WORDS OF THE DEAD

(DEPRESSION)

You don't have to be sad on your own.

Up a rung, down two
Up a rung, down a few
Up a rung, trip and fall
Down to the bottom, where I belong

Falling down, hit my head
My legs heavy as lead
I lie there
On my bed

Leave my room
Legs start to shake
Back to bed
Lie awake

Up a rung, down a few
Up a rung, trip and fall
Down to the bottom, where I belong

Falling down
Hit my head
My legs heavy as lead
I lie there
On my bed

Leave my room
Legs start to shake
Back to bed, lie awake

Up a rung, down a few
Up a rung, trip and fall
down to the bottom where I belong

Up a rung, up another
Up a rung, keep on going
Up a rung, I'm not slowing, down
Up to the top, stand atop, new ground
