Living in A world of jealousy and hate
Fear of what I'll do or what I'll create
Doing things wrong when I think they
are right
That's the way I live each day and
night.
Depressed and unsure if I'm right or wrong
Can't make me happy when nights are long
I don't trust me and I don't trust you
And no one can tell me just what to do.
When up I'm as happy as I can be
But when I am down you wouldn't know me
I feel I am sinking and I might drown
Don't try to talk for I hear no sound.
The blackness is as real as the darkest day
And yet they tell me it will go away
The things I see may not be there
And if they are I would not care.
Sunshine in my life may help a lot
But shadows is all I have ever got
Medication will get me through this strife
Not much pleasure in this old life.
I pray someday I'll be as normal as you
Kindness and understanding will see me
through
I need your help, will you be there?
With love and understanding because you care.
