In my mind it's an ocean
My thoughts are the water
And I am a ship
When depression hits it's a storm
The waves toss my ship
Throwing me against the cliffs edge
And I am trapped between the rock and the crashing waves
But I have a few lighthouses along the cliffs edge
So sometimes I can see the light from the lighthouse
The storm does not stop because of the lighthouse
But when I see the light I can stay away from the edge
My ship still gets tossed around
But the damage is less
The lighthouse keeps my little ship from shrinking
From disappearing all together
Keeps me just far enough away from the edge that I don't sink or drown
