Best one or two lines from each record...

inlet13

Ten -

I'll ride the wave where it takes me.

Verses-

I will stare the sun down, until my eyes go blind. I won’t change direction, I won’t change my mind.

Vitalogy -

He who forgets, will be destined to remember.

No Code -

Are you getting something out of this all encompassing trip?

Yield -

And he still gives his love, he just gives it away, the love her receives is the love that is saved.

Binaural -

No time to be void, or save up on life, you’ve got to spend it all.

Riot Act -

The young, they can lose hope because they can’t see beyond today; there’s wisdom that the old can’t give away.

Self-titled -

Why swim the channel just to get this far? You’re halfway there, why would you turn around?

Backspacer -

I’m a lucky man to count on both hands the one’s I love. Some folks have one, others have none… Stay with me... let's just breathe.

CantKeepMeHere

I know someday you'll have a bueatiful life... I'll know you'll be a star...

I will scream my lungs out till it fills this room

Into the SON... into the SUN... burn, burn...

If I had known then, what I know now...

He was stabed by faceless men... well fuckers he still stands

The whole opening verse of Light Years is brilliant
I've used hammers made out of wood
I have played games with pieces and rules..
I've deciphered tricks at the bar...
But now you're gone,... I haven't figured out why...
I've come up with riddles... and jokes about war...
I've figured out numbers and what they're for...
I've understood feelings.. and I've understood words...
But how could you be taken away?...

I wanna race, with the sun down... I'll hold a last breath that I won't let out...

If I don't lose control
Explore and not explode
A preternatural other plane
With the power to maintain.
Like a tear in all we know
Once dissolved, we are free to grow
"What is human?,... What is more?"
I'll answer this
When I get home.

See the sky blanket you with gems and rhinstones

misc

we all walk the longroad

PureandEasy

can'tkeep, it's . . .

feel the sky blanket you with gems and rhinestones

easy mistake

and that is potentially the best line in any Pearl Jam song EVER.

CazzaBGirl

Dont even think about reacing me, i wont be home,dont even think about stopping by,dont think of me at all...

I know some day you'll have a beautiful life,i know you'll be a star...

I will scream my lungs out till it fill this room....

The waiting drove me mad,you're finally here and im a mess....

I wish i was the grounds for fifty million hands up raised and opened towards the sky...

Its an inside job today...

See the path cut by the moon,for you to walk on....

TEN

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, why can't it be mine

YIELD

He made it to the ocean, had a smoke in a tree

BINAURAL

don't feel like home, he's a little out...
and all these words elope, it's nothing like your poem
putting in, inputting in, don't feel like methadone
a scratching voice all alone, there's nothing like your baritone
it's nothing as it seems, the little that he needs, it's home
the little that he sees, is nothing he concedes, it's home
one uninvited chromosome, a blanket like the ozone
it's nothing as it seems, all that he needs, it's home
the little that he frees, is nothing he believes
saving up a sunny day, something maybe two tone
anything of his own, a chip off the cornerstone
who's kidding, rainy day
a one way ticket headstone
occupations overthrown, a whisper through a megaphone
it's nothing as it seems, the little that he needs, it's home
the little that he sees, is nothing he concedes, it's home
and all that he frees, a little bittersweet, it's home
it's nothing as it seems, the little that you see, it's home...



he was okay, but wondering about wandering

RIOT ACT


So much talk it makes no sense at all


AVOCADO

And the days, they linger on
And every night, what I'm waiting for
Is the real possibility I may meet you in my dream

And sometimes you're there
And you're talking back to me
Come the morning I could swear you're next to me

And it's okay.

mikepegg44

She could just pretend - She could join the game, boy - She could be another clone

I am lost, I'm no guide, but I'm by your side - I am right by your side

Can't escape from the common rule - If you hate something, don't you do it too

I remember when, I swore I knew everything, oh yeah
Let's say knowledge is a tree, It's growing up just like me

The oceans made me, but who came up with love?

all of sleight of hand

And I'm not living this life without you, I'm selfish and clear
And you're not leaving here without me, I don't wanna be without
My best... friend. Wake up, to see you could have it all

I have faced it, A life wasted, I'm never going back again.
I escaped it, A life wasted,I'm never going back again.
Having tasted, A life wasted, I'm never going back again

One man stands along, Awaiting For her to come home
Eyes are closed,.. You cannot know But his heart don’t seem to roam.

