Friday Night Depression

Its Friday, and a long week ends,
And a lovely weekend begins,
The rain has stopped coming down,
And there is sunshine all around,
The sky is bright and shining too -
“So why do I feel so very blue?”

There are too many things to do in my life,
And I really just don’t have the time
To do the things that I need to get done
So I can play out in the sun.
I am feeling overwhelmed
And I could really use some help.

But I know no matter what happens
I will never shake this depression.
It lives forever in my soul
Where it’s taken root and been let grow
So let it grow, I really don’t care
I could have a worse life I’m sure.

Its Friday, and a weekend starts
Full of sorrow in my heart of hearts.
In a sky of blue the sun will shine,
But I can’t see it for I am blind
To the beauty that is all around,
I look down and stare at the ground.

Its Friday, and my heart does weep
For those I love who are asleep.
Oh, how I long to follow them
My heart keeps asking the question “When?”
“Why am I left here all alone
When those I love have already gone?”
