Depression can take over a person's soul
It latches on, and it won't let go
You struggle with pain with all of your might
To the point that you want to give up the fight
Depression can take over a person's mind
Controlling your thoughts, which once were kind
You wonder how you let it get that way
It's like it just appeared one day
Depression can take over a person's strength
Making all of your decisions of any length
You ache and wish it would disappear
It makes your heart tremble with fear
Depression can take over a person's life
Causing heartache like a stabbing knife
Sometimes I wonder while I am in sorrow
Is it really worth living on for tomorrow?
