I recently started working a full time overnight job. While there are some upsides to working nights, there are many, many downsides. While I have gotten pretty adept at handling my own seasonal depression over the years, my strange new schedule has made my depression manifest in new and exciting ways. Thankfully I still have my mechanisms and avenues for mental well-being, but this new manifestation of depression makes me feel...crazy.

Anyway, I tried to capture how I feel in this song. It was a lot of fun challenging myself both lyrically and harmonically in the writing. But when it came time to play and sing the song....it also made me go a little crazy. So I think I succeeded in capturing my own feelings.

Oh I feel crazy This month is making me crazy Unfamiliarity, I feel the disparity Familial parity, and all despair to me And it's making me oh so crazy

Depression is always the same But not this year, I guess, not today Yeah we're trying something new Thanks brain, what did I do to you? Awake all night, but not the day Sad in the night, sad in the day Night and day, night and day Deny thy dry eye by nigh night Away may pray stay stray gray day Yeah I feel crazy

Bedtime's at noon Why is bedtime at noon? My dull persona, brimful of groan, a window drop zone, it all sucks just so much And it's making me oh so crazy

Depression is always the same But not this year, apparently, not today Yeah we're trying something new Thanks brain, what did I do to you? Awake all night, but not the day Sad in the night, sad in the day Night and day, night and day Deny thy dry eye by nigh night Away may pray stay stray gray day Yeah I feel crazy

February will end February will come again But I will live, laugh, love, and live again
