about

'Messenger' touches on the idea of the unconscious connection among humanity.

lyrics

MESSENGER

A mob is making noise outside
A promise made, no need to hide
We’re friends today

Stand tall, salute the flag
My uniform is a tattered rag
I stand away

You see ships arrive from far away
You try to stay alive, send them away

I am a messenger
I am not alone

See the woman in her rags
A metal cart with all her bags
And you turn away

I saw a shadow in the glass
And heard a scream that didn’t last
You laughed it all away

The edge is sharpened now, so cut away
Our eyes stare at the ground, all led astray

But, I am a messenger
And I am not alone

Touch me, watch me
Touch me, watch me
Disappear

Show me, tell me
Show me, tell me
What you hear

I am a messenger
And I am not alone

I am a messenger
And I am not alone
