Bonsai Tree Burning Lyrics by TheWomen

TheMachine

2021

The river that slows
Met the fire born
Story never been unfolded
Picture coming from the kinescope
But you never seem to notice
Coming home
From defeat in war
Only if your house's not distroyed
Touching the lips in the break of dawn
Shaking hands when the mornin comes
Therefore then
Before me
The same old thing is happening
Therefore then
Before me
The bullet catches the lightning
And there's a bonsai tree burning
We're the last to deter
And
We kill, we're dying
For what? for nothing
There's a bonsai tree burning
We're the last to deter
And
We kill, we're dying
For what? for nothing
First the metal
Breaks the bones
Then death breaks the heart
Private was told by the corporal
To treat ppl like targets
And only if
It was possible
Quit remaing silence
Prive was told by the corporal
That its okay to kill someone
Thereofe then
Before me
Unified by destruction
Therefore then
Before me
Rapture after the bloodshed
But there's a bonsai tree burning
We're the last to deter
And
We kill, we're dying
For what? for nothing
There's a bonsai tree burning
We're the last to deter
And
We kill, we're dying
For what? for nothing
