Mental Health Hurts
Mental health issues are a horrible thing
Make you think life's not worth living
You learn to hide your inner thoughts
Even from all your cohorts
You just don't know where to turn
Every emotion makes you burn
But deep inside your really nice
The issues you've faced you pay the price
There is help out there you cannot see
But if you want talk to me
I'm not a doctor I will not judge
My mind is blank just like fudge
I know you feel your going insane
But your not its your inner brain
If you talk you will feel better
Hopefully get off that helter-skelter
Stand tall and fight this inner ghoul
For you are strong and not a fool
Don't think it's easy to just end
Think of your family and your friend
They will always be there for you
They are hurting very much too
But they need you to understand
They want you here, beside you they stand
