Spitfire

 

I filled my lungs with violence

Ready to blow you away

Ready to start the fire         

One shot, one breath

But I see the road ahead

I will need the fuel to face it

I can’t afford to waste nor weaken my blaze

Cause you’re not worth it 

I’ll swallow my pride, I’ll swallow it deep

‘til I love the taste of it

Find it a seat, next to my fears

Learn the humble way

Give some to eat, put it to sleep

Make it a home to live in

Make it a friend, make it at ease

Cause it is here to stay

 

Swallow the pride

But keep it alive

Nourish the fire

But keep it inside

 

I filled my lungs with violence

Ready to blow you away

Ready to start the fire                 

One shot, one breath

But I see the road ahead

I will need the fuel to face it

I can’t afford to waste nor weaken my blaze

Cause you’re not worth it 

Tonight we ride the dragons             

Tonight we ride the silence                 

Tonight we tame the anger

To never release the fire

 

In the end I know who’s the animal

The burns on your hands, they tell it all

In the end I know who’s the animal

Playing with a flame you can’t control, control, control

 

I keep it inside for later

I don’t need a coat for the winter        

And while you’re freezing to death

I’ll enjoy the heat without weight on my shoulders

I still love the thrill of the danger

You’ll enjoy it more if you’re sober

Harvest the fruits of the patience

Savour the age of a wine no more sour

 

Swallow the pride

(Swallow the pride)

But keep it alive

(Keep it alive, keep it alive)

Nourish the fire

(Nourish the fire)

But keep it inside

(Keep it alive)

 

I filled my lungs with violence

Ready to blow you away

Ready to start the fire                             

One shot, one breath

But I see the road ahead

I will need the fuel to face it

I can’t afford to waste nor weaken my blaze

Cause you’re not worth it 

Tonight we ride the dragons              

Tonight we ride the silence                  

Tonight we tame the anger

To never release the fire

 

Never release the fire

Never release the fire

Never release the fire

Keep it inside for later
