She Sleeps All Day

Depression can leave you bedridden

I.

She sleeps all day.

She sleeps all night.

Wasting away

all her chances

to improve her way. 

II.

Cluttered room.

Cluttered house.

Wasting away

all her chances 

to improve her way

III.

Call it laziness.

Call it sickness.

Her life on hold

to the malaise 

she’s in. 

IV.

So she sleeps all day

and sleeps all night.

Nothing done

as she wastes away,

notto improve her way.
