This road I walk so dark and long
I have lost my way, do not know where I belong
The pain I feel, it cuts me deep
I am numb, confused, lacking sleep
I do not know who I am or who to be
I have lost that person who once was me
I have shut myself out and cry and cry
I have no answers I do not know why
I try to consloe the hurt within
I don't know how I don't know where to begin
I reach out to others to help me through
They do their best, there's only so much they can do
It's up to me I will try to press through
This depression darkens all that I do
I sit and ponder what is wrong with me?
Why I cannot get beyond this and set myself free?
I have lost interest in life that is all around
The darkness has me gagged and bound.
There's no light , no hope, just so much dread
The depression lies tells me I should be dead.
There is no hope just pain and depair
I constantly worry and just don't care.
This darkness that has blinded me
An uphill journey no light I can see.
Do I give up or keep moving on?
This painful journey is so very long
Do I keep trying to climb to find some light?
Can I find the strength to win the fight?
I become weary and I am lost again
The darkness takes hold and settles in
The pain pulls me back and won't let go
It has a grip on me and a very tight hold.
This depression is heavy and the pain pierces me
It's a journey of hills and so many valleys
If I continue to walk and do not give in
Perhaps the darkness will turn to light again
I will trudge on to climb that hill
When I crest that hill and look below
The road is split which way do I go?
I will take the path that is not worn
I will take a chance, I'll carry on
I do not know what lies ahead for me
But now I have light no darkness I see
The depression has finally set me free
