Download mp3 - Grievance : Pearl Jam
Have
a drink, they’re buying...
Bottom of bottle of denial.
Big guy, big eye, watching me...
Left to wonder what it sees.
Progress laced with ramifications.
Freedom’s been pushed...
Pull the innocent from the crowd,
Raise the stakes then bring them down...
If we fail to obey... if we fail to obey.
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.
We’re all deserving something more.
Progress...taste it...invest it all...
Champagne breakfast for everyone.
Break the innocent when they’re proud.
Raise the stakes then bring them down.
If we fail to obey... if we fail to obey.
Attach (pledge?) my grievance to the flag.
Come on, don’t give blood then take it back again.
Oh, we’re all deserving something more.
I wanna bring (breathe?)...
Part of the scene...
I wanna taste (take?)...
Everyone I see...
I wanna ride with ‘em...
I wanna hide...
I wanna run to the sea...
I just want life.... to be...
I just wanna be...to be...
I will feel alive,
As long as I am free.
