Some Pearl Jam Lyrics...

"Given to Fly"

He could've tuned in, tuned in
But he tuned out
a bad time, nothing could save him
Alone in a corridor, waiting, locked out
He got up outta there, ran for hundreds of miles
He made it to the ocean, had a smoke in a tree
The wind rose up, set him down on his knee

A wave came crashing like a fist to the jaw
Delivered him wings, "Hey, look at me now"
Arms wide open with the sea as his floor
Oh, power, oh

He's.. flying
Whole
High.. wide, oh

He floated back down 'cause he wanted to share
His key to the locks on the chains he saw everywhere
But first he was stripped and then he was stabbed
by faceless men, well.. fuckers
He still stands

And he still gives his love, he just gives it away
The love he receives is the love that is saved
And sometimes is seen a strange spot in the sky
A human being that was given to fly

High.. flying
Oh, oh
High.. flying
Oh, oh
He's flying
Oh, oh

Jim and Kerri saw Pearl Jam in NYC and it must have been on the weekend of July 9 in 2003. He was really impressed and excited that he saw them, especially since they are his brother Gabe's absolute, all-time favorite group! This song was on their playlist that night! Keri...I'd love to hear about that concert...if you care to share! :-)
