My dear, do not be depressed
That your artwork doesn't sell
The entire world is going Hell
One day Earth's orbit
Will collide into the sun
And every human pretense
Will hilariously come undone
Why wait until then my dear?
My dear, do not be depressed
Do not be depressed
That the fireworks that blast
Above the lake last only seconds
And are rare like holiday time
When you yourself must clock in tomorrow
And drudge on despite your burning mind
Just because most lights shine sky-bound
Doesn't mean Heaven, too, must be elsewhere
Why surrender to gravity now?
Demand your paints to ooze
The color your face will surely one day lose
The day you sink into the ground
When light ice blue gives way to brown
Be proud of your insignificance
My dear, do not be depressed
Do not be depressed
When there are white houses where greed dines
Why wait one more hour
For your own selfishness to flower and shine?
On an earth where tulips bloom
In a universe where moons
Wax and wane despite your pain
My dear, refuse to have it any other way
My dear, forget the world today
Do not be depressed...
