Ask Embla Children song lyrics

Everybody here used to be children

Born into the world beneath the sun

Growing with a foolish heart

And pockets full of faith

Praying we'll all matter to someone

Everybody here has had a mother

Even if they never saw her light

But everybody here used to be children

We are born with someone else's eyes

We are born of children

Everybody here used to be children

Even if we hid it deep inside

Wasting days on make-belief

Believing we are strong

Only to find we're afraid at night

Everybody here has had a father

Even if he never talked of love

But everybody here used to be children

We are born of daughters and of sons

We are born of daughters and of sons

We are born of children
