Give Me a Chance

Turn me on.

Can't you hear me?

I'm screaming for help,

Screaming for hope,

Screaming for love.

But you can't hear me.

After all, you did push the mute button.

My throat is scratched raw

From screaming at you.

But you ignore me,

And go on your daily life.

I'm so frustrated with you.

So I yell louder.

I'm yelling for mercy,

Yelling for peace,

Yelling for forgiveness.

But you can never hear me.

You never even see me.

Because you turned the mute button on.

And you turned me off.

You've forgotten that I was there.

Right next to you as you're on the internet,

Washing the dishes,

Doing the laundry.

As I was there, now pleading.

I'm pleading for you to notice me.

For you to listen to me.

I'm just pleading for you.
