This depression doesn't make me weak
It makes me strong
For every day that I am still alive shows my strength
Because if I really wanted too
I could end it all
Give up
But yet I stand tall
I fight everyday
Holding strong when sometimes I'd rather crumble and fall
But I'm still here
I fight to smile
I fight to laugh
I fight against myself everyday
Against those thoughts I know are wrong
Those ideas that I am
Weak,
Pathetic,
Hopeless,
Loveless,
Not worth anything at all
So next time you call me weak I'm going to ignore you
Forget what you said
Because I know that I am strong
I fight every day to live
I won't let you discourage me
I will keep fanning this flame until I shine brighter than before
I won't give up anymore
