OFFICIAL lyrics for those interested...
courtesy of Kiki...Scott's personal manager. I have run to the ocean Through the horizon, chased the Son I've waited for the light to come And at times I would give up You have wrapped your loving arms round me And with your love I'll overcome You have loved me when I was weak You have given unselfishly Kept me from falling, falling Everywhere but my knees You set me free To live my life You became my reason to survive the great divide You set me free I've been on heaven's doorstep With the door open, one foot inside I've cried out "God, give me answers" "Please hush child, I'll tell you why You have loved Me when you were weak You have given unselfishly Kept you from falling, falling Everywhere but your knees" You set me free To live my life You became my reason to survive the great divide You set me free To live my life You became my reason to survive the great divide You set me free You set me free Ooh our love is beautiful Ooh ooh isn't this beautiful? Times have changed but You remain my everything Our love is beautiful Stood by my side while we survive the great divide Isn't this beautiful? You set me free To live my life You became my reason to survive the great divide You set me free To live my life You became my reason to survive the great divide You set me free To live my life You became my reason to survive the great divide You set me free You set me free You set me free |

I am a huge Pearl Jam fan and Creed fan. You may think that it's because of the lead singers but in fact both have different styles. Scott and Eddie sound nothing a like and neither share the same presence in there music. 2 different people. I like Eddies' '70s rock style. Scott moves me with his music and lyrics. I have been listening to Pearl Jam for over 10 years and not once has the band ever just wowed me. Creed/Scott's music has though. It really annoys me when people compare 2 individuals like Scott and Eddie. People did the same thing to Scott Wieland from STP. Pointless.

For the last time, I don't think they write similar, play similar music, or act similar. They just have similar voices. And I didn't bring it up. Titan did.

Personally, i could have done without this part of the song, i believe it takes away from the epic side of the song and really downplays it quite a bit, other than that, i really like the song the more i listen to it, its just that this part of the whole song pretty much ruins the ending. He affects his voice too much and kinda slurrs this part a little. In My Opinion...

Oh sure, blame it on me. Like I said before, if I were a fan who did not like this song, I would not be that concerned about the rest of the CD. I highly doubt that every song on The Great Divide is going to have this same theme. Scott even said himself that a couple of songs have a "sexual" aspect to them. That alone makes me think that you'll find a good amount of secular lyrics on this CD, which is alright with me, but then again, I would be happy either way. Of course non-believers aren't going to like this type of lyrics. It's understandable and if I weren't a believer, I'd feel the same way. Lyrics are a very personal aspect of music. I do think that non-believers will find something to like, lyrically, on this new CD. I fully expect the lyrics to be very Creed-like, just maybe not in the aspect of questioning God. We'll see, though.

Hahah, I wasn't really blaming or pointing the finger at anyone but just stating my view of the comments about Scott and Eddie having similar voices. I must be going tone deaf because I don't hear it.

Yeah, I knew you weren't. Uncertain and I tease each other every now and then, so that's why I said that. I hear a similarity between Vedder and Stapp, but not that much of a similarity. They're two different vocalists.

I am about as religious as you can get. I mean, anyone can attest to just HOW MUCH of a believer I am. BUT, I still don't like it when bands who CLAIM they aren't Christian (i.e. Creed) do a bunch of Christian lyrics. I don't mind Switchfoot (well, I mind them, but not for this reason, lol) because they don't hide the fact that they put God and Christianity into their lyrics. And they aren't even as opaque about it as Stapp is! But yeah the lyrics aren't even my biggest problem with the song. The unoriginality and complete lack of anything substantial fits that bill.

I was not impressed at all.... it lacked orginality.... it has the same recycled stapp-vocal-cadence as every thing else from the latter half of "wethered" and "relearn love" the man needs to maybe listen to some new music and get some new insapiration the lyrics are unimpressive I mean how many times will people buy the same stuff?
this is all IMHO

Is it really that bad that it maybe old school.... I mean I love this song and Im glad Scott didn't change his ways of writing. Look how many people Creed help with their lyrics and now who knows how many Scott will help with his lyrics. Does anyone agree????

Agreed!! It has nothing to do with being a believer or not -the lyrics are bad! -this is the point!...it has nothing to do with religion stuff ...it has to do with GOOD SONG/LYRICS which GD is definitely not a remote example ... But i have to addmit I was not expecting another religious song like RL...even though I always loved the "messages " inside Creed's songs, for instance, Faceless Man is full of biblical references and one of the most beautiful songs they had.
