    And echoes nobody hears, it goes, it goes, it goes



    i love the word play of that line... how he sings "it goes", which have the same phonetics as the word "echoes", 3 times as in echoing... just fucking brilliant... simple and clever at the same time :)
    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.
  • I know someday you'll have a beautiful life, I know you'll be a star
    In somebody else's sky, but why, why, why
    Can't it be, can't it be mine

    this and my sign and many many others
    Hold me, and make it the truth,...
    That when all is lost there will be you,...
    Cause to the universe I don't mean a thing
    And there's just one word I stil believe
    And it's Love

  • My signs..so inspiring! Also love:

    "And the young, they can lose hope cause they can't see beyond today,...The wisdom that the old can't give away"

    "If I had known then what I know now..."

    "We were but stones,... your light made us stars"

    "The man they call my enemy, I've seen his eyes
    He looks just like me, a mirror"

    "But first he was stripped and then he was stabbed
    By faceless men, well, fuckers
    He still stands"

    "She holds the hand that holds her down
    She will...rise above..."

    Plus a whole load more. I find this thread so inspiring...it drove me to post a fuller list on my Myspace and Bebo blogs to try and spread the beauty of these words.
    "I'll ride the wave where it takes me"

    "I know I was born and I know that I'll die, the in between is mine"

    "Makes much more sense, to live in the present tense"

  • "...Or you can come to terms and realize, you're the only one who can't forgive yourself". Those lyrics really mean a lot to me. I used to have terrible feelings of guilt about things I did that nobody else probably even remembers

  • My favourite Pearl Jam lyric (and song) is

    "You can spend your time alone redigesting past regrets
    or you can come to terms and realize your the only one who cannot forgive yourself oh
    Makes much more sense to live in the present tense"

    that thought alone wakes me up every morning.

    The world is like a ride in an amusement park, and when you choose to go on it you think it's real because that's how powerful our minds are. The ride goes up and down, around and around, it has thrills and chills, and it's very brightly colored, and it's very loud, and it's fun for a while. Many people have been on the ride a long time, and they begin to wonder, "Hey, is this real, or is this just a ride?" And other people have remembered, and they come back to us and say, "Hey, don't worry; don't be afraid, ever. Because this is just a ride." And we...kill those people. "Shut him up! I've got a lot invested in this ride, shut him up! Look at my furrows of worry, look at my big bank account, and my family. This has to be real." It's just a ride. But we always kill the good guys who try and tell us that, you ever notice that? And let the demons run amok? But it doesn't matter, because it's just a ride. And we can change it any time we want. It's only a choice. No effort, no work, no job, no savings of money. Just a simple choice, right now, between fear and love. The eyes of fear want you to put bigger locks on your doors, buy guns, close yourself off. The eyes of love instead see all of us as one. Here's what we can do to change the world, right now, to a better ride. Take all that money we spend on weapons and defenses each year and instead spend it feeding and clothing and educating the poor of the world, which it would pay for many times over, not one human being excluded, and we could explore space, together, both inner and outer, forever, in peace.
