Foo Fighters - The Essential Foo Fighters Lyrics
Making A Fire
Na na, na-na-na, na, na
Na-na-na, na, na, na-na-na, na
Na na, na-na-na, na, na
Na-na-na, na, na, na-na-na, na
I've been waitin', elevatin', hanging on a line
Hate to say it your new favorite's going out of style
Threw away those broken heroes, they're just wood and wires
Hallelujah, spread the news, but don't believe the hype
Alright
Are you afraid of the dark?
I know a place we can start
But if this is our last time
Make up your mind
I've waited a lifetime to live
It's time to ignite
I'm makin' a fire
Na na, na-na-na, na, na
Na-na-na, na, na, na-na-na, na
I was baited when I said I'd never tell a lie
Luck be damned I took a stand and finally hit my stride
Bye bye
Are you afraid of the dark?
I know a place we can start
But if this is our last time
Make up your mind
I've waited a lifetime to live
It's time to ignite
I'm makin' a fire
Na na, na-na-na, na, na
Na-na-na, na, na, na-na-na, na
Are you afraid of the dark?
I know a place we can start, yeah
Na na, na-na-na, na, na
Na-na-na, na, na, na-na-na, na
Na-na-na-na, na na, na-na-na, na, na
Na-na-na, na, na, na-na-na, na
So if this is our last time
Make up your mind
I've waited a lifetime to live
It's down to the wire
This is our last time
I've made up my mind
I've waited a lifetime to live
It's time to ignite
I'm makin' a fire
Na na, na-na-na, na, na
Na-na-na, na, na, na-na-na, na
Na-na-na-na, na na, na-na-na, na, na
Na-na-na, na, na, na-na-na, na

Times Like These
I, I'm a one way motorway
I'm the one that drives away
Follows you back home
I, I'm a street light shining
I'm a white light blinding bright
Burning off and on
Uh huh huh
It's times like these you learn to live again
It's times like these you give and give again
It's times like these you learn to love again
It's times like these time and time again
I, I'm a new day rising
I'm a brand new sky
To hang the stars upon tonight
But I, I'm a little divided
Do I stay or run away
And leave it all behind?
Uh huh huh
It's times like these you learn to live again
It's times like these you give and give again
It's times like these you learn to love again
It's times like these time and time again
Oh oh oh whoa oh, uh huh huh
Whoa oh, uh huh huh
Whoa oh, uh huh huh
Uh huh huh
Uh huh
Uh huh huh
It's times like these you learn to live again
It's times like these you give and give again
It's times like these you learn to love again
It's times like these time and time again
It's times like these you learn to live again
It's times like these you give and give again
It's times like these you learn to love again
It's times like these time and time again
It's times like these you learn to live again
It's times like these you give and give again
It's times like these you learn to love again
It's times like these time and time again

Rope
This indecision got me climbing up the wall
Been cheating gravity and waiting on the fall
How did this come over me? I thought I was above it all
Our hopes gone up in smoke, swallow your crown
Choke, on a kiss, I thought I'd save my breath for you
Choke, on a kiss, I thought I'd save my breath for you
Give me some rope I'm coming loose, I'm hanging on you
Give me some rope I'm coming loose, I'm pulling for you now
Give me some rope I'm coming, out of my head, into the clear when you, go,
I, go, noose
These premonitions got me crying up a storm
Leave your condition, this position does no harm
Choke, on a kiss, I thought I'd save my breath for you
Choke, on a kiss, I thought I'd save my breath for you
Give me some rope I'm coming loose, I'm hanging on you
Give me some rope I'm coming loose, I'm pulling for you now
Give me some rope I'm coming, out of my head, into the clear when you, go,
I, go, noose
Give me some rope I'm coming loose, I'm hanging on you
Give me some rope I'm coming loose, I'm pulling for you now
Give me some hope I'm coming through, I'm coming out, yeah
Give me some rope, I'm coming out of my head, into the clear when you go,
I go, go
Loose

