Sometimes, I sit up at night
And I think to myself, "This isn't right."
I lay down and close my eyes
And think about all the good times.
She's tossing and turning
Restless, the midnight oil burning.
The nightmares are real
And it makes her wanna not feel.
Depression is real
It makes you numb, makes you seal
Your true feelings up inside.
Never a moment of peace,
Drops you crying to your knees
"Is this just some disease?"
Lift you up and throw you down
Leaves you broken on the ground.
No desire for the life
That she dreamed of when it was light.
Left alone in the dark
Even his love seems so very stark.
Night sweats stain the sheets
She wakes up and begins to weep.
Every day is the same
Hopeless thoughts are all that fill her brain.
Depression is real
It makes you numb, makes you seal
Your true feelings up inside.
Never a moment of peace,
Drops you crying to your knees
"Is this just some disease?"
Lift you up and throw you down
Leaves you broken on the ground.
Here, take this pill
Don't worry about how your body feels.
It'll brighten some of your day
Don't worry about the weight you'll gain.
Your face may feel a lil weird
But don't worry, cause you'll still be here.
If you're really feeling sad
The side effects can't truly be all that bad.
Depression is real
It makes you numb, makes you seal
Your true feelings up inside.
Never a moment of peace,
Drops you crying to your knees
"Is this just some disease?"
Lift you up and throw you down
Leaves you broken on the ground.
I sit, and I stare
And I wonder if she's even there.
My heart it breaks
As I watch every smile that she fakes.
I wish I could help
But all I can do is let her know I know how it felt.
She longs to be happy
But all she knows to feel is crappy.
Depression is real
It makes you numb, makes you seal
Your true feelings up inside.
Never a moment of peace,
Drops you crying to your knees
"Is this just some disease?"
Lift you up and throw you down
Leaves you broken on the ground.
