Never Have I Ever

I’ve seen the news, so full of tragedy 

I’ve seen the news, so full of controversy 

I’ve heard rumors, of pain

I’ve heard rumors, of people hurting others

I’ve thought, of hurting myself

I’ve thought, of others hurting themselves 

I’ve hated all of it

None of it is who I want to be

I never thought this before 

I’ve been locked at home, watching death rates rise

I’ve been locked at home, watching the people try to be happy

I’ve seen numbers, much higher than they should be

I’ve seen numbers, much longer than should be okay

I’ve thought, of adding one more

I’ve thought, who would notice 1 single person

And it’s true nobody will ever truly remember you

Nobody counts the one digits

They never bother to remember the numbers

I’ve heard the music, telling of a love unknown

I’ve heard the music, talking of feeling alone

I’ve hid from my parents, my first love

I’ve hid from my parents, my most prominent thoughts

I’ve never seen, someone truly caring

I’ve never seen, a true friend

It’s never been easy

People are never who they seem

Maybe once there was good, but no longer

I’ve never seen, a truly happy person

I’ve never seen, someone kind for no reason

I’ve never felt, like I belong

I’ve never felt, like people could see the real me

I’ve never heard, a good rumor

I’ve never heard, a true secret

Feeling something is always so negative 

Seeing something truly good, never happens

Hearing of good in the world, will never over power the bad
