Indifference - Pearl Jam
I will light the match this mornin’, so I won’t be alone
Watch as she lies silent, for soon that will be gone
Oh, I will stand arms outstretched, pretend I’m free to roam
Oh, I will make my way, through, one more day in Hell…
How much difference does it make
How much difference does it make
I will hold the candle til it burns up my arm
Oh, I’ll keep takin’ punches until their will grows tired
Oh, I will stare the sun down until my eyes go blind
Hey, I won’t change direction, and I won’t change my mind
How much difference does it make
Mmm, how much difference does it make…how much difference…
I’ll swallow poison, until I grow immune
I will scream my lungs out till it fills this room
How much difference
How much difference
How much difference does it make
How much difference does it make

The One Alone
Within my heart there are a thousand mansions,
With room enough for all cares and concerns,
A place to give with room to enter,
But no one knows, Who is the renter?
But still in my heart there is an emptier,
A place much darker and harder to find,
Barley a shack does stand here,
Amidst the darkness and the fear,
Where skeletons live and trash is thrown,
The one inside lives all alone,
Lives alone and works the same,
Cares after the mansions and has no name,
But should the mansions ever fall,
The one alone will have nothing at all.
————————————
When you done all you knew you could
And absorbed all the the hurt to your own
Til there was nothing left to give only emptiness
Sometimes that which is needed most
Seems used up and outta stock
That doesn’t equal a lack of caring
Just broken depleatedness
