Depression
DEPRESSION
How many times have I done this, lived all alone
I know that I’ll get lonely and pick up the telephone
I’ll chat and when they ask, I’ll tell them that I’m fine
Of course that’s what you tell them when you’re losing your mind
The silence is deafening, it’s ringing in my ears
Once more my lovelies, I’m living my worst fears
Being solitaire, forever in my dreams
Is not what I wanted, or so it seems
Depression creeps in, when you least expect it
It pulls you down the rabbit hole, if you let it
Fight it off my lovely, fight with all your might
Fight until you dominate and kick it out of sight
