This Depression Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Baby, I've been down, but never this down
I've been lost, but never this lost

[Chorus]
This is my confession
I need your heart
In this depression
I need your heart

[Verse 2]
Baby, I've been low, but never this low
I’ve had my faith shaken but never hopeless

[Chorus]
This is my confession
I need your heart
In this depression
I need your heart

[Verse 3]
I haven't always been strong, but never felt so weak
All of my prayers, gone for nothing
I've been without love, but never forsaken
Now the morning sun, the morning sun is breaking

[Chorus]
This is my confession
I need your heart
In this depression
I need your heart
This is my confession
I need your heart
In this depression
I need your heart
This is my confession
I need your heart
In this depression
I need your heart

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
