In My Tree

Eddie VedderUp here in my tree...
Newspapers matter not to me...
No more crowbars to my head...
I'm trading stories with the leaves instead...

Wave to all my friends...
They don't seem to notice me...
All their eyes trained on the street...
Sidewalk cigarettes and scenes...

Up here so high I start to escape
Up here so high, the sky I scrape
I'm so high, I hold just one breath here within my chest
Just like innocence...

I remember him...
I swore I knew everything...
They say knowledge is a dream...
He's growing up just like me...

I'm so light, the wind he shakes
I'm so high, the sky I scrape...
I'm so light I hold just one breath and go back to my nest
Sleep with innocence...

Up here so high, the bars they break...
Up here so high, the sky I scrape...
Had my eyes peeled both wide open, and I got a glimpse...
Of my innocence...

oi. encontrei esse blog por acaso, procurava por "the sky i scrape" e um dos resultados deu aqui. também sou uma admiradora do Pearl Jam. achei que você talvez gostasse de uma outra versão da letra, a que ele cantou no Live @ The Garden:

up here in my tree, yeah
newspapers matter not to me, yeah
no more crowbars to my head, yeah
i'm trading stories with the leaves instead, yeah
wave to all my friends, yeah
they don't seem to notice me, no
all their eyes are on the street, yo, oh
sidewalk cigarettes and scenes,
i'm so high the boughs they break
i'm so high the wind it shakes
but i'm still holding on to my innocence
eddie's found a home
oh at last the trees fall
eddie's blue sky home
oh at last the trees fall
i remember when, yeah
i swore i knew everything, oh yeah
oh knowledge is a tree, yeah
it's growing up just like me, yeah
i'm so light the wind he shakes
i'm so high the boughs they break
but i'm still holding on to my innocence...
