How the Race Found the Finish Line

I don’t know the chemistry of cures. The amount of persuasion the brain needs to swallow it whole. Assimilate to throwing darts in the dark against move the targets. Left to belief, because we all believe it.

Drum up a line. Shuffle this confusion. And find answers in the randomness, draw a convenient conclusion.

And then what? Lose myself from what I supposed to have got. Weave through this lot of have nots. This cycle I writhed in pain.

This is probably the first song Pearl Jam relied heavily on the strengths of their rhythm section. Unless of course you count their version of The Who’s “The Real Me” (or any other Who song, for that matter).

The guitar section is relegated to stabs that mislead us to assume that this must be dad’s Funk or gramps’ disco. But this ride is much more unpredictable like Bowie’s Blackstar with Eddie supplying lyrics and vocals that challenge the whole structure to almost ruining it. “It’s not a negative thought, I’m positive!” Positive, Positive.”

This song is not anchored anywhere
