We are the children Of a single flame. Our lights burn on As an eternal are For really we are one and the same Not at war with the world But at ones own name Struggling to find where we really belong Why can't we see we were at home all along A fight that only we can decide Yet one that affects everyone inside We are the children Of a dimming flame Fading away in this wicked game Searching for truths where there are only lies Looking for a home that is well disguised But alone we still travel When there's hope in your eyes I am a child That can only be happy After being so sad Still learning who I really am Fighting the world everyday But it is with you that I find my name For it is in your embrace That I stop trying to find where I belong For it is in your arms that home was, all along.

We are the children.
We are the children Of a single flame. Our lights burn on As an eternal are For really we are one and the same Not at war with the world But at ones own name Struggling to find where we really belong Why can't we see we were at home all along A fight that only we can decide Yet one that affects everyone inside We are the children Of a dimming flame Fading away in this wicked game Searching for truths where there are only lies Looking for a home that is well disguised But alone we still travel When there's hope in your eyes I am a child That can only be happy After being so sad Still learning who I really am Fighting the world everyday But it is with you that I find my name For it is in your embrace That I stop trying to find where I belong For it is in your arms that home was, all along.
Not sure about the last stanza, if anyone has any suggestions, they'd be more than welcomed! Thank you.
