    You can spent your time alone
    Re-digesting past regrets
    Or you can come to terms and realise
    You're the only one
    Who cant forgive yourself
    Makes much more sense
    To live in the present tense

    i love it so much i'm gonna get it tattooed on my rib cage.
    Seek,
    Find be yourself.
    Don't follow the herd.
    Don't repeat in spite of the encores.
    Be yourself.
    Otherwise you'll bore us.

    "If I knew where it was, I would take you there. There's much more than this. "

    Makes me want to run off to lands unknown.
    It's nice to be nice to the nice.

  • Life Wasted

    "Nothing back there for you to find, or was it you, you left behinnnnndddd"

    "you're one with negativity, yeah, contra is an energy, why let this sad song playyy....I faced it, a life wasted, i'm never going back again"
  • "Wish I was as fortunate, as fortunate as me"

    Just something I'm currently struggling to get through my own head right now.
    If I knew then, would I know now?

    I have to say 3

    Many have quoted the words from Black, I know someday you'll have a beautiful life etc ....................

    And I know i was born and I know i will die the inbetween is mine I am mine ..................... I live my life by these few words

    but just for sentimentality, whenever I hear these words hairs stand up ......... son, she said, have i got a little story for you.................
    I know I was born and I know that I'll die
    The in between is mine. I am mine

    right now I would say..."Is it so wrong to think that love can keep us safe?"

    I'm digging "Force of Nature" for sure.

    hey guys!
    what's your all time favourite line of PJ?

    makes much more sense.....to live in the present tense.
    a man lies in his bed in a room with no door, he waits hoping for a presence, something, anything to enter....after half my life....pearl jam came along :)

    It's a hopeless situation and I'm starting to believe that this hopeless situation is what I'm trying to achieve.

    I am so hooked on that song!

    Hi,

    just read in the "favourite line" thread that you said you're hooked on that song, obviously meaning "All or None". Just wanted to touch base with you because I feel the same way, this song is just the best song out. I'm listening to it now - the Benaroya Hall version just KICKS ASS!!! I listen to it a lot. If I ever heard it live played the same way, it would probably reduce me to tears. Mike's guitar solo is just superb, even the bit where he goes off key sounds good to me, if that makes sense!!

    I feel like rocking up to a show with a banner saying "All or None". Dont know why they dont play it live more often, would be a great closer instead of Yellow Ledbeter.

    Hope you're enjoying the new album if you have it. I've listened to it on and off for the past 3 days.

    Cheers,

    Sue

  • The line that comes to mind whenever I see someone with the Green Disease--
    "Sorry is the fool who trades his soul for a corvette... thinks he'll get the girl, he'll only get the mechanic"
    Soon Forget

    But I'd find it impossible to pick one favourite.
    eg. "I was the fool b/c I thought I thought the world... turns out the world thought me..."

    Who made up, made up, made up the myth: that we were born to be covered in bliss?
    Who set the standard, "born to be rich?"
    Such fine example, skinny little bitch!
    Model, role model, roll some models in blood,
    get some flesh to stick so they look like us!
    I shit and I stink, I'm real, join the club
    I'd stop and talk but I'm already in love <satan's bed>


    Sorry, I guess that's a verse, but a sweet one.
