Fight Or Flight
Jeff Berman
A preemptive goodbye
Try not to close my eyes
Then I am gone
But the seconds move too quick
This tension is so thick
That I lose all my breathe
It's nights like these I'll miss the most
When I'm far from this flooded coast
Escaped from what I never should have left
To fight or flight and flee
Pressure builds with ever second
I'm awake
You count yourself to sleep
Empty spaces staring back
I'm stuck between
It's nights like these that steal our days
Leave us with no right words to say
But the time for me and you
Was never right
And it's times like these I wanna stay
And side-step every challenge faced
Leave it all to fortune
And the consequence of fate
