the message

there's a message deep within my bones

and haunts me, threatening to escape my lips

i want to tell you in the streets

and i want to explain it more inside

i'm sure you want to hear it

but sometimes i can't get over my own self, my own fear

sometimes i wish i had more confidence

but i want to tell you where i get this joy

and i want to tell you how i found this peace

because it's more than a self-help book

and it's more than just a three-step checklist

no, this message will change how you see things

this message will help your soul sing

i know i could talk about something else

maybe the weather or sports or even about you

but i know while we talk there'll be more on my mind

i know while we talk i'll want say something else

there's a message deep within my bones

and haunts me, threatening to escape my lips
