Depression Depression
Depression Depression
Why can’t I shake you from my life
From my mind
From my body
From my soul
I want to scream help
Your hand is over my mouth
I try anyway but it is muffled
I cry
I cry
I cry
so hard my eyes
began to swell shut
I can’t see I can’t scream
I can’t
I can’t be me anymore
Why must I feel like this
Will you leave me alone
My mind runs
My mind race
My mind wonders
I have thoughts
They aren’t my thoughts
Depression Depression
They are your thoughts
Your lies
Your feelings
Your thoughts
Your lies
I need to get up
I need to get my strength
It’s so hard cuz now my mind
Won’t work
Won’t think
Can’t process
Can’t compute
Strength I need you
Be my rock
I’m up
I’m trying
Knocked back down
On my face
Knees bleeding
Hands scraped up
Depression Depression
Has won
HELP
Why can’t I shake you from my life
From my mind
From my body
From my soul
I want to scream help
Your hand is over my mouth
I try anyway but it is muffled
I cry
I cry
I cry
so hard my eyes
began to swell shut
I can’t see I can’t scream
I can’t
I can’t be me anymore
Why must I feel like this
Will you leave me alone
My mind runs
My mind race
My mind wonders
I have thoughts
They aren’t my thoughts
Depression Depression
They are your thoughts
Your lies
Your feelings
Your thoughts
Your lies
I need to get up
I need to get my strength
It’s so hard cuz now my mind
Won’t work
Won’t think
Can’t process
Can’t compute
Strength I need you
Be my rock
I’m up
I’m trying
Knocked back down
On my face
Knees bleeding
Hands scraped up
Depression Depression
