Severed Hand (Melbourne 2006-11-13) Songtext
von Pearl Jam

Big man stands behind an open door
Said, "Leave your lady on the cement floor"
"Got some kicks, wanna take a ride?"
I said, "Yeah"
"Take your pick, leave yourself behind"
I said "Yeah"

I′ve no fear but for falling down
So look out below, I am falling now
Oh please understand, I just need my friend
A way, a way, a way home


Tried to walk, found a severed hand
Recognized it from the wedding band
Said, "It's okay, do you want some more?"
I said "Yeah"
"You′ll see dragons after three or four"
I said "Yeah"

"Understand, I'm not falling down"
I said "Look around, the room's taller now"
I can′t close my eyes, ′cause I see the sound
In waves, in waves, lets me stay calm

Oh, if I don't lose control
Explore and not explore
A preternatural other plane
With the power to maintain
Like a tear in all we know
Once dissolved, we are free to grow
"What is human? What is more?"
I′ll answer this
When I get home

Woah
