The Tiger Lillies - Depression lyrics

Bitter overbearing cruel Making each of us it's fool Ready to us devour Every minuite every hour With evil relish it will thrust Often turning us to dust How often depression does drive It's victims on to suicide Depression oh most evil guide On your corpse it takes pride A hungry beast it will devour You in your desperation hour And never will it let us go All opportunity will show Always there to you befriend Our faithful mistress till the end If you want the truth to know Never will she let us go Indefatigable it's course As over you it applies force Depression hovers over us How visciously she does thrust She beats us down once again Faithful mistress to the end
