The Pink Floyd have written a lot of theme tunes for those of us with depression. My top two:

Time  
\*Every year is getting shorter  
Never seem to find the time  
Plans that either come to nought  
Or half a page of scribbled lines  
Hanging on in quiet desparation is the English way  
The time is gone  
The song is over  
Thought I’d something more to say  
\*

Sorrow  
_The sweet smell of a great sorrow lies over the land  
Plumes of smoke rise and merge into the leaden sky:  
A man lies and dreams of green fields and rivers,  
But awakes to a morning with no reason for waking_

**Cue “She’s Not There” (my favorite song by the Zombies)**
