Deprivation...

V1:
How many times have you felt discouraged?
Looking at your life
Wondering if it's worth it...
Feeling worthless
Fear floating to the surface
Nobody's perfect when they behind closed curtains.
How many times have you woke up feeling miserable?
Wondering why your mental state don't make sense to you
How many times have they told you it's all right
When they don't understand what you're going through day and night
How many times have you felt alienated?
Frustrated...
Even unappreciated
Unable to take it
So you cry in isolation
Telling yourself to stay strong and be patient...
How much time will it take to get better?
And get that weight lifted off your chest forever
When everything in life seems like a disaster
We sit back looking for an answer...
V2:
I was leading down a path for years that had me struggling
Waking up everyday to anxiety rushing in
Heavy drugs and drinking had my life sinking
Unable to decipher the shit that I was thinking
Till one day my depression gravitated
I gained weight, drank excessively
And was aggravated
I didn't feel like myself anymore
Rocking "The Doors"
Gripping the bottle like never before
And worst of all man...
I neglected my music
I just took the bottle and began to abuse it
At this time my mind was so damn restless
On anti-depressants
The stress was endless...
I wore a mask for many years
Shed many tears behind closed doors in fear
In that world it was just me there
I didn't realize other people felt that scared
But that's not the case
And I know that now
Don't ever be to proud to speak your thoughts out loud
Cause I know what it's like to go to war with yourself
There ain't no shame to reach out
And ask someone for help...
