  • All the thoughts you never see
    You are always thinking
    Brain is wide, the brain is deep
    Oh, are you sinking?

    Feel the path of every day
    Which road you taking?
    Breathing hard, making hay
    Yeah, this is living

    Look for love in evidence
    That you're worth keeping
    Swallowed whole in negatives
    It's so sad and sickening

    Feel the air up above
    Oh, pool of blue sky
    Fill the air up with love
    All black with starlight

    Feel the sky blanket you
    With gems and rhinestones
    See the path cut by the moon
    For you to walk on

    For you to walk on

    Nothing left, nothing left
    Nothing there, nothing here,
    Nothing left, nothing left
    Nothing there, nothing left,
    Nothing left, nothing left
    Nothing there, nothing here

    See the path cut by the moon
    For you to walk on
    See the waves on distant shores
    Awaiting your arrival

    Dream the dreams of other men
    You'll be no one's rival
    Dream the dreams of others then
    You will be no one's rival

    You will be no one's rival

    A distant time, a distant space
    That's where we're living
    A distant time, a distant place
    So what ya giving?
    What ya giving? Writer/s: EDDIE VEDDER
