Stephen Holland - Depression

Stephen Holland - Depression

Depression is a parasite br Which eats away your consciousness br Your knowledge can be erudite br Yet the despair pit is bottomless br br Ignores your own prestige or wealth br Stalks rich and poor impartially br While questioning your mental health br Which fuels the cruel despondency br br It haunts the living both young and old br Its gloom pervades not only friends br It kills when it is uncontrolled br A cancer to the bitter end br br There is no cure by alcohol br Though try we might for that impasse br Our life’s court is judgemental br We’re charged guilty, as one, en masse br br If you’ve not suffered from this disease br We tell you without disrespect br Please save us from your ‘expertise’ br Accept the cause of self neglect br br So we strive for life’s great cure br And we might think our cause sublime br But one things absolutely sure br The hand which trumps ‘the blues’ is timebr br Stephen Hollandbr br
