Depression Is

What is depression? Depression is a war It's a battle you have against yourself Every thought you have is a bullet more Every word is a knife in you heart Every movement is a punch Depression is a thief it takes what you want first Then it steals everything you have and love Everything you wish for becomes nothing anymore Every opportunity becomes a closed door Depression is a murder it kills you inside and out It makes you look in the mirror and want to hurt more It's a nightmare every second is a living hell Your to afraid to live To afraid to move To afraid to breathe It makes everything to hard to bare It's like an ocean A great big sea of emotion It makes you drown in your own thoughts It's this never ending pain This never ending circle of nothing It feels like nothing yet it hurts everything It's this never ending struggle Depression takes away your light It takes away the hope you used to have There is no escape from it It's a war you can not win You lose trying or end up dying It takes away your happiness It makes you feel emptiness Depression tips you from feeling It makes you numb It stops you from eating It stops you from sleeping It stops your from moving It sometimes stops you from breathing It's the thing that makes you fall Depression always will win Depression is a war a war I can not win Depression is a war One that makes you full of sin Depression is a war one I can not win Depression is a war It's a battle you have against yourself Depression is a war One you can win one you will win So yes your an angel But it's not your turn to fly So for now hold me tight Stay away from the sky Yes depression is a war But it's one we will win DEPRESSION IS A WAR ITS A WAR WE WILL OVERCOME!
