Hiden behind societys walls
We all fight a silent war
Our hearts and minds feel the ache
Yet we hide behind walls
Try not to break
They say It's not that bad
we have control
Though they don't know
How it hurts my soul
This wasn't our choice
But it's there
A deep angry voice
Whisperings secrets in our ears
Making us anxious
Displaying our fears
Though it may be better now
We need to dampen the stigma
We have to figure out how
Let’s break these walls
Let us breath
Let it all out
Let us grieve
If you see someone down
Lend a hand
We could fight it
If together we stand
Our illness is not a weakness
We must listen to our hearts
Open up
That's where the healing starts
