  • Paint it Black by The Rolling Stones is another one I’ve found relatable, the anxiety and depression that unfortunately follows autism around.

    I've seen people turn their heads
    And quickly look away
    Like a newborn baby
    It just happens everyday
    I look inside myself
    And see my heart is black
    I see my red door
    I must have it painted black
    Maybe then, I'll fade away
    And not have to face the facts
    It's not easy facing up
    When your whole world is black
