Pearl Jam — Speed of Light

Unreleased demo from Pearl Jam’s new album, Backspacer.

Yesterdays how quick they change all lost and long gone now
Want to remember anything moving at the speed of sound
With the speed of sound

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

Can I forgive what I cannot forget
And live a lie?
I could give him one more try

Why deny this drive inside just looking for some peace
Everytime I get me some it gets the best of me
Not much left to see

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

The whisper in the dark
Is that you or just my thoughts?
I’m 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
