I'll Be Waiting - PJ Harvey

They swept across the land

They did not leave a thing

They did not leave a person

A stone or a tree

They did not leave anything

They did not leave anything

All it’s left is sand

All it’s left is sand

I remember, father

I remember him

Every minute I remember

Every moment

Now I hate everyone

Now I hate everyone

Before, I used to love

Before, I used to love

One day, thorns shall grow

One day, thorns shall grow

From their graves

When they return

Throns will grow

Over their graves

I will be waiting

And when they return

I will be waiting

I will not leave a person

Standing

I will not leave anything

I will not leave anything

All I’ll leave is sand

All I’ll leave is sand

And then thorns shall grow

And then thorns shall grow

From their graves

When they return

Throns shall grow

Over their graves

I will be waiting

When they return

Throns shall grow

Over their graves

I will be waiting
