Pearl Jam Dissident (live)

She nursed him there over a night.
I wasn't so sure she wanted him to stay.
What to say? What to say?
But soon she was down, soon he was low.
At a quarter past, a holy no.
She had to turn around.

When she couldn't hold, oh, she folded.
A dissident is here.
Escape is never the safest path.
Oh, a dissidence, a dissident is here.

And to this day, she's glided on.
Always home but so far away, like a word misplaced.
Nothing said, what a waste.
But when she had contact with the conflict,
There was meaning but she sold him to the state.
She had to turn around.

When she couldn't hold, she folded.
A dissident is here.
Escape is never the safest path.
Oh, a dissidence, a dissident is here.
Oh, oh, oh...

She gave him away when she couldn't hold. No, she folded.
A dissident is here.
Escape is never the safest path.
Oh, a dissident, a dissident is here.
Oh, couldn't hold on. She couldn't hold.
No, she folded. A dissident is here.
Escape is never the safest place.
Oh, a dissident is here.
