His to forget But he can't, he can't. Out of bed and he dreams in the shower. She's standing naked, He's apologizing. Reaches for her and the water turns red. Got woken up to be Burned, burned again. Go it alone. You got it, so it goes. Got his knees to his face, she can't take it any other way. On the street he's walking wounded. Doesn't smile for the child at play. Thoughts of suicide and alleviation. Anything to get his heart off of Nicole. Go it alone. You got it so it goes. Got his knees to his face...he can't take it for another day. Yeah, yeah. Wide awake and he shakes in a panic. Never woke up alone Ever before. Had his woman long as he can remember. Tries to forget, but he can't... he can't.... Lost Dogs PEARL JAM SONGBOOK

Amongst The Waves


Artist: Pearl Jam Composer: Pearl Jam What used to be a house of cards Has turned into a reservoir Saved the tears that were waterfalling Lets go swim tonight, darling & Once outside the undertow Just you & me & nothing more If not for love I would be drowning Ive seen it work both ways, but I am up Riding high amongst the waves I can feel Like I Have a soul that has been saved I can feel like I Put away my early grave Gotta say it now Better loud Than too late Remember back the early days When you were young & thus amazed Suddenly the channel changed The first time you saw blood Cut to later, now youre strong Youve bled yourself, the wounds are gone Its rare then where is nothing wrong Survived & youre amongst the fittest Love aint love until you give it up Riding hi amongst the waves I can feel like I Have a soul that has been saved I can see the light Coming through the clouds in rays Gotta say it now Better loud than too late

Army Reserve
Artist: Pearl Jam Composer: Vedder/D. Echols How long must she stand Before the ground, it gives way To an endless fall She can feel this War on her face Stars on her pillow Folding in darkness Begging for slumber I'm not blind I can see it coming Looks like lightning In my child's eye I'm not frantic I can feel it coming Violently shakes My body Her son's slanted Always giving her The sideways eye An empty chair where dad sits How loud can silence get? And mom, she reassures To contain him But it's becoming a lie She tells herself And everyone else Father is risking His life for our freedoms I'm not blind I can see it coming Looks like lightning In my childs eye I'm not frantic I can feel it coming Darling you'll save me If you save yourself Pearl Jam PEARL JAM SONGBOOK

Around The Bend


Artist: Pearl Jam Composer: Vedder I am wishing you a well Mind at peace within your cell Covers up, I cast you off I'll be watching as you breathe I lie still, you move, I send You,... off around the bend I hold your head deep in my arms My fingertips they close your eyes Off you dream, my little child There's a sun around the bend There's a sun around the bend All the evenings close like this All these moments that I've missed Please forgive me, won't you, dear? Please forgive and let me share... With... you... around the bend You're an angel when you sleep How I want your soul to keep On and on around the bend No Code PEARL JAM SONGBOOK

Bee Girl
Artist: Pearl Jam Composer: Ament/Vedder Bee girl, you're gonna die. You don't wanna be famous, you wanna be shy. Do your dances alone in your room. Becoming a star will become your doom. Bee Girl, be a girl. Bee Girl, be a girl. You know time is long, and life is short. Begin to live while you still can. Believe in nothing, believe me, Those who can be trusted can change their mind. When the anxious is the present, unwrap your gifts, take your time. Everything you imagine needn't be stuck in your mind. Bee Girl, be a girl. Bee Girl, be a girl. Lost Dogs

Pretends to sleep, as he looks her over She lies and says she's in love with him, can't find a better man... She dreams in color, she dreams in red, can't find a better man... Can't find a better man Can't find a better man Ohh... Talkin' to herself, there's no one else who needs to know... She tells herself, oh... Memories back when she was bold and strong And waiting for the world to come along... Swears she knew it, now she swears he's gone She lies and says she's in love with him, can't find a better man... She dreams in color, she dreams in red, can't find a better man... She lies and says she still loves him, can't find a better man... She dreams in color, she dreams in red, can't find a better man... Can't find a better man Can't find a better man She loved him, yeah...she don't want to leave this way She needs him, yeah...that's why she'll be back again Can't find a better man (can't find a better man) Can't find a better man (can't find a better man) Can't find a better man (can't find a better man) Can't find a better...man...

