depression 101 (in this life of mine)

in this life of mine,
I've learned one major lesson
nothing messes up an apartment
faster than depression
why wash the dishes?
they'll just get dirty once again
everything gets dirty
nothing is your friend
and I need to feel nothing
right about now
throw out the trash?
I don't know how
in this life of mine
in this life of mine

in this life of mine,
I have one major question
is there anything in life
that doesn't lead to depression
here's what you do
if you don't feel good
take a nice walk 
around the neighborhood
worry every worry
till you worry it though
and if you hurry
you can worry
about something new
in this life of mine
in this life of mine

         oh depression
         please explain
         you keep messing
         with my brain
         what exactly am I supposed to you
         when I'm locked and chained
         to you
         to you

in this life of mine
I keep hoping and guessing
to find a way out
and over depression
but I make 
this confession to you
nothing that 
I try to do
will clean the apartment
when instead
I'm spending all
my time in bed
but it won't matter
no one will care
this is not just self-pity
I swear

         oh depression
         please explain
         you keep messing
         with my brain
         what exactly am I supposed to you
         when I'm locked and chained
         to you
         to you
         when I'm locked and chained 
         to you
