Depression Monster 4.0

**Verse 1:** Feeling like a monster's in my closet, Tiptoeing 'round, opening, trying to pause it, But the beast is in my mind, eating sense away, Ravaging my thoughts, night and day. **Verse 2:** There's a ledge, got me feeling like I might jump, No edge to see, just darkness in a lump, Suddenly drowning, clutching at the waves, But the straws I grab burn, leaving me in a daze. **Chorus:** Stabbed in the back, no knife in sight, Tidal waves sweep my mind, day and night, Restless soul, thinking won’t find peace, In this battle, my mind’s the only beast. **Verse 3:** Lonely in a crowd, not alone but so lost, In society’s gaze, I’m paying the cost, See my hands, but my feet are gone, See my feet, but my hands move on. **Chorus:** Stabbed in the back, no knife in sight, Tidal waves sweep my mind, day and night, Restless soul, thinking won’t find peace, In this battle, my mind’s the only beast. **Bridge:** Should it come to pass? My comeuppance, Does sin have a weight? Heavy without substance, Trudging through thoughts, demons in my fort, Suppressing fire, hiding in my court. **Verse 4:** Will it be? Clutching hope so tight, Airy and thin, but my heart feels right, Days go by, I learn to cope, **Verse 4:** Will it be? Clutching hope so tight, Airy and thin, but my heart feels right, Days go by, I learn to cope, With the end in sight, I walk this road of hope. **Chorus:** Stabbed in the back, no knife in sight, Tidal waves sweep my mind, day and night, Restless soul, thinking won’t find peace, In this battle, my mind’s the only beast. **Outro:** Muster up my coat, journey on with hope, Through the darkest nights, learning to cope, Every step, a battle, but I won’t mope, In this endless fight, I find my scope.
