Depression
left in the dark with my tears
scream so loud but no’ one hears
by myself in an empty crowd
how is there silence when its so loud?
feeling lost and pushed around
searching praying for solid ground
it hurts today and worse tomorrow
the cure is sharp and always borrowed
never lasts it never stays
never wants to cure the pain
only make it subside until I can breathe
and then it leaves when I’m in need
just like everything I’ve loved and known
as I’ve matured, sharpened and grown
it hurts to say I hate my life
hurts to turn away from the light
its torture to know that I just don’t care
hell to look around and find no’ one there
its my curse, my burden, and my life
its long past the time to fight
at first you love it then you hate
you try to turn back but its to late
give it up embrace the pain.
