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
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
