Depression Is a Sin

Whenever they can, your troubles persist Your mind becomes stressed. And your life's reduced to plot twists Designed to make you depressed. Life isn't fair But Goddamnit! Don't let despair Force you to submit! It's dark and evil and cold And many more sinister adjectives You can unfold But why should we be so negative? Life will spit in your face It will kick you around Make you live in disgrace And beat you to the ground But it is the mark Of a very sick person To accept these remarks From depression And fill their heart With chagrin So please impart That depression is a sin Even with no reason to live it Life is worth the unexpectedness And to hell with hell and heaven What will you lose from enjoying it? If you think for one moment That you don't deserve to live, Then at that exact moment You would have gained Immortality
