“DEPRESSION IN D MINOR”
(T. Lear)

Darkness
I feel it coming on
Blackness encloses me
I feel it in my brain
Dark all around me
Can’t take the pain
Can’t take the pressure
Take it all away

[BRIDGE]
The Darkness has grasped a hold of my soul
The Blackness envelops me, won’t let me go
The Darkness is moving, is growing again
I feel this feeling beginning again

[CHORUS]
Darkness is, darkness is
Taking a hold of me
Darkness is, darkness is
Taking control
Darkness is, darkness is
Gripping and clutching me
Darkness, this darkness it
Won’t let me go

I can’t feel
What I want to feel
I only feel pain

I can’t think
My mind is a blank sheet
Darkness, this darkness
It drives me insane!

Let the pain wash over me
Like a well-worn blanket of woe
Let the feelings drip from me
Like a wound which will not heal
Feel it now
Inside my mind
There’s nothing at all in this world
But pain

[BRIDGE]

[CHORUS]

Isolation
Oscillation
Rumination
Darkness nation!

My mind strikes back
The Darkness is spreading
It washes my thoughts and my feelings away
Darkness I know
It’s become a part of me
Nothing will ever be close to me now

The pain renews
I feel it again
But this time it sings out
Pain without end

[BRIDGE]

[CHORUS]

[CHORUS]

[spoken]
The Darkness has found me again...
