The shadows creep beside me, I pretend that I don’t care
They tap me on my shoulder, they whisper are you there?
At times I can ignore them, but they are always near
Who would want their gift when their gift just brings me fear

Doubt and can’t won’t leave me
Worry sticks by my side
Panic will not go away
The pain I must abide

When darkness falls they strike with flair
To sleep I say goodbye
They own my mind I belong to them
There is no where to hide

On and on each day I try
And i will never give in
One day will be my day, one day I will win

I'll just keep on fighting
Until you stop calling my name

Until that day arrives
I’ll just keep dancing in the rain
Depression, anxiety, stress is a battle for a lot of people and I have my share. Each day is a new day to beat it and each day I try
