lyrics

The early hours, the black dog slinks
into consciousness, denying sleep
Pervading greyness, stuporforic fuge
impossible rationale, eyes weep.

Disassociation from the world
mental castration, a lithium state
Zombie shuffle, unable to wake
Death in life the chemical fate.

Another Blue Monday, the weight of the world
upon your shoulders, feeling through pain
Feeling such guilt at your part in the plan
you inwardly rage, repeat the day again.

A worthless existence, the smothering embrace
rational dead end, your soul must break
Irritation fed by ignorant words
hollow platitudes, too much to take.

Another Blue Monday and your heart will break
neurological tiredness, it’s too much to take
Don’t know the answer to escape the pain
you take the pills keeping you restrained.

Trapped inside this cerebral prison
Silent scream inside your mind
Inwardly rage at the despair
Rattle mental chains that bind.

Twisted thoughts hold you down
Confined in this mental cell
Confusion reigns inside your head
Unable to articulate who could you tell?

Sinking in a black pool of despair
In the safety this self built cell
As the waters now close over
Is there no one here to help?

Someone to hold you and understand
Heal the pain felt inside
Help exorcise the demons within
A hand to hold and be a guide

Bleeding out your self is fading
Feeling sanity fade away
Desperately reaching for some kind of help
To get through another Blue Monday.