Oh, the pictures have all been washed in black, tattooed Everything... I take a walk outside I'm surrounded by some kids at play I can feel their laughter, so why do I sear Oh, and twisted thoughts that spin round my head I'm spinning, oh, I'm spinning How quick the sun can, drop away And now my bitter hands cradle broken glass Of what was everything All the pictures have all been washed in black, tattooed everything... All the love gone bad turned my world to black Tattooed all I see, all that I am, all I will be...yeah... Uh huh...uh huh...ooh... I know someday you'll have a beautiful life, I know you'll be a star In somebody else's sky, but why, why, why Can't it be, can't it be mine Ten PEARL JAM SONGBOOK

Like sugar, the guests are so refined, (look like melting m and ms) A confidence man, but why so beleaguered?

I don't think they're that dumb Do I join them? Looks like that's the one I got bugs on my skin Tickle my nausea I let it happen again They're always takin' over I see they surround me, I see... See them deciding my fate Oh, that which was once...was once up to me...

Dead Man Walking

The hallways are all mocking me. What I've become they're all mocking me. I'm a dead man walking. A dead man walking. A dead man walking. I'm a dead man walking. Dead man walking. Dead man walking.

Force of Nature
Artist: Pearl Jam Composer: Pearl Jam Understand shes a force of nature Contraband hiding deep inside her soul Exorcising her will to lose control She lets go A common man, he dont stand a chance, no Wonderland pulling Alice in the hole No way to save someone who won't take the rope And just lets go One man stands the edge of the ocean A beacon on dry land Eyes upon the horizon In the dark before the dawn Hurricane has the trade winds blowing A gale force shaking windows in the storm Shipwreck on the rock that he calls home With one light on Somewhere theres a siren singing A song only he hears All the strength that you might think Would disappear,.. Resolving One man stands alone, Awaiting For her to come home Eyes upon the horizon In dark before the darkness meets the dawn. Makes me ache,... Makes me shake,... Is it so wrong to think that love can keep us safe? Last I saw, he was out there waiting A silhouette in the black light, full moon glow In the sand there he stands upon the shore Forevermore Somewhere theres a siren singing A song only he hears All the strength that you might think Would disappear, resolving One man stands along, Awaiting For her to come home Eyes are closed,.. You cannot know But his heart dont seem to roam.

PEARL JAM SONGBOOKI Am Mine


Artist: Pearl Jam Composer: Vedder The selfish, they're all standing in line Faithing and hoping to buy themselves time Me, I figure as each breath goes by I only own my mind The 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 And the feeling, it gets left behind All the innocence lost at one time Significant, behind the eyes There's no need to hide... We're safe tonight The ocean is full 'cause everyone's crying The full moon is looking for friends at high tide The sorrow grows bigger when the sorrow's denied I only know my mind I am mine And the meaning, it gets left behind All the innocents lost at one time Significant, behind the eyes There's no need to hide... We're safe tonight And the feelings that 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 innocents lost at one time We're all different behind the eyes There's no need to hide Riot Act PEARL JAM SONGBOOK

I'm Open
Artist: Pearl Jam Composer: Vedder/Irons A man lies in his bed, in a room with no door He waits hoping for a presence, something, anything, to enter After spending half his life searching, he still felt as blank As the ceiling at which he's staring He's alive, but feels absolutely nothing So, is he? When he was six he believed that the moon overhead followed him By nine he had deciphered the illusion, trading magic for fact No trade-backs... So this is what it's like to be an adult If he only knew now what he knew then... I'm open I'm open Come in Come in Come in Come in I'm open I'm open Come in Come in Come in Come in Lying sideways atop crumpled sheets and no covers He decides to dream... Dream up a new self... for himself No Code PEARL JAM SONGBOOK

