Prisoner of the Night

[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
