[Verse 1]
Beating with life you promised life
Security, happiness
Unfortunate son cornered
Cowering in the pit of
Circling panes of glass that
Surround and reveal the ever present "It"

[Verse 2]
"It" is my move, my every look
Interpreting gestures
Informing others
What's undercover and
Lurking beneath my mask
Of this year's featured model
Is this too much?
Close your eyes
Care to look inside?

[Chorus]
I am I!
I am I!

[Bridge]
What may appear
Might easily be explained
But given the situation
Of info saturation
What you feel
Can never ever every
Go away
[Guitar Solo - Chris DeGarmo]

[Verse 3]
Steering perception? I am!
Inviting contradiction? I am!
It's my insistence
You keep your distance
From the glare behind my stare
So this is the way
The game is played
You can leave now...
But I think you'll stay

[Chorus]
I am I!
I am I!
I am I!
I am I!
I am I!

[Outro]
I am--
