Anti-depression

God is falling into insanity
The anti-depression medicine 
Is screaming for attention
The paranoia is all I know

I"m looking for something more
My thighs were made for scars
Suicidal thoughts have me thinking 
That cutting myself is my savior from them 

Please don't let me fall into the thoughts
Holy paper burning away from me
The demons are heavier than you think

God is falling into insanity
The anti-depression medicine 
Is screaming for attention
Please save me before I hit rock-bottom

 I"m looking for something more
Then suicidal thoughts and love 
They both kill in the same way
Lonely is a company of both

Please don't let me fall into the thoughts
Holy paper burning away from me
The demons are heavier than you think

This anti-depression medicine  
Isn't helping now it's calling for a body
Why would you do this to me?
