We are bathed in smoke and sweat
Soaked through bases, boots are wet
The black welcomes our swollen feet
A safety where we try to sleep
/
Soaked through bases, boots are wet
They say she’s not contained just yet
A safety where we try to sleep
A peace we aren’t destined to keep
/
They say she’s not contained just yet
Hunger pains we’ll soon forget
A peace we aren’t destined to keep
The ground is radiating heat
/
Hunger pains we’ll soon forget
Growing gold of fiery sunset
The ground is radiating heat
She returns and we repeat
/
Growing gold of fiery sunset
An untouched bed, a cigarette
She returns and we repeat
Hearts go hush and slow to beat
/
An untouched bed, a cigarette
The black welcomes our swollen feet
Hearts go hush and slow to beat
We are bathed in smoke and sweat
They call me Spitfire.
