The depression comes and spills around me
It flows over me and spreads throughout me
It comes crashing over my head like a tidal wave
It floods through my heart and trickles down my chest
The storm rages on and I cry out for the deep calm of the sea
There's darkness in my world right now
Engulfing my bleeding heart
But the tidal waves still come crashing and beating down my door
The pelting rain still raging on as I see a far off shore
I swim through the sticky darkness and cry out a scream of help
But the undertoe grabs and pulls me under as I give up my struggle
I see the waves crashing above me but I am trapped in the deep
Sea of Depression.
