Eddie Vedder

When i walk beside her
i am the better man
when i look to leave her
i always stagger back again

Once i built an ivory tower
so i could worship from above
when i climb down to be set free
she took me in again

There's a big
a big hard sun
beating on the big people
in the big hard world

When she comes to greet me
she is mercy at my feet
i see her inner charm
she just throws it back at me

Once i dug an early grave
to find a better land
she just smiled and laughed at me
and took her rules back again

There's a big
a big hard sun
beating on the big people
in the big hard world

Once i stood to lose her
and i saw what i had done
bowed down and threw away the hours
of her garden and her sun

So i tried to want her
i turned to see her weep
40 days and 40 nights
and its still coming down on me

There's a big
a big hard sun
beating on the big people
in the big hard world
