THE CHILDREN OF THE NIGHT
Say no to drugs
If the lord came down from heaven to see what he could see
He’d take a look around impressed he would not be
He’d see the city lights all shining all so bright
Yet know the terror that does lye deep within the night
Some children he’ll see crying for no future do they see
For some will steal and some will lie and some will run away
Those who run will fall pray to the stranger in the night
And if the stranger finds them you’ll lose them on this night
The stranger walks in shadows and stalks them late at night
The nights are long the winds blow cold the warmth they long to feel
The sharpness of the needles they do not even feel
And deep within their veins the drugs begin flow
Taking them to a place a child should never go
For if the drugs takes them then their fears will be no more
And the love that they had longed for will have no value anymore
You’ll loose them to the stranger; they’ll die with in the streets
Your hearts will than be broken, but the stranger he wont weep
You say that you do love them than do what you know is right
Find your child that roams the street and take them home tonight
They where born of love not hate, so show them that you care
Open up your hearts and save the children from despair
Stop the anger and the fight and let the love begin
Open up your arms real wide and let your child walk in
