Pearl Jam : Lightning Bolt

1. GETAWAY

Everyone's a critic looking back up the river
Every boat is leaking in this town
Everybody's thinking that they'll all be delivered
Sitting in a box like lost and found

But I found my place and it's alright
We all searching for our better way
Got yours off my plate, it's alright
I got my own way to believe

Find a lighthouse in the dark stormy weather
We all could use a sedative right not
Holy rollers sittin with their backs to the middle
All hands on deck, sinking is the bow

And if you wanna have to pray, it's alright
We all be thinking with our different brains
Get yours off my plate, it's alright
I got my own way to believe

It's ok
Sometimes you find yourself
Having to put all your faith
In no faith
Mine is mine, and yours won't take its place
Now make your getaway

Science says we're making love like the lizards
Try and say that fossils ain't profound
Simon says that we are not allowed to consider
Simon says "Stand-up. Sit-down. You're out!"

But I found my place, and it's alright
Bearing witness to some stranger days
Get yours off my plate, it's alright
I got my own ways to believe

It's ok
Sometimes you find yourself being told to change your ways
There's no way
Mine is mine and yours won't take its place
Now make your getaway

It's ok
Sometimes you find yourself
Having to put all your faith
In no faith
Mine is mine, and yours won't take its place
Now make your getaway

It's ok
Sometime you find yourself
Being told to change your ways
For Gods sake
Mine is mine and yours won't take its place
Now make your getaway
Now make your getaway

Make your getaway


2. MIND YOUR MANNERS

I got an unfortunate feeling
I been beaten down
I feel that I'm done believing
Now the truth is coming out

What they're taking is
More than a vow
They're taking young innocents
And then they throw em on a burning pile
Ah ah ay ay

And all along they're saying
"Mind your manners!"

I caught myself believing
That I needed God
And if it's out there somewhere
We sure could use hymn now

Try my patience!
My patience tried
This world's a long love letter
That makes me want to cry
Ah ah ay ay

And all along they're saying
"Mind your manners!"
That's all they're saying

Self-realized and metaphysically redeemed
May not live another life
May not solve our mystery

Right round the corner
Could be bigger than ourselves
We could will it to the sky
Or we could something else

And all along they're saying
"Mind your manners!"
Always praying

Self-realized and metaphysically redeemed
May not live another life
May not solve our mystery

Right round the corner
Could be bigger than ourselves
We could will it to the sky
Or we could something else

Go to heaven
That's swell
How you like your living in Hell?

Go to Heaven
That's swell
How you like your living Hell?

Go to Heaven
That's swell
How you like your living Hell?


3. MY FATHRE'S SON

I come from genius and I am my father's son
Too bad he was a psychopath
And now I'm the next in line

Then there's dear mother, yeh shirley
She's a work of art
Never got top dollar, but she gave us all our start

Can I get a reprieve?
This gene pool drowning me
Can I get a release?
I'm a volunteer amputee

From the moment I fail
I call on DNA
Why such betrayal?
Got me tooth and nail

Yeh, How's about one conversation
With nothing else left to be had?
With this your young long lost son
And his never had dear old dad

Forget the insemination
And for that, I'm supposed to be glad?
What a pity you left us so soon
To climb your mountain of regret

Can I get a reprieve?
This gene pool dark and deep
Can I get a release?
Can I volunteer amputee

From the moment I fail
I call on DNA
Why such betrayal?
I gotta set sail

All the bright lights shining
As you're trying to breathe in thin air
Cannot forget your hiding
Collected wounds left unhealed

When every thought you're thinking
Sinks you darker than a new moon sky
Far away lights rising
In the whites of your eyes

Now father you're dead and gone
And I'm finally free to be me
Thanks for all your fucked-up gifts
For which I got no sympathy

Now I'm living in a war torn place
Hear the bombs, a 5th Symphony
Thanks for this and thanks for that
I gotta let go legacy

Can I get a reprieve?
This gene pool drowning me
Can I beg a release?
Can I volunteer amputee

From the moment I fail
I call on DNA
Why such betrayal?
I gotta set sail


4. SIRENS

Hear the sirens
Hear the sirens

Hear the sirens
Hear the circus so profound

I hear the sirens
More & more in this here town

Let me catch my breath & breathe and reach across the bed
Just to know we're safe I am a grateful man
The slightest bit of light and I can see you clear

Have you take your hand, and feel your breath for fear this someday will be over
I pull you close, so much to lose knowing that nothing lasts forever
I didn't care, before you were here I danced in laughter with the everafter
But all things change let this remain

Hear the sirens
Covering distance in the night

The sound echoing closer
Will they come for me next time?

