Paul Northfield - Freeze lyrics

[Verse 1] 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 [Chorus] 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 [Verse 2] 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 [Chorus] [Bridge] 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 [Outro] Sometimes I freeze Sometimes I fight Sometimes I fly Into the night
