Mental Health Upgrade
Mental Health Upgrade
I can’t get up it hurts my back
My knees go out I start to weep
I can’t stay awake
I can’t go to sleep
I’ve done what I can, so now I count sheep
I stay home all day
I’m alone and lost
So this is my life but at what cost?
My circuits are crossed
Mental Health is up for grabs
I am bipolar and it plays tricks
Sometime I fly more times I fall
So this is my life
I don’t want to play any more
I take my meds as I should
Sometimes they work, sometimes no more
Then I spiral, down down down
To dwell in my hell
No one notices. No one to tell
Don’t remember today
But remember the past
My apartment is not a house
Nor is it a home
So I am alone so alone
I’m going shopping at the bipolar store
I need something but it is not there
