Long Road Ecrit par: Vedder Album: Merkinball Date: 5 décembre 1995 And I wished for so long. Cannot stay. All the precious moments. Cannot stay. It's not like wings have fallen. Cannot stay. But still something's missing. I cannot say, yeah. Holding hands are daughters and sons. And their faiths are falling down, down, down, down. I have wished for so long. How I wish for you today. Will I walk the long road? (the long road) Cannot stay. (the long road) There's no need to say goodbye. (to say goodbye) All the friends and family. All the memories going round, round, round, round. I have wished for so long. How I wish for you today. And the wind keeps roaring. And the sky keeps turning grey. And the sun is set. The sun will rise another day. I have wished for so long. How I wish for you today. I have wished for so long. How I wish for you today. Will I walk the long road? We all walk the long road. Will I walk the long road? We all walk the long road. Will I walk the long road? Will I walk the long road? We all walk the long road. Will I walk the long road? We all walk the long road. Will I walk the long road? |

Grievance Ecrit par: Vedder Album: Binaural Date: 16 mai 2000 Have a drink they're buying. Bottom of bottle of denial. Big eye, big eye watching me. Have to wonder what it sees. Sin. Progress laced with ramifications. Freedom's big punch. Oh. Pull the innocent from a crowd. Raise those sticks them bring them down. If they fail to obey. Ah, if they fail to obey. Yeah yeah. For every tool they lend us a loss of independence. I pledge my grievance to the flag. Cause you don't give blood then take it back again. Oh we're all deserving something more. Progress. Taste it. Invest it all. Champagne breakfast for everyone. Everyone. Break the innocent when they're proud. Raise those stakes then bring them down. If they fail to obey. Yeah, ha, if they fail to obey. Pledge your grievance to the flag. Cause, don't give blood then take it back again. Oh, we're all deserving something more. Have a, have a drink, drink. Have a, have a drink, drink. I want to breathe part of the scene. I want to taste everyone I see. I want to run when I'm up high. I want to run to the sea. I want life to be. I just want to be. I will feel alive as long as I am free. |

Corduroy Musique: Vedder, Gossard, Ament, McCready, Abruzzese Paroles: Vedder Album: Vitalogy Date: 6 décembre 1994 The waiting drove me mad. You're finally here and I'm a mess. I take your entrance back. Can't let you roam inside my head. I don't want to take what you can give. I would rather starve than eat your bread. I would rather run but I can't walk. Guess I lie alone just like before. I'll take the firmest path. Oh, and I must refuse your test. A-push me and I will resist. This behavior's not unique. I don't want to hear from those who know. They can buy but can't put on my clothes. I don't want to wait for them to walk. Never would have known of me before. I don't want to be held in your debt. I'll pay it off in blood let I be wed. I'm already cut up and half dead. I'll end up alone like I began. Everything has chains. Absolutely nothing's changed. "Take my hand, not my picture." Spelled my T-shirt. I don't want to take what you can give. I would rather starve than eat your breast. All the things that others want for me. Can't buy what I want because it's free. Can't be what you want because I... Why ain't it susposed to be just fun? To live and die let it be done. I figure I'll be damned. All alone like I began. It's your move now. I thought you were a friend but I guess, I... I guess I hate you. |

Given To Fly Musique: McCready Paroles: Vedder Album: Yield Date: 3 février 1998 He could have tuned in, tuned in, but he tuned out. A bad time nothing could save him. Alone in a corridor, waiting, locked out. He got up outta there ran for hundreds of miles. He made it to the ocean, had a smoke in a tree. The wind rose up set him down on his knee. A wave came crashing like a fist to the jaw. Deliver him wings, "Hey look at me now!" Arms wide open with the sea as his floor oh, oh, oh... He's flying, whole! High! wide! oh... He floated back down cause he wanted to share. This key to the locks, on the chains, he saw everywhere. But first he was stripped, and then he was stabbed by faceless men. Well fuckers, he still stands. And he still gets his love he just gives it away. The love he receives is the love that is saved. And sometimes is seen a strange spot in the sky. A human being that was given to fly... Flying! whole... High! flying! whole... He's flying! woah... High... woah... oh... |

Dissident Musique: Vedder, Gossard, Ament, McCready, Abruzzese Paroles: Vedder Album: Vs Date: 19 octobre 1993 She nursed him there, ooh, over a night. I wasn't so sure she wanted him to stay. What to say? What to say? But soon she was down. Soon he was low. At a quarter past. A holy no. She had to turn around. When she couldn't hold, oh, she folded. A dissident is here. Escape is never the safest path. Oh, a dissidence. A dissident is here. And to this day she's glided on. Always home but so far away. Like a word misplaced. Nothing said, what a waste. But when she had contact with the conflict. There was meaning but she sold him to the state. She had to turn around. When she couldn't hold she folded. A dissident is here. Escape is never the safest path. Oh, a dissidence. A dissident is here. Oh. Oh... Oh... She gave him away when she couldn't hold. No, she folded. A dissident is here. Escape is never the safest path. Oh, a dissident, a dissident is here. Oh, couldn't hold on. She couldn't hold. No, she folded. A dissident is here. Escape is never the safest place. Oh, A dissident is here. |

