Stupid is always on the other side of the debate… right?
Stand Back For the Spare Crumbs

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

To be in a perpetual state of grief
To always sink into a mawkish abyss
Held back, thrust forward, ill-equipped, here-you-go
It was to read as a brief chapter
Now it seems to play as the theme of the whole tome
You, In This Light
You showed up… Or maybe you showed off… It’s all a little murky as it happened… Even now… in controlled recall.
You looked at me the way we stare at the sun… Not for long… All for wrong… Reasons.
I now wear these lemon glasses indoors and

I did not poison the well
I just wanted to have a drink of water
I may have overreached and
There You Are
There are places you avoid even if … It sounded like, then, a great idea… See where it goes…
This is not a rabbit hole… This is a snake pit, reasons for… Why those scars are right… There, both your
At the Banquet Table
I just saw a man risk a sure fire fight
On the two hour ride
Back home with his current wife
If You Must Loathe Yourself
Self-loathing is a trademarked attribute associated not exclusive to me. This path is taken not for the want to be liked but for the want to find a way to like the existing self. There’s no need to expound on motivation any further, as by doing so only subject us to teeter a tightrope that always lead to a tragic fall midway into the pit of ignorance. The imbalance is caused by ignorance, as it tries to qualify an elitist, divisive and corrosive pursuit to brandishing some semblance of uniqueness or establish an exclusive club.
Instead, I wish to explore why
Prolly Nonsense
I stare at it
Remaining blank
Aim some well intended
Empty ideas, I fear
This thing will not get done
I never had the courage and I
Was presumed to be just lazy
