Depression is strong,
but I am stronger.
It's able to control my mind,
but with buttons that can be left behind.

The panel is turned on,
and my brain is turned off.
But with a little glowing light,
the switch that says "off" is in sight.

Depression is strong,
but I am stronger.
It can hide my being away,
but with a key that is not astray.

The key locks me in,
and locks the help out.
But through the gaps in the cell,
is the key that fits the lock so well.

Depression is strong,
but I am stronger.
It might make me feel weak,
but with strength, no damage it will wreak.

The weakness goes up,
and the strength goes down.
But when I reach the switch and key,
my power rising again, is what you'll see.
