I seem happy right?
You see no cuts on my wrists
Only the smile on my lips
You hear me laugh, you see me smile
But did you take time to look in my eyes?
Did you see the emptiness, the darkness?
Did you check my hips?
Darling, if you only opened your eyes, you could see
I was dying inside.
I'm scared of all those voices inside my head
They scream to hell
They could bring me to death
I can't let them win
But I'm just so tired
So tired of this life
So tired to fight
I just want to let go
Close my eyes
Take a deep breath
and sink into unconsciousness
after all
wasn't I born to die?
Depression is like drowning except everyone around you is breathing
Friendship is a lasting treasure, for it can bring so much pleasure.
A smile can make you feel so good, When feeling down it does you good.
When once that spirits begin to lift, You have given a personal gift.
The depression or nervousness gradually goes, Soon a cheerful mood is born, No longer do you feel shattered and torn, At least for a while your spirits lift.
And you can give this simple gift.
People will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.
