Get out of bed
But how do I get out of bed
When I can hardly open my eyes
When I feel like my body is a lead block
Sinking in the ocean of my bed
How do I get out of bed
When I am chained to the post
by the thoughts in my head
And if I were to break free from my prison
I will not be able to gain the strength
To leave my oppressor
How do I get out of bed
When my depression keeps screaming
You are weak
You cant escape
Not good enough
The only time I can escape my depression is when I sleep
How do I get out of bed
When a soft tempting voice whispers
Its so warm in bed
you don't have to leave
What if you just stay in bed today?
My depression agrees
What if you just stayed in bed today
But I stayed in bed yesterday
We had this same fight then too
And the day before
My depression smiles
You lost then too
