    I love that I still care enough to drop everything to try to parse two lines of lyrics to a new Pearl Jam song.
    I gather speed from you fucking with me.

    "Steal the light from my eyes
    Take my blood from my heart
    We're all in this dark matter"

    Pretty sure that's it.

    So, anyone making any progress figuring out what he's saying? lol
    My attempt:
    Hear the light from my lies
    Hear my breath from my high life
    Reign over this dark matter
    Steal the light from her eyes 
    Take the blood from my …?
    When all there is… dark matter 

    Steal the light from her eyes
    Take the blood from my horse
    And all of this dark matter

    Sounds like a mystical stew

    Pretty sure that's it.

    I'm definitely hearing an "r" sound before "eyes" (as in "her eyes"), another syllable or syllables after "heart" and before the last line, and the last line as "We're in all of this dark matter."

    EDIT: Could be "And all of this dark matter," as BloodMeridian suggests.

    That small clip sounds like it could be a song relative to “Brother”, pun intended.  Can’t wait for Monday night!

    Steal the light from our eyes
    Drain the blood from our hearts
    And(?) all of this dark matter

    Hey, speaking of which-- I was listening to NYC 12/31/92 yesterday, and it sounds like Ed introduces what is labeled as "Daughter" as "Brother," and then he sometimes sings "daughter" and sometimes sings "brother" in the performance. (I know the song originated as "Brother" before becoming "Daughter," as seen in the clip in PJ20.) The sound quality of the recording is not great, so it's hard to tell, but has anyone else noticed this?

    They do, but it could also be that the 30-second clip follows the 25-second clip, or the 30-second clip follows the first verse. We'll find out soon enough. We have 55 seconds of this song; can't we just have the rest now? Please, Mom!

    I know they said it's a song about Ed's daughters, but I'm holding out hope that "Setting Sun" is a cover of the Chemical Brothers song.
