I am a person and I am strong
I see their worried glances
I hear their comments
I want to be their friend
I say "what the hell:"
and I try to go on
I am a person and I am strong

I am a woman and I am strong
I feel the emotions rising up
but I will control them
I want to cry, I want to scream
but I will keep going
I am a woman and I am strong

I am a feeling and I am in control
i thrive on the weak and the sad
they turn to their Prozac, their
shrinks and their love
I am a feeling and I am strong

I am depression
I come and I go
I make people angry, fretful and mad
I leave empty feelings and thoughts of suicide
I come with a vengeance and leave
with a curse
I am depression and I am strong
