Stuck in depression's prison
Trying to break free
Life isn't what I envisioned
And sometimes gets the best of me
I walk through life
With a plastic smile
My heart bearing the rusty knife
Of pain shrouded in denial
I used to stand in wonder
Of the beauty all around me
Now I feel like I’m going under
In the perpetual sea of obscurity
God, please rescue me
Life isn’t a perfect bed of roses
It’s mostly just the thorns
My life decomposes
And I’m left all alone and forlorn
I walk through life
With imprisoned tears
An overflowing bottle of strife
Fills my heart and wakes my fears
I used to stand in wonder
Of the beauty all around me
Now I feel like I’m going under
In the perpetual sea of obscurity
God, please rescue me
