Bi-Polar


Manic has me acting crazy

Going nonstop

Getting things accomplished

With no desire to stop

My mouth goes a mile a minute

I just can't stop talking

Pacing back and forth

I just can't stop walking

It's scary when I get this way

But there's nothing I can do

It's just a part of who I am

Just like there's parts of you

 

Depression has me down

Don't feel like doing anything

Just let me lay on the couch

Doing absolutely nothing

I don't want to talk to you

Or anybody else

I don't want to be around you

Nothing's gonna help

I hate it when I get this way

I just want to get better

It's just a part of who I am

Both of these together
