unwanted

We all want something to believe in
Something to put all ourselves into
All of us want to be wanted,
I just want to be wanted again.
I remember the time when i was envied,
for many things, you see,
I had parents that were good to me,
i had the family others would die for,
I was on the winning side of this war.
Now it seems like I'm all alone,
No one cares when or if i come home,
Wrapped up in their lives, too busy for me,
and i wonder if they would trade places with me.
DOn't get me wrong,
my family is always there, they want me always near,
and honestly, that's all that should really matter.
But for some reason i need justification
of what?
that i'm worth something to someone,
that someone cares enough to worry about me,
other than my parents that is, because after all
they have to love me, we're family.
So I want to be wanted agian,
know that i'm needed,
and see that i'm still loved.
