goddamn this dusty room
this hazy afternoon
i’m breathing in the silence like never before
this feeling that i get
this one last cigarette
as i lay awake and wait for you to come through that door
oh maybe, maybe, maybe i can share it with you
i behave i behave i behave so i can share it with you
you are not alone dear loneliness
you forgot but i remember this
so stranger, stranger, stranger things have happened i know
i’m not alone dear loneliness
i forgot that i remember this
so stranger, stranger, stranger things have happened i know, oh ohh, oh ohhh
you’ll dream about somewhere, a smoke will fill the air
i can change, i can change, i can change
but who you want me to be?
i’m the same, i’m the same, i’m the same, what do you want me to be?
you are not alone dear loneliness
you forgot but i remember this
so stranger, stranger, stranger things have happened i know oh ohh, oh ohh
i’m not alone dear loneliness
i forgot that i remember this
you’re not alone dear loneliness
you forgot but i remember this
oh stranger, stranger, stranger things have happened i know
i’m not alone dear loneliness
i forgot that i remember this
oh stranger, stranger, stranger things have happened i know oh ohh, oh ohh, oh ohhh
Foo Fighters - Stranger Things Have Happened. From ‘Echoes, Silence, Patience & Grace’ Album.
The other day I decided to get all of the Foo Fighters albums for my iPod, I never really listened to any of their CDs past the first 2 albums (which were awesome). The other day I saw ‘The Pretender’ on Rage and instantly loved it, which is strange because the last couple of Foo Fighters songs I heard left me a little empty (Although perfectly great rock songs).
So yeah anyway, this track, it’s awesome, it’s acoustic, has feeling/atmosphere, it has good lyrics, and I hate to say it, feels a little ‘Nirvana’ inspired.
Reading through the wiki page above, it’s cool that Gil Norton is doing this album (The Colour and the Shape was a great album) and Pat Smear plays guitar on one song, Hooray!
FYI - Taylor Hawkins is awesome on drums in this new album. When is he ever not awesome?
FYI 2 - I’m not a fan of this entire album, just a few tracks, guess I need to give it time.
