Gotta try to still be happy,
have to be someone i'm not,
the rising tide is trying to drown me,
and it comes in quicker then I can swim.
Crazy thoughts are coming to my brain,
Everyone's disbelief in me,
is driving me insane.
Depression -
Can't have that - oh no,
that's just me 'attention-seeking'.
Sick of trying to everyone prove,
that i'm better - and smarter -
then they first thought,
they have finally crushed me,
with their sharp black hooves.
