Amongst the waves - Pearl Jam

What used to be a house of cards
Has turned into a reservoir
Saved the tears that were waterfalling
Lets go swim tonight, darling

and Once outside the undertow
Just you and me and nothing more
If not for love I would be drowning
Ive seen it work both ways, but I am up

Riding high amongst the waves
I can feel Like I
Have a soul that has been saved
I can feel like I
Put away my early grave

Gotta say it now
Better loud
Than too late

Remember back the early days
When you were young and thus amazed

Suddenly the channel changed
The first time you saw blood

Cut to later, now youre strong
Youve bled yourself, the wounds are gone
Its rare then where is nothing wrong
Survived and youre amongst the fittest

Love aint love until you give it up

Riding high amongst the waves
I can feel like I
Have a soul that has been saved
I can see the light
Coming through the clouds in rays

Gotta say it now
Better loud
than too late

It's true. The more I listen to it the more I realize how great this album truly is. Disregarded by the critics I think this is Pearl Jam's finest album of the noughties (2000-2009).

I can't believe this song isnt getting more love... Backspacer will be an album we all look back on and say "damn that was good" like we do with Yield today.

[66SmUrF66]

[tenamir]

You have your shit well and truly together! Very well put...today was one of those nice,bright sunny days that took me back to '98 when Yield came out when it just sounded right...now where did i put those v.i.p tickets for hyde park in june?

[whatistheretotype]

that was a greatest hits compilation. I wouldn't really consider it an actual album.
