Pearl Jam - Ten (1991) by Pearl Jam (보컬) on maniadb.com

I admit it. What's to say?
I'll relive it without pain.
Back street lover on the side of the road.
I got a bomb in my temple that is gonna explode.
I got a sixteen gauge buried under my clothes. I play.


Once upon a time I could control myself.
Once upon a time I could lose myself.


Oh, try and mimic what's insane.
I am in it, where do I stand?
Indian summer and I hate the heat.
I got a back street lover on the passenger seat.
I got my hand in my pocket, so determined, discreet. I pray.


Once upon a time I could control myself.
Once upon a time I could lose myself.


You think I got my eyes closed but I've been looking at you the whole fucking time.


Once upon a time I could control myself.
Once upon a time I could lose myself.
Once upon a time I could love myself.
Once upon a time I could love you.

Freezing. Rests his head on a pillow made of concrete.Again
Feeling maybe he'll see a little better set a days
hand out faces that he sees time again ain't that familiar
dark grin. He can't help when his happy looks insane

Even flow. Thoughts arrive like butterflies
He don't know so he chases them away-yeah
someday yet he'll begin his life again

Kneeling. Looking through the paper though he doesn't know to read
praying now to something that has never showed him anything
Feeling understands the weather of the winters on its way
Ceilings few and far between all the legal halls of shame

Even flow. Thoughts arrive like butterflies
He don't know so he chases them away
Someday yet he'll begin his life again
Whispering hands gently lead him away

Fuck your money

Even flow. Thoughts arrive like butterflies
He don't know so he chases them away
A-someday yet he'll begin his life again
Whispering hands gently lead him away

Son, she said, "Have I got a little story for you.
What you thought was your daddy was nothing but a...
While you were sitting home alone at age thirteen
your real daddy was dying.
Sorry you didn't see him but I'm glad we talked."


I'm still alive.


she walks slowly across a young man's room.
She said, "I'm ready for you."
Why I can't remember anything to this very day?
'Cept the look. The look.
Oh, you know where. Now I can't see I just stare.


I'm still alive.


Is something wrong? She said.
Of course there is.
You're still alive. She said.
Oh, and do I deserve to be? Is that the question?
And if so, if so, who answers? Who answers!


I'm still alive.

She scratches a letter into a wall made of stone
Maybe someday another child won't feel as alone as she does
It's been two years and counting since they put her in this place
She's been diagnosed by some stupid fuck and mommy agrees

Why go home?

She seems to be stronger but what they want her to be is weak
She could play pretend
She could join the game, boy
She could be another clone

Why go home?

What you taught me put me here. Don't come visit. Mother, sing me

Why go home?

What you taught me put me here. Don't come visit. Mother, mother

Why go home?

Sheets of empty canvas
Untouched sheets of clay were laid spread
out before me as her body once did
All five horizons revolved around her soul
As the earth to the sun
Now the air I tasted and breathed has taken a turn
And all I taught her was everything
I know she gave me all that she wore

And now my bitter hands shade beneath the clouds of
what was everything
All the pictures have all been washed in black
Tattooed every day

I take a walk outside I'm surrounded by some kids at play
I can feel their laughter so why do I sear?
And twisted thoughts that spin around my head
I'm spinning.I'm spinning
How quick the sun can drop away

And now my bitter hands cradle broken glass of what was everything
All the pictures have all been washed in black
Tattooed everything

All the love gone bad turned my world to black
Tattooed all I see
All that I am. All I'll be

I know someday you'll have a beautiful life
I know you'll be a star in somebody else's sky but why, why, why
can't it be, oh, can't it be mine?

At home drawing pictures of mountain tops with him on top
Lemon yellow sun
Arms raised in a V
And the dead lay in pools of maroon below

Daddy didn't give attention, oh, to the fact that mommy didn't care
King Jeremy the wicked, oh, ruled his world

Jeremy spoke in class today

Clearly how I remember picking on the boy
Seemed a harmless little fuck
Ooh, but we unleashed a lion
Gnashed his teeth and bit the recess lady's breast
How could I forget. And he hit me with a surprise left
My jaw left hurting. Ooh, dropped wide open
Just like the day, Oh, like the day I heard

Daddy didn't give affection, no, and the boy was something mommy
wouldn't wear
King Jeremy the wicked, oh, ruled his world

Jeremy spoke in class today

Try to forget this
Try to erase this
From the blackboard

Jeremy spoke in class today

Hold on to the thread
The currents will shift
glide me towards
know something's left
And we're all allowed
to dream of the next

of the next time we touch. Oooh

You don't have to stray
the oceans away
Waves roll in my thoughts
Hold tight the ring
The sea will rise
please stand by the shore

Oh. Oh. Oh I will be
I will be there once more. Oooh

What the fuck is this world
running to? You didn't
leave a message at least
I coulda' learned your voice one last time
Daily minefield this could
be my time by you
Would you hit me?

