Second chances are more than what you had
It's also about what you did bad
What you regret and what you could take back
What hurts and what makes you mad
I wish i had someone that cared
I used to get bullied and everyone would just stare
I thought about self harming but i couldn't share
I wasn't being selfish i was always just scared
Everything went unshared ...
I wished my family were here
I prayed every night of each year
When i prayed they felt near
I knew they weren't there
I always ask god where can i get to them
"Where?'
I wish i didn't suffer alone
I just wanted to feel safe in my own home
I tried and i tried
It never felt real
I wanted be someone else
That's all i could feel
I was so numb
Numb to the pain
Numb to everything
All the way to the vain
All i want to say is don't suffer alone
Get some help even it doesn't feel right
you will be happy its known
