3 I's

rise above

my lips are shakin' my nails are bit off
been a month since i've heard myself talk
all the advantage this life's got on me
picture a cup in the middle of the sea
and i fight back in my mind
never lets me be right
i got memories i got shit
so much it don't show
oh i walked the line when you held me in that night
i walked the line when you held my hand that night
an empty shells seem so easy to crack
got all these questions don't know who i could even ask
so i'll just lie alone and wait for the dream
where i'm not ugly and your lookin' at me
and i stare you back
oh blue eyes, i've seen it
if just once i could feel love
oh stare back at me, yeah..
but i walked the line when you held me in that night
oh i walked the line when you held my hand that night
oh i walked the line when you held me close that night
i paid the price never held you in real life
my lips are shakin'
i shut and locked the front door
no way in or out
i turned and walked the hallway
and pulled the curtains down
i knelt and emptied the mouth
of every plug around
but nothing's sound
oh.. nothing's sound
i'd stay here where my last step left me
ignored all my rounds
soon i was seeing visions,
and cracks along the walls
they were upside down
i swallow my words to keep from lying
i swallow my fist just to keep from biting... biting, biting
i swallowed my breath and went deep, i was diving, diving
i surfaced when all of my being was enlightened
now...i'm
i'm in hiding, yeah
i'm in hiding, yeah yeah
i'm in hiding
it's been about three days now since i've been aground
no longer overwhelmed and it seems so simple now
it's funny when things change so much
it's all a state of mind
i swallowed my words to keep from lying
i swallowed my fist just to keep from biting... biting, biting
i swallowed my breath and went deep, i was diving, i was diving
i surfaced and all of my being was enlightened
now i'm
i'm in hiding, yeah
i'm in hiding, yeah yeah
i'm in hiding
i'm in hiding, yeah yeah
i'm in hiding, yeah
i'm in hiding...
i will light the match this mornin', so i won't be alone
watch as she lies silent, for soon light will be gone
i will stand arms outstretched, pretend i'm free to roam
i will make my way, through, one more day in hell...
how much difference does it make
how much difference does it make...
i will hold the candle till it burns up my arm
i'll keep takin' punches until their will grows tired
i will stare the sun down until my eyes go blind
hey i won't change direction, and i won't change my mind
how much difference does it make
how much difference does it make..
how much difference...
i'll swallow poison, until i grow immune
i will scream my lungs out till it fills this room
how much difference
how much difference
how much difference does it make
how much difference does it make...

3 nice songs there rise!

CranMalReign

For my g/f, the three I's are: Insignificance, Indifference, and Immortality... and that's only because she doesn't know which song has which title, but loves all 3.

{[Pearl_Jam}]

I Got Shit, In Hiding and Indifference right?

terminal velocity

i think a better choice would have been i'm open, i got shit, and then in hiding. those three songs are a trilogy. at least i think so.
