It's funny how so many songs that are about heartbreak/lost love fit depression/my experiences/feelings.
For example ‘My Immortal' by Evanescence:
‘I'm so tired of being here, suppressed by all my childish fears...

Both of these take into account the repetitiveness of things and how I struggle with keeping sane (or feeling like I'm near to keeping sane). It's amazing how many songs there are out there that can be related to depression, even if they were meant to be about drugs or lost love.

What the community is saying...
my week for the most part was good
Posted 11/13 Comments (3)
This week has been full of ups and downs. But...
Sometimes when I am at my most depressed state...this is when I rediscover music.
Nine Inch Nail's "Hurt" is a song which resonates with me. You don't have to be a herion addict to see yourself in those words. The Johnny Cash version is absolutely heart breaking.
Ingrid Michaelson's song...Keep Breathing is a good one for a cathartic cry. Someone on youtube created visuals to go with this song...it will tear you up.
Here are the lyrics which pretty much sums up a good depression:
"The storm is coming but i don't mind.
People are dying, I close my blinds.
All that i know is I'm breathing now.
I want to change the world...instead i sleep.
I want to believe in more than you and me.
But all that i know is i'm breathing.
All i can do is keep breathing.
All we can do is keep breathing now.
All that i know is i'm breathing.
All i can do is keep breathing.
All we can do is keep breathing now.
All we can do is keep breathing
All we can do is keep breathing
All we can do is keep breathing
All we can do is keep breathing.
All we can do is keep breathing now."
