    someone asked for a lyric type up - i did this quick, so feel free to correct anything i misheard or couldn't make out: (not sure why it is double spaced?

    Can’t Deny

    And now you want me to breathe

    And be so grateful

    For the air that I need

    Don’t make me pitiful

     

    And in the morning light,

    We’re just the same, you and me

    Out on the ghost officials…?

    Our propensity to breathe

     

    The higher, the farther, the faster you fly

    You may be rich, but you can’t deny me

     

    Got nothin’, got nothin’, but the will to survive

    You can’t control, and you can’t deny me

     

    Your lives are sick, your sick and ….(a-vi)?

    You can’t deny me

     

    You try and talk down to me,

    My mind, it ain’t so simple

    Where’s your vocabulary?

    Your ignorance is sinful

     

    You bred your liar-cies…?

    Watch as the roots take hold

    The country you are representing

    Conditional critical

     

    The higher, the farther, the faster you fly

    I know what’s true, and you can’t deny me

     

    Got nothin’, got nothin’, you got nothing to hide

    ….? Bullshit …? And you can’t deny me

     

    The higher, the farther, the faster you fly

    Your souls are sick and you can’t deny me

    you can’t deny me

    you can’t deny me

    you don’t define me

    you can’t deny me

     

    The higher, the farther, the faster you fly

    You know your sick, and you can’t deny me

    Got nothin’, got nothin’, you got something to hide

    We see right through you, and you can’t deny me

     

    Darkness, darkness, darkness alive

    You can’t deny me

    Ok song, I just wish there was a culturally relevant band for the youth that projected these type of anti-establishment lyrics.

    Just got it to play on my iPhone. I like the recording “sound” more than the song but I love new music!  Sounds raw again and not overproduced.
    I'm like an opening band for your mom.

    someone mentioned a typewriter return bell, which made the drumming sound like typing to me, and I thought a also heard a rattle-y sound like when you move the typewriter back to it's start to begin the next line of typing. could be totally wrong, but i imagine the song as the musical manifestation of ev banging this out angrily on a typewriter.

    It doesn't have to be anti-e for me, rather a musician or band that is writing about current events in a meaningful way.  Music was such an important part of the Vietnam era, yet we've never been able to sustain that type ongoing, cultural pressure.  And we pay for it with a pliant, lethargic citizenry.

    For those who didn't like it to start, I felt the same on the first listen. But, remember Pearl Jam isn't bubble gum or candy. It's vegetables and super fruits; as in the more you ingest, the better you feel. So, give a yourself a steady diet, and see what you think. I've had it on repeat for about an hour, and all that emotional, mental, spiritual nutrition is setting in
