Píseň: Message To Myself

Interpret:
Melissa Etheridge
Album:
The Awakening
I'm sending out a message to myself
So that when I hear it on the radio
I will know that I am fine,
I will know that I am loved.


I warned myself of 
the blackness in my chest
The razors in my heart 
would never rest
It's funny how you find 
just what you seek
Love is what you get 
when love is what you speak


I'm sending out a message to myself
So that when I hear it on the radio
I will know that I am fine,
I will know that I am loved.


I made every choice 
along the way
Each day I spent in hell 
I chose to stay
It's funny what you fear 
can make you weak
Truth is what you get 
when truth is what you speak


I'm sending out a message to myself
So that when I hear it on the radio
I will know that I am fine,
I will know that I am loved.


So if you are listening 
I am just passing through
You can take some for yourself
cause it works that way too


Sha la la la la la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la la la la
I will know that I am fine,
I will know that I am loved.


I'm sending out a message to myself
So that when I hear it on the radio
I will know that I am fine,
I will know that I am loved.


I'm sending out a message to myself
So that when I hear it on the radio
I will know that I am fine,
I will know that I am loved.
