Got the idea from the song Welcome To My Life by Simple Plan. Let me know what you think.

Have You Ever:
Have you ever been kicked when you were already down in the dirt?
Ever cried all your tears till u swam in your shirt?
Ever harmed yourself in what others called a self destructive way?
Ever got addicted to pain that you were frozen for days?
Ever felt you were being watched?
But with eyes of complete shame?
Because you're not perfect and you're the only one to blame
Ever felt the world was out to get you?
Like you lived in a hole?
That got bigger and deeper as you set out for your goals?
Goals you couldn't complete and you cried as you failed
Ever thought you were brave but felt bad as you bailed?
Ever felt you was strong but broke down cause you're weak
Ever cried while blasting music at nights without sleep
Couldn't look in the mirror because your self esteem was so low
Ever wanted to runaway but had nowhere to go
Ever been stabbed in the heart until it bleed with your pride?
Ever felt so overwhelmed because your life was all lies?
Ever had to fake a smile because your life was on the line?
Ever saved two friends from being buried deep down?
With the bugs and the dirt?
Ever felt nobody cared so bad that it hurt?
Ever felt so lonely,
like you were your only best friend?
Ever felt you had your own language that no one could comprehend?
Ever wanted to die so badly that you tried once or twice?
Ever felt like this?
Welcome to my life
