All And Everyone - PJ Harvey
Composed by:Polly Jean Harvey
Death was everywhere
In air
And in the sounds
Coming off the mounds
Of bolton's ridge
Death's anchorage
When you rolled a smoke
Or told a joke
It was in the laughter and drinking water
It approached the beach
As strings of cutters
Dropped into the sea and lay around us
Death was in the ancient fortress
Shelled by a million bullets
From gunners waiting in the copses
With hearts that threatened to pop their boxes
As we advanced into the sun
Death was all and everyone
Death was all and everyone
As we advancing
In the sun
As we advancing
Every man
As we advancing
In the sun
Death hung in
The smoke
And clung
To 400 acres of
Useless beach front a
Bank of red earth dripping down
Death is now and now and now
Death was everywhere
In the air
And in the sounds
Coming off the mounds
Of bolton's ridge
Of just anchorage
Death was in the staring sun
Fixing it's eyes on everyone
It rattled the bones
Of the light horsemen
Still lying out there in the open
As we advancing
In the sun
As we advancing
Every man
As we advancing
In the sun
Sing death to all
And everyone
