Sadie saw smoke curling up from the trees Put on her coat and went outside to see A girl was feeding leaves and branches To a pile of burning debris and dancing Sadie said, "Got a nice fire tonight What's your name, if you don't mind?" She said, "My name is Serafina But people call me Sera to save some time" "Well, I've got all the time in the world" Sadie grabbed a stick and lit it while the girl Said she'd been committed as a child Discovered her love for fire, ran wild In the asylum was a charming arson Who broke out with his girl and started Burning through Georgia like a moonstruck Sherman Sera knew what she wanted for sure then "People are who they are," she said "And I want their kind of love Where you're bad together and it's good" Sadie said, "Let me grab some wood and booze See if we can't keep this thing alive till noon" (Serafina) Shoots Roman candles all around (Serafina) Smiling with matches in her mouth Letras de canciones(Serafina) Wears a bright blazing crown of flowers and down (Serafina) Smell of gasoline in her hair (Serafina) Cinders glow as she blows cool air (Serafina) In her stare burns a solar flare Months went by and they were happy Setting fire to trashed mattresses Cars with tickets on their dashes Mannequins scattered in tattered masses Through the rundown mall They'd take pictures for their book Rubbing the ash and the soot On each other's skin till it turned gray And pose like dying lovers from Pompeii In an overgrown lot They fucked till it got too hot Lying on top of a burning blanket They hopped up and stood there naked Smoking cigarettes and coughing Sera threw her lighter in, heard it popping "We gotta keep it up, Sadie, no stopping We gotta keep it up, Sadie, we're not stopping" They watched as the wind caught The fire spread a little further and died off Sadie said, "I'm gonna buy us an old house in a big town Where we can start a life and burn it all to the ground" (Serafina) Shoots Roman candles all around (Serafina) Smiling with matches in her mouth (Serafina) Wears a bright blazing crown of flowers and down (Serafina) Throws firecrackers at their feet (Serafina) They start dancing, dancing while they sing (Serafina) Throws her dress in the flames (Serafina) Black sequins writhing, black sequins shine (Serafina) They sing, "We'll never die" (Serafina) "We'll burn and cry, we'll never die" From Letras Mania
