Does Eddie Vedder actually know what an analogy is?
"North is to south what the clock is to time"
"Confusion is to commotion what love is to our devotion"

Do these actually mean anything at all?

I would have said No, but then I thought of:

also this works as an analogy, although not an obvious one. the relationship is about how the first word in the pair informs the nature of the second
