How does it feel being tied in knots,
Hanging alone in times forgot?
Fraying threads at one end
Tangled hearts hard to mend
Does it feel good without esteem,
Ripped and torn at the seems?
Threading out thinning lies
Out and in from loose alibis
Staple my bleeding heart
Flowing rivers apart
Forked and winding
Pulse not finding
Dead on the inside
Too many tears I have cried
Sail upon my blood
Drift on tears enough
To meet again I am sure
My river meeting with yours
Through the cotton fields
One strand enough to heal
Joined together again at the sea
Patch me up, I'm on my knees
Forever scared but now won't bleed
