I can’t get up it hurts my **** My knees go out I start to weep I can’t stay awake I can’t go to sleep I’ve done what I can So now I count sheep My circuits are crossed I stay home all day With nothing to say I’m lost and alone So this is my life? But at what cost? My mental health is up for grabs I am bipolar and it plays tricks on me Sometime I fly more times I fall So this is my life I don’t want to play anymore I take my meds as I should Sometimes they work Sometimes no more Then I spiral down To dwell in my hell No one notices. No one to tell Don’t remember today But remember the past My apartment is not a house Nor is it a home So I am alone so alone Try to read a book But the words run away I wonder what they have to say I’m going shopping at the bipolar store I need an upgrade but I won’t find it there

Mental Health Upgrade
I can’t get up it hurts my **** My knees go out I start to weep I can’t stay awake I can’t go to sleep I’ve done what I can So now I count sheep My circuits are crossed I stay home all day With nothing to say I’m lost and alone So this is my life? But at what cost? My mental health is up for grabs I am bipolar and it plays tricks on me Sometime I fly more times I fall So this is my life I don’t want to play anymore I take my meds as I should Sometimes they work Sometimes no more Then I spiral down To dwell in my hell No one notices. No one to tell Don’t remember today But remember the past My apartment is not a house Nor is it a home So I am alone so alone Try to read a book But the words run away I wonder what they have to say I’m going shopping at the bipolar store I need an upgrade but I won’t find it there
