Have you ever cried yourself to sleep at night?
Have you ever drowned in your fears?
Do your thoughts ever hurt?
Are pills not enough?
When you're alone do you think : I wish i was someone else
Have you ever tried but continued to fail?
Do you wish you could take it all back?
Every bad thing you've ever said or done?
Was it fun?
Or was it a nightmare?
Do your dreams ever put you in a place where you can't get away?
Where you are trapped?
Angry?
Afraid?
Do you ever wish that your mind would stop playing tricks?
It says : You're fat, you're ugly, not worth love
Do you ever wish that there was a way to rise above?
To stop being afraid and blaming yourself?
To stop hating what you see in the mirror?
To see things clearer?
Have you ever wished that you could fade away?
Leaving behind all the false 'love' and true hate?
Have you ever wanted to be left alone only to find it makes it worse?
Have you ever thought: is my life a curse?
If you have I know how you feel.
Depression is a disease and it's very real.
It doesn't go away for all the idiots who say : get over it or hurting yourself is never the answer
The people who have it know...
That in an instant you can go from excited and happy to wanting to die
And every time you shed a tear
When nobody is there
When it seems like nobody cares
They know how it feels to be rejected
Neglected, and abused
How it feels to be afraid of yourself
And what it's like to wish for the end
But they also know that it's an everyday battle
And it really pisses me off when people say :
Hey are you okay? when there are tears running down my face
Or get over it.
And the worst one of all: stop being so dramatic, stop faking this
To the idiots of the world who don't understand
How would you feel if you got hit by a van and could never walk again,
And we said : get over it, or this is just a phase
Maybe some people don't agree but for me this is how it is
I take pity on people who don't understand,
But at the same time I'm glad they don't,
Because if they did...they'd cry too
