All-Encompassing Trip

Pearl Jam — Throw Your Arms Around Me

Pearl Jam — Immortality

Fact: I have 6.08 GB worth of Pearl Jam concert bootlegs. I could listen to them all day.

Pearl Jam — I Won’t Back Down, from the Live At The Gorge 05/06 box set.

Love this song.

Pearl Jam — Fuckin’ Up

This should be my theme song.

Pearl Jam — The Fixer

When something’s gone, I wanna fight to get it back again.

Pearl Jam — Rearviewmirror

Saw things so much clearer once you were in my rear-view mirror

Pearl Jam — Amongst the Waves

Pearl Jam — Speed of Light

Unreleased demo from Pearl Jam’s new album, Backspacer.

Yesterdays how quick they change all lost and long gone now
Want to remember anything moving at the speed of sound
With the speed of sound

And yet I’m still holding tight
To this dream of distant light
And that somehow I’ll survive
But this night has been a long one
Waiting on a sun
That just don’t come

Can I forgive what I cannot forget
And live a lie?
I could give him one more try

Why deny this drive inside just looking for some peace
Everytime I get me some it gets the best of me
Not much left to see

And yet I’m still holding tight
To this dream of distant light
And that somehow I’ll survive
But this night has been a long one
Waiting on a word
That never comes

The whisper in the dark
Is that you or just my thoughts?
I’m wide awake and reaching out

It’s gone so quiet now
Could it be I’m farther out
Moving faster than the speed of sound

Pearl Jam — I’m Open

A man lies in his bed in a room with no door
He waits, hoping for a presence, something, anything, to enter
After spending half his life searching
He still felt as blank as the ceiling at which he stared
He is alive, but feels absolutely nothing, so is he?

When he was six, he believed that the moon overhead followed him
By nine, he deciphered the illusion, trading magic for fact, no trade-backs
So this is what it’s like to be an adult?
If he only knew now what he knew then…

Lying sideways atop crumpled sheets and no covers
He decides to dream
Dream up a new self
For himself.
