Lightning Bolt

Pearl Jam

She comes on like a stone 
But you don’t know where from she was thrown 
Like a burning meteor from miles high 
Shes looking for a place to land 
She said you got yourself some sand 
And whatever you’d reply she took as yes 

She comes out the deep? 
With her newly planted seeds and soon you’re 
Thrown down on your knees and then you’re dead 
Then before you know the weeds are all beastly overgrown 
With all the wild seeds he sews in your sleeve 

You’ve got to know you’ll never let her go 
Lightning bolt!
Lightning bolt!
Lightning bolt!

Always something and never nothing 
Isn’t that the way we’re taught to be, to be? 
Through the worn our pages 
In stages when you knew not who to be 
Yeah! yeah! 
Until the lightning strike sets you free, yeah!

You’ve got to know you’ll never let her go 
She is lightning bolt!
Lightning bolt!
Lightning bolt!

The crashing stormy waves are over shoreline everyday 
Until the castle on her waves turns to sand 
She holds her lovely breast as her birds fall from her nest
Flying towards the great northwest, yeah you were here

And with no repair in sight
There is no god with such might
As you open her world wide with such a view
And your death will soon arrive as she finally decides
That all her problems, they won’t die with you

A-yeah! a-yeah! a-yeah!
Never let her go
She’s a lightning bolt
Never let her go
She’s true

She's rock 'n roll
She's a lightning bolt
Uncontrollable
Like you
