“Gone” – Pearl Jam – I Am So Relating Right Now

“If Nothing is Everything then I have it All”

Pearl Jam is my favorite band, and I love Pearl Jam consistently, meaning; I don’t continue to buy their music out of just loyalty (as I sometimes feel compelled to do for Duran Duran, my first favorite band). I buy Pearl Jam’s music because it is outstanding… and out of loyalty. 😉 Out of their song, Nothingman (Vitalogy), came the absolute genuine line of all time (IMO) –– & resonated so much with me that I have it inked, permanently, in my skin:

My StormCloud-Lightning Bolt Tattoo

P.S. – That location fucking hurt. Just sayin’. LOL…

That said, Post-Divorce Me finds myself vibrating to Pearl Jam’s “Gone”.


No more upset mornings
No more tired evenings
This American dream
I am disbelieving

When the gas in my tank
Feels like money in the bank
Gonna blow it all this time
Take me one last ride

For the lights of this city
They only look good when I’m speeding
Gonna leave em all behind me
Cause this time

I’m gone

Long gone
This time I’m letting go of it all
So long
Cause this time I’m gone

In the far off distance
As my tail-lights fade
No one thinks to witness
But they will someday

Feel like a question is forming
and the answers far
I will be what i could be
Once I get out of this town

For the lights of this city
They have lost all feeling
Gonna leave em all behind me
Cause this time

I’m gone

Long gone
This time I’m letting go of it all
So long
Long gone, I’m letting go of it all
Cause this time I’m gone

If nothing is everything
If nothing is everything, I’ll have it all
If nothing is everything
If nothing is everything, I’ll have it all

I am gone

Words cannot express just how much that IS Me right now. Perhaps this feeling of needing to Get the Fuck Outta Here will pass… I’m not sure. Currently, it just feels like that need is getting stronger each hour, each day.

Hmmm… Bozeman, Montana… Calling?
