It's Been Too Long
Dear Depression,
You’ve overstayed your welcome
Unannounced you showed up, years ago
And since then all I’ve felt is oppression.
I try and scream for help
But you cover my mouth,
Tell me everything will be alright.
But it’s not.
I’ve put up with you long enough
I believe, old friend,
The time to depart has come.
I would say it was nice to see you,
But that would be a lie.
So I guess this is goodbye.
