This is one of Linkin Park's gentler songs, the last track on A Thousand Suns and one of my favorites.
In my hospital work I encounter many broken people. Some of them need a lot of help and support for their lives to work on even the most basic levels. They come to the hospital when something falls apart and the pieces must be put back together.
Sometimes a kind word or soft touch of the hand is all someone needs to get back on the path. In such moments, perhaps we serve as one of those 'angel voices' for a fellow human in need.Given the song title, we'll give this one to Mercury, aligned with Venus, in the service of the Sun. Enjoy.
"The Messenger” by Linkin Park from the album A Thousand Suns

When you feel you're alone
Cut off from this cruel world
Your instincts telling you to run
Listen to your heart
Those angel voices
They'll sing to you, they'll be your guide back home
When life leaves us blind
Loves keeps us kind
It keeps us kind
When you've suffered enough
And your spirit is breaking
You're growing desperate from the fight
Remember you're loved
And you always will be
This melody will bring you right back home
When life leaves us blind
Love keeps us kind
When life leaves us blind
Love keeps us kind
It keeps us kind
