this is how I describe depression

It's 3 am and I'm still not asleep
Old memories and bad thoughts still find a way to creep
I sit here and wonder why I haven't just giving in
It's a battle against myself and there's no way I'll win
It welcomes me with a familiar feeling
Almost as if it's not my life that it's stealing
Barging right into my nightmares and making them worse
Pretty soon I'll catch a ride inside of a hearse
Sometimes I call for help as if there is anyone who can save me
But there isn't anyone that's how it's been and that's how it always will be
My mind is a pool and there is no shallow end
My head is below surface but I'm unable to apprehend
My mind is broken and my heart's the assailant
I crumble to dust and the walls of my own depression swallow me up like an inhalent
