My favorite Pearl Jam song. Every time the song begins I instantly get taken back to the fall of 1993 (my freshman year of college) when I went to my local record store in the mall to buy the Vs. album.

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
She nursed him there, ooh, over a night
I wasn't so sure she wanted him to stay
What to say? What to say?
But soon she was down, soon he was low
At a quarter past, a holy no
She had to turn around

[Chorus]
When she couldn't hold, oh, she folded
A dissident is here
Escape is never the safest path, oh
A dissidence, a dissident is here

[Verse 2]
And to this day, she's glided on
Always home but so far away, like a word misplaced
Nothing said, what a waste
But when she had contact with the conflict
There was meaning, but she sold him to the state
She had to turn around

[Chorus]
When she couldn't hold, she folded
A dissident is here
Escape is never the safest path, oh
A dissidence, a dissident is here, oh!

[Bridge]
(Oh)
(Oh, oh-oh-oh)

[Chorus]
She gave him away when she couldn't hold, no, she folded
A dissident is here
Escape is never the safest path, oh
A dissidence, a dissident is here

[Outro]
Oh, couldn't hold on, she couldn't hold, no, she folded
A dissident is here
Escape is never the safest place, oh
A dissident is here

[SmilePls]

She nursed him there
Ooh, over a night
Wasn't so sure she wanted him to stay
What to say, what to say
But soon she was down, soon he was low
At a quarter past a holy no
She had to turn around
When she couldn't hold, oh, she folded
A dissident is here
Escape is never the safest path
Oh, a dissident, a dissident is here
And to this day, she's glided on
Always home but so far away
Like a word misplaced
Nothing to say, what a waste
When she had contact with the conflict
There was meanin', but she sold him to the state
She had to turn around
When she couldn't hold, she folded
A dissident is here
Escape is never the safest path
Oh, a dissident, a dissident is here, oh
She gave him away
When she couldn't hold, no, she folded
A dissident is here
Escape is never the safest path
Oh, a dissident, a dissident is here, oh
Couldn't hold on
She couldn't hold, no, she folded
A dissident is here
Escape is never the safest place, oh
A dissident is here

This was my favorite Pearl Jam song in the 90's. Now it's Release, which is the best song of all time.

[danielburns]

this song went to #3 on the mainstream rock charts in 1994!!!

[Miniculthero]

Gossard takes the absolute piss here but veddars hook and lyrics dance over the top of it so clear and proud that you cannot help but feel this is the closest the jam ever came to aural climax

[DirtyGRIMEEZCREW]

Just FYI I think this song is about a political refuge that the woman couldn't no longer be with and had to turn him into the state. Love this song so mesmerizing

[thomasmirando]

Same thing can't get that riff out of my head

[chrisclarke]

fuck me thats good on a whole new level

[oliverempleo]

one of mtv's hit song way back in 1994.

Escape is never the safest plan..
