Freeze Lyrics

The city crouches, steaming

 In the early morning half light

 The sun is still a rumor

 And the night is still a threat

 Slipping through the dark streets

 And the echoes and the shadows

 Something stirs behind me

 And my palms begin to sweat

 

 Sometimes I freeze...until the light comes

 Sometimes I fly...into the night

 Sometimes I fight...against the darkness

 Sometimes I'm wrong...sometimes I'm right

 

 Coiled for the spring

 Or caught like a creature in the headlights

 Into a desperate panic

 Or a tempest of blind fury

 Like a cornered beast

 Or a conquering hero

 

 The menace threatens, closing

 And I'm frozen in the shadows

 I'm not prepared to run away

 And I'm not prepared to fight

 

 I can't stand to reason

 Or surrender to a reflex

 I will trust my instincts

 Or surrender to my fright

 

 Sometimes we freeze...until the light comes

 Sometimes we're wrong...and sometimes we're right

 Sometimes we fight...against the darkness

 Sometimes we fly...into the night

 

 Blood running cold

 Mind going down into a dark night

 Of a desperate panic

 Or a tempest of blind fury

 Like a cornered beast

 Or a conquering hero

 

 Sometimes I freeze

 Sometimes I fight

 Sometimes I fly

 Into the night
