Pain, Pain
Go away
Don't come back
for another day
But it decides to stay
Harboring my body
Leaving scars
Hurting the people I know
It will never go away
Until it's beaten you
Until you're gone
It whispers deep in the night
"You're nothing"
"Who would ever care about you?"
"No one cares"
"Go ahead, hurt another person, it won't fix you"
"You're broken"
Deafening any hope
any sort of reason
From Pain comes Depression
And he's a tricky thing
Taking anything anyone has said
and twisting it
reshaping it
until it's something degrading
He hits you like a truck
You'd never see him coming
I sure didn't
Doctors give pills,
psychiatrists give 'advice'
but it never helps
He's always there
Deep in your mind
An epidemic of the soul

Ding, ****
Depression is back
I cry over you
You'd never know
I hide my pain from you
You'll never find it
You get my hopes up
Only to drop me
Like a rock from a skyscaper
Bringing me back down
Down into my depression
It's just what you say
what you do
That makes my pain greaten
And cry at night
But you wouldn't know
