I scribbled down what I needed to say Picked up the piece and threw it away Like there was nothing to say I've already lost my way I tried  supression of depression But I wasn't done with the lesson Can't I end the session I needed to tend to my depression I lost my self-expression Depression was taking possession The lesson was already in session The session of depression It takes my breath away It kills me everyday I struggle to find a way for happy to stay a permanent gray I've tried to pray But all they do is say fight through another day What's the delay? this is only foreplay Obey I never fought this hard But still I remain scarred

Depression
