Re: Top Ten Pearl Jam lyrics
Fuck yes! I love that line. It might be the most romantic thing Ed's written.VinylGuy wrote:yeah, Amongst The Waves too. It feel more like Ed talking about himself instead of someone telling a story, but still lots of good moments.
And once outside the undertow
Just you and me, and nothing more
Thats a great one.

Re: Top Ten Pearl Jam lyrics
I was initially talking about the lyrics. But the more we talked about it the more I realized I was wrong. That's the trouble with thinking out loud via keyboard.stip wrote:Oh, I was thinking atmosphere in the music. Lyrically I think that scene painting is there, but the music almost always hurries things along so you don't get to linger, Even songs like The End feel a bit rushed compared to its peers.

Re: Top Ten Pearl Jam lyrics
Totally. I know some balk at the "religious" imagery but I love the twist Ed puts on it by saying "I can feel like I have a soul that has been saved." As an atheist that line has always been really moving and powerful for me. Because there are so many things in life that do replicate or duplicate or replace that religious feeling but are secularly sacred. Ed really nailed that and I really feel it every time I listen to the song.VinylGuy wrote:yeah, its super good.

Re: Top Ten Pearl Jam lyrics
Cold Confession paints a remarkable picture lyrically and gasp is helped along by the music in a Crazy Mary kinda way.

Re: Top Ten Pearl Jam lyrics
All of this
He scared himself, into a trance
ducking down rivers, secretly
He floated out, into the ocean
of his worst dream, of his rough sea?
of all the men he could trust
he was not one of them, always hurting himself
this scars and seams?, the wounds are tone
whatever time had healed, it's still too cold
A life washed away, like words in the sand
and when the high tide came, so went his plan
a troubled past, a troubled future
a troubled way leaning on a bar stool
when strobelight stop, he finally saw
navigation towards a brand new course
but to himself the memory clear
cold confession only, that only he could hear
He let himself scream, he let himself cry
let himself reach the other side
there was on christ, there was no cross
just forgiveness, allowed himself
accepted the past, then set it free
oh and it ran off like an animal with ease
he holds the bruise?, he holds their star
in his pure arms, in his clear heart
He's safe now, he's back in her breast
he saw his path, and changed it, chased it, at last
Edit Lyrics
