"Lightning Bolt" lyrics - PEARL JAM

She comes on like a stone
But you don't know where from she was thrown
Like a burning meteor from miles high

Looking for a place to land
She said, "Have you got yourself some sand?"
And whatever you replied, she took as yes

Now she comes after thee
With her newly planted seeds and soon
You're prone down on your knees and there you dig

And then before you know the weeds are
Obesely overgrown with all the
Wild seed she sows in your sleep

You gotta know you'll never let her go
She's a lightning bolt
Lightning bolt
Lightning bolt

Always something and never nothing
Isn't that the way we're taught to be? To be?
Flipping through the worn out pages
And stages when you knew not who to be

Yeah, yeah
Until the lightning strike sets you free, yeah

You gotta know you'll never let her go
She's a lightning bolt
Lightning bolt
Lightning bolt

Crashing stormy waves erode her
Shoreline everyday until the
Castle of her ways turns to sand

She holds her lovely breast
As her birds fall from the nest
Flying towards the great northwest, yeah yeah yeah

And with no repair in sight
There is no God with such might
As to open her world wide with subterfuge

And your death will soon arrive
As she finally decides
That all her problems, they won't die with you

Ay yeah
Ay yeah
Ay yeah

Never let her go
She's your lightning bolt
Never let her go
She's true
She's your rock hey oh
She's a lightning bolt
Uncontrollable like you