Even Flow Musique: Gossard Paroles: Vedder Album: Ten Date: 27 août 1991 Freezing. Rests his head on a pillow made of concrete. Again. Oh, Feeling maybe he'll see a little better set a days. Ooh yeah. Oh, hand out faces that he sees time again ain't that familiar. Ooh yeah. Oh, dark grin. He can't help when his happy looks insane. Ooh. Even flow. Thoughts arrive like butterflies. Oh, he don't know so he chases them away-yeah. Ooh. Oh, someday yet he'll begin his life again. Life again. Life again. Kneeling. Looking through the paper though he doesn't know to read. Ooh yeah. Oh, praying now to something that has never showed him anything. Oh, feeling understands the weather of the winters on its way. Oh, ceilings few and far between all the legal halls of shame. Yeah. Even flow. Thoughts arrive like butterflies. Oh, he don't know so he chases them away. Oh, someday yet he'll begin his life again. Oh, whispering hands gently lead him away. Him away. Him away. Yeah. Woo. Ah Yeah. Fuck your money. Even flow. Thoughts arrive like butterflies. Oh, he don't know so he chases them away. A-someday yet he'll begin his life again. Yeah. Oh, whispering hands gently lead him away. Him away. Him away. Yeah. Woo. Uh huh yeah. Yeah yeah, momma mommy |

I Am Mine Ecrit par: Vedder Album: Riot Act Date: 12 novembre 2002 The selfish. They're all standing in line. Fathing and hoping to buy themselves time. He 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 lines. 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 sorrows 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. What. And the feelings that get left behind. All the innocence broken with lies. Significance between the lines. We may need to hide. And the meaning that get left behind. All the innocence lost at one time. We're all different behind the eyes. There's no need to hide. |

Love Boat Captain |

1/2 Full Musique: Ament Paroles: Vedder Album: Riot Act Date: 12 novembre 2002 Climbing on a mountain. Floating out on the sea. Far from lights of a city. The elements they speak to me. Whispering that life. Existed long before breed. Balancing the world. On its knee. Don't see some men as half empty. See them half full of shit. Thinking that we're all but slaves. There's ain't gonna be. No middle anymore. It's been said before. The haves be having more. Yet still bored. Won't someone save? Won't someone save, the world? |

Not For You Musique: Vedder, Gossard, Ament, McCready, Abruzzese Paroles: Vedder Album: Vitalogy Date: 6 décembre 1994 Restless soul, enjoy your youth. Like Muhammad. Hits the truth. Can't escape from the common rule - if you hate something don't you do it too. Small my table. A-sits just two. Got so crowded. I can't make room. Oh where did they come from? Stormed my room. And you dare say it belongs to you. To you. This is not for you. My friends call me Ed, they call me. My friends they don't scream. My friends don't call. My friends don't. All that's sacred comes from youth. Dedication. Naive and true. With no power. Nothing to do. I still remember. Why don't you? Don't you? This is not for you. Never was for you. Fuck you. This is not for you. |

Off He Goes Ecrit par: Vedder Album: No Code Date: 27 août 1996 1, 2, 1, 2... Know a man. His face seemed pulled and tense. Like he's riding on a motorbike in the strongest winds. So I approach with tact. Suggest that he should relax, but he's always moving much too fast. Said he'll see me on the flipside of this trip he's taking for a ride. He's been taking too much on. There he goes with his perfectly unkept clothes. There he goes. He's yet to come back but I see his picture. It doesn't look the same up on the rack. We go way back. I wonder about his insides. It's 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. I saw the strain creep in. He seems distracted and I know just what is going to happen next. Before his first step he is off again. |

Elderly Woman Behind the Counter Of A
Small Town Musique: Vedder, Gossard, Ament, McCready, Abruzzese Paroles: Vedder Album: Vs Date: 19 octobre 1993 I seem to recognize your face. Haunting familiar, yet I can't seem to place it. Cannot find the candle of thought to light your name. Lifetimes are catching up with me. All these changes taking place. I wish I'd seen the place but no one's ever taken me. Hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away. Hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away. I swear I recognize your breath. Memories, like fingerprints, are slowly raising. Me you wouldn't recall for I'm not my former. It's hard when your stuck upon the shelf. I changed by not changing at all. Small town predicts my fate. Perhaps that's what no one wants to see. I just want to scream, "Hello." My god its been so long. Never dreamed you'd return. But now here you are and here I am. Hearts and thoughts they fade...away... Hearts and thoughts they fade...away... Hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away... Hearts and thoughts they fade... |