All the bills go by and
initiatives are taken up
By the middle. There ain't gonna be any middle any more
And the cross I'm bearing home
ain't indicative of my place
Left the porch

Hear my name. Take a good look
This could be the day
Hold my hand. Walk beside me
I just need to say

Hear my name. Take a good look
This could be the day
Hold my hand. Lie beside me
I just need to say
I could not take a-just one day
I know when I would not ever touch you, hold you, feel you in my arms
Never again. Yeah

She don't wander in here
Don't wander in here
She, she don't wander in here
Don't wander in here

The direction of the eye So misleading
The defection of the soul
Nauseously quick
I don't question our existence
I just question our modern needs
She don't wander in here
Don't wander in here
She, she don't wander in here

I will walk with my hands bound
I will walk with my face blood
I will walk with my shadow flag
into your garden
Garden of stone

After all is done and
we're still alone
I won't be taken

I'll go with my hands bound
I will walk with my face blood
I will walk with my shadow flag
into your garden
Garden of stone

I don't show
I don't share
I don't need
what you have to give

I will walk with my hands bound
I will walk with my face blood
I will walk with my shadow flag
into your garden, garden

I will walk with my hands bound
I will walk into your garden
Garden of stone

I don't know
I don't care
I don't need
for me to live

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.

Can't touch the bottom.
In too deep
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.

Can't touch the bottom.
In too deep
Can't touch the bottom.
In too deep

On the edge of a Christmas clean love.
Young virgin down from heaven,
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.
But he sinks himself deep.

Can't touch the bottom.
In too deep
Can't touch the bottom.
Can't touch the bottom.
Deep the bottom

I see the world
Feel the chill
Which way to go?
Windowsill
I see the words on a rocking horse of time
I see the verse in the rain

Oh, dear dad
can you see me now?
I am myself
like you somehow
I'll ride the wave
where it takes me
I'll hold the pain
Release me

Oh, dear dad
can you see me now?
I am myself
like you somehow
I'll wait up in the dark
for you to speak to me
How I've opened up
Release me
Release me
Release me dad
Release me

I admit it what's to say
I'll relive it without pain
Backstreet lover

You should be happy
with what you got...
You should be hard to
be a brother...
You should be happy with
what we give you...

Hand over my face. I am related
to my enemy.
My house on fire,
And my big brother come put the blame
on me.

He's a-pushin'...I'm being pushed from
above.
Oh, and a brother, back to back to back,
Better back off of him.

You should not questioh at all
his authority...

Use a flag as a bandage.
Stick 'em up, show us your pocket
hypocrisy.
In the closet, my pleasures
'Cause my big brother don't want to
just let me be.

Oh, and I'm pushin'...oh if I could get
above...
Oh, and a brother back to back back,
Keep your back off.
Oh, and I'm pushin'...I'm being pushed
from above.
Oh, and a brother, back to back to back,
Better back off of him...

Face down...brother...
Face down... [3X]

In my mind there's a clearing.
Black clouds flow through grey still skies.
And the birds don't even whisper.
I'm flying out...I'm flying...

Back to back back, better back off...
Back to back to back,
a better, better, better...
Back to back to back, back to back back...
brother...
Face down...brother...
Face down...
Face down...brother...
Face down...almost...fired...
Face down...I got a gun...
Face down...
I got a gun...I got a gun...
Face down...I got a gun...
Face down...

Aah, fuck it, I'm just gonna go home,
turn on the fuckin' TV...
Watch the nightly news and drink a beer...
Like I could even change the world,
yeah right...

Thieves in the window
Trouble down the hall
The resin white ceiling
Blood, dripping, flows
Out on the front line
Preachers sweep the earth
Out on their backsides
With nothing in common, with no problem

She's just a girl...
Just...just a girl, yeah...
Just one time around
She has little chance to make good
Distance of her lie
Decided in the woods

Burning fires
She's led to police
This maid in progress
Betrayin' your mother's need for a shelter

Oh, just a girl


Just...just a girl
Just one time around
She had little chance to make good
Treats them now, she's young
But it can be taken away
Just one time around...can be taken away
We all make mistakes

Hush my baby...don't you cry...
You're my little alibi
Oh baby, please...I need some sleep
Hmm, now be taking
You with me

Just a girl (5x)
Just a kid, yeah...

Oh, tonight began with anything...
Candlelight, a warm breath and a scream.
Oh, tamper if you like between the doors.
Oh, can't expect to go out...to go out...
With anything...anything more...

Oh, reach the door...a breath and a scr...oh, reach the door....
Life ain't what it's worth...a breath and a scr...oh, reach the door...

All these reaching hands out grabbin' things, grabbin' me...
Day in, day out, accumulating...
I suggest you step out on your porch.
Run away my son, to see it all...oh, see the world.

Oh, reach the door...a breath and a scr...oh, reach the door...
Life ain't what it's worth...a breath and a scr...oh, reach the door...

Come...here it comes...there it goes...when it comes...
Where it goes...where it comes...can't see through the faith...
Come...here it comes...there it goes, grasp what you can...
Don't you know there's something inside your hand...

If I knew where it was I would take you there...
There's much more than this...much more than this.
Oh, see the world...much more than...

Much more than...Why?

State of love and trust
as I busted down the pretext.
Sin still plays and preaches,
but to have an empty court
And the signs are passin',
grip the wheel, can't read it.
Sacrifice receiving
the smell that's on my hands.
And I listen for the voice inside my head
nothin'. I'll do this one myself.
Lay her down as priest does.
Should the Lord be countin'?
Will be in my honor.
Make it pain, painfully quick
Promises are whispered
in the age of darkness.
Want to be enlightened
like I want to be told the end.
And the barrel shakes
and directly at my head.
Oh, help me, help me from myself.
And I listen from both sides of a friend
nothin'. I'll do this one myself.


myself, myself


Hey, na, na, na, na, hey, that's something
Wanna back, back it away
And I listen for the voice inside my head
nothin'. I'll do this one myself.
And the barrel waits, trigger shakes,
aimed right at my head.
Won't you help me? Help me from myself


State of love and trust
And a state of love and trust
State of love and
