Struggling With The Blues
An uneasiness permeated through my soul
With anxiety and depression familiar foes
keeping me from everything
and the joy that life can bring
I was reluctant to admit
That I suffered quite a bit
And felt trapped in the shadows
With all my terrible internal battles
I didn\'t know where to turn
To escape the fire that licked and burned
There inside the depths of me
Giving me such agony
I grew tired of being brave
As I faced the demons each day
And prayed for them to leave my mind
And let the good things stay behind
A friend then gave me strength
As I teetered at the brink
And helped me to be strong and brave
As I faced those darkest days
I knew all I had endured
And that I’d gone through hell for sure
But God helped me clearly see
He had sent the friend to me
Since that day I\'ve been happy
With many friends old and sappy
And have come to appreciate
All the friends I have made
