Bramble (feat. Karine Polwart)

The streets are choked with briar

The cars are coiled over

Lock all the doors

And close the shutters

The air flutters

The streets are choked with briar

The house is looped with wire

Lock all the doors

And close the shutters

The air flutters

The thorn marches along the hedges

The thorn arches along the parks on the city edges

The thorn marches along the hedges

The thorn arches along the parks on the city edges

The streets are cloaked with briar

Where sings a feathered choir

Open the doors

Unfold the shutters

The air-

Open the doors

Unfold the shutters

The air flutters
