Analysis of Depression O' Mine



Time's overlaping and everchanging
As is the world we're rearranging
If we continue to disturb Mother Earth
Father sky may choose for her rebirth
There's an uneasy feeling inside my chest
Like the volcano that refuses to rest
There's nowhere to go to get away from the pain
So I pray to our Father to bring the rain
Though I feel happy most of the time
Winter brings without fail this depression O' mine.
