You have no reason to be depressed
or so everyone say with plastered smiles and vacant eyes
While you may hide your emotions I was taught to express mine
To not hide behind flagrant lies
you may think my life is fine
but I\'m dying inside
every day like I\'m sitting in doctors office
the sink won\'t stop dripping
litesbkeep flickering
minutes keep ticking
and the people pass without checking inside
when someone does come in
be a doctor
nurse or family
l am an inscect
unworthy of attention
undeserving of praise
to hard shelled to listen to criticism
and to selfish to change
for the people who pass
but why should I change
for those who won\'t give me the time of day
for the people that say they love me
but see me as less than
because of my illness
and when they do offer a hand
it\'s out of their own selfish obligations
but I don\'t need it
because I have no reason to be depressed.
