All or None
It's a hopeless ... situation
And I'm starting to believe
That this hopeless ... situation
Is what I'm trying to achieve
Listen to this tune anytime I'm feeling complacent.0 -
So many Great ones, thanks Ed!
this one still gives me chills
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..."11/5/91: Troy NY "I Just Want to SCREAM... HELLO!"

I see the birds in the rain
(I don't know why, but that line just floors me every time.)0 -
"said he'll see me on the flipside. Of this trip he's taking for a ride" - That line just sounds so cool an honest. Only eddie could deliver it the way he does.
"Ill ride the wave! Where it takes meeeeeeeee!" - The line really isnt that great until you hear it in the song
"More than friends i always pledged, coz friends they come and go"
"i change by not changen at all"0 -
No matter how cold the winter, theres a spring time ahead
what are you running from? taking pills to get along, creating walls to call your own
and sometimes is seen a strange spot in the sky, a human being that was given to fly
one day the symptoms fade, think ill throw these pills away and if hope could grow from dirt like me
let the ocean swells dissolve away my past
all hail the lucky ones, i refer to those in love
up here so high leaves start to shake, up here so high the sky i scrape
i changed by not changing at all
etc.life can't get eddie vedder than this!0 -

This is my all time favorite, mayber. Its so hard to choose. But i disagree with you that isnt that great without hearing it in the song.
It the moto that I live by. Ride the wave, do new things and who cares what beach you wash up on. That's what it means to me.RC, SoDak 1998 - KC 2000 - Council Bluffs IA 2003 - Fargo ND 2003 - St. Paul MN 2003 - Alpine Valley 2003 - St Louis MO 2004 - Kissimmee FLA 2004 - Winnipeg 2005 - Thunder Bay 2005 - Chicago 2006 - Grand Rapids MI 2006 - Denver CO 2006 - Lollapalooza 2007 - Bonnaroo 2008 - Austin City Limits 2009 - Los Angeles 2009 - KC 2010 - St Louis MO 2010 - PJ20 Night 1 - PJ20 Night 20 -

I didnt mean that its not great. I quote the lyric all the time coz i love it!. I just mean that, when you hear it in the song its mind blowing. It gives me goosebumps everrry time. Its the moto i live by too. Maybe just coz im shit at planning haha. So i just ride the wave0 -

I have so so many, but a few that always stick in my head are:
"Have you seen the way the tree bends, does it inspire
leaning out to catch the suns rays, a lesson to be applied
are we getting something out of this all encompassing trip"
"If i knew where it was I would take you there, there so much more than this"
"see the waves on distant shores awaiting your arrival"
"I had a false believe, I thought we came here to stay,
we're all just visiting
all just breaking like waves
the oceans made me, but who came up with love?"
"three crooked hearts with swirls all around, I miss you all day"
"I'll ride the wave where it takes me, I'll hold the pain, Release me"
I should stop but I really could go on and on...."If I knew where it was I would take you there...."0 -
Well oddly enough yes but Just Breathe is still the best song hehe
"He made it to the ocean, had a smoke in a tree
The wind rose up, set him down on his knee"
Still want you guys to come see the Oaks :)_
Well Frak :oops: I completely forgot about Nothingman oh damn there are too many to list!!!
Thanks Guys :P
once divided...nothing left to subtract...
some words when spoken...can't be taken back...
walks on his own...with thoughts he can't help thinking...
future's above...but in the past he's slow and sinking...
caught a bolt 'a lightnin'...cursed the day he let it go...
nothingman...
nothingman...
Can't forget this one either always sticks in my brain :geek:
"We won the lottery... when you were born...Big Hand Slapped the White Man America"
PEACEThings were different then. All is different now.

I put this line on a poster and display it on my wall. It means EVERYTHING.
"I know I was born and I know that I'll die; the in-between is mine."0 -
"All the rusty signs we ignore throughout our life, choosing the shiny ones instead."
I have wished for so long...
How I wish for you today
Will I walk the long road?
We all walk the long roadWondering why I grow.0 -

''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"

I know you'll be a star in somebody else's sky,
But why, why, why can't it be, can't it be mine?"PJ

"Let's say knowledge is a tree. It's growing up just like me." Oh man.. There's so many

Can you tell me what that means exactly.jamingjamers said:its egg rolling thick and heavy
I do have a feeling, but I'm not sure.
I guess it's hard rolling an egg as it's not quite round.
Is it an actual saying or does it revere to a saying?
It's not who I am underneath, but what I do that defines me.