Monkey Wrench
what have we done with innocence
it disappeared with time
it never made much sense
adolescent resident
wasting another night on planning my revenge
one in ten
don't wanna be your monkey wrench
one more indecent accident
I'd rather leave than suffer this
I'll never be your monkey wrench
all this time to make amends
what do you do when all your enemies are friends
now and then I'll try to bend
under pressure
wind up snapping in the end
one in ten
one last thing before I quit
I never wanted any more than I could fit into my head
I still remember every single word you said
and all the shit that somehow came along with it
still there's one thing that comforts me
since I was always caged and now I'm free
don't wanna be your monkey wrench

My Hero
Too alarmin' now to talk about
Take your pictures down and shake it out
Truth or consequence, say it aloud
Use that evidence, race it around
There goes my hero
Watch him as he goes
There goes my hero
He's ordinary
Don't the best of them bleed it out
While the rest of them peter out?
Truth or consequence, say it aloud
Use that evidence, race it around
There goes my hero
Watch him as he goes
There goes my hero
He's ordinary
Kudos, my hero
Leavin' all the best
You know my hero
The one that's on
There goes my hero
Watch him as he goes
There goes my hero
He's ordinary
There goes my hero
Watch him as he goes
There goes my hero
He's ordinary

Cold Day In The Sun
Took the high dive into your brain
And you made your lonely calls
You just might wear your welcome out
If you don't let it go
There's nothing that you couldn't say
Cuz you've said it all before
I think it's time you walked this lonely road
all on your own
It's your cold day in the sun
Looks like your bleeding heart has already won
I wish I could take it away
And save you from yourself
You get so lost inside your head Like no one
else Are you looking for someone to blame?
Did you blame me all along?
You'll take the heat
But you would never take the fall
It's your cold day in the sun
Looks like your bleeding heart has already won
You're so afraid that you are the only one
You are the only one
You know
Don't be afraid cuz you're not the only one
You're not the only one
I know

Big Me
When I talk about it
Carries on
Reasons only knew
When I talk about it
Aries or treasons all renew
Big me to talk about it
I could stand to prove
If we can get around it
I know that it's true
Well, I talked about it
Carried on
Reasons only knew
But it's you I fell into
When I talked about it
Carries on
Reasons only knew
When I talk about it
Aries or treasons all renew
Big me to talk about it
I could stand to prove
If we can get around it
I know that it's true
Well, I talked about it
Put it on
Never was it true
But it's you I fell into
Well, I talked about it
Put it on
Never was it true
But it's you I fell into
I fell into
I fell into

Long Road To Ruin
Here now don't make a sound
Say have you heard the news today?
One flag was taken down
To raise another in its place
A heavy cross you bear
A stubborn heart remains unchanged
No home, no life, no love
No stranger singing in your name
Maybe the season
The colours change in the valley skies
Dear God I've sealed my fate
Running through hell, heaven can wait
Long road to ruin there in your eyes
Under the cold streetlights
No tomorrow, no dead end in sight
Let's say we take this town
No king or queen of any state
Get up to shut it down
Open the streets and raise the gates
I know one wall to scale
I know a field without a name
Head on without a care
Before it's way too late
Maybe the season
The colours change in the valley skies
Oh, God I've sealed my fate
Running through hell, heaven can wait
Long road to ruin there in your eyes
Under the cold streetlights
No tomorrow, no dead ends
Long road to ruin there in your eyes
Under the cold streetlights
No tomorrow, no dead end in sight
For every piece to fall in place
Forever gone without a trace
Your horizon takes its shape
No turning back, don't turn that page
Come now, I'm leaving here tonight
Come now, let's leave it all behind
Is that the price you pay?
Running through hell, heaven can wait
Long road to ruin there in your eyes
Under the cold streetlights
No tomorrow, no dead ends
Long road to ruin there in your eyes
Under the cold streetlights
No tomorrow, no dead ends
Long road to ruin there in your eyes
Under the cold streetlights
No tomorrow, no dead end in sight

