Negative Word Hive

More than broken
Less than drunk

Words not spoken
Depths not sunk

Wounds not healed
Secrets not sealed

Too many knots tying us down

Suns never setting
Love never getting

Letters always writing
Never ever sending

Hopes all dashed
Cars all crashed

Too many knots tying us down

Turn off phone
Curtains drawn alone

Tired and forlorn
Locks tightly shorn

Girls so sweet
Boys too neat

Too many knots tying us down

Glasses of pity
Thoughts of self

Tired of cities
Left on shelf

Gin and fags
Cocaine jags

Too many knots tying us down

Mugs all dirty
Boys all flirty

Sex and confusion
Life as illusion

Walking blind
Hate to find

Too many knots tying us down

Way past caring
Nothing to say

No point sharing
No sale today

No love here
No games played

Lack of cheer
Forever delayed.

Too many knots tying us down.
