Depression hurts when you grow old <br />And life has passed you by <br />No more dreams to think about <br />Or even wishes to come true <br /> <br />You lose a friend and then another and <br />There's no past to talk about <br />No laughter, only tears to shed <br />That others cannot see <br /> <br />Depression hurts no matter what you try <br />It breaks you down till nothing matters <br />Life doesn't matter either <br />You come or go, who cares <br /> <br />No one that really cares too much <br />No friend thats left to tell your troubles to <br />No love that puts its arms around you <br />And holds you close. <br /> <br />Why stay and sit in this old chair <br />With nothing to do day after day <br />Smoke cigarettes, why not <br />Its too late now to care <br /> <br />Goodbye to this life I would gladly say <br />Why God won't take me now <br />I do not know because he knows I want to go <br />Home with others that I love <br /> <br />There's more up there than down here <br />More love from friends in heaven <br />No friends do I count down here <br />Depression hurts, it hurts down deep inside <br /> <br />It breaks your heart and destroys your mind <br />Your thoughts are eratic and blown <br />Until the thoughts that used to come <br />Are gone forever, depression hurts<br /><br />jJO CAREY<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/depression-hurts/
