I can't either. You should be a mod. Even I didn't read all that.
Some of us did more than just read it, we lived it.

That was pages ago! Mostly tree_ (issues with Ed's vocals), Trag (production and something about ticket prices), VG (enthusiastic praise), Harmless (dozens of posts), and Spenno (HATE IT).

I was hoping we could get a sort of psychic reading, but fair enough.

Official lyric from pearljam.com:

Got me running, got me running
But the race it never ends
Got me running, or else I’m done in

You got me coming as you’re going
And the chase it never ends
I’ll be running, til the second coming

Dictator,... love hater
Lost in the tunnel and the
Tunnel ain't no fun
Now I’m lost in all the shit you’re
Flushing

Victrola,... controller
Lost in the tunnel and the tunnel’s
Getting funneled
Like the sewage in the plumbing
Cause we left the fucking water running

Got me diving, got me diving
Got me deep, I get the bends
When I’m summoned, or too late coming

You got me running, got me running
But the race it never ends
I’m feeling done in, it’s rather stunning

Was cleared for,... for lift off
Aborted my,... take off
Living in the shadows,...
Crossing my fingers
A date with the gallows,...
And a reprieve not looking likely

You got me running
You got me running.

Has RM done a ranking of Pearl Jam bridge sections? Of the top of my head and with a healthy dose of recency bias, here’s my list:

1. Corduroy
2. Evolution
3. Hail, Hail
4. Running
5. Evacuation

Got to be Pilate, but yes Running is up there. Dark Matter might have the best pre chorus.
