I remember being normal Full of life and cheerful Now it's a memory far-flung Since the day you came along Your knock made my heart beat profoundly Not the good kind, it was unsoundly I thought my heart was gonna explode And I shook uncontrolled My knees gave in and I felt heavy It was a chilly night but I still felt sweaty I couldn't begin to fathom what just happened I brushed it off as an off occurrence But who would have imagined? It was the first of many to happen No it's not a loved one or a friend It's the demons inside my head Mr. Depression and Ms. Anxiety The demons invisible to society Ergo my cry for help and screams of pain Became harder to explain You say everyone hates me And I am to blame Enough! Go away! Stop calling me names; Fat, Ugly, Crazy, Worthless, You say I put my family to shame You have made me hate own reflection Rather than loving it, I loathe my imperfections Can anyone hear the silent screams in my mind? No you have made sure I tell everyone I am fine You have ignited a fire that just burns bridges I am concerned, I am alone, I can't keep up with this I often want to pull the trigger ending it all I am drained and tired, a little push and it will be curtain call Mr. Depression and Ms. Anxiety ENOUGH? STOP! I plead for my life I can't bare this anymore the burning is making me go blind The darkness is ever so consuming It's pitch black, very confusing Some days I am Jekyll, some days I am Hyde I have lost myself I can no longer tell which is you and which is me I want the normal days I remember Where I was happy and cheerful It has become a distant memory I just want to be me I beg you, I implore you, I am on my knees! Have some mercy, LEAVE ME ALONE! I just want to be me.

Mr. Depression & Ms. Anxiety
I remember being normal Full of life and cheerful Now it's a memory far-flung Since the day you came along Your knock made my heart beat profoundly Not the good kind, it was unsoundly I thought my heart was gonna explode And I shook uncontrolled My knees gave in and I felt heavy It was a chilly night but I still felt sweaty I couldn't begin to fathom what just happened I brushed it off as an off occurrence But who would have imagined? It was the first of many to happen No it's not a loved one or a friend It's the demons inside my head Mr. Depression and Ms. Anxiety The demons invisible to society Ergo my cry for help and screams of pain Became harder to explain You say everyone hates me And I am to blame Enough!
