Sat here lonely in the dark
Sat here lonely in the dark
Mood so low, iv lost my spark
No joy from the little things
My mind black when the birds sing
Always stuck on what to say
I wish this illness would go away
Bored as can be, concentration zero
How do I go from zero to hero?
Can't say the words I want to say
They come out jumbled anyway
Insomnia hitting hard
I wish my life was like a hallmark card
Trying to watch TV to unwind
It's so difficult when your stuck in your mind
Withering away piece by piece
I have so much I need to unleash
Bitting a stick to stop the agitation
Any loud sound is an aggrevation
Hospital or wait that's my choice
Death feels like something I could rejoice
Darkness follows even in the light
The body always in fight or flight
Cortisol low, body breaking
The rest of my life is mine for the taking
Sat here lonely in the dark
This relapse has really left its mark
Another weekend of trying to survive
I am still grateful I'm alive
But when the darkness takes over
It leaves my mind to over exposure
Dark thoughts flood the mind
My life becoming hard to find
Sadness is a dangerous feeling
It's your whole life it is stealing
Sat here lonely in the dark
Bipolar really has left its mark
Come find me if you must
I'll be in the window turning to dust
Another weekend battle to fight
Fight it I will with all my might
Sat here lonely in the dark
Come and find me if you must
