The Unsavoury truth

Jack Worrall

I bottle my feelings I bottle my thoughts,

But what’s the point of doing that

It’ll only kill you some more...

I sit here staring at the same four walls

The motivation is lost what have I got to get up for

People always try to help me out

But the voices in my head straight up lock them out

The depression is strong the fear is crippling

All I do is sit in my room longing for some feeling

What’s the point in this life I think?

I have nothing to live for nothing to give.

The tears they fall to the ground,

All I ever wish for is to have someone around,

How can I ever speak up when my mind won’t let me?

Best thing for you to do now is just forget me.

I’m moody I’m sad I feel so full of rage,

This depression is destroying me it’s like I’m trapped in a cage.

The point is we’re all human don’t be too quick to judge

Whether its race, colour or sexuality

Let’s all work together and bring back normality

Be kind to one another even if it’s a passing smile

That could make someone’s day even if it’s just for a little while...
