My heart is weary, the light I cannot see My suffering seems so hard to bear My emptiness yawning stretching in front of me Feels like this is forever's destiny I don't want to be resigned to this fate For I know of brighter days Days of laughter, days of cheer Days when my fears were never near Hidden behind a dark boundary There dared not approach me Cause my moment was happy and blithe And I never thought depression would have me in sight But you see at the least worry Dark clouds gathered and made me scurry Hiding behind my closed door I made sure none would enter And so I hid, behind my excuse And when I turned there was none but me My emptiness a yawning road All stretched out like a barren field Gone were my friends Gone were those days When laughter and joy filled my ways I could not muster the courage to call Death was knocking at my door I thought I could stand tall But before long, I was crushed below The weight of my adversary unknown Drowning out in this sojourn Grappling with sanity Is this me, could it be? Cause yesterday I was happy and free Today I am waiting for that moment When the doors will open again And the light streams steadily Cause in this darkness my doors are closed The door **** the mind eyes cannot *****

Weary heart!
My heart is weary, the light I cannot see My suffering seems so hard to bear My emptiness yawning stretching in front of me Feels like this is forever's destiny I don't want to be resigned to this fate For I know of brighter days Days of laughter, days of cheer Days when my fears were never near Hidden behind a dark boundary There dared not approach me Cause my moment was happy and blithe And I never thought depression would have me in sight But you see at the least worry Dark clouds gathered and made me scurry Hiding behind my closed door I made sure none would enter And so I hid, behind my excuse And when I turned there was none but me My emptiness a yawning road All stretched out like a barren field Gone were my friends Gone were those days When laughter and joy filled my ways I could not muster the courage to call Death was knocking at my door I thought I could stand tall But before long, I was crushed below The weight of my adversary unknown Drowning out in this sojourn Grappling with sanity Is this me, could it be? Cause yesterday I was happy and free Today I am waiting for that moment When the doors will open again And the light streams steadily Cause in this darkness my doors are closed The door **** the mind eyes cannot *****
