they say depression is a joke

i say "wait until it laughs at your face"

you'll be crying like there's no tomorrow

you'll be too pained to even feel anything

you'll go starving but won't eat

you'll waste away slowly, without even knowing it

everything around you will feel dull, lifeless, and worthless

you'll give it up

you'll let it all go

you'll want to stop breathing
