Poesi mens vi puster 85

Society

Oh, it’s a mystery to me
We have a greed with which we have agreed
And you think you have to want more than you need
Until you have it all you won’t be free

Society, you’re a crazy breed
Hope you’re not lonely without me…

When you want more than you have
You think you need…
And when you think more than you want
Your thoughts begin to bleed
I think I need to find a bigger place
Because when you have more than you think
You need more space

Society, you’re a crazy breed
Hope you’re not lonely without me…
Society, crazy indeed
Hope you’re not lonely without me…

There’s those thinking, more-or-less, less is more
But if less is more, how you keeping score?
Means for every point you make, your level drops
Kinda like you’re starting from the top
You can’t do that…

Society, you’re a crazy breed
Hope you’re not lonely without me…
Society, crazy indeed
Hope you’re not lonely without me…

Society, have mercy on me
Hope you’re not angry if I disagree…
Society, crazy indeed
Hope you’re not lonely without me…

– Eddie Vedder

fra Into the Wild (2007)

Denne posten er fordi Into the wild er en fantastisk film med et minst like fantastisk soundtrack som jeg nok en gang er fullstendig hekta på og hører gjennom gang på gang, og jeg skulle så inderlig ønske at Eddie Vedder kunne gi ut soloalbum hvor vi fikk mer i samme stil. Ikke noe galt med Pearl Jam, men disse sangene treffer meg på en helt annen måte. Og jeg vil ha mer av det.
