Thumbing My Way
Vedder
I have not been home since you left me long ago
I'm thumbing my way back to heaven
counting steps, walking backwards on the road
counting my way back to heaven
I can't be free with what's locked inside of me
there's no wrong or right but I'm sure there's good and bad
the (you're?) questions make the rule again
no matter how cold the winter, there's a springtime ahead
I'm thumbing my way back to heaven
wish that I could hold you
wish that I had
thinkin' 'bout heaven
I recall the role, thinking that's what held me back
and in time I realize it's now a rope around my neck
I can't see what's next from this lonely overpass
hang my head and count the steps as another car goes past
I turned my back now there's no turning back
all the rusted signs we ignore throughout our life
choosing the shiny ones instead
no matter how cold the winter, there's a springtimeaheadthat's how I ??
I'm just walkin' about, every once in a while I get a ride
I'm thumbing my way back to heavenI'm thumbing my way back to heaven
I'm thumbing my way back to heaven
I'm thumbing my way back to heaven
I'm thumbing my way back to heaven
thank to MsBuannan for posting them...

How fucking sad is that..."all the rusted signs we ignore throughout our life

Nice lyrics, but I wonder if this is gonna be the Eddie Vedder divorce/WTC album

Well, I guess I could try...
First off, I don't think 'heaven' is the place upstairs, instead it's referring to the word that we use to describe a place of bliss and happiness.
I think that it's about trying to get back to where you were when your live was a 'heaven.' No choice really is wrong or right in our lives because really what we choose is right in our own minds. Yet there is always conciquences, some good some bad. We get stuck with them, and sometimes they hurt worse than what we had before.
"Wish that I had been thinking 'bout heaven" Ahh, we always seem to take things for grantide. In this case, in a relationship. We think that someone will always be there, and when we find out that they really aren't and sometimes it's too late to realize that.
There's all these things that shine in our eyes and make us want to have that shine, instead of the same old thing that we have. We sometimes choose to go for that nice new shiny face, love, or what-have-you only to realize that the rust on the old face wasn't there at all, and the new one up close is just as rusty as what you thought you had.
We get help along a road that we're walking, but there is alot more time where we spend it by ourselves thinking about when things were great. A 'heaven' is something we're always looking to have.
That's what I get anyway....regrets hurt...

hey, divorce/breakup albums are often times the best an artist releases...
think of "blood on the tracks" or "heartbreaker" or "adore" as examples
just my two cents

Broken Hearted
Don't mind me
Just let me be myself(?), so far away
I don't need no sympathy
The word, word it's overplayed
I'm alright, it's just tonight
I can't play the part
I'm alright
It's alright
It's just a broken heart
Don't have eyes for the world outside
They're closed and turned within
Trying to find light inside
It's lit but going dim
I'm alright
It's just tonight
I can't play the part
I'm alright
It's alright
It's just,
Just, just, just, just a broken heart
I thought with the $50 tickets, this would be a classy crowd," Vedder

Can't Keep
I wanna shake
I wanna wind down
I wanna leave
this grind and shout
I lived all this life
like an ocean in disguise
I don't live forever
you can't keep me, here ohh
I want to race
with the sun down
I want a last breath
that I won't let out
forget ever being
the bad feelings
it 's just me
I won't wait for answers
you can't keep me, here ohhhhhhh
I want to rise
as in goodnight
I want to take
a look on the other side
I lived all these lives
it's been a wonder, for that night
I can't live forever
you can't keep me, here ohh
Just wanted to put them all in one post /images/smile.gif
this is going to be good :)

Thanks Jake I had not seen the other new song yet, I hope they put that one up in the next few days.
They said maybe this weekend they will do another song or two, but not the whole show, if they do just the new songs, I will be pretty happy/images/tongue.gif/images/wink.gif/images/smile.gif
I know someday you will have a beautiful life
