Let The Depression Sink In

Crying alone on my bed,
Wondering about my life,
Thinking that this will pass,
Dreaming that my pain will fade away,
That my tears will evaporate,
But the depression sinks in,
I invite it in like an old friend,
As I stare at my bottle in wonder,
My anxiety now overwhelming,
My hand shaking just holding the bottle,
As I watch another take pills,
As another ties a noose,
As another slits their wrists,
As I chug the bottle,
Hoping that life would get better,
That people would see,
How much they mean to me,
As I hide my own scars,
A smile so artificial,
As I watch the one I love the most,
Open a bottle and fiddle with pills,
Reaching out only to be pushed away,
Trying so hard to keep them,
On the right path,
The pills now gone,
As he collapsed to the floor,
The one I loved the most,
Let the depression sink in...

Oh what a world,
A world that pushes to hard,
A world that asks for to much,
No one cares about depression,
Not as much as me,
Flipping through channels,
Like on a Tv,
Trying so hard to fix this world,
Trying so hard to save them,
From the deep depression,
As everyone else turns their backs,
Not caring enough to look back,
I open my arms out wide,
To take in the tidal Wave Of emotions,
I'll be the lifeguard of,
The Sea Of Depression,
Trying to save those who are drowning...
