Depression whispers lies in my ear
Telling me all the things that I fear
I don’t want to listen, don’t want to hear
But my depression knows
All that I hold dear

‘They don’t love you’
‘They’re not your friends’
‘You’ll be all alone in the end’
‘You are worthless’
‘Be ashamed’

How do I cease the voice inside
Telling me to run and hide
To shut myself from those I love
To hang from the ceiling
Or escape in drug

Tell me what I can do
Why can’t I feel loved like others do
Why does depression kick in my door
Convince me
I’m not loved anymore

I have to fight it, I know I can
But no one can help me
I’ll only drive them away
My depression
Is going to win one day
