This is a song called My Illness.  It's about the thoughts that go through the mind of someone with depression.  It's not something that can be fixed.  It's not like being sad.  The main thing you need is just someone beside you to help you through it.

Better recording to come...


My Illness written by Richard & Cathlyn Cornwell 2009

Another day of uncertainty
Today will I fly or will my soul die?
'Cause I don't know what makes these emotions flow
Is it the chemicals in my brain or the devil on my soul?

Chorus: 
I wanna shake this feeling
I wanna leave my baggage at the door
Drop to my knees, I'm screaming.
Take this weight from me
I can't carry it anymore


Dangerous thoughts invade my mind
Convincing myself it's a futile fight
But I'm scared if I do, what waits on the other side?
And I dread the tears of those who I leave behind

Chorus

I want you to know there's someone who loves you
And I need you to know that your life has value
Don't do what's running through your mind 
When you try to sleep at night
Something worth living for
One thing worth living for is life
And I'll be there for you to help you through on your journey
Choose life.