Shame Shame
If you want to
I'll make you feel something real just to bother you
Now I got you
Under my thumb, like a drug, I will smother you
I'll be the one
Be the moon, be the sun
Be the rain in your song
Go and put that record on
If you want to
I'll be the one
Be the tongue that will swallow you
Shame, shame
Shame, shame
Shame, shame
Shame, shame
Another splinter under the skin
Another season of loneliness
I found a reason and buried it
Beneath a mountain of emptiness
Oh, oh oh, oh, oh oh
Shame, shame
Shame, shame
Who? What? (Shame)
Where? When? (Shame)
Just move along, nothing wrong (shame)
'Til we meet again (shame)
I'll be the end (shame, shame)
I'll be the war at your door (shame)
Come and let me in (shame)
I'll be the one (shame)
Be the moon, be the sun (shame)
Be the rain in your song (shame)
Go and put that record on (shame)
If you want to (shame, shame)
I'll be the one (shame)
Be the tongue that will swallow you (shame)
Another splinter under the skin
Another season of loneliness
I found a reason and buried it
Beneath a mountain of emptiness
Oh, oh oh, oh, oh oh
Shame, shame
Shame, shame
Shame, shame
Shame, shame
Shame, shame
Shame, shame
Shame, shame
Shame, shame
Another splinter under the skin
Another season of loneliness
I found a reason and buried it

Best Of You
I've got another confession to make
I'm your fool
Everyone's got their chains to break
Holdin' you
Were you born to resist or be abused?
Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?
Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?
Are you gone and onto someone new?
I needed somewhere to hang my head
Without your noose
You gave me something that I didn't have
But had no use
I was too weak to give in
Too strong to lose
My heart is under arrest again
But I break loose
My head is giving me life or death
But I can't choose
I swear I'll never give in
I refuse
Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?
Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?
Has someone taken your faith?
Its real, the pain you feel
You trust, you must
Confess
Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?
Oh
Oh, oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh
Oh
Has someone taken your faith?
Its real, the pain you feel
The life, the love
You die to heal
The hope that starts
The broken hearts
You trust, you must
Confess
Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?
Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?
I've got another confession my friend
I'm no fool
I'm getting tired of starting again
Somewhere new
Were you born to resist or be abused?
I swear I'll never give in
I refuse
Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?
Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?
Has someone taken your faith?
Its real, the pain you feel
You trust, you must
Confess
Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?
Oh

All My Life
All my life, I've been searching for something
Something never comes, never leads to nothing
Nothing satisfies but I'm getting close
Closer to the prize at the end of the rope
All night long I dream of the day
When it comes around and it's taken away
Leaves me with the feeling that I feel the most
Feel it come to life when I see your ghost
Calm down, don't you resist
You've such a delicate wrist
And if I give it a twist
Something to hold when I lose my grip
Will I find something in there
To give me just what I need?
Another reason to bleed
One by one hidden up my sleeve
One by one hidden up my sleeve
Hey, don't let it go to waste, I love it but I hate the taste
Weight keepin' me down
Hey, don't let it go to waste, I love it but I hate the taste
Weight keepin' me down
Will I find a believer?
Another one who believes
Another one to deceive
Over and over, down on my knees
If I get any closer
And if you open up wide
And if you let me inside
On and on, I got nothing to hide
On and on, I got nothing to hide
Hey, don't let it go to waste, I love it but I hate the taste
Weight keepin' me down
Hey, don't let it go to waste, I love it but I hate the taste
Weight keepin' me down
All my life, I've been searching for something
Something never comes, never leads to nothing
Nothing satisfies but I'm getting close
Closer to the prize at the end of the rope
All night long, I dream of the day
When it comes around and it's taken away
Leaves me with the feeling that I feel the most
Feel it come to life when I see your ghost
Then I'm done, done, on to the next one
Done, done and I'm on to the next one
Done, done and I'm on to the next one
Done, done and I'm on to the next one
Done, done and I'm on to the next one
Done, done and I'm on to the next one
Done, done and I'm on to the next one
Done, I'm done and I'm on to the next
Done, done, on to the next one
Done, I'm done and on to the next one
Done, done, on to the next one
Done, I'm done and I'm on to the next
Hey, don't let it go to waste, I love it but I hate the taste
Weight keepin' me down
Hey, don't let it go to waste, I love it but I hate the taste
Weight keepin' me down
Done, done, on to the next one
Done, I'm done and I'm on to the next

