On Top of the World

Oh how it feels to be on top of the world
Unstoppable energy, immovable joy
To feel that nothing could take you down
Unbreakable confidence, starlit dreams

To being taken down by the woes of depression
Just a few thoughts, just a few cuts
Back to the bottom of the ladder you go
Destroying everything, confidence shattered

Oh how it felt to be on top of the world
Climbing back up again, rebuilding the stairs
Is there a more powerful force than the claws of depression?
Sinking into me, never letting go