MFC Ecrit par: Vedder Album: Yield Date: 3 février 1998 Sliding out of reverse into drive. This wheel will be turning right, then straight. Off in the sunset she'll ride. She can remember a time, denied. Stood by the side of the road. Spilled like wine now. She's out on her own and line high. There's no leaving here. Ask I'm an ear. She's disappeared now. They said that timing was everything. Made him want to be everywhere. There's a lot to be said for nowhere. There's no leaving here. Ask I'm an ear. He's disappeared now. There's no leaving here. Ask I'm an ear. Fuck it. We'll disappear now. |

Drifting Ecrit par: Vedder Album: Christmas Single 1999 Date: 1999 Drifting, drifting, drifting away. I got myself a mansion, then I gave it away. It's not the world that's heavy, just the things that you save. And I'm drifting, drifting away. Drifting, drifting, drifting along. I rid myself of worries, and the worries were gone. I only run when I want to and I sleep like a dog. I'm just drifting, drifting along. The suitcoats say, "There is money to be made." They get so damn excited, but I guess it's their way. My road it may be lonely just because it's not paved. It's good for drifting, drifting away. Drifting, drifting, drifting, uh huh. I feel like going back there, but never for long. I sometimes wonder if they know that I'm gone. I'm just drifting, drifting along. Drifting, drifting along. Drifting, drifting along. |

Get Right Ecrit par: Cameron Album: Riot Act Date: 12 novembre 2002 I want for to lay down. I'm waiting till sundown. I'm searching the haystacks. Water is sunshine. Wait for the moment. The moment between us. The fire is made now. Harder to touch. I wanted to get right. (x3) With it. With you. Bakers dozen parades. Stand and debate. Out single file. Nine in a row. Swear if you must. Keeping your boots on. Float with the now. Hot to the touch. Concrete underground. Cast out everyday. Dregs of society. Underbelly, inside of me. Rejoice and follow thee. I wanted to get right. (x3) With it. With you. I wanted to get right. |

Deep Musique: Gossard, Ament Paroles: Vedder Album: Ten Date: 27 août 1991 Ahha-yea. On the edge a windowsill. Ponders his maker ponders his will. To the street below he just ain't nothing. But he's got a great view and he sinks the needle deep. Yeah. Whoa, can't touch the bottom. In too deep, yeah. Uh-huh. Can't touch the bottom. Ooh, on the edge of a know-nothing town. Feeling quite superior the age had come. To the sky above he just ain't nothing. But he's got a great view and he sinks the burning mask deep. Yeah. Ooh, can't touch the bottom. In too deep, yeah. Uh-huh. Can't touch the bottom. In too deep. Ohh. Ohh. Oww. On the edge of a Christmas clean love. Young virgin down from heaven, ohh, visiting hell. To the man above her she just ain't nothing. And she doesn't like the view. She doesn't like the view. (x2) But he sinks himself deep. Oh, can't touch the bottom. In too deep, yeah. Uh-huh. Can't touch the bottom. Can't touch the bottom. Deep yeah. Oh. Yeah the bottom. Yeah. Wo. (x5) |

Drains and spills. Soaks the pages. Fills their sponges. It's my blood. (x2) Paint Ed big. Turn Ed into one of his enemies. It's my blood. (x3) Stab it down. Fill the pages. Suck my life out. Maker of my enemies. Take my... Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Rats. |

Betterman Ecrit par: Vedder Album: Vitalogy Date: 6 décembre 1994 Waiting, watching the clock. It's four o'clock. It's got to stop. Tell him. Take no more. She practices her speech as he opens the door, she rolls over. 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. Talking to herself, "There's no one else who needs to know," she tells herself. Memories back when she was smooth and strong and waiting for the world to come along. Swears she knew him 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. She loved him, yeah. She don't want to leave this way. She feeds him, yeah. That's why she'll be back again. Can't find a better man. |

I can kill cause in god I trust. It's evolution baby. I'm a piece of the man. I buy stocks on the day of the crash. On the loose. I'm a truck. All the rolling hills I'll flatten 'em out.

Rearviewmirror Musique: Vedder, Gossard, Ament, McCready, Abruzzese Paroles: Vedder Album: Vs Date: 19 octobre 1993 I took a drive today. Time to emancipate. I guess it was the beatings, made me wise. But I'm not about to give thanks or apologize. I couldn't breathe. Holding me down. Hand on my face. Pushed to the ground. Enmity gauged. United by fear. Forced to endure what I could not forgive. I seem to look away. The wounds in the mirror waved. It wasn't my surface. Most defiled. Head at your feet. Fool to your crown. Fist on my plate. Swallowed it down. Enmity gauged. United by fear. Tried to endure what I could not forgive. Yeah. Saw things... (x4) ...clearer. (x2) Oh, once you were in my Rearviewmirror. I gathered speed from you fucking with me. Once and for all I'm far away. Hard to believe. Finally the shades are raised. Hey, yea. Saw things so much clearer once you, once you... Rearviewmirror. Saw things so much clearer once you, once you... Rearviewmirror. Saw things so much clearer once you, once you... Rearviewmirror. Saw things so much clearer once you... Oh yeah. |
