Even Me
by: Mels

they don't hear me
but i don't know if i'm even talking
i'm trying
but why should they hear me
after i cried wolf for so long
i'm hurting
i'm crying
my head knows everything
but my heart knows nothing
i can't give anymore
i've done that for too long
my love was so strong
that it came out as hate
and now i have nothing left
only regret
and a bit of hope
hope in the God that i know can do anything
the God who is the only one who really hears me anymore
the God who can move mountains
the God who can change and renew things
even me.