Insignificance

Like a ball that's spinning. Bombs,... dropping down.... Overhead,... underground... It's instilled...to wanna live. Bombs,... dropping down,... Please forgive,..our hometown... In our insignificance Turn the jukebox up, he said... Dancing in irreverence... Play C-3,... let the song protest. The plates began to shift... Perfect lefts come rolling in... I was alone,... and far away, hey.. When I heard the band start playin' On the lip...late take off Bombs,.. dropping down... Overhead,.. underground... It's instilled...to wanna live. Bombs,... dropping down,... Please forgive... our hometown... In our insignificance Feel like resonance of distance... In the blood...the iron lies It's instilled... to wanna live.

Why shes with him And I sleep w/the light on,.. In case she comes And I sleep w/the light on,.. In case she Recently as I was waiting on a dream She came to visit lost & lonely me She leaned over the bed & with her lips above my head She asked if I had seen her Johnny Oh and I hide my disappointment Cause for years I had been hoping Oh yeh how I had been hoping That when she came, she would come for me I hide my disappointment Cause for years I had been hoping that when she came, she'd be coming just for me

Artist: Pearl Jam You're always saying that there's something wrong,... I'm starting to believe it's your plan all along,... Death came around, forced to hear its song,... And know tomorrow can't be depended on. I seen the home inside your head,... All locked doors and unmade beds. Open sores unattended Let me say just once that I have faced it,... A life wasted,... I'm never going back again. I escaped it,... A life wasted,.. I'm never going back again. Having tasted,... A life wasted,... I'm never going back again The world awaits just up the stairs Leave the pain for someone else. Nothing back there for you to find,... Or was it you, you left behind? You're always saying you're too weak to be strong,... You're harder on yourself than just about anyone,... Why swim the channel just to get this far? Halfway there, why would you turn around? Darkness comes in waves,... tell me, why invite it to stay? You're warm with negativity, Yes, comfort is an energy,... But why let the sad song play? I have faced it,... A life wasted,... I'm never going back again. Oh I escaped it,... A life wasted,... I'm never going back again. Having tasted,... A life wasted,... I'm never going back again. Oh I erased it,... A life wasted,... I'm never going back again.

And the doors are open now as the bells are ringing out Cause the man of the hour is taking his final bow Goodbye for now. Nature as its own religion; gospel from the land Father ruled by long division, young men they pretend Old men comprehend. And the sky breaks at dawn shedding light upon this town They'll all come around Cause the man of the hour is taking his final bow Goodbye for now. And the road The old man paved The broken seams along the way The rusted signs, left just for me He was guiding me, love, his own way Now the man of the hour is taking his final bow As the curtain comes down I feel that this is just goodbye for now Lost Dogs

Its like his thoughts are too big for his size He's been taken... where? I don't know... off he goes With his perfectly... unkept hope... there he goes... And now I rub my eyes... for he has returned Seems my preconceptions are what should have been burned... For he still smiles... and he's still strong Nothing's changed, but the surrounding bullshit... that has grown And now he's home... and we're laughing... like we always did... my same old... same old friend Until a quarter-to-ten...

Other Side
Artist: Pearl Jam Composer: Ament It's not the same without you up here Can't find my wheels Your absence is what breeds this fear Warm breath and all it steals You can't know how it feels to be in here All the dark horse fields, befriendin' me Playin' ain't the same without you here We've come to hate the golden rule Cannot seem to make the dots connect The morning light don't show you near You can't know what it's like to bleed from here The blackened world grows white, it goes nowhere Oooh hoo.. Death ain't the same without you, dear I make the others run and hide New York streets seem to make it worse All this noise inside the quiet I can't hold on, the weight you bear My body's broken fast, please lift me up You can't know what it's like to be inside The fading melodies can't beat my need I'm not the same without you here How can I quit to be there Sit and stare Stare..

