Not Another Depression Day


Today is a day to be depressed,

why I have no idea.

Apparently I missed something,

something that no one else did.

Maybe it's the fact that it's cloudy and cold,

maybe it's the fact that they are stuck in school,

why I have no idea.

Everyone seems to be depressed,

bitching about every little thing,

mopping around like it was the end of the world,

why I don't know.

Today is the day everyone is depressed,

everyone it seems except me.


Screw everyone else,

I won't let them bring me down.

They can bitch and mop all they want,

I don't really care.

I'll be happy and smile all day long,

and I won't give a shit about what they say.

They won't bring me down with all their shit,

I'll be myself and do what I want.


While others think today is dark and gray,

I see sunshine and bright sky.

Today is a day for others to be depressed,

but for me it's a day to dance, smile, and be happy.
