Freeze Rush

[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

[Bridge 1]
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

[Verse 2]
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
