Cycle In, Cycle Out I’m visited by depression, He’s become my old time friend. He just shows up on my door step, I never know just when. I’ll be really happy, Having a real great day. Then depression comes aknockin’, My blue skies turn to gray. It’s time to run and hide then, To set myself apart. Before depression kicks the door in, And shoves his dagger in my heart. I don’t understand depression, Or what he’s all about, I just know he’s always been there, Cycle in and cycle out. Tomorrow I’m gonna fool him, I’ll hide behind the door. Then strangle that gloomy bastard, And welcome him no more. And when he comes tomorrow, Imagine his suprise. When I jump out of hiding, And look him in the eyes. When filled with love and sunshine, A smile upon my face, I end his ghostly visits, Return him to his place. But today we have to visit, He’ll drag me down, no doubt. He may have cycled in for this day, But tomorrow… he cycles out…….forever. Marv Hardin 06/24/00 |
