PJ Harvey - Bitter Branches lyrics

[PJ Harvey - Bitter Branches lyrics]

Bitter branches spreading out
There's none more bitter than the wood
Into the wide world it grows

Twisting under soldiers' feet
Standing in lines and the
Damp earth underneath
Holding up their rifles high
Holding their young wives who wave goodbye

Hold up the clear glass, look and see
Soldiers standing and the
Roots twist underneath
Their young wives with white
Hands wave goodbye
Their arms as bitter branches
Spreading into the world
Wave goodbye, they wave goodbye
Wave goodbye, they wave goodbye
Wave goodbye, wave goodbye
They wave goodbye, wave goodbye
