Tangled
Everywhere I look around
and watch those who pass on by
leaving me alone with just
the stars and moonlit sky.
Tangled knots keep me here
with ties I'm forever bound
I try and call out into space
but no one hears a sound
With nothing but a necklace of twine
I go to the edge and look down
waves crash against the sides
coming from all around
I think about how people would react
when they heard the bad news
all my thoughts have become a bomb
impossible to diffuse
But even when all hope was lost
I was lifted from the sinking ship
you took one look at the ropes
and that's all it took to - *snip*
