Pearl Jam
Speed of Sound
[Verse 1]
Yesterdays, how quick they change
All lost and long gone now
It's hard to remember anything
Moving at the speed of sound
Moving with the speed of sound

[Chorus]
And yet I'm still holding tight
To this dream of distant light
And that somehow I'll survive
But this night has been a long one
Waiting on a sun that just don't come

[Post-Chorus 1]
Can I forgive what I
Cannot forget and live a lie?
I could give it one more try

[Verse 2]
Why deny this drive inside?
Just looking for some peace
Every time I get me some
It gets the best of me
Not much left, you see
[Chorus]
And yet I'm still holding tight
To this dream of distant light
And that somehow I'll survive
But this night has been a long one
Waiting on a word that never comes

[Post-Chorus 2]
A whisper in the dark
Is that you or just my thoughts
Wide awake and reaching out
It's gone so quiet now
Could it be I'm farther out?
Moving faster than the speed of sound
