What it's like to be the Depressed me


What it’s like to be the Depressed me

 

What it’s like to be the Depressed me?

It’s hell, you see

Covid-19, it’s affecting us all

None of us wanted to take the fall

But for us people with messed up minds, it’s even worse

It’s like a curse

My Depression had come back, you see

And that’s something no-one wants to be

When you’re Depressed, the happier, motivated self you once knew, you can say goodbye to

It’s a disease, not meant to please

A version of yourself you don’t ever wanna be, trust me

You see, mine all started back in 2008 when I lost my best friend

We said we would be together ‘til the end

But then she decided she didn’t want anymore of this life, so she said goodbye

For a while I felt I was left high and dry

I was so shocked I couldn’t even cry 

But it did make me stronger in the end, farewell, Sandi, my friend

What it’s like to be the Depressed me
