Lyrics

Intro

Oh oh

Cold mud

Mm-hmm

Verse 1

Heavy branches hanging

She broke

Swollen roots are digging down

Dragging her down

Rough bark feels like bone

White salt on her skin

Biting wind

The swamp swallows her boots

Pre-Chorus

Everything turned gray

Everything felt still

Everything just stopped

Chorus

Willow tree weep

Weep until the basin fills

Deep inside the thicket

You can see her standing there

Weep willow weep

Let the salt rain hit the ground

Weep willow weep

Weep willow weep

Post-Chorus

Hollow hollow

Heavy heavy

Drip drip

Verse 2

Green leaves turned to dust

Winter arrived too soon

Hungry shadows grow

Choking out the morning light

Empty girl

Washed out and pale

Gone fishing in the dark

Pre-Chorus

Everything turned gray

Everything felt still

Everything just stopped

Chorus

Willow tree weep

Weep until the basin fills

Deep inside the thicket

You can see her standing there

Weep willow weep

Let the salt rain hit the ground

Weep willow weep

Weep willow weep

Bridge

Cut the wood

Burn the wood

Watch the smoke rise high

Folded arms

Folded knees

Buried in the moss

Chorus

Willow tree weep

Weep until the basin fills

Deep inside the thicket

You can see her standing there

Weep willow weep

Let the salt rain hit the ground

Weep willow weep

Weep willow weep
