The Messenger Lyrics

yes I could make home here in good time
but in good time is a gift
that long to be mine
that's fine

I'll seize the day
make lifers traveler work as messengers
with my pain
my pleasure
all will be

I will fear what tomorrow may take
stay blind to my future and fate
start my traveling now

feel this ????
first came that dream
to be seen
to know love
the world and all its stages

Now 25 I've made it it alive
and what a life
i have know
I'm gonna stop
never fully grown
remember

I will fear what tomorrow may take
stay blind to my future and fate
i wanna hear what the others may say
let only love lead the way
start my traveling now
traveling
I'm traveling
I'm traveling

I see the redwoods
the deserts
my brothers
my sisters
the music
the moment

i can never regret the cursed and blessed open road
open road
the open road
open road

open road

and all those fields
we remember
always
always
the open road

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

I'm fairly sure that it's ""I won't fear what tomorrow may take" and "I won't hear what the others may say"
