It came in a flash
It came out of nowhere
It happened so fast
And then it was over
Are you thinking what I'm thinking?
Is this happening now? Oh
Are you feeling what I'm feeling?
This is happening now
We're all free to some degree
To dance under the lights
I'm just waiting to be rescued
Bring me back to life
Kings and queens and in-betweens
We all deserve the right
I'm just waiting to be rescued
I'm just waiting to be rescued
We're all just waiting to be rescued tonight
I fell in a trap
My heart's getting colder
It's coming on fast
It's over my shoulder, oh
Are you thinking what I'm thinking?
Is this happening now? Oh
Are you feeling what I'm feeling?
This is happening now
We're all free to some degree
To dance under the lights
I'm just waiting to be rescued
Bring me back to life
Kings and queens and in-betweens
We all deserve the right
I'm just waiting to be rescued
I'm just waiting to be rescued
We're all just waiting to be rescued tonight
To be rescued tonight
Rescue me tonight
Rescue me tonight
We're all free to some degree
To dance under the lights
I'm just waiting to be rescued
Bring me back to life
Kings and queens and in-betweens
We all deserve the right
I'm just waiting to be rescued
I'm just waiting to be rescued
We're all just waiting to be rescued tonight
To be rescued tonight
Rescue me tonight
Rescue me tonight

Under You
I woke up and walked a million miles today
I've been looking up and down for you
All this time it still feels just like yesterday
That I walked a million miles with you
Over it
Think I'm gettin' over it
There's no gettin' over it
There are times that I need someone
There are times I feel like no one
Sometimes I just don't know what to do
There are days I can't remember
There are days that last forever
Someday I'll come out from under you
Out from under you
Someone said I'll never see your face again
Part of me just can't believe it's true
Pictures of us sharing songs and cigarettes
This is how I'll always picture you
Over it
Think I'm gettin' over it
There's no gettin' over it
There are times that I need someone
There are times I feel like no one
Sometimes I just don't know what to do
There are days I can't remember
There are days that last forever
Someday I'll come out from under you
Out from under you
Out from under you
There are times I think it's over
There are times I can't recover
Sometimes I just don't know what to do
There are days I can't remember
There are days that last forever
Someday I'll come out from under you
Out from under you
Out from under you
Out from under you
Out from under you
Out from under you
I've been looking up and down for you
All this time it still feels just like yesterday
That I walked a million miles with you
Over it
Think I'm gettin' over it
There's no gettin' over it
There are times that I need someone
There are times I feel like no one
Sometimes I just don't know what to do
There are days I can't remember
There are days that last forever
Someday I'll come out from under you
Out from under you
Someone said I'll never see your face again
Part of me just can't believe it's true
Pictures of us sharing songs and cigarettes
This is how I'll always picture you
Over it
Think I'm gettin' over it
There's no gettin' over it
There are times that I need someone
There are times I feel like no one
Sometimes I just don't know what to do
There are days I can't remember
There are days that last forever
Someday I'll come out from under you
Out from under you
Out from under you
There are times I think it's over
There are times I can't recover
Sometimes I just don't know what to do
There are days I can't remember
There are days that last forever
Someday I'll come out from under you
Out from under you
Out from under you
Out from under you
Out from under you
Out from under you

Hearing Voices
I think I spoke too soon
It's time to clear the air
It's quiet in my room
The silence is unfair
I've been hearing voices
None of them are you
I've been hearing voices
None of them are you
Late at night, I tell myself
Nothing this good could last forever
No one cries like you
No one cries like you
I've been hearing voices
I've been hearing voices now
I've been hearing voices
None of them are you
None of them are you
None of them are you
None of them are you
I've seen you in the moon
I wish that you were here
You promised me your word
A whisper in my ear
Every night, I tell myself
Nothing like you could last forever
No one cries like you
No one cries like you
No one lies like you
No one lies like you
I've been hearing voices
I've been hearing voices now
I've been hearing voices
None of them are you
None of them are you
None of them are you
None of them are you
Speak to me, my love
Speak to me, my love
I've been hearing voices
None of them are you
I've been hearing voices
None of them are you
Speak to me, my love
Speak to me, my love
It's time to clear the air
It's quiet in my room
The silence is unfair
I've been hearing voices
None of them are you
I've been hearing voices
None of them are you
Late at night, I tell myself
Nothing this good could last forever
No one cries like you
No one cries like you
I've been hearing voices
I've been hearing voices now
I've been hearing voices
None of them are you
None of them are you
None of them are you
None of them are you
I've seen you in the moon
I wish that you were here
You promised me your word
A whisper in my ear
Every night, I tell myself
Nothing like you could last forever
No one cries like you
No one cries like you
No one lies like you
No one lies like you
I've been hearing voices
I've been hearing voices now
I've been hearing voices
None of them are you
None of them are you
None of them are you
None of them are you
Speak to me, my love
Speak to me, my love
I've been hearing voices
None of them are you
I've been hearing voices
None of them are you
Speak to me, my love
Speak to me, my love

