Underestimated Depression

Lost in my thoughts
the truth i try to hide
broken and shattered
i cry every damn night

whispers follow me
down the schools hall
stares burn into my skin
I'm slowly starting to fall

my depressions taking control
the angels no longer watch over me
and when i don't want to be alone
everyone just leaves me be

my addiction growing worse
a cut after another, just like that
blood runs down my arm, a tear down my cheek
...this isn't just an act

i can't live like this anymore
i pray everyday for redemption
before i loose my battle
to my underestimated depression

everyone thinks I'm acting
but i promise, I'm really not
all this pain and anger
...please just make it stop

they think I'm always kidding
and for that, these people will always be hated
so now let me be I'm dieing slowly
because my depression was underestimated
