THANKFUL

THANKFUL

I'm thankful for the severe depression that destroys me everyday
I'm thankful for the low self esteem that makes the darkness always stay
I'm thankful for the anxiety that makes it hard to breathe
I'm thankful for the way it robs the joy of life for me
I'm thankful for the fact I have nothing to look forward to in life
I'm thankful because of who I am, I'll never have kids and a wife
No one wants to be around a broken human like this
And I often wonder why I even continue to exist.

YOU'LL NEVER UNDERSTAND

YOU’LL NEVER UNDERSTAND

You’ll never understand they way I think

Until you’ve been in my mind

And been pushed to the brink

And find nothing positive in everything you find

It’s easy to say: “You should do this!”

Or: “You should do that!”

When despair for you doesn’t exist

And that is a true fact

If you’ve never felt like garbage

And felt so low

And happiness is hard to harness

And every day is a blow

Then you’ll never understand

What I go through

I’m just a broken man

With nothing to look forward to.

I'VE ALWAYS CARED

I’VE ALWAYS CARED

I never stopped caring

Not even for a second

My heart’s on the sleeve I’m wearing

And the darkness inside would deaden

Only for you, because you are light

No matter what, I’ll always be there

And for you, against the world I would fight

Just to let you know that I care.
