Depression is real
It falters the meek
It crushes the heart
And strong turns to weak

It dims all your light
And changes your vision
It weakens your soul
Through a gaping incision

And Burrows inside
And plays on your feeling
Puts things out of reach
And raises the ceiling

It's a weight while your swimming
And treading for life
It injects you with pain
And burden and strife

Everyone's watching
Do they see what you feel
Do they know that you're wounded
And trying to heal

You have you get up
And take two more breaths
Though the weight that you feel
Is like ten thousand deaths

You're better than this
Get up and keep walking
Stand up and shout
Don't sit and keep talking

You've cried all your tears
Today is the day
Stand up and shine
And light up the way

Bury this shit
Be done with it for good
And fire up the rage
That's under the hood

Stand up and fight
And get over your pain
Go walk through the storm
And dance in it's rain

Let go of your hate
And leave it behind
And conquer this demon
Inside your own mind
