)

夜的小孩理查玛尔克斯

我的一生
是在街头学到的
没有什么神奇魔毯或精灵
我的双脚没有穿鞋
我能否从这恶梦中醒来呢
一阵冷颤直抵心底
虽然我可能是众多人中的一个
我却感到如此孤单

我们是夜的小孩
我们用争吵来解决问题
我们的声音如此坚定
我们的未来一片光明
多亏从你身上学到的点点滴滴
我们成长为夜的小孩

遭父亲遗弃，只留下脸上的疤痕
母亲告诉我
你只是一场错误
我尝尽饥苦
我出卖肉体只为生存
有人向恶魔买来片刻的安慰
但这些都无法触及真正的内心

我多么渴望更好的生活
这样的生活对我来说太过奢华
神啊，我知道我正朝向天堂
因为我曾深陷地狱
