You hijack the cells of my body Like a virus Infecting Restricting. You've ensured that when it is Crucial That I fight back I am unable to. I am left Powerless and unmoving, Save the ever so slight Fluttering of eyelids. You've turned me against myself Trapped me in a useless mind That cannot feel The love he has for me The love that would heal me If only I could feel it. But you've know all along what you're up against, And you've known all along that you - That I - That We Cannot win.

Ode to Depression
You hijack the cells of my body Like a virus Infecting Restricting. You've ensured that when it is Crucial That I fight back I am unable to. I am left Powerless and unmoving, Save the ever so slight Fluttering of eyelids. You've turned me against myself Trapped me in a useless mind That cannot feel The love he has for me The love that would heal me If only I could feel it. But you've know all along what you're up against, And you've known all along that you - That I - That We Cannot win.
