Black Days; Blue Nights--Living with depression


This is a site to support others who are depressed : Don't give up the fight.

Life it seems, will fade away
drifting further everyday
getting lost within myself
nothing matters no one else
I have lost the will to live
simply nothing more to give
there is nothing left for me
need the end to set me free

infinite_sadness

Things aren't what they used to be
missing one inside of me
deathly lost, this can't be real
cannot stand this hell I feel
emptiness is filling me
to the point of agony
Growing darkness taking dawn
I was me but now he's gone

( excerpt from "Fade to Black" written by J. Hetfield and L. Ulrich ) ( graphic by Andrew )
