It's hard when it stacks up. Long ago, someone I was close to left this place. He was one of my first friends. Someone who promised to protect me.
When he came back, he had forgotten me. It made me feel obsolete.
But all the things the people left me with . . . they're not gone. Because I'm still here. It's hard not to want more, but sometimes. This is what you have.
Take it from someone who had nothing. What you have now matters.

You're right! I didn't have a life to live for before. But now I do.

People will leave it. But people will come into it too.
