Hard Sun

From the soundtrack to Into the Wild. I think I ranted about that movie earlier. Basically I was just so mad at the main character for being an idiot. So stupid! Grr!! If you watch the whole video it pretty much shows you the whole movie except for the ending when he starve to death because he's an idiot! Clearly I'm still pissed at him.

But that is not the point - the point is I love the song "Hard Sun" and Eddie Vedder has just the right voice for it.

When I walk beside her I am a better man
When I look to leave her I always stagger back again
Once I built and ivory tower so I could worship from above
When I climbed 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
When I see her inner charms she 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 bruise back again.

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

When go to cross that river she is comfort by my side
When try to understand she just opens up her hands

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

Once I stood to lose her when I saw what I had done
Bound down and threw away the hours of her garden and son
So I tried to warn 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
There’s a big, a big hard sun beating on the big people in the big hard world...
