Feeling down & out, needing a new sprout.
On a minute to minute basis,
I'm searching for a new oasis.

I'm wrestling with my demons,
Because they're always scheming.

Now this bad feeling comes over me.
Zaps all of my fun and energy.

No spring, no recoil, or elastic.
Want to do something that would be drastic.

Right now I feel like a miniscule speck.
My life seems it's closer to a train wreck.

Down most of the time, just can't rise above.
You can't always save what you truly love.

Take my mind off these thoughts so tragic.
Don't do something considered drastic.

What's happened to me? I'm sick you see.
What to do for know? Cease the blues somehow.

Reach out soon and give someone a call.
Before you go taking that giant fall.

I'm not the kind to act dramatic.
Don't tempt me or think I'm sarcastic.

All I really want is a big hug.
Is that so bad? Love conquer this thug.
