    Depression (Long)

    In a world so cold
    Where nothing is never what it seems
    The darkness hides away the sun
    And more keeps coming undone
    Depression is falling over everyone
    The forced smiles is what runs
    Aside from the government
    Insulting little ones

    We are the almighty country!
    Nothing can harm us
    As they say, grinding their teeth
    Ignoring the cries for help
    From people on the streets;
    Trying to subside that their world,
    Is crumbling at their feet

    So as you see
    The nightmares that were only meant for the unconscious soul
    They're becoming real
    And it's time for people to fear

    The new President elect
    Doesn't know what's coming
    As our country is falling
    Into the depths of Hell
    Deeper and deeper do we fall
    As we ask for a lending hand;
    The depression grows greater
    Its time to freak
    When you see Mommy and Daddy scrapping their plates for meat

    People in their big Mercedes Benz
    Are bound to find out, to what it's like
    To make ends meat
    Drowning in debt, more people fall
    The loss of jobs; and the hopes of young
    Depression grows, until how long?

    The government is playing it off
    As its just a time
    When it's just a small economy fall
    Illegal immigrants escaping to this place
    Who the hell hit them so hard in the face?

    Because even without them
    This country will fall
    And it will break the hearts of millions
    Subsiding for the fact
    Rent is way past due
    And the money to be made is all illegal too
    So tell me please, whats the point
    To escape to this country;
    Even though theres some more freedom
    What's the point where there's tax for everything?
    A smile on a person faces, No you still have to pay
    A bit of hope in a persons heart, No you still have to pay

    So explain to me please,
    Why escape to this country?
    'Cause all you do is pay
    For every, little thing
    The almighty country
    Is taking a big fall
    Worse fall than to the depths of Hell
    Where smoke will in-trap in the lungs of everyone
    Depression; All knew it was coming
    Just didn't know how soon

    In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.

    Franz Kafka (1883-1924) Czech writer.
