SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder)

Skirmish: Anadiplosis - start where... (@dudachris)Liner Notes
#skirmish This was super fun. Like doing a puzzle. I even made the beginning and end of the song match. Lucky for me there was sun today.
Lyrics
Inside I'm covered with clouds Clouds that are blocking my sun Sun is what gives me my power Power combines me as one
One two three counting the seasons Seasons of winters attacking Attacking my thoughts and my reason Reason for sleeping and lacking
Lacking energy Sad sad sad Sad sad sad Energy lacking
Lacking of light stirs my sorrow Sorrow and sadness combines Combines to create my tomorrow Tomorrow it's too far behind
Behind me a shadow is nearing Nearing my eyes with its fraying Fraying my sight with its bearing Bearing my soul to be praying
Praying the daylight will brighten Brighten my heart and my life Life won't be anxious or frightened Frightened won't hold me inside
Inside I'm sad sad sad Oooooo Sad sad sad Oooooo I'm sad inside
Comments
I like rhythm of the words, as well as how the story could work on multiple levels. It's a relatable description, but it also almost sounds like a superhero or supernatural sort of story.
Would matter how a vocalist/musician bring this to life; I lack energy myself & need to sleep; xoxo
Really effective take on the prompt. Your lyric has a nice rhythm to it.
