Freeze To Burn

The Church · Other Songs - The Church

People getting frightened 'cause the night is very thick

When I think about you sister, we need to panic here

You better take an arrow, you better take a sled

When it starts blowing just remember what I said



You gotta freeze until it burns

You gotta burn until you learn

You gotta learn until you seize

You gotta freeze until you burn



People think they're dreaming, they're really wide awake

I did it for the money and for goodness' sake

Meet me in the igloo with a factual gaze

Help me to decipher the shadow of this maze



You gotta freeze until it burns

You gotta burn until you learn

You gotta learn until you seize

And you freeze until you burn



Now look, fire in the rude banks, eyes inside the grave

Everything is opposite, right now it's too late

When you hear the birdsong stop, when you see the glow

That's the only certainty that you'll ever know



You're gonna freeze until it burns

You're gonna burn until you learn

You're gonna learn until you freeze

Freeze until you burn, okay



You're gonna freeze until it burns

You're gonna burn until you learn

We're gonna love it when you freeze

Freeze until you burn, alright