That you're gone All the troubles suddenly explained infinitum You're always wishing and Never here at Home You All the dreams we shared and Lights we turned on But the house is getting dark And I don't want to know your past But together share the dawn And I won't need Nothing else Cause when we're dead We would've had it all And died I would've fallen from the sky Til you Parachutes have opened now Heaven knows if there's a ceiling come so low with the kneeling Please know that I got All the friends I'm needing Before my light goes out As the doors are closing now And far away will be my home And to grasp this, I don't know And I don't need Further back and forth, a wave will break on me today And love,... Wish the world could go again with love One cant seem to have enough And war,.... Break the sky and tell me what it's for I'll travel there on my own And love,.... What a different life Had I not found this love with you

Checked your hands and studied the lines Have you the belief that the road ahead, ascends off into the light? Seems that needlessly it's getting harder To find an approach and a way to live Are we getting something out of this all-encompassing trip?

PEARL JAM SONGBOOKUndone


Artist: Pearl Jam Composer: Vedder Last stop on the west coast line South of the northern border One small corner on my mind Everybody, they know me there Don't get any second glances Chances are that they don't care The world has come undone Like to change it everyday Change don't come at once It's a wave... building before it breaks Can't wait for election day Witness the occupation Corporations rule the day Well you know the pendulum throws Farther out to the one side, swinging Has to sweep back the other way The world has come undone Another day and who can wait Change don't come at once It's a wave building before it breaks All this hope and nowhere to go This is how I used to feel, but no more The world has come undone Like a game that few can play Change don't come from one It's a wave... building before it breaks Lost Dogs

PEARL JAM SONGBOOKUnemployable


Artist: Pearl Jam He's got a big gold ring what says \\"Jesus Saves\\" And it's dented from the punch thrown at work that day When he smashed the metal locker where he kept his things After the big boss said, \\"You best be on your way\\" Oh yeh So this life is sacrifice Oh yeh Jumping trains just to survive Well, his wife and kid are sleeping but he's still awake On his brain weighs the curse of thirty bills unpaid Gets up, lights a cigarette he's grown to hate Thinking if he can't sleep, how will he ever dream? Yeh So this life is sacrifice Oh yeh To a stranger's bottom line Yeh I seen the light,... Uh-oh oh oh, uh-oh oh oh I's scared alive,... Near to death,... Uh-oh oh oh, uh-oh oh oh I seen the light,... Scared alive. Yeh So this life is sacrifice Oh yeh They can't say I never tried Yeh I seen the light,... Uh-oh oh oh, uh-oh oh oh I's scared alive,... Near to death,... Uh-oh oh oh, uh-oh oh oh I seen the light,... Scared alive,.... Uh-oh oh oh, uh-oh oh oh Near to death. Hear to die. Scared alive.

Wash
Artist: Pearl Jam Composer: Vedder/Gossard/Ament/McCready/Krusen Oh please let it rain today. This city's so filthy. Like my mind in ways. Oh it was the time. Like a clean new taste. Smiling eyes before me and tears from my face. Wash my love. Wash my love. Wash my love, yeah. Sin for sale. Buying just a need. O who planted all the devils seeds? And what's the truth? And the truth that lies at home. It's on the inside and I can't get it off. Yeah. Wash my love. Wash my love. Wash my love, yeah. What's clean is pure. But hey, I'm white on the outside. Though I stray. What she don't know today might kill us both tomorrow. Bring it back someway. Bring it back, back, back... to the clean form. To the pure form. Wash my love. Wash my love. Wash my love. Wash my love. Wash my love. Wash my love. Wash my love. Yeah Wash my ...wash my...wash my love....yeaaaaaaahhhhhhh Lost Dogs