The Pretender
Keep you in the dark
You know they all pretend
Keep you in the dark
And so it all began
Send in your skeletons
Sing as their bones go marching in, again
The need you buried deep
The secrets that you keep are ever ready
Are you ready?
I'm finished making sense
Done pleading ignorance
That whole defense
Spinning infinity, boy
The wheel is spinning me
It's never-ending, never-ending
Same old story
What if I say I'm not like the others?
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?
You're the pretender
What if I say I will never surrender?
What if I say I'm not like the others?
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?
You're the pretender
What if I say that I'll never surrender?
In time our soul untold
I'm just another soul for sale, oh well
The page is out of print
We are not permanent
We're temporary, temporary
Same old story
What if I say I'm not like the others?
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?
You're the pretender
What if I say that I'll never surrender?
What if I say I'm not like the others?
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?
You're the pretender
What if I say I will never surrender?
I'm the voice inside your head
You refuse to hear
Yeah, I'm the face that you have to face
Mirrored in your stare
I'm what's left, I'm what's right
I'm the enemy
I'm the hand that will take you down
Bring you to your knees
So who are you?
Yeah, who are you?
Yeah, who are you?
Yeah, who are you?
Keep you in the dark
You know they all pretend
What if I say I'm not like the others?
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?
You're the pretender
What if I say I will never surrender?
What if I say I'm not like the others?
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?
You're the pretender
What if I say that I'll never surrender?
What if I say I'm not like the others? (Keep you in the dark)
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays? (You know they all pretend)
You're the pretender (who dares)
What if I say I will never surrender?
What if I say I'm not like the others? (keep you in the dark)
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays? (You know they all pretend)
You're the pretender (who dares)
What if I say I will never surrender?
So who are you?
Yeah, who are you?
Yeah, who are you?

This Is a Call
Visiting is pretty
Visiting is good
Seems that all they ever wanted was a brother
This can be a secret
We can keep it good
Even all they ever wanted had a problem
This is a call to all my
Past resignations
This is a call to all
Fingernails are pretty
Fingernails are good
Seems that all they ever wanted was a marking
Them balloons are pretty
Big and say they should
Ever fall to ground
Call the magic marker
This is a call to all my
Past resignations
This is a call to all
This is a call to all my
Past resignations
It's been too long
Minicyn is pretty
Minicyn is good
Seems that all the cysts and mollusks tend to barter
Ritalin is easy
Ritalin is good
Even all the ones that watered down the daughter
This is a call to all my
Past resignations
This is a call to all
This is a call to all my
Past resignations
It's been too long
Fingernails are pretty
Fingernails are good
Seems that all they ever wanted was a marking
Them balloons are pretty
Big and say they should
Ever fall to ground
Call the magic marker
This is a call to all my
Past resignations
This is a call to all
This is a call to all my
Past resignations
It's been too long

