I Am Mine [Sept. 1st 2005] Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The selfish, they're all standing in line
Faithin' and hopin' to buy themselves time
Me, I figure, as each breath goes by
I only own my mind

[Verse 2]
North is to south what the clock is to time
There's east and there's west and there's everywhere life
I know I was born and I know that I'll die
The in-between is mine
I am mine

[Chorus 1]
And the feeling gets left behind
All the innocence, lost at one time
Significant behind the eyes
There's no need to hide
We're safe tonight

[Verse 3]
The ocean is full 'cause everyone's cryin'
The full moon is lookin' for friends at hightide
The sorrow grows bigger when the sorrow's denied
I only know my mind
I am mine
See Pearl Jam Live
Get tickets as low as $86



[Chorus 2]
And the meaning that gets left behind
All the innocents lost in one time
Significant, behind the eyes
There's no need to hide
We're safe tonight

[Chorus 3]
And the feelings get left behind
All the innocents broken with lies
Significance between the lines
We may need to hide...

And the meanings that get left behind
All the innocence, lost in one time
We're all different behind the eyes
There's no need to hide...
Yeah!

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
