[00:30.88]Bitter branches
[00:33.32]spreading out.
[00:36.45]There's none more bitter
[00:39.76]than the wood.
[00:43.63]Into the wide world,
[00:47.32]it grows,
[00:49.58]twisting under
[00:52.33]soldier's feet,
[00:55.52]standing in line
[00:57.83]and the damp earth underneath.
[01:02.26]Holding up their rifles
[01:04.95]high,
[01:06.08]holding their young wives
[01:11.52]who wave goodbye.
[01:16.14]
[01:27.49]Hold up the clear glass
[01:30.43]to look and see
[01:33.37]soldiers standing
[01:35.68]and the roots twist underneath.
[01:40.56]Their young wives with white hands
[01:43.43]wave goodbye.
[01:46.12]Their arms as bitter branches
[01:48.99]spreading into the world.
[01:52.56]Wave goodbye,
[01:55.81]Wave goodbye....
