Cover art for I Run For Life lyrics by Melissa Etheridge

In an interview she mentioned the 3 different verses. One of a woman who beat her battle, the second being her own personal fight with "the darkness", and the third as an inspiration to those who are just beginning their battle.

This song has personal meaning to me because a friend was going through chemo, and we both found comfort in this song. Beautiful work, Melissa, as always.
