Pearl Jam - World Wide Suicide lyrics

[Pearl Jam - World Wide Suicide lyrics]

I felt the earth on Monday
It moved beneath my feet
In the form of a morning paper
Laid out for me to see
Saw his face in a corner picture
I recognized the name
Could not stop staring at the
Face I'd never see again

It's a shame to awake in a world of pain
What does it mean when a war has taken over
It's the same everyday in a hell man made
What can be saved
And who will be left to hold her?

The whole world, world over
It's a world wide suicide
The whole world, world over
It's a world wide suicide

Medals on a wooden mantle
Next to a handsome face
That the president took for granted
Writing checks that others pay
And in all the madness
Thought becomes numb and naïve
So much to talk about, yeah
Nothing for to say

It's the same everyday, the wave won't break
Tell you to pray while the
Devil's on their shoulder
Laying claim to the take
That our soldiers save
Does not equate and the
Truth's already out there

The whole world, world over
It's a world wide suicide
The whole world, world over
It's a world wide suicide

Looking in the eyes of the fallen
You got to know there's another
Another, another, another, another way

It's a shame to awake in a world of pain
What does it mean when a war has taken over
It's the same everyday and
The wave won't break
Tell you to pray while the
Devil's on their shoulder

The whole world, world over
It's a world wide suicide
The whole world, world over
It's a world wide suicide
The whole world, world over
It's a world wide suicide
The whole world, world over
It's a world wide suicide, yeah
