Hey echowillow I need help!

I was attempting to translate this song today (with the help of an online dictionary) and I got stuck on a couple of the lines.  Do you mind taking a look at it for accuracy and helping me out with those lines?  If you have the time, please feel free to correct anything.
I would really appreciate it!    Thanks echowillow!!!!!

广场 by Carsick Cars
Guǎng Chǎng
The Square (as in public square)


他整夜的坐在广场里面
tā zhěng yè de zuò zài guǎng chǎng lǐ miàn 
He sits in the square all night long

等待着他的救星出现
děng dài zhe tā de  jiù xīng  chū xiàn
Waiting for his national savior to appear.

他也许就站在你的面前
tā yě xǔ  jiù zhàn zài nǐ de miàn qián
Maybe he's standing right in front of you

注视着你成长的一切
zhù shì  zhe nǐ chéng zhǎng de yí qiè
Attentively watching every step of your growth.

这是一个没有希望的广场
zhè shì yī gè méi yǒu xī wàng de guǎng chǎng
This is a square without hope. 
这是一个没有希望的广场
这是一个没有希望的广场
这是一个没有希望的广场

广场上曾经奔跑的青年
guǎng chǎng shàng céng jīng bēn pǎo de qīng nián 
The youth who once ran across this square,

如今已经失去了他们的信念
rú jīn yǐ jīng  shī qù le tā men de xìn niàn
Nowadays they've already lost their faith.

而你整夜的坐在广场里面
ér nǐ zhěng yè de zuò zài guǎng chǎng lǐ miàn
And you sit in the square all night

等待黑夜吞噬着你的一切
děng dài hēi yè  tūn shù zhe nǐ de yí qiè
And wait for night engulfing your everything.

这是一个没有希望的广场
zhè shì yī gè méi yǒu xī wàng de guǎng chǎng
This is a square without hope. 
这是一个没有希望的广场
这是一个没有希望的广场
这是一个没有希望的广场
