Im down
Almost out
Im begging
Crying out without answers and without acceptance
I need help
But noone will answer my calls
I need help
but none will come
I see people in need of help as I am
But how can help if I can't help myself
I can't think that it's over
I have too much on me to deal with that too
I am neglected
I am extremely down but no yet out
And so close to giving in
If I can find a way out
I can save them
I can help us all
But I am still caught in the abyss of depression
Struggling to find to shut out the blindness
The blindness of people that believe that depression is insanity
For they are wrong
If they could only see how detrimental it is to a persons health
They would stop their laughing and their ignorance
They would stop what they are doing
They would help
An they would help
Oh why Oh why
Why won't they help