Coming up a which-way sign. All good truants must decide.

No Code
Stop light plays its part. So I would say you've got a part. What's your part? Who you are. You are who, who you are.

YIELD
And he still gives his love he just gives it away. The love he receives is the love that is saved.

Binaural
We were but stones. Your light made us stars. (Really all of Light Years. Have you ever just sat and read the words. Amazing. I love Binaural so much.)

Ten: I'll ride the wave where it takes me.

Vs.: I'm lost I'm no guide, but I'm by your side; I am right by your side.

Vitalogy: I gather speed from you f--king with me.

No Code: I sometimes realize I could only be as good as you'll let me
Are you woman enough to be my man?
Bandaged hand in hand

Yield: I'm like an opening band for the sun.

Binaural: All the photographs are peeling
and colors turn to gray, he stayed
in his room with memories for days, he faced
an undertow of future's laid to waste, embraced
by the loss of one he could not replace

[Yeah, I know, and I stand by my choice!]

Riot Act: -- I think there are a bunch of great lyrics on this album. I'll call it a tie between:

All the rusted signs we ignore throughout our lives
Choosing the shiny ones instead

-- and --

I was the fool because I thought
I thought the world
Turns out the world thought me

Pearl Jam: Now you got both sides Claiming killing in God's name
But God is nowhere,..... To be found, conveniently

Backspacer: Feel the sky blanket you with gems and rhinestones. See the path cut by the moon, for you to walk on.

Lost Dogs, even though I already cited "Sad": And if hope could grow from dirt like me, it can be done. Won't let the light escape from me, won't let the darkness swallow me.

Ten:
Hold on to the thread, the currents will shift
Glide me towards you.
Know somethings left, and were all allowed
To dream of the next,
Ohhh, the next... time we touch

(Hon. Mention:)
The direction of the eye, so misleading
The deflection of the soul, nauseously quick
I dont question, our existence
I just question, our modern needs

Vs.:
Cannot find the candle of thought to light your name...
Memories, like fingerprints, are slowly raising
(Hon. mention to all of Indifference)

Vitalogy:
Little secrets, tremors, turned to quake
The smallest oceans still get big, big waves

No Code:
Are you getting something out of this all-encompassing trip?

Yield:
Almost impossible to pick, heres a few:
Two birds is what theyll see, getting lost upon their way

I had a false belief, I thought I came here to stay
Were all just visiting. All just breaking like waves.

Its funny when things change so much, its all state of mind

Binaural:
He was ok, but wondering about wandering.

Any new realizations would have to wait
Till he had more time, more time
Time to dream, to himself,
He waves goodbye, to himself...Ill see you on the other side
Another man, moved by sleight of hand

All of Light Years

Riot Act:
I wanna race with the sundown
I want a last breath
I dont let out

Self Titled:
Let me run into the rain
To be a human light again

Further back and forth a wave will break on me, today
And love, wish the world could go again with love
One cant seem to have enough

Backspacer:
Before I disappear
Whisper in my ear
Give me something to echo
In my unknown futures ear
My dear
The End
Comes near
I’m here
But not much longer

This was really hard to choose even just one song off of each album.

Ten
After all is done
And we're still alone
I won't be taken
Yet I'll go...with my hands bound

Vs.
And to this day, she's glided on
Always home but so far away
Like a word misplaced
Nothing said, what a waste

Vitalogy
Everything has chains...absolutely nothing's changed

No Code
I miss you already... I miss you always
Three crooked hearts and swirls all around... I miss you all day

Yield
The man upstairs is used to all of this (fucking) noise
I'm through with screaming

Binaural
With heavy breath,... awakened regrets...
Back pages and days alone that could have been spent,
Together... but we were... miles apart
Every inch between us becomes light years now..

Riot Act
All the rusted signs we ignore throughout our lives
Choosing the shiny ones instead

Pearl Jam:
Walking tightrope high,... Over moral ground
Seeing visions of,............. Falling up somehow
Do come down

I will light the match this morning, so I won't be alone
Watch as she lies silent, for soon light will be gone
Oh I will stand arms outstretched, pretend I'm free to roam
Oh I will make my way, through, one more day in...hell
