I Am

I am a girl who's depressed
I wonder who I can trust
I hear voices in my head
I see old scars
I want to be free and accepted
I am a girl who's depressed

I pretend that I am happy
I feel pain as the razor cuts me
I touch my pills, contemplating
I worry how long this will go on
I cry because I am suicidal
I am a girl who's depressed

I understand I am not pretty
I say tomorrow will be better
I dream I am someone else
I try to improve myself
I hope I can graduate high school
I am a girl who's depressed
