I have always argued that PJ was never "grunge", that they were classified that falsely because of where they came frome and their debut song, but in actuality they have something deeper, more mature than most "grunge" artists, and their song catalogue reflects it, look at the maturity of the songe from No Code on till now... none of the other "grunge" bands have ever shown that depth... sure PJ had the look and the raw emotion, but they also had a level of intelect and insight that none of the others had... on top of that I've always felt that PJ had a higher caliber musician than most other "grunge" bands (not meant to start a flame war, just an opinion)...

I think the meaning is simple, youare who you make yourself, noone can make you be something you are not... nothing is certain in life except birth and death, it's what you choose to do that makes you who you are... the only thing we own is ourselfs, everything else is temporary, hence "I only own my mind" and "I only know my mind" noone can tell you what you feel, or what to think, "we're all different behind the eyes, there's no need to hide" says don't be ashamed of who you are, everyone is different, noone is better... just my 2cents |
