Prisoner of the Night

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I walk the streets so endlessly Wandering where they cannot see Fight my way through the struggle and strife But I've become a prisoner of the night [Refrain] A prisoner of the night [Verse 2] An alley cat so strong and proud Sometimes you have to run and hide before you pounce I look straight into the glow of his eyes And he knows I'm a prisoner of the night [Refrain] A prisoner of the night [Bridge] With a swish of his tail he is gone And save for my shadow, I'm alone But the feeling of danger is there Like a cat I crouch and stare I'll go down fighting all the way [Verse 3] The hair on my neck stands like his would And there is cold steel at my side Please do not force my hand, 'cause I will end your life The stars look on indifferently [Verse 4] Then I awaken from my dreams It is the afternoon, it's all slipped away from me People walk, the city bustles with life But soon enough I'll be a prisoner of the night [Refrain] A prisoner of the night A prisoner of the night A prisoner of the night