But Here We Are
Save shiny little charms
Take 'em off, take 'em off
Faith, wish upon a star
Here we are, here we are
Hey, lay your burden down
Turn around, turn around
Fate, written in the stars
Arm in arm, arm in arm we are forever
Caught in illusion
Not an illusion
Caught in illusion
Not an illusion
Waiting, fading
Innocence
I gave you my heart, but here we are
Saved you my heart, but here we are
Oh-oh, oh-oh
But here we are
Wait, pictures, patience
Are you ready now?
Pain, severance, reverence
Arm in arm we are forever
Caught in illusion
Not an illusion
Caught in illusion
Not an illusion
Waiting, fading
Innocence
I gave you my heart, but here we are
Saved you my heart, but here we are
Oh-oh, oh-oh
But here we are
I gave you my heart, but here we are
Saved you my heart, but here we are
Oh-oh, oh-oh
But here we are
Take 'em off, take 'em off
Faith, wish upon a star
Here we are, here we are
Hey, lay your burden down
Turn around, turn around
Fate, written in the stars
Arm in arm, arm in arm we are forever
Caught in illusion
Not an illusion
Caught in illusion
Not an illusion
Waiting, fading
Innocence
I gave you my heart, but here we are
Saved you my heart, but here we are
Oh-oh, oh-oh
But here we are
Wait, pictures, patience
Are you ready now?
Pain, severance, reverence
Arm in arm we are forever
Caught in illusion

The Glass
I had a vision of you, and just like that
I was left to live without it, left to live without it
I found a version of love, and just like that
I was left to live without it, left to live without it
Waiting for this storm to pass
Waiting on this side of the glass
But I see my reflection in you
See your reflection in me
How could it be?
How could it be?
There is something between us
Between me and you
There is something between us
I see right through
I see right through
I had a version of home, and just like that
I was left to live without it, left to live without it
I had a person I loved, and just like that
I was left to live without it, left to live without it
Waiting for this storm to pass
Waiting on this side of the glass
But I see my reflection in you
See your reflection in me
How can it be?
How can it be?
There is something between us
Between me and you
There is something between us
I see right through
I see right through
There is something between us
Between me and you
There is something between us
I see right through

Nothing At All
I've been meaning to tell you
I've been out of my head
Left my heart on your doorstep
Left you out of my bed
Maybe I'm delusional
Is that so unusual?
Didn't mean to offend you
Was it something I said
Put me into your locket
Pull me off of a ledge
Maybe I'm insatiable
I'm feeling so sensational
I'll get by or maybe I won't
I can lie and say that I don't
Waste my time, lately I know
It's everything or nothing at all
Everything or nothing at all
Everything or nothing at all
Now that all the feeling is gone
Everything or nothing at all
Need a new superstition
One I'll never regret
Put your book in my pocket
Put your chain on my neck
Wouldn't it be dangerous
If nothing was restraining us
I'll get by or maybe I won't
I can lie and say that I don't
Waste my time, lately I know
It's everything or nothing at all
Everything or nothing at all
Everything or nothing at all
Now that all the feeling is gone
Everything or nothing at all
Never mind, love and hate
Peace of mind, it's a bit too late
(Nothing at all)
(Nothing at all)
(Nothing at all)
(Nothing at all)
(Nothing at all)
I'll get by with nothing at all
Fill my mind with nothing at all
Waste my time with nothing at all
It's everything or nothing at all
Never mind, love and hate
(Nothing at all)
Peace of mind, it's a bit too late
(Nothing at all)
Never mind, love and hate

