Analysis of Have You Ever Wondered?
Tasha Pass 1981 (Alabama)
Have you ever wondered why you're still around? Or why people always put you down? Have you wondered why you feel locked up inside and why all of your feelings always seem to hide? Do you know why you cry? Or do you want to know why you can't just die? Maybe you have a purpose to stay alive. Maybe there is something you have to achieve, some reason you have to strive. Whatever reason there is for living here, whatever the reason is for shedding another tear, you will always have someone near. People may not show it, and you may not know it, but if you do go, you will hurt someone. Some problems aren't so simple to solve, and you can't always talk to everyone involved. You have a purpose here, so dry up that last tear, and try to stay alive. Someone wants you to survive.
