Misinterpretation

Depression is when you want to cry 

'Cause you're hurting on the inside

You're Mentally in pain 

Some may even say 

Insane

But that does not discribe this mental paian 

This mental pain can't be qut into words 

'Cause it really hurts 

I cant get this into words 

It really does hurt 

It makes me want to cry

'Cause it cant be discribed

And when I try 

I feel like I'm being choked 

This isn't a joke 

Then I try to write

But it makes me want to cry 

'Cause I actually try 

I try so hard 

By the end of teh day 

I just wnat to lay 

In bed for the rest of the day 

I don't get much sleep

 I don't like to eat 

Sometimes I don't want to deal 

But I push through 

Like I need to 

Sometimes I wish i was gone

'Cause its not so fun

When you have to push yourself 

To go and tell

But no one actually gives a hell 

Then you start keeping to yourself

You never tell anybody else

The thing is if you're like me

You tend to keep 

Other peoples worries 

And that's not gonna work 

'Cause its gonna make it worse 

It doesn't really help 

'Cause you keep to yourslef 

And you don't tell anybody else 

it just makes it worse 

'Cause you don't want to convers 

Then you go and tell again

This time they say they understand 

They just don't know how to help

And they go to somebody else

This person knows your pain 

'Cause they've gone through the same 

They know there's no cure 

For this mental pain 

And they are always gonna be there for you to talk to

'Cause they understand you 

They know what you're going through 

At least tehy say they do 

But it helps you 

 

Yall i wrote this because some people don't understand
