[Verse 1] Outside there's a runaway The lights go down, the world goes rushing in Neon light takes the light of day Stars like dust start falling Inside there's a loneliness The demon tries to charm you with his smile No time to dream or rest In the caves of steel, faces are changing [Chorus] They're the runaways [x2] Children of the damned They're the runaways Running for their life, faster than they can They're the runaways [Verse 2] On the street the traffic dies The break of day, it always comes too soon Running out of reasons why All your life you blamed it on the moon Look out for the danger signs You're stealing time but you know you'll never win Another border line In the caves of steel, faces are changing [Chorus] They're the runaways Children of the night They're the runaways Running for your life, faster than you can They're the runaways, run, run, runaways [Verse 3] Nightmares chase the dreams away
The cold night reflects the way you feel It's just another town It's just one more night to k** All the streets are empty now Like the wolf, you walk this night alone And in some other world In the caves of steel, faces are changing [Chorus] They're the runaways, (they're the runaways) (run, run, run) They're the runaways, (they're they runaways) Children of the night They're the runaways, (run, run, run, run away) Running for your life, faster than you can They're the runaways. (run, run, run, run away) Children of the damned They're the runaways, (they're the runaways) Running for your life, (faster than they can) They're the runaways. (run, run, runaways) They're the runaways, (they're the runaways) (children of the night) They're the runaways. (they're the runaways) (running for their life, faster than they can) (they're the runaways) (run, run, run, run away) Run
