As part of the virtual fundraising event Venture Into Cures on November 18, Pearl Jam frontman Eddie Vedder unveiled two incredibly moving solo songs.
As well as the brand-new Matter Of Time, Ed also unveiled an updated version of Say Hi, which is a song that was originally written for Eli Meyer, “...
As we arise with the sun in our eyes
Catch a break from the dark
Still times when nothing's alright
As we bandage up all our parts
Well I’m a builder of bridges
And I could fly us up to the moon
When your time is limited
Well, nothing happens too soon
Navigate, come find a way
Our differences be damned
So much space between us
In the distance of our hands
Stakes are raised to elevate
Just a second to understand
What you give, this will to live
You got the cure, I'll fight the fight
It's just a matter of time
Submit the evidence and take the stand
Let the truth testify
If I were but a grain of sand
I’d still resist this tide
But we're not alone on this crowded shore
And times they do demand
Shrink the space between us
A reaching of a hand
Stakes are raised to elevate
Just a second to understand
What you give, this will to live
You got the cure, I'll fight the fight
It's just a matter of time
A matter of time
Just a matter of time
A matter of time
Matter of time
Matter of time
A matter of time
A matter of time
I found myself when I found my tribe
Now I know what it's like to feel alive
I'll take the joy, I'll take the pain
We're just like you, we're all the same
Matter of time
Matter of time
Matter of time
Matter of time
(Join together) Matter of time
(Join together) Matter of time
(Join together) Matter of time
(Join together) Matter of time
