Depression

why do people play games
thats the reason i am so insane
a roller coaster caused by emotional pain
I really don't enjoy that kind of rain
so worn out, why can't I stop this
when does it all stop
my mind so confused don't know
what to say or do
I go beyond the color blue
It's true, why did I fall for you
all your lies
and guess what I can't even cry
a shrink will call this depession
but that would mean I am depressed
I am not pressed down
I am being played like a clown
now you tell me who wears the crown
do you enjoy the look of my frown
to hold me down by your honest lie
now you say you want to die
you killed me with your mind
I knew this would happen in time
now you know it wasnt you who truly died
and you show me a victim in you, then you cry
let me tell you depression is dead
I am numb, happiness nor sadness
shall ever reside,
I will give no one that kind of time
depression is not mine...
