I thought the same thing. Wasn't sure if I was missing something lyrically

Not saying it's the most depressing song ever, but, well, how is it not depressing?

Lyrics:
I took a little journey to the unknown,
And I come back changed. I can feel it in my bones.
I fricked with forces that our eyes can't see.
Now the darkness got a hold on me.
Oh, the darkness got a hold on me.

How long, baby, have I been away?
Oh, it feels like ages though you say it's only days.
There ain't language for the things I've seen.
And the truth is stranger than my own worst dreams.
The truth is stranger than all my dreams.
Oh, the darkness got a hold on me.

I have seen what the darkness does.
Say goodbye to who I was.
I ain't never been away so long.
Don't look back them days are gone.
Follow me into the endless night.
I can bring your fears to life.
Show me yours and I'll show you mine.
Meet me in the woods tonight.

The truth is stranger than my own worst dreams.
Now the darkness got a hold on me.

I have seen what the darkness does.
Say goodbye to who I was.
I ain't never been away so long.
Don't look back them days are gone.
Follow me into the endless night.
I can bring your fears to life.
Show me yours and I'll show you mine.
Meet me in the woods tonight.

...Pretty dark, I'd say.

I find this song more comforting than sad. It puts life and so called "problems" in perspective.

George actually hated that song because he thought it was morbid and too depressing. It turned out to be his biggest hit.
