Depression
DepressionDo you ever feel that nobody cares?
That people walk past and do nothing but stare?
Depression is the deepest depths of dark
When your the bait, and the worlds a shark
When you look at my life I should applaud my life
I’m solving mum and quite a good wife!
I guess really I should applaud
But with this illness you can’t play that chord!
You go so far and there’s no turning back
You reach for the pills and unscrew the cap
You down some alcohol and a handful of pills
Praying that one of them eventually kills
But wait come back what are you doing STOP!
Look at everything you have got
To someone you are their entire life!
You are a mother and a wife!
Your husband adores you and so do your sons
So does your dad and so does your mum
As long as that voice keeps telling me stop
Il try to evaluate everything I’ve got
