Nothing as It Seems (Key Arena - Seattle, WA 10/22/2001) Songtext
von Pearl Jam

It don′t feel like home
He's a little out

All these words alone
Is nothing like your poem

Putting in and putting in
Don′t feel like methadone
A scratching voice all alone
It's nothing like your baritone

It's nothing as it seems
All that he needs, it′s home
And all that he sees
Is nothing he believes, it′s home

One uninviting chromosome
A blanket like the ozone


It's nothing as it seems
All that he needs is home
And all that he sees
Is nothing he can believe

Saving it for a sunny day
Something maybe, two tone
Anything of his own
Chip off the corner stone

Who′s kidding? Rainy day
A one way ticket headstone
An occupation overthrown
A whisper through a megaphone

It's nothing as it seems
All that he needs, it′s home
And all that he sees
Is something he can believe, it's home

And all you can free
A little bittersweet, it′s home
It's nothing as it seems
The little that you see, it's home
