Have You Ever
Have you ever been were I’ve been,
In a world so dark an gray?
Were no one in the world can hear you,
So many often stray.
I’ve been the girl on the ground,
with a busted lip an two black eyes.
My boyfriend says he loves me,
But something says he lies.
I find the razor quickly,
Cause it feels good across my skin.
No one sees the scars,
Cause they only look at him.
Nothing ever changes,
as time an time goes by.
People think I’m happy,
But I’m just really high.
So now I’m in the corner,
Asking God to save me.
Cause I just took a test,
And it says I have a baby.
So after the good news,
I decide I need a change,
I no longer need the needle,
To cover up my pain.
God has sent an angel,
To save me like I asked,
Have you ever been were I’ve been,
An tried to cover up your past?
