Faltando dois dias para o lançamento de "Dark Matter", o Pearl Jam liberou mais uma música, a terceira, de seu novo trabalho que, pelo visto, será um disco bem variado.
"Wreckage" é uma canção mais lenta de pegada radiofônica e grande sensibilidade pop. Ou seja, bem diferente da punk "Running" e da faixa-título, mais ritmada, as outras canções já lançadas do álbum.
O apelo pop da faixa foi destacada em pelo menos duas resenhas já publicadas sobre o trabalho. A revista Uncut disse se tratar de uma das coisas mais deliberadamente bonitas que eles já gravaram, enquanto a Mojo, que pela primeira vez colocou a banda na capa de uma edição, disse se tratar de uma canção de "acerto de contas" ao estilo de Tom Petty.

Wreckage
(Eddie Vedder, Jeff Ament, Mike McCready, Stone Gossard, Matt Cameron, Andrew Watt)
Visited by thought, another darkened day
How you are like the sun hiding somewhere beyond the rain
I'm needing for the light, stormy is the grey
Rivers overflowing, drowning all our yesterdays
Visited by thoughts on another darkened week
How even every winner hits a losing streak
The mistakes we all make and perfectly repeat
Chains are made by DNA refusing, refusing to release
Combing through the wreckage, pouring through the sane
Surrounded by the remnants, what we could and couldn't have
Raking through the ashes falling through my hands
Charcoal on the faces in the burned up photographs
Oh, visited by thoughts, and this I got to say
If you're feeling the leaving, I can't make you stay
I've only ever wanted for it not to be this way
But you're now like the water,
and the water will find its way
Combing through the wreckage
Holding out, holding on
Combing through the wreckage
Combing through the wreckage
Oh, visited by thoughts and not just in the night
That I no longer give a fuck who is wrong and who's right
This game of winner takes all, and all means nothing left
Spoils go the victor, and the other left for dead
Uh-huh, combing through the wreckage
Holding out, holding on
Combing through the wreckage
Combing through the wreckage
Holding out, holding on
Holding out, holding
Holding you, holding on
(Combing through the wreckage)
Combing through the wreckage
(Falling through the wreckage)
Falling through the wreckage
(Combing through the wreckage)
Holding on
(Falling through the wreckage)
Holding on
(Combing through the wreckage)
Oh, holding on
(Falling through the wreckage)
Falling through the wreckage
(Combing through the wreckage)
Combing through the wreckage
(Falling through the wreckage)
Falling through the wreckage
(Combing through the wreckage)
Combing through the wreckage
(Falling through the wreckage)
