[intro: jim carrey]
the one thing i’d like-
people talk about depression all the time
the difference between depression and sadness is
sadness is just, you know, from happenstance
whatever happened or didn’t happen for you
or, you know, grief or whatever it is
and depression is your body saying
“f-ck you, i don’t wanna be this character anymore
i don’t wanna hold up this, this avatar that you’ve created
the world is too much for me”
you know?
and, uh, so a friend of mine, who’s a great spiritual teacher
has a really good take, uh, his name is jeff foster
and he, uh, his take on it is that, uh, they should change-
you should think of the word “depressed” as “deep rest”

[verse 1]
daylight, on the edge of dyin’
on the edge of my bed
where i sit with this head
grinding t–th as i’m underneath
these layers of skin i keep shedding in disbelief

[pre-chorus 1]
yeah, sometimes i think i don’t just want it
but i need it
sometimes i feel like it’s my only way to feel it
thought i could weather any storm
my mind’s the tempest
convince myself i need this

[chorus]
deep rest
yes, convince myself i need this
deep rest
convince myself i need this

[verse 2]
time to myself to gather my thoughts
and jot them all down
every frown, every smile
meanwhile, lost friends & loves run around
i wonder if i live in their imaginary cities & towns

[pre-chorus 2]
yeah, a few might call this disrespectful
but i mean it:
your fake parade of “dead friends & loves”
could i lead it?
sometimes i feel it’s the only way to feel it
convince myself i need this

[chorus]
deep rest
yes, convince myself i need this
deep rest
convince myself i need this

[bridge]
oh
convince myself i need this
convince myself i need this
convince myself i need this

[chorus]
deep rest
yes, convince myself i need this
deep rest
convince myself i need this
oh, convince myself i need this
