But I Got


Well I tried to make it Sunday, but I got so damn depressed
That I set my sights on Monday and I got myself undressed…

This was an important song for me. 

When I was a kid, I was told that I was lazy, I was unmotivated, I was a quitter.  I believed that I was defective, a cosmic mistake that could never amount to anything.

The opening lyrics to this song was my first inkling that there were other people like me.

I didn't know what "depression" was, yet, but for the first time I knew I wasn't alone.  There were other people like me.

And that was huge.