Show Me How
Where have you gone?
Walk in circles back to square one
Made it through yesterday
Spillin' wine, thinkin' of the time
Wrote you a melody
Rollin' your eyes, held your hand a while
Need not say anything to me
Hear you loud and clear
Loud and clear
I'll take care of everything from now on
Where are you now?
Who will show me how?
Where are you now?
Who will show me how?
Wait for the sun
Say hello, maybe it will come
You watched the hummingbirds
Naming every one
Do you have a minute for me?
If you don't mind, I'll be stopping by
Count all the little black clouds
Don't you worry, please don't worry
I'll take care of everything from now on
Where are you now?
Who will show me how?
Where are you now?
Who will show me, who will show me how?
I'll take care of everything
I'll take care of everything
I'll take care of everything from now on
Where are you now?
Who will show me how?
Where are you now?
Who will show me, who will show me how?
Where are you now?
Who will show me how?
Where are you now?
Who will show me, who will show me how?
I'll take care of everything
I'll take care of everything
I'll take care of everything

Wrote you a melody
Rollin' your eyes, held your hand a while

Beyond Me
If it all ended today
Would you be fine?
Would you be fine?
If it all ended this way
Would you still be mine?

Are you well?
I can't tell
Do tell

Everything we love must grow old
Or so I'm told
Or so I'm told
You must release what you hold dear
Or so I fear
Or so I fear
But it's beyond me
Forever young and free
But it's beyond me
Forever young and free
If it all just went away
Would you be kind?
Would you be so kind?
Are you well?
I can't tell

The Teacher
Who's at the door now?
Who's at the door now?
Sun goes down, windows wide
One step closer to the other side
I can feel what others do
Can't stop this if I wanted to
Hey kid, what's the plan for tomorrow?
Where will I wake up? Where will I wake up?
Hey kid, what's the plan for tomorrow?
Where will I wake up? Where will I wake up?
Hurry now, boy, time won't wait
The here and the now will separate
There's some things you cannot choose
Soul and spirit moving through
Hey kid, what's the plan for tomorrow?
Where will I wake up? Where will I wake up?

Two cold stones on a riverbed
Ripped and torn, cannot mend
Old white candles on a dusty porch
One flame down, another born

Where will I wake up? Where will I wake up?
Hey kid, what's the plan for tomorrow?
Where will I wake up? Where will I wake up?
Who's at the door now?

You showed me how to breathe, never showed me how to say goodbye
You showed me how to be, never showed me how to say goodbye
Every page turns, it's a lesson learned in time
You showed me how to breathe, never showed me how to say goodbye
Try and make good with the air that's left
Counting every minute, living breath by breath
By breath, by breath, by breath
By breath, by
Try and make good with the air that's left
Counting every minute, living breath by breath
By breath, by breath, by breath

Rest
Waking up, bottom of an empty cup
Laying in your favorite clothes chosen just for you
Make you laugh, maybe I could make you laugh
Books of faded photographs, moments saved for you
Angel dust, tiny little paper cuts
Close my eyes and feel your touch, holding on to you
Rest, you can rest now
Rest, you will be safe now
Rest, you can rest now
Rest, you will be safe now
Love and trust, life is just a game of luck
All this time escaping us, until our time is through
Rest, you can rest now
Rest, you will be safe now
Rest, you can rest now
Rest, you will be safe now
Rest, you can rest now
Rest, you will be safe now
Rest, you can rest now
Rest, you will be safe now
You will be safe now
Waking up, had another dream of us
In the warm Virginia sun, there I will meet you
Laying in your favorite clothes chosen just for you
Make you laugh, maybe I could make you laugh
Books of faded photographs, moments saved for you
Angel dust, tiny little paper cuts
Close my eyes and feel your touch, holding on to you
Rest, you can rest now
Rest, you will be safe now
Rest, you can rest now
Rest, you will be safe now
Love and trust, life is just a game of luck
All this time escaping us, until our time is through
Rest, you can rest now
Rest, you will be safe now
Rest, you can rest now
Rest, you will be safe now
Rest, you can rest now
Rest, you will be safe now
Rest, you can rest now
Rest, you will be safe now
You will be safe now
Waking up, had another dream of us
In the warm Virginia sun, there I will meet you

But Here We Are is the eleventh studio album by American rock band Foo Fighters, released on June 2, 2023. Produced by Greg Kurstin and the band itself, it is their first studio album since the death of their longtime drummer Taylor Hawkins on March 25, 2022. Frontman Dave Grohl performed and recorded the entirety of the album's drum tracks in Hawkins' absence.
Four singles, "Rescued", "Under You", "Show Me How" and "The Teacher" were released ahead of the album, while drummer Josh Freese was announced as the band's new drummer for the supporting tour. It is widely regarded to be one of the best albums of the band's discography.
But Here We Are is dedicated to both Hawkins and Virginia; the latter of whom is Dave Grohl's mother who died in July 2022.
