"living in wartime"

When you're living in wartime
You hide your face against the wall
Button your coat against the dark about to fall
When you're living in wartime
Sneaking out of alleys looking left and rightPainting propaganda in the dead of night
You run when no-one pursues
Time means nothing, and there's nothing to lose
When you're living in wartime
Living in wartime

When you're living in wartime
Snipers firing out of every street
You look for signals, but your intelligence is incomplete. 
When you're living in wartime
Death comes quickly in the twilit gloom
Straight lines glisten in the silence of the room
You write in codes no-one understands
Spies are everywhere in neutral lands
When you're living in wartime
Living in wartime

And you'll never relax at all
No, you'll never relax at all
'cause you gave up your life for the cause
And now you're living in wartime. 
Living in wartime

Because no-one will ever know your name
And no-one will ever feel the same
When you're living in wartime
Living in wartime

Yes you gave up your life for the cause
And now you're living in wartime. 
Living in wartime
