Personal Depression



How Does it Feel
Does It Feel Bad
Do you understand
I am nearly mad

Faces drift in
And out of my view
Am I really talking to the real you

In this time of my personal depression
When my mind is in total recession
Everything is darker than it was yesterday
And yesterday
I
Looked
Into
HELL

How does HELL feel
It don't feel bad
It is quite groovy
If you are mad

Faces drift in
And out of my view
Am I really seeing
The real you

Oh take me to the dark side of life
Where everything's heavy and there ain't no light
Where my mind can run free in the deepening gloom
Allow me the luxury of
DOOM