For every choice mistake I've made it's not my plan
To send you in the arms of another man
And if you choose to stay I'll wait I'll understand

It's a fragile thing this life we lead tf I think too much I can get over
Whelmed by the grace by which we live our lives with death over our shoulders
Want you to know that should I go I always loved you held you high above, true
I study your face and the fear goes away

It's a fragile thing this life we lead if I think too much I can get over
Whelmed by the grace by which we live our lives with death over our shoulder
Want you to know that should I go I always loved you held you high above, true
I study your face and the fear goes away
The fear goes away
The fear goes away

The fear goes away
Aah ah, oh oh
Aah ah, oh oh
Aah ah, oh oh
Aah ah, oh oh
Aah ah, oh oh
Aah ah, oh oh


5. LIGHTNING BOLT

She comes on like a stone
But you don't know where from she was thrown
Like a burning meteor from miles high

Looking for a place to land
She said, "Have you got yourself some sand?"
And whatever you replied, she took as yes

Now she comes after thee
With her newly planted seeds and soon
You're prone down on your knees and their you dig

And then before you know the weeds are
Obesely overgrown with all the
Wild seed she sows in your sleep

You gotta know you'll never let her go
She's a lightning bolt
Lightning bolt
Lightning bolt

Always something and never nothing
Isn't that the way we're taught to be? To be?
Flipping through the worn out pages
And stages when you knew not who to be
Til the lightning strike sets you free

You gotta know you'll never let her go
She's a lightning bolt
Lightning bolt
Lightning bolt

The crashing stormy waves erode her
Shoreline everyday until the
Castle of her ways turn to sand

She holds her lovely breast
As her birds fall from the nest
Flying towards the great northwest, yeh yeh yeh

And with no repair in sight
There is no God with such might
As to open her world wide with subterfuge

And your death will soon arrive
As she finally decides that all her
Problems, the won't die with you

A-yeah!… A-yeah!… A-yeah!
Never let her go
She’s a lightning bolt
Never let her go
She’s true

She's rock 'n roll
She's a lightning bolt
Uncontrollable
Like you


6, INFALLIBLE

Keep on locking your doors
Keep on building your floors
Keep on just as before

Pay disasters no mind
Didn't get you this time
No prints left at the crime

Our ships come in
And its sinking

Of everything that's possible
In the hearts and minds of men

Somehow it is the biggest things
That keep on slipping
Right through our hands

By thinking we're infallible
We are tempting fate instead

Time we best begin
Here at the ending

Wanna third second chance
Put your faith in big hands
Pay no more than a glance

All good things come to an end
This could be good as it gets
How's the view from the fence?

You think we been here before
You are mistaken

Of everything that's possible
In the hearts and minds of men

When progress could be plausible
In reverse we curse ourselves

By thinking we're infallible
We are tempting fate instead

Time we best begin
Here at the ending

Of everything that's possible
In the hearts and minds of men

Somehow it is the biggest things
That keep on slipping
Right through our hands

By thinking we're infallible
We are tempting fate instead

Time we best begin
Here at the ending
Here at the ending

Keep on locking your doors
Keep on building your floors
Keep on just as before


7. PENDULUM

Can't know what's high
Til you been down so low

The future's bright
Lit up with no where to go

To and fro the pendulum throws

We are here and then we go
My shadow left me long ago

Understand what we don't know
This might pass, this might last, this may grow

Easy come and easy go
Easy left me a long time ago

I'm in the fire, but I'm still cold
Nothing works, works for me anymore

To and fro the pendulum throws
To and fro the pendulum throws

To and fro,… to and fro,…
To and fro,… to and fro,…


8. SWALLOWED WHOLE

I can feel the dawn
I can feel the Earth
I can feel the living all around, round, round, round
All around, round, round, round

I could choose a path
I could choose the word
I can start the healing
Bring it now, now, now, now
Bring it now, now, now, now

Whispered songs inside the wind
Breathing in forgiveness
Like vibrations with no end
Hear the planet humming
What is clear far from the noise
Get swallowed whole

I could feel the sun
I can see the sound
I could set myself right here and drown, drown, drown, drown
Drown, drown, drown

