Add depression with pure sadness
Include life and extract all happenings of bliss
A dash of deceit
A teaspoon of daily struggle
And two cups of emotional pain
A tablespoon of heartache
A pinch of overwhelming stress
And let it sit till color seems plain
Stir with the magical power of hatred
And don't forget to add all of your fears
This is a recipe we all know all to well
The ingredients of tears.
