"Depression Olympics" is a powerful song by Kurt Holes that uses the metaphor of the Olympics to describe the experience of living with depression. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of the internal struggle, emphasizing the "numbing the ache", "hiding all the pain", and "fighting for survival" that are commonplace in battling depression. The song explores the cyclical nature of depression through repeated lines like "battling the darkness, searching for the light" and the "whispers in the silence" that only the individual truly understands. Ultimately, the song conveys a message of resilience and hope, suggesting that even when "medals made of masks" fall, there is a constant internal fight to "chase the light" and find healing.
