Remember Me?

To a friend... And the child said:



Do you remember who i am?

we used to be so close...

i used to be the one

the one that you relied on

the one you told everything to

What changed in your life?

why'd you throw it all away?

you left me feeling worthless,

like i'm not enough,

like i couldn't keep you safe.

and maybe you were too far gone,

but i had hope and believed

that maybe if you let me in

life would get better...

but it was spoken, and i failed

i couldn't make it all okay

now i don't even know myself...

How could you remember me...

To HIS child... And HE said:



Do you remember who I am?

we used to be so close...

I used to be the one

The One that you relied on

The One you told everything to

What changed in your life?

why'd you throw it all away?

I know he left you feeling worthless

but I'm enough

I can keep you safe

and just know you're never too far gone

if you just hope and you believe

my love, if you just let Me in,

life would get better.

and I can't tell you that you'll never fall

but I'll let you know, without fail

that I'll catch you, I'll be with you

I'll let you know who you are.

You'll find yourself in Me.

I'm not the God of your past,

I still heal, Remember Me?
