Depression
Black Flag · Damaged [1981]
Black Flag kicks!
These are the offical ones from the Cd jacket
~~~~Depression~~~~~~~~
Right here, all by myself
I ain't got no one else
The situation is bleeding me
There's no relief for a person like me
Depression's got a hold of me
Depression – I gotta break free
Depression's got a hold of me
Depression's gonna kill me
I ain't got no friends to call my own
I just sit here all alone
There's no girls that would touch me
I don't need your goddamn sympathy
Depression's got a hold of me
Depression – I gotta break free
Depression's got a hold of me
Depression's gonna kill me
Depression's got a hold of me
Depression – I gotta break free
Depression's got a hold of me
Depression's gonna kill me
These are the offical ones from the Cd jacket
~~~~Depression~~~~~~~~
Right here, all by myself
I ain't got no one else
The situation is bleeding me
There's no relief for a person like me
Depression's got a hold of me
Depression – I gotta break free
Depression's got a hold of me
Depression's gonna kill me
I ain't got no friends to call my own
I just sit here all alone
There's no girls that would touch me
I don't need your goddamn sympathy
Depression's got a hold of me
Depression – I gotta break free
Depression's got a hold of me
Depression's gonna kill me
Depression's got a hold of me
Depression – I gotta break free
Depression's got a hold of me
Depression's gonna kill me
