It starts, so they say, with a change or drift in mood, a cloud above or tarantula in the corner,
a slow knocking, dropping, drifting over to the sides of our so called society.  

A few more drinks after work, a few more smokes round the bike
sheds, a few more whores outside of the matrimonial bedroom, nights lost in
front of WOW with dirty socks covering your phone on the floor.

Just a bit more exercise, start one day at a time, read and start to do your recycling,
who are we kidding, these people wont find their inner strength.
Meditate, breathe and don’t forget to wax your eyebrows to lift your face, 
I think I might throw up if somebody else asks me to smile, because it makes you feel better.

We are all downright lazy and many are downright depressed, but I get up everyday,
I hate the dark winters, I cant stand the way young people dress and take that can fuck off and die.
Last birthday mums boyfriend hung himself, the year before that I almost died,
Sometimes I need to be lazy, but I know I still have to deal with the next day.

I still smoke too much and I still see the beast on the horizon,
I want to go out and get high so I can dance my life away.
I hate that I am depressed and I hate that I still need to whine on about my trials,
Though somebody once told me tomorrow would be a better day.
