Why am I still depressed?
Why do I need that other place
Just to get through the day?
I need someone, anyone,
To hold me close
Let me know it will all be OK.
I see something coming,
I don't know what
But I know it won't be good
I can't be alone when it happens
My mind spins with the weight
Of possibilities and responsibilities
It jumps from one fear, to one hope,
To memories, to sadness
And I can't press pause.
Turn up the music
Drown it out
Comes back
Make it louder
Burn my prayer
Let it out
Turn to smoke
And blow away