Waiting On A War
I've been waitin' on a war since I was young
Since I was a little boy with a toy gun
Never really wanted to be number one
Just wanted to love everyone
Is there more to this than that?
Is there more to this than that?
Is there more to this than that?
Is there more to this
More to this, more to this than
Just waitin' on a war?
Just waitin' on a war?
Every day waitin' for the sky to fall
Big crash on a world that's so small
Just a boy with nowhere left to go
Fell in love with a voice on the radio
Is there more to this than that?
Is there more to this than that?
Is there more to this than that?
Is there more to this
More to this, more to this than
Just waitin' on a war?
Just waitin' on a war?
Just waitin' on a war for this and that
There's got to be more to this than that
Just waitin' on a war for this and that
There's got to be more to this than that
(Oh, oh)
I've been waitin' on a war since I was young
Since I was a little boy with a toy gun
Is there more to this
More to this, more to this than
Just waitin' on a war?
Just waitin' on a war?
Just waitin' on a war for this and that
There's got to be more to this than that
Just waitin' on a war for this and that
There's got to be more to this than that
Just waitin' on a war for this and that
There's got to be more to this than that
Just waitin' on a war for this and that
There's got to be more to this than that
'Cause I need more
Yeah, I need more
Just waitin' on a war
Just waitin' on a war
Yeah, I need more
(For this and that)
(There's got to be more to this than that)
Yeah, I need more (just waiting on a war)
(For this and that)
(There's got to be more to this than that)
(Just waiting on a war)

Walk
A million miles away
Your signal in the distance
To whom it may concern
I think I lost my way
Getting good at starting over
Every time that I return
Learning to walk again
I believe I've waited long enough
Where do I begin?
Learning to talk again
Can't you see I've waited long enough?
Where do I begin?
Do you remember the days?
We built these paper mountains
Then sat and watched them burn
I think I found my place
Can't you feel it growing stronger
Little conquerors
Learning to walk again
I believe I've waited long enough
Where do I begin?
Learning to talk again
I believe I've waited long enough
Where do I begin?
Now
For the very first time
Don't you pay no mind
Set me free, again
To keep alive, a moment at a time
That's still inside, a whisper to a riot
The sacrifice, the knowing to survive
That first decline, another state of mind
I'm on my knees, I'm praying for a sign
Forever, whenever, I never wanna die
I never wanna die
I never wanna die
I'm on my knees, I never wanna die
I'm dancing on my grave
I'm running through the fire
Forever, whenever
I never wanna die
I never wanna leave
I'll never say goodbye
Forever, whenever
Forever, whenever
Learning to walk again
I believe I've waited long enough
Where do I begin?
Learning to talk again
Can't you see I've waited long enough?
Where do I begin?
Learning to walk again
I believe I've waited long enough
Learning to talk again
Can't you see I've waited long enough?

Learn To Fly
Run and tell all of the angels
This could take all night
Think I need a devil to help me
Get things right
Hook me up a new revolution
'Cause this one is a lie
We sat around laughing
And watched the last one die
Now I'm looking to the sky to save me
Looking for a sign of life
Looking for something to help me burn out bright
I'm looking for a complication
Looking 'cause I'm tired of lying
Make my way back home
When I learn to fly high
Think I'm done nursing the patience
It can wait one night
Give it all away
If you give me one last try
We'll live happily ever trapped
If you just save my life
Run and tell the angels
That everything's alright
I'm looking to the sky to save me
Looking for a sign of life
Looking for something to help me burn out bright
I'm looking for a complication
Looking 'cause I'm tired of trying
Make my way back home
When I learn to fly high
Make my way back home
When I learn to
Fly along with me
I can't quite make it alone
Try to make this life my own
Fly along with me
I can't quite make it alone
Try to make this life my own
I'm looking to the sky to save me
Looking for a sign of life
Looking for something help me burn out bright
I'm looking for a complication
Looking 'cause I'm tired of trying
Make my way back home
When I learn to
Looking to the sky to save me
Looking for a sign of life
Looking for something help me burn out bright
I'm looking for a complication
Looking 'cause I'm tired of trying
Make my way back home
When I learn to fly high
Make my way back home
When I learn to fly
Make my way back home
When I learn to

