Weighed Down

We all have a thief dying to come out We must control that side of us…We must undo that knot (we must solve the case) We are victims in our own minute minds…no doubt We must arrest that criminal…before it causes mischief and what not (find your own way out of my maze) Reawaken from depression Don’t be weighed down by apprehension… Stay awake…don’t wither away…don’t move a single muscle Listen to the whispering wind…and its rustle Promise me you won’t drift away Drowning in depression Don’t let me influence you to a certain degree Stay alive…and be content… wait till Resurrection Glisten as the sensational sun…and its sun rays, glittering with glee (chorus) Weighed down… I’m wearing a remorseful frown… Weighed down… Gravity holds me down To the ground… without a sound…. Face down… Without a sound… left there without a sound… Without a sound… no one cared… they never did from the start And it breaks my heart To say this, but I feel this way… And I don’t want to fade away… Left without a trace… Look at my bloodied face And solve this bewildering, Outlandish case While you do that, I’ll be running the race But, I’ve learned That we all wear that mask…of a miserable clown
