Depression (44 ratings) by Eddie Bobbington
Whats wrong with me?
Why cant I be happy?
Everytime I get close to someone
They leave
Ive been hurt by people
I foolishly believed
Is it something I said?
Is it something I did?
Am I meant to be alone?
Does everyone feel like this?
Can it ever be fixed?
Why cant I just say how I feel
So people can help me deal?
Why am I ashamed?
Am I the one to blame?
I just feel these things
I cant explain
Maybe I did something
I didnt mean to
Maybe if I just smile
I will be happy just like you
Im reaching out for something
Someone to tell me Im ok
I appear to fit in
But I know Im not the same
I need somebody to help me
Before its far to late
Im slipping further away
Somebody help me
I dont think Im safe
Theres these two girls
Kate and Amy
Who destroy my world
Im ugly, Im fat
I will never be able to change that
They point that out every day
My problems will never go away
Everythings happening all at once
My only friend is my parents gun
If I put my life to an end
Who will they pick on then?
The kid with braces?
People of minority races?
Next time you make fun of someone
You see stop and think
They may just be
Standing on the edge
Barely able to breathe