The Sky Is A Neighborhood
Ah, ah
Ah, ah
Ah, ah
The sky is a neighborhood
So keep it down
Heart is a storybook
A star burned out
The sky is a neighborhood
Don't make a sound
Lights comin' up ahead
Don't look now
The sky is a neighborhood (ah, ah)
The sky is a neighborhood (ah, ah)
Don't look now
Oh, my dear, heaven is a big bang now
Gotta get to sleep somehow
Bangin' on the ceiling
Bangin' on the ceiling
Keep it down
Oh, my dear, heaven is a big bang now
Gotta get to sleep somehow
Bangin' on the ceiling
Bangin' on the ceiling
Keep it down
Mind is a battlefield
All hope is gone
Trouble to the right and left
Whose side you're on?
Thoughts like a minefield
I'm a tickin' bomb
Maybe you should watch your step
Don't get lost
The sky is a neighborhood (ah, ah)
The sky is a neighborhood (ah, ah)
Don't get lost
Oh, my dear, heaven is a big bang now
Gotta get to sleep somehow
Bangin' on the ceiling
Bangin' on the ceiling
Keep it down
Oh, my dear, heaven is a big bang now
Gotta get to sleep somehow
Bangin' on the ceiling
Bangin' on the ceiling
Keep it down
The sky is a neighborhood
Heart is a storybook
A star burned out
Somethin' comin' up ahead
Don't look now
Oh, my dear, heaven is a big bang now
Gotta get to sleep somehow
Bangin' on the ceiling
Bangin' on the ceiling
Keep it down
Oh, my dear, heaven is a big bang now
Gotta get to sleep somehow

Bangin' on the ceiling
Keep it down
The sky is a neighborhood

Breakout
You make me dizzy running circles in my head
One of these days I'll chase you down
Well look who's going crazy now
We're face to face my friend,
Better get out
You know you make me break out
I don't want to look like that
You can see this on my face
It's all for you
The more and more I take
I break right through
Therapy still scares me
Putting me on my back again
I may be crazy, little frayed around the ends
One of these days I'll phase you out
Burn it in the blast off watching me crawl away
Try to get out

These Days
One of these days, the ground will drop out from beneath your feet
One of these days, your heart will stop and play it's final beat
One of these days, the clocks will stop and time won't mean a thing
One of these days, their bombs will drop and silence everything
But it's alright, yeah it's alright, said it's alright
Easy for you to say
Your heart has never been broken
Your pride has never been stolen
Not yet, not yet, one of these days
I bet your heart 'll be broken
I bet your pride 'll be stolen
I'll bet, I'll bet, I'll bet, I'll bet
One of these days, one of these days
One of these days, your eyes will close and pain will disappear
One of these days, you will forget to hope and learn to fear
But it's alright, yeah it's alright, said it's alright
Easy for you to say
Your heart has never been broken
Your pride has never been stolen
Not yet, not yet, one of these days
I bet your heart 'll be broken
I bet your pride 'll be stolen
I'll bet, I'll bet, I'll bet, I'll bet
One of these days, one of these days
But it's alright, yeah it's alright, said it's alright
Yeah it's alright
Don't say it's alright, don't say it's alright
Don't say it's alright
One of these days your heart will stop and play it's final beat
But it's alright, easy for you to say
Your heart has never been broken
Your pride has never been stolen
Not yet, not yet, one of these days
I bet your heart will be broken
I bet your pride will be stolen
I'll bet, I'll bet, I'll bet, I'll bet
One of these days
One of these days
One of these days

Everlong
Hello
I've waited here for you
Everlong
Tonight, I throw myself into
And out of the red
Out of her head, she sang
Come down and waste away with me
Down with me
Slow, how you wanted it to be
I'm over my head
Out of her head, she sang
And I wonder
When I sing along with you
If everything could ever be this real forever
If anything could ever be this good again
The only thing I'll ever ask of you
You've got to promise not to stop when I say when
She sang
Breathe out
So I can breathe you in
Hold you in
And now
I know you've always been
Out of your head
Out of my head, I sang
And I wonder
When I sing along with you
If everything could ever feel this real forever
If anything could ever be this good again
The only thing I'll ever ask of you
You've got to promise not to stop when I say when
She sang
And I wonder
If everything could ever feel this real forever
If anything could ever be this good again
The only thing I'll ever ask of you
You've got to promise not to stop when I say when
