Worldwide Suicide: Lyrics



I felt the earth on Monday

It moved beneath my feet

In the form of a morning paper

Laid out for me to see

I saw his face in the corner picture

I recognized the name

Could not stop staring at the

Face I'd never see again



It's a shame to awake, in a world of pain

What does it mean when war has taken over?

It's the same every day in a hell man-made

What can be saved, and who will be left to hold her?



The whole world...

World Over...

Yeah, it's a world wide suicide



The whole world...

World Over

It's a world wide suicide



Medals on a wooden mantle

Next to a handsome face

That the president took for granted

Writing checks that others pay

And in all the madness

Thought becomes numb and naive

So much to talk about and

Nothing for them to say



It's the same everyday and the wave won't break

Tell you to pray, while the devil's on their shoulder

Laying claim to the take that soldiers save

Tell them to quit it, the truth's already out there



The whole world...

World Over...

Yeah, it's a world wide suicide



The whole world...

World Over...

It's a world wide suicide



Looking in the eyes of the fallen

You got to know there is another, another, another, another, another...

Way



It's a shame to awake,in a world aflame

What does it mean when war has taken over?

It's the same everyday and the wave won't break

Tell you to pray, while the devil's on their shoulder



The whole world...

World Over...

It's a world wide suicide

Answer 2

Eddie Vedder and the guys in Pearl Jam are very strongly against the war and the state of the current government. Instead of preaching to everyone about their beliefs, they decided to put their feelings to words and music. Almost the whole album is based off pure feeling about how they feel and World Wide Suicide is basically about the Iraq war.



I know tons about Pearl Jam, let me know if you need to know anything else about them.

Answer 5

"World Wide Suicide" was the first single by the band Pearl Jam from their self-titled album, which was released on May 2, 2006. The lyrics depict anger against the war in Iraq, and criticize the US government in a subtle manner.



In late February, the band made a 15-second clip of the song available on the Internet, which was then played on numerous North American radio stations. The snippet revealed a hard-rocking sound with a noted return to the dominant vocal styles of Vedder's earlier work. It was first played on US radio on March 3, 2006 on KNDD (Seattle). On March 6, 2006 "World Wide Suicide" was made available via the band's official site to download for free. It was released to general airplay on March 7. Between then and March 12, it was played over 1900 times on modern rock stations in the United States, meaning that it was one of the fastest-growing alternative rock songs of 2006 in the US. The single hit digital music stores on March 14 accompanied by the upbeat B-Side "Unemployable", also on the new album.



It entered the Billboard Modern Rock Tracks chart at #3, making it one of the highest debuts of the last several years and became the band's first #1 on that chart since "Who You Are" in 1996. "World Wide Suicide" was also the band's first #1 single of any sort in 8 years (since "Given to Fly" hit #1 in 1998). The song spent a total of three weeks at #1 on the Modern Rock chart. Without selling any hard copies of the single or distributing CDs to radio programmers, consultants and industry contacts, "World Wide Suicide" became the first digitally delivered #1 song in Canadian radio history.



On April 15, 2006, "World Wide Suicide" was premiered live on Saturday Night Live. This marked Pearl Jam's first appearance on SNL since 1994. On April 19, 2006, "World Wide Suicide" was played during an episode of CSI: NY entitled "Run Silent, Run Deep". "World Wide Suicide" was also transcribed in the October 2006 issue of Guitar World. The song was named #11 in Rolling Stone's "The 100 Best Songs of the Year" for 2006 and was also named #54 in the New York Post's "206 best songs to download of 2006."



Live performances of "World Wide Suicide" can be found on the Live at the Gorge 05/06 box set. A performance of the song mixed from various dates in Italy is also included on the DVD Immagine In Cornice.
