On The Mend

Foo Fighters · In Your Honor [2005]

One more day that I've survived

Another night alone

Pay no mind im doing fine

I'm breathing on my own

I'm here

And I'm on the mend

I'm here

And I'm on the mend my friend

Wake me when the hour arrives

Wake me with my name

See you somewhere down the line

We're tethered once again

I'm here

And I'm on the mend

I'm here

And I'm on the mend my friend

I'm here

And I'm on the mend

I'm here

And I'm on the mend my friend

Was it you?

Sat alone

Here we go

Close your eyes and stay a while

To take me where you go

Single file we walk the mile

Who's wandering back home

I'm here

And I'm on the mend

I'm here

And I'm on the mend my friend

I'm here

And I'm on the mend

I'm here

And I'm on the mend my friend

Was it you?

Sat alone

Here we go

Here we go

Here we go

Here we go
