Have You

Have you ever felt so lonely
Or had your spirit broken down?
Have you ever felt like giving up
Just packing up and leaving town?

Have you ever felt you don’t deserve
To ever laugh and smile again?
Have you ever felt you don’t belong
That there’s no place you fit in?

Have you ever cried yourself to sleep
And woke with tears still on your face?
Have you ever stared at the stars at night
And wished you were with them in space?

Have you ever wanted to belong so bad
That you hide the hurt deep inside?
Have you ever watched as others had fun
While you felt inside you had died?

Have you ever wanted to live again
To fly like a bird that is free?
Have you ever thought if you want it enough
Then maybe one day it could be?
