Pearl Jam - Severed Hand lyrics

[Pearl Jam - Severed Hand lyrics]

Big man stands behind an open door
Said, "Leave your lady on the cement floor"

"Got some kicks, wanna take a ride?"
I said, "yeah"
"Take your pick, leave yourself behind"
I said, "yeah"

I've no fear but for falling down
So look out below, I am falling now
Oh, please, understand, I just need
My friend a way, a way, a way home

Tried to walk, found a severed hand
Recognized it from the wedding band

"It's okay, do you want some more?"
I said, "yeah"
"You'll see dragons after 3 or 4"
I said, "yeah"

"Understand, I'm not falling down"
I said, "Look around, the room's taller now"
I can't close my eyes
'cause I see the sound in waves
In waves, lets me stay calm

Oh, if I don't lose control
Explore and not explode
A preternatural other plane
With the power to maintain
Like a tear in all we know
Once dissolved, we are free to grow
"What is human? What is more?"
I'll answer this when I get home
