Just want to be free!

Heh. Had a bout of depression come up a few nights ago, and methinks this came out as a result, from listening to one of the CDs my bros have burned.

I look to the future
The future always leads me to the past
And the past leads to memory…

Every day
Every night
I dream of times long gone by
Things I could have done,
Things I should have done…

Little regrets
Little hopes
My mind wanders through my memories…
It’s just like a sad disease!

The man who
Lives in the past is dead to the world and present,
Dead to the present, and you’re dead to the world!

My mind swims through a sea…
A sea of my own making, And I’ll drown…
If I can’t break free!

Memories sweeter than sugar…
Recollections of tears.
I can’t keep living like this anymore…
I just want to be free!

Sometimes I
Can’t help myself,
Then I’m lost for now…
But I
Can’t live like this…

I can’t live for
Now, if I keep living in the past!
I can only help myself,
And break the chains of my mind!

I refuse to die!
I will move on and leave what’s dead to die…
I will be free!

Memories sweeter than sugar…
Recollections of tears.
Noone could keep living on like this…
I just want to be free!

There was a final part to the song, but I can’t thik of what to write for it. Maybe later…

That sucks. You feel better now?

To be honest, I was out of that for quite a while now. I came up with this last night. I jsut hope it doesn’t suck too badly.

Depressions suck… I’ve had my share of 'em too…

But the song is really cool :slight_smile:

I like how it turns angry and determined at the end, it gives it a refreshing revolutionary flavor.

That’s how I got in he end really, so fitting.

Ah, what I’ve written when in the throes of depression… You’d be amazed at how much creative energy flows when you have negative thoughts flowing through your mind. Some of my better poems were a product of such times, as well as a number of my better scenes…
Thankfully, depression is no longer a problem. It’s a good thing to, or else I wouldn’t be here…
