Pearl Jam
Grieviance - Live in Barcelona, Spain 05-May-2000
[Verse 1]
Have a drink they're buying
Bottom of, bottle of denial

[Chorus 1]
Big guy, big eye, watching me
Have to wonder what it sees (Sin)
Progress laced with ramifications
Freedom's big plunge

[Chorus 2]
Pull the innocent from a crowd
Raise the sticks then bring them down
If they fail to obey, oh, if they fail to obey

[Verse 2]
For every tool they lend us
A loss of independence

[Chorus 3]
I pledge my grievance to the flag
Because you don't give blood... to take it back again
Oh we're all deserving something more

[Chorus 1]
Progress, taste it, invest-it-all
Champagne breakfast for everyone
[Chorus 2]
Break the innocent when they're proud
Raise the stakes, then bring em down
If they fail to obey, oh, if they fail to obey

[Chorus 3]
Pledge your grievance to the flag
Because you don't give blood, then take it back again
Oh we're all deserving something more

[Outro]
I want to breathe
Follow the scene
I want to taste
Everyone I see
I want to run when I'm up high
I want to run into the sea
I only want life to be
I just want to be
I will feel alive, as long as I am free
