Depressions (talk about it?)

[Willy_for_Boobies]

Depression, darkness in mind.
Depression, nothing seems kind.

Even good feelings have a bittersweet taste;
feel other feelings and all seems like waste.
Every feeling is with sadness in touch;
simple bad things even hurt you so much.

You aviod big emotions, who fly high will fall deep;
but you miss this "adventure", no one dream did you keep.
"I will never get happy!" so you think and will shout;
but as mostly before you cry quiet and not loud.

Shielding your heart, what could hurt you preclude.
All other people from your thaughts you exclude.
Saying: "it's fine, .. all goes well, .. it is good."
No one of the "others" see's the cause of your mood.

Hopeless, alone at a deep well's ground
you seeing and feeling only darkness around.
Worthless your life, no hope who did stay;
Leaving this all, taking this easy way.

....
...
..

So true, every word.

Do you see that little girl crying,

Or do you see the woman standing tall?

Can you tell that inside she is dying,

Or do you fail to see beyond her walls?

Do you see that little boy trying,

To hide behind the façade of a man?

Can you tell that inside he is dying,

And if you could, would you lend a hand?

We all build walls to keep out the world,

Not letting others see what lies beyond.

We are all just little boys and girls,

Trying to find the strength to carry on.

oh Willie you should post this auf Deutsche as well, I am sure it would give the right Angst and pathos that the English translation lacks