I can feel the rush
I could clear the clouds
I could set the needle, spin it loud, loud, loud, loud
Loud, loud, loud, loud

I can here the crash
I can fee the pound
I can feel the current pulling down, down, down, down
Down, down ,down, down

Whispered songs inside the wind
Breathing in forgiveness
Like vibrations with no end
Feel the planet humming
What is clear far from the noise
Gets swallowed whole

With no quiet to be found
Spirit lifted off the ground
And what lies beyond the grave
Might be welcome change
Time will come, come what may
With now rest in peace
Until that day

I could choose a path
I could choose the word
I can start the healing, bring it now, now, now, now
Now, now, now, now

I could be the sun
I can be the sound
I could set myself right here and drown, drown, drown, drown
Drown, drown, drown, drown

Whispered songs inside the wind
Breathing in forgiveness
And the chapter I've not read
Turn the page...


9. LRT THE RECORDS PLAY

When the Kingdom comes
He puts his records on
And with his blistered thumb hits play

And with the volume up he goes and fills his cup
And lets the drummer's drum take away the pain, the pain

Breaking, Forsaken...
What's that you're taking?
Aaw, needing the feeling
He lets the records play

Should the future dim
A cigarette lights hymn
Vaporized a green light grin

And when the shotglass talks
He knows to listen up
Until he's nice and numb again, again

Shakened, Awakened
Not one for faking
Kneeling, his healing
He lets the records play
There's wisdom in his ways

I been down and I fell so hard and far from grace
I been hurt and I still recall the flaws on her face
I been off, but I'm on, up above my feet, my feet again

Shaken, Foresaken
What's that your taking?
Aaw, needing the feeling
He lets the records play

Shakened, Awakened
Not one for faking
Kneeling, his healing
He lets the records play
There's wisdom in his ways


10. SLEEPING BY MYSELF

I should have known there was someone else
Down below I always kept it to myself

Now I believe in nothing
Not today, as I move myself out of your sight
I'll be sleeping by myself tonight

I could never go with no one else
The hurt don't show, but who knows
Time will tell

Now I believe in nothing
But the pain
And I can't see this turning out right
I'll be sleeping by myself tonight

Forever be sad and lonely
Forever never be the same
I close my eyes, wait for a sign
Am I just waiting in vain?

I close my eyes , wait for a sign
Am I just waiting in vain?

Oh I believe in love and disaster
Sometimes the two are just the same

I'm beginning to see, what's left of me
Is gonna have to be free to survive
I'll be sleeping by myself tonight

Now I believe in nothing
But the pain
And I can't see this turning out right
Oh I'll be sleeping by myself
I'll be sleeping by myself
I'll be sleeping by myself tonight


11. YELLOW MOOM

Here, far away
One could feel the earth vibrate

Moon, changing shape and shade
As we all do under its gaze

Yellow Moon on the rise
Yellow Moon on the rise

Round we go
Where we stop, yeh no one knows
So tonight, the moon I go

Yellow Moon on the rise

An echo that rings
A bullet unchained
One life, one grave
Joins the parade

The sky grows dark
With fallen stars
Who'd come so far
A headstone engraved
The colors turn gray
The black and white fades

Yellow Moon on the rise
Yellow Moon on the rise

Yellow Moon on the rise
Yellow Moon on the rise
Yellow Moon


12. FUTURE DAYS

If I ever were to lose you
I'd surely lose myself

Everything I have found dear
I've not found by myself

Try and sometimes you'll succeed
To make this man of me

All my stolen missing parts
I've no need for anymore

I believe
And I believe cause I can see
Our future days
Days of you and me

Back when I was feeling broken
I focused on a prayer

You came deep as any ocean
Did something out there hear?

All the complexities and games
No one wins but somehow they're still played

All the missing crooked hearts
They may die but in us they live on

I believe
And I believe cause I can see
Our future days
Days of you and me

When hurricanes and cyclones raged
When winds turned dirt to dust
When floods they came or tides they raised
Ever closer became us

All the promises at sundown
I've meant them like the rest

All the demons used to come round
I'm grateful now they've left

So persistent in my ways
Hey Angel I am here to stay
No resistance, no alarms
Please, this is just too good to be gone

I believe
And I believe cause I can see
Our future days
Days of you an me
You and me
You and me
Days,...
You and me
