HAVE YOU EVER

HAVE YOU EVER FELT DEPRESSED 
FOR NO REASON AT ALL,
JUST FEELING DOWN IN THE DUMPS 
AND UNABLE TO CRAWL.

HAVE YOU EVER FELT BETRAYED 
BY THE ONES YOU LOVED AND TRUST,
HAVE YOU EVER LIFT YOUR HANDS IN DISGUST 
AND FELT LIKE GIVING UP.

HAVE YOU EVER CRIED 
UNTIL THERE WERE NO MORE TEARS 
LEFT TO CRY,
HAVE YOU EVER CONTEMPLATED SUICIDE 
AND JUST WANTED TO DIE.

HAVE YOU EVER WONDERED,
WHY THIS WAS HAPPENING TO ME,
HAVE YOU EVER CLOSED YOUR EYES TO SLEEP 
BUT YOUR MIND CONTINUES TO WEEP.

HAVE YOU EVER LOST A DEAR OLD FRIEND,
HAVE YOU EVER WANTED TO LEAVE
BUT STAYED IN PRETENSE.

HAVE YOU EVER SAID SORRY 
KNOWING THAT YOU WERE RIGHT,
HAVE YOU EVER WONDERED,
IF YOU WILL MAKE IT THROUGH THE NIGHT.

HAVE YOU EVER!

WILFORD BARKER.

Hey.. after all, we are human.
