[Verse 1]
Lives opened and trashed
"Look ma, watch me crash"
No time to question
Why'd nothing last
Grasp and hold on
We’re dyin' fast
Soon be over
And I will relent

[Chorus]
Let the sun climb, oh, burn 'way my mask
Three days, and maybe longer
Won’t ever find me here

[Verse 2]
Under your tongue
I'm like a tab
I will give you what
You're not supposed to have
Under my breath
I swear by sin
For better or for worse
A best we began

[Chorus]
Let the sun climb, oh, burn 'way my mask
Three days, and not much longer
Shed my skin at last

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
Let the sun shine, burn away my mask
Three days, and not much longer
Won't ever find me here

Let the sun climb, oh, burn 'way my mask
Three days, and not a fuckin' second longer

[Outro]
Let my spirit pass
Uh
This is, this is
This is, this is
This is, this is
My
Last exit

Founded in 1990 in Seattle, Pearl Jam is one of the most successful bands out of the grunge movement, if not of the whole alternative rock scene from the early 90s. The group started with Stone Gossard (guitar) and Jeff Ament (bass), veterans of the proto-grunge scene, recording a demo along with local guitarist Mike McCready. Once the tape passed along, it attracted a San Diego-based singer, Eddie Vedder. Along with drummer Dave Krusen, they signed with Epic Records and released Ten in 1991, which by the following year was becoming one of the most successful debut albums ever.

Growing uncomfortable with success, the following albums went for a more anguished and experimental sound, and the band’s notorious activism had its most prominent case once they boycotted Ticketmaster, accusing them of price-gouging fans. In the meantime, various drummers passed through the band, with percussion only settling once Soundgarden’s Matt Cameron joined them in the tour for 1998’s Yield.

With 10 studio albums and various live recordings (including “Official Bootlegs” of basically every concert the band performed since 2000), Pearl Jam has sold nearly 32 million records in the U.S. and an estimated 60 million worldwide.
