Video: “A Message To Myself” – Roo Panes

Going to get out of here, so many voices fill this place; Society is in my solitude.  Oh find me the corner of this great space!  If I’d heard every word, if I’d read every line upon the shelf, I’d still need a message to myself.

Searching for the elements, the roots of a fundamental love; Been reaching out to find my solid ground, ’cause I’ve never known peace lest from above.  So up in the clear, I’ll find the voice that I hold dear, and I’ll send a message to myself.
