Verse 1:
I’m running down the alley, shadows in my wake,
Heart pounding in the silence, it’s a big mistake.
The sirens scream behind me, time's slipping through,
In a world of bad decisions, I don’t know what to do.
Chorus:
Caught in the act, nowhere to hide,
Fingers on the trigger, with nowhere to slide.
Caught in the act, the pressure’s on tight,
Facing my reflection in the cold street light.
Verse 2:
Eyes wide with terror, breath quickens with fear,
Every turn looks the same, it’s a dead-end here.
The choices that I made, now they suffocate,
In the shadow's embrace, it’s a bitter fate.
Chorus:
Caught in the act, nowhere to hide,
Fingers on the trigger, with nowhere to slide.
Caught in the act, the pressure’s on tight,
Facing my reflection in the cold street light.
Bridge:
Lights flash, they’re closing in, no escape from this sin,
I can hear them breathing down my neck, I know I can’t win.
Trapped in the chaos, I feel the walls close,
Every second ticks louder, this is how it goes.
Chorus:
Caught in the act, nowhere to hide,
Fingers on the trigger, with nowhere to slide.
Caught in the act, the pressure’s on tight,
Facing my reflection in the cold street light.
Outro:
The world fades away, as I’m caught in the night,
Caught in the act, and I’m losing the fight.
