Depression My Friend
Depression
Depression strikes and knocks me down
For the rest of the day he follows me around
A lurking shadow
Sits on my shoulder
As heavy as a stone
But at least I am not alone
Depression is my friend
He tells me so
Because when I tell him to go away
He just insists on staying the rest of the day
He wont go
He likes to sit on my back
Lets me know what I lack
A comfy place to be
Surveying the world on high
Whilst my head droops
As my shoulders stoop
With the weight
But a friend he claims to be
But it doesn't seem that way to me
Because I feel miserable and run down
Whenever he is around
One day I will stand up
And he will fall
From his loft perch
But not today
Cos I'm feeling lonely left in the lurch
Maybe tomorrow
I will be stronger enough
Take an attitude and get tough
Then I will get rid of my faithful friend
And never ever let him lend
My shoulder as his friend!