PEARL JAM SONGBOOKWhale Song


Artist: Pearl Jam Composer: Irons The sun was in clouds. The sun looked out. Exposed a trail of mist and spouts. Ships followed the ancient lead. Deceiving friends under the sea. Wow, imagine that? They won't fight back. I got a theory on that. A whale's heart is as big as a car. A whaler's thought must be smudged by the dark. They won't fight back. I'm sure they know how. Means they love or are too proud. They won't fight back. I'm sure they know how. Means they love or too proud. They swim. It's really free. It's a beautiful thing to see. They sing. Hunters of land. Hunters of sea. Exploit anything for money. I refer to anybody that takes advantage of what that is free. They won't fight back. It's only a thought that makes it seem right. What you don't see is because of your sight. Take what you want. Kill what you can. That's just one way of the mind of man. Take their lives. Sell their parts but there is not taking of their hearts. If I was lost at sea. That harpoon boat in front of me. It's the whale I'd like to be. They won't fight back. They won't fight back. They won't fight back. They won't fight back. They won't fight back. They don't know how. They won't fight back. They won't fight back. They won't fight back. Lost Dogs

Who You Are


Artist: Pearl Jam Composer: Gossard/Irons/Vedder Come to send, not condescend Transcendental consequence Is to transcend where we are Who are we? Who we are Trampled moss on your souls Changes all you're a part Seen it all, not at all Can't defend fucked up man Take me a for a ride before we leave... Circumstance, clapping hands Driving winds, happenstance Off the track, in the mud That's the moss in the aforementioned verse Just a little time, before we leave...

Why Go
Artist: Pearl Jam Composer: Ament/Vedder She scratches a letter Into a wall, made of stone Maybe someday Another child Won't feel as alone as she does It's been two years And counting Since they put her in this place She's been diagnosed By some stupid fuck And mommy agrees Why go home? Why go home? Why go home... She seems to be stronger But what they want her to be is weak She could just pretend She could join the game, boy She could be another clone Why go home? Why go home? Why go home? Why go home? What you taught me Put me here Don't come visit Mother Why go home? Why go home? Why go home? Why go home?

World Wide Suicide


Artist: Pearl Jam I felt the earth on Monday. It moved beneath my feet in the form of a morning paper. Laid out for me to see. Saw his face in a corner picture. I recognized the name. Could not stop staring at the. Face I'd never see again. It's a shame to awake in a world of pain What does it mean when a war has taken over It's the same everyday in a hell manmade What can be saved, and who will be left to hold her? The whole world,... world over. It's a worldwide suicide. The whole world,... world over. It's a worldwide suicide. Medals on a wooden mantle. Next to a handsome face. That the president took for granted. Writing checks that others pay. And in all the madness. Thought becomes numb and naive. So much to talk about there's. Nothing for to say. It's the same everyday and the wave won't break Tell you to pray, while the devil's on their shoulder Laying claim to the take our soldiers save Does not equate, and the truth's already out there The whole world,... world over. It's a worldwide suicide. The whole world,... world over. It's a worldwide suicide. Looking in the eyes of the fallen You got to know there's another, another, another, another Another way It's a shame to awake in a world of pain What does it mean when a war has taken over It's the same everyday and the wave won't break Tell you to pray, while the devil's on their shoulder The whole world,... world over. It's a worldwide suicide.

The whole world,... world over. It's a worldwide suicide. Pearl Jam PEARL JAM SONGBOOK

You Are
Artist: Pearl Jam Composer: Vedder/Cameron This broken wheel is coming undone And the roads exploding But you're keeping me strong Rolling along with you,... Love is a tower And you're the key Leading me higher When you let me in Keeping us close,... so close On down the line Sometimes I burn like a dot on the sun With no one knowing But you're keeping me strong Rolling along with you You are a tower of Strength to me The darkening hour Sees light again Ooh wah, ooh wah, ooh wah, ooh wah, ooh wah Ooh wah, ooh wah, you are... you are Love is a tower Of strength to me I am the shoreline But you're the sea You are.
