Darkness, despair, emptiness, alone,
Solitude, depression, fatigue, confusion,
Nobody worries if you don't answer your phone, 
Nobody cares that your smile's just an illusion.

Your mind seeks out refuge in a most sinister place,
Your confidence gone, you feel you are worthless,
So many ignorant of the pain in your face,
So many so called friends quite simply couldn't care less.

You cry out for help, but nobody hears,
You reach out for hope, but none can you find,
Nobody listens as you pour out your fears, 
Nobody cares about your scared, lonely mind.

The times you have been there for friends most in need,
The hours you have sat there as they poured out their woes,
But now that you need them, for help you won't plead,
As alone you must fight off your depression born foes.
