my phone won't charge or be recognised by my computer

I left my phone on to charge overnight and woke up to it not being able to turn on. I have tried connecting it to my computer but it does not recognise it. I have cleaned out the charging port. The lock button does not work either can somebody help me please!

Use another cable and try charging again, using the Apple supplied charger.

Dead battery? My iPhone 5's battery is about gone. It acts weird some. You may just need a battery.
