this song was me earlier today... :mad: life is a fun and funny journey...:rolleyes:
i took a drive today
time to emancipate i guess it was the beatings made me wise
but i'm not about to give thanks, or apologize
i couldn't breathe, holdin' me down
hand on my face, pushed to the ground
enmity gauged, united by fear
forced to endure what i could not forgive...
i seem to look away
wounds in the mirror waved
it wasn't my surface most defiled
head at your feet, fool to your crown
fist on my plate, swallowed it down
enmity gauged, united by fear
tried to endure what i could not forgive
saw things
saw things
saw things
saw things
clearer
clearer
once you, were in my...
rearview mirror... i gather speed from you fucking with me
once and for all i'm far away
i hardly believe, finally the shades...are raised...
saw things so much clearer
once you, once you...
rearviewmirror...

I hope I never have to go through this song, again. Nuff said . . . you said it. I hope no one else does, too. Hope is a foul word sometimes, but if we didn't have the ability for it, then how could a journey start with a step, eh?

This is by far my favorite song of all time, not just my favorite PJ song, but of all time. The lyrics just speak to me and make me feel better about whatever the hell is getting to me, especially when it concerns other people. I can't tell you how many times after my last relationship ended that I blasted this as loud as it could go on my stereo on my ride home from work. Instant feel good.
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!! SAYS IT ALL *gives the finger* *snort*
Damn, another member of the ASS KICKERS club and I loooooooooove it! This song sets shit on FIYAH and FUELS you with strength! SO damn PERFECT for letting some agression out. It's helped me many a time. And live?! :eek: Fuckin incredible.The lights?! That energy up there!? The extended JAM!? Hell yeah!
But wait......
PLEASE GO LISTEN TO ~~~>SD 2003 VERSION
Why does Eddie BARK LIKE A DOG?!?! :eek: ROTF!! LMAO!! Please! What in the!?> 1:12 into it!! People....GO LISTEN! Fuckin hilarious. I never thought this song would make me laugh but this done did it.

RVM got me through (and continues to get me through) my battle with alcoholism. Been sober over two years now, and it's not so much of a struggle anymore as it was a year ago, but the song still helps me. Instead of it being about a 'significant' other, that person in the song is alcohol (or myself, while I was drinking, depending on how you want to interpret things.) My e-mail for the past 2+ years has been igatherspeed@whatever-isp-i-happen-to-use.com. The song is a large part of who I am. God Bless Pearl Jam.
For those that have fucked me over, THIS LINE IS FOR YOU! :mad:
I gather speed from you fuckin with me!!!!
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!! SAYS IT ALL *gives the finger* *snort* :rolleyes:
kaddi, that is my favorite line too!!! It just gives u SO much power and energy to say "FUCK U ALL!" Plus, this is a GREAT line for my ex who cheated on me
LOL @ VEDHEAD27, so true, why does Eddie bark in that SD verison?! hahaha. too funny!!

I hate to take up space on his with more of the same but uh yeah.
So many times I have sat in silence letting things build up, and this music, this gift has kept me from pulling the trigger, doing the line, pushing the plunger, opening the bottle, destroying myself.
Music never lies to you and for that I will be eternally grateful.

That's one more time around... and there is not a sound. . . he's lying dead, clutching benjamins never put the money down
Exactly! This song will take care of it ALL for you. Such power here. It'll heal you while also letting you get all that agression out. Very therapeutic.
I completely LOVE when Ed adds the "FUCK OFF!" during the live performances too. Just adds fuel to the fire ya know? Uh! So intense.
And THANK YOU PJ for sneaking in a fierce ass beating at the very end of the song!!! :eek: I love that shit! What a way to end it! It's perfect!! It really does complliment the eye-opening experience of this song. I also always appreciate it when I can flat out headbang to a PJ song. \m/

Technically, the best written song on the album (or compared to Ten as well for that matter).
Love it.
emotional.. powerful...
see most people would say technically Indifference is the best.. but RVM delivers the emotion and power.. and more effectively.
I'm sure there has been discussion over the psyche-jam they've been doing it with (since 1995 actually) and that's terrific.
i can't imagine the song without it.
melbourne 1995 is my favorite version.. Mike is in the background fucking with delays and the wah.. and Stone has this perfect reverb and just putting simple happy fills in.. beautiful
INDEED! Hell yes! Nicely said & I couldn't agree more my friend. Stoney and Mikey bring it together perfectly here...and Ed. Wow! I can't get over it. He just rips you apart and puts you back together all at once.
I remember once Mikey saying if forced to choose this is by FAR one of his fav songs to perform live. He said he feels that it's one that really, really gets more and more intense each time. Agreed! He also said something along the lines of how ED gets more and more intense with each version and how he completley feeds of that creating soooooooo much fierceness all around. Love it!
beautiful. emotional.. powerful...
<~~ blasting you know what
**lets a TON of aggression out*
Damn! Seriously........THANK YOU PJ!!!!!!!!!!!!

I tend to sit in silence and listen to Black - reckon youve got the right idea!!!
At the concert here in Missoula I sang to Ed while I think he was regrouping or something. I have dealt with a lot and this song sums it up. I would like to have a bootleg of this show.
K-The lost will do their best to get home, if they are loved. To our soldiers who have given what they had.
If I just listen to this song my mood gets worse. I go from a good mood to a bad mood or from a bad mood to an exceptionally bad mood. I still like it, though. I just listen in small doses, and make sure I listen to Journey afterwards

yea no shit thats the fucking best part. ....they have that interlude in the middle. all 5 guys are just jamming out. they all take turns doing some funky guitar shit...Stoney does some crazy shit also. Eddie is just straight jamming havin a good time....this goes on for what seems like 10 minutes...some all kinds of riffs going on...all improv!
then Jeff does his little Jeff stance. and starts back in with the bass line. then it just rocks out till the end when it's jam time again with the strobe lights flashing.
fucking RVM what a fucking song live. I fucking love it!!!!
couldn't have said it better myself!!!!
