It was starting to rain On the night that they first decided It was blinding with snow On the night that they ran away They were found in the dark But they never returned Just like somebody slammed the door She was meant to be wild He was nearly a child But they only could feel each other They were paper and fire Angel and liar The devil of one another Then they were thrown to the ground with a terrible sound Just like somebody broke a heart Rock 'N' Roll Children Alone again Rock 'N' Roll Children Without a friend But they got Rock 'N' Roll It was starting to rain On the night that they cried forever it was blinding with snow On the night that they screamed goodbye They were lost in the dark And they never returned Just like somebody slammed the door On Rock 'N' Roll Children Alone again Rock 'N' Roll Children Without a friend
Dark touches send rushed through the brain Black's whiter, burns brighter than the flame No shadows, just whispers in the wind No faces, just places to begin I just come seeking pleasure, I hate the light
I speed at night, at night
My demons, they seem to disappear No vision, I only see to hear Protection, I never needed none Direction, just nowhere near the sun You've go some stairs to heaven, you may be right I only know in my world, I hate the light
I speed at night
Repeat Verse 1
You've got some stair to heaven, you may be right I only know in my world, I hate the light
Johnny was a dark child He was promised to us all But rides in the night, can lift you out of sight When they call
Sally was a princess She was chosen for the crown But chains can't stop the sound
Of one night in the city One night looking pretty
The someone opened doorways And Johnny slipped away Running for the bright, where dark is always light But there's no day
The princess saw the dark child And the dark child said her name
Come steal away, we'll play the game
Do you watch, do you see, do you know the people in me I'm the bite, I'm the bark, I'm the scream Are you poor, are you sure, are you holy, are you pure I can tell you tales you just might not believe
One night in the city, one night looking pretty One night in the city, one night looking pretty
The children shared the wonder Of the leather and the lace But one child went away, and one child stayed to play
