Songtexte Grievance - Live - Pearl Jam

Have a drink they're buying
Bottom of bottle of denial

Big guy, big eye watching me
Have to wonder what it sees
Progress laced with ramifications
Freedom's big blur

Break the innocent when they're proud
Raise those sticks them bring them down
If they fail to obey
Ah, if they fail to obey, yeah, yeah

For every tool they lend us
A loss of independence

I pledge my grievance to the flag
'Cause you don't give blood then take it back again
Oh, we're all deserving something more

Progress taste it, invest it all
Champagne breakfast for everyone

Break the innocent when they're proud
Raise those stakes then bring 'em down
If they fail to obey
Oh, if they fail to obey

I pledge my grievance to the flag
'Cause don't give blood then take it back again
Oh, we're all deserving something more

I want to breathe part of the scene
I want to taste everyone I see
I want to run when I'm up high
I want to run to the sea
I want to life to be
I just want to be
I will feel alive as long as I am free
