"Don't Give Up"
Don't give up for the fear of your past,
Reach for a future, and friendships that last.
There's someone to help you and guide you by the hand,
More times than ever, someone understands.
You may feel lonely, misguided, and misunderstood,
But there are people around you to help if they could.
Don't lock your feelings deep down inside,
Everyone hurts, there's nothing to hide.
When you're all alone and your pain just gets stronger,
Try holding on just a little bit longer.
If you feel there's no reason to keep holding on,
Remember that nothing is gained when you're gone.
Sit back, relax, take a deep breath and sigh,
For there's always a friend to help you get by.
