i think i recall, Stone had a garden, or he is a gardener of some sort...and it was written with that in mind. or something. maybe a joke or something...not sure..
i think it holds a more deeper meaning (but thats just me) i see the world as a garden, but the cities made the garden a garden of stone.. a cold place.. and this song is about those kind of changes in this world imho.

I think this may be about how you can easily be sucked into falling in love with a person that's wrong for you that hurts you and abuses your love i.e. you love them, they don't love you. You love a person so much you become blind to what they're doing to you (we've all been there) and although its painful -
"I will walk with my hands bound,
I will walk with my knees cut"
- You carry on loving them walking through their garden of stone.
Thats what i think about when listening to the song.
One.
Kids - it won't make you blind and it won't stunt your growth! Go on, have a wank!

Oh man that makes tons of sense....Thanks for a differant view on this song
I agree with the love one - the lyrics are VERY fitting. Oh, except for the "After all is done, and we're still alone"...
The opposite is happening to me right now, I have this big fat crush on a girl and I know what she's doing to me and I don't want to want her but the stupid human impulses won't stoooop!
This puke stinks like beer, and everybody's here, so come on come on come on, let's lay waste to this Century...

no way..i had the same interpretation of Garden when i heard it first...it touched my soul so deeply and painfully
How can I be free with what's locked inside of me?

It speaks to me of independence.
Thanks Pearl Jam, for all you do.:D
