I wonder if PJ has ever thought of any of their songs, internally, as "punk."

Gotta think this is about Jill just hounding Ed for staying out too late in the studio after he said he’d be home around 8pmJohnny Turner wrote:Official lyric from pearljam.com:
Got me running, got me running
But the race it never ends

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.

I know we live in a world where there's a divide on whether or not context matters, but it still matters to me.

Honestly, reframing this song to be about the endless grind of parenting may bring it to 3 stars status.

The second half of this song (from the start of the bridge) is at least 1.5 stars better than the first half.
