There's not much to feel proud of
When sorrow's in control
As it tears into my heart
And eats into my soul

I have had my highs and lows
But lately, I've been low
How fast can I flee the past?
When progress has been slow

With a past that still haunts me
Reminds me of my strife
Misery enveloped me
And I hated my life

Designate me a color
Of a cold and dark hue
I feel bad when I am sad
And I am feeling blue

Color me the darkest blue
My depression is strong
Something in me isn't right
I've been like this too long

I'm dark blue, that how I feel
When all my hope is gone
In the darkness of the night
I yearn to see the dawn

Yellow is the color of
The light that is the sun
Color me this brighter shade
Of happiness and fun

Schizophrenia had me
Believing I'd stay blue
I've been sad, but now I'm glad
To know I'll make it through

Through the darkness and the fear
That can come from within
I'll move on, my sorrow's gone
The healing can begin

All the damage that was done
The horrors that I've faced
It's like they never happened
My blues have been erased
