insignificance

All in all it`s no one`s fault. Excuses turn to carbon walls.
Blame it all on chemical intercourse.
The swallowed seeds of arrogance breeding in the thoughts of ten-thousand fools that fight irrelevance.

The full moon is dead skin. The one down here`s wearing thin.
So set up the ten pins as the human tide rolls in.
Like a ball that`s spinning.

Bombs dropping down overhead. On the ground.
It`s instilled to want to live.
Bombs dropping down. Please forgive our hometown in our insignificance.

`Turn the jukebox up,` he said. Dancing in irreverence.
Play C-3. Let the song protest.

The plates began to shift. Perfect lefts come rolling in.
I was alone and far away, hey. When I heard the band start playing.
On the lip they take off.

Bombs dropping down overhead. Underground.
It`s instilled to want to live.
Bombs dropping down. Please forgive our hometown in our insignificance.

Feel like resonance of distance. In the blood the iron lies.

It`s instilled to want to live.
Bombs dropping down. Please forgive our hometown in our insignificance.
Oh, in our insignificance, oh.

Pearl Jam
