We are the children who forgot how to fall
We are the ones who conquered them all
We are the large eyes at your door
We are the hungry feeding the poor
We are the children who forgot how to fall
And
We are the angels who lost it all.

&quot;At this moment, there are 6 billion, 4 hundred, 71 million, 8 hundred, 18 thousand, 6 hundred, 71 people in the world. Some are running scared.. some are coming home. Some tell lies to make it through the day.. others are just now facing the truth. Some are evil men at war with good, and some are good.. struggling with evil. 6 billion people in the world, 6 billion souls -- and sometimes.. all you need is 1.&quot;
