You’re Mine

“I actually wrote this song for Lena. It’s something that I had not done, really, on any record, and it’s probably our first attempt at, dare I say, a pseudo kind of love song.  It’s lyrically not as dark as you’ve come to expect from us.”

I’ve begun to realize
That I’m better when I am with you
You delivered me from the pain
In my life

Easy now to recognize
All the misery I have been through
It was beating me to submission
‘Till the day you arrived
Suddenly I felt alive
Strength I had lost was revived
And building inside
And we both know why

‘Cause you’re mine
I knew I could be whole
If you were mine
I’ll vanquish any foe
Because you’re mine

Been betrayed too many times
Didn’t think I would ever recover
Let it haunt me for the rest of my life
Then you opened up my eyes
And you helped me rediscover
Were the one who resurrected
A man who had died
Your power, it gave me new life
Made me reborn and refined
Rebuilt from inside
And we both know why

‘Cause you’re mine
I knew I could be whole
If you were mine
I’ll vanquish any foe
Because you’re mine

I never thought I would ever escape
At times I wanted to die
Feared that it all was just a little too late
Thought that I wouldn’t survive
I let you in and let go of the hate
My heart recovered
Now I owe you a debt that I can never repay
I still believe
‘Cause you’re mine

I’m burning inside
And we both know why

‘Cause you’re mine
I knew I could be whole
If you were mine
I’ll vanquish any foe
Because you’re mine
I can regain control
Because you’re mine
I can take over the world
Because you’re mine
