lyrics

I'm overcoming depression, one step at a time,
I'm fighting through the pain, and finding peace of mind,
I'm learning to love myself, and see the light once more,
I'm overcoming depression, and I won't be held down

I'll keep fighting, I won't give in
I'll find my way out, I'll start again
I'll leave this storm, this hurricane
And find a rainbow, after the rain.
Sometimes I feel like I'm drowning
But I know I won't be held down
I'll find my way back to solid ground
And leave my troubles behind

A maze of thoughts, a tangled mess
A sea of tears, I can't confess
A broken heart, a shattered soul
A black hole, I can't control

I'm overcoming depression, one step at a time,
I'm fighting through the pain, and finding peace of mind,
I'm learning to love myself, and see the light once more,
I'm overcoming depression, and I won't be held down

The sun has set, and darkness reigns
Clouds in my mind, a hurricane
The weight of the world, crushing down
A never ending cycle, round and round

Happiness.. Where did you go?
I waited so long for your arrival..
You came and went, In the blink of an eye.
Just before the next breath.
Without a rhyme or reason.
Not one last kiss..

Without closure & peace of mind..
We have no ground left to stand on.
Just a shattered foundation -
And thoughts of what if..
And why not.. Why?

For the love of me
I couldn't find my way out,
The weight of the world
was just too much to bear,
I felt like giving up
like there was no way out,
But then I found the strength to start climbing,..

I'm overcoming depression, one step at a time,
I'm fighting through the pain, and finding peace of mind,
I'm learning to love myself, and see the light once more,
I'm overcoming depression, and I won't be held down anymore.

The journey's not easy, and there are times I stumble,
But I keep pushing forward, and refuse to crumble,
I'm finding joy in the little things, and taking care of myself,
I'm opening up to others, and asking for help.

It's not always a straight line, this road to recovery,
There are ups and downs, and moments of uncertainty,
But I know that with time, and patience, and care,
I'll keep making progress, and find my way there.

II'm overcoming depression, one step at a time,
I'm fighting through the pain, and finding peace of mind,
I'm learning to love myself, and see the light once more,
I'm overcoming depression, and I won't be held down anymore.

This one is about my daughter,..

“I had a rose, a precious bloom
But I let it wither away too soon
A misunderstanding, a moment's mistake
And now my heart, it's about to break

I had a bird, a song to sing
But I clipped its wings, a foolish thing
A misunderstanding, a moment's doubt
And now my world, it's inside out

I wish I could turn back time
And mend the pieces, of a shattered mind
I wish I could take back what I said
And bring my daughter, back from the dead

I'll keep her memory, deep in my heart
And never let go, of what tore us apart
I'll learn to forgive, and find a new start
And hope one day, we'll never be apart.”
