There used to be a football team here
New Brighton Tower FC
They no longer have fixtures
Their plans turned to dust
Nothing now remains
Pregnant at sixteen
My younger brother
Died young of a wasting disease
That might have been curable given time
I lied on my CV
Decay Decay Decay
There is nothing but decay
He used to turn tricks
In the bushes
That now cover the site
The river like the area
Is now polluted black
The Beatles once played here
When the going was good
Before they too faded into history
Nothing now remains
Apart from the decay
