THE FEELING INSIDE THAT YOU CAN'T GO ON

It's another sleepless night
I feel like giving up in this fight
The pills I take for the pain
But the sadness  remains
I ask myself how I can take control
In my mind, I'm not that old
Sometimes depression is hard to bear
Every day I say so many prayers
This life of mine was always worth living
But something in my life is still missing
I have a flood of tears inside of me
I guess I feel something inside of me already died
During the day I show people I'm happy
But at night I know I'm unhappy
Sometimes you never want to wake up
But I know the next day my sadness will still be stuck
I guess inside my life is dying
And I keep asking myself why do I keep on trying
Today the doctor is helping me with my depression
And I hope he will lead me in the right direction
Inside of me, there is a happy person, whom I want to be
But in life, we know there is no guarantee
