Next Year
Foo Fighters · There Is Nothing Left To Lose
I'm in the sky tonight,
There I can keep by your side
Watching the wide world riot and hiding out
I'll be coming home next year
Into the sun we climb
Climbing our wings will burn white
Everyone strapped in tight
We'll ride it out
I'll be coming home next year
Come on get on get on
Take it till life runs out
No one can find us now,
Living with our heads underground
Into the night we shine
Lighting the way we glide by
Catch me if I get too high
When I come down
I'll be coming home next year
I'm in the sky tonight
There I can keep by your side
Watching the whole world wind around and round
I'll be coming home next year
Come on get on get on
Take it till life runs out
No one can find us now,
Living with our heads underground
I'll be coming home next year
Everything's alright up here
If I come down
I'll be coming home next year
Say good-bye
There I can keep by your side
Watching the wide world riot and hiding out
I'll be coming home next year
Into the sun we climb
Climbing our wings will burn white
Everyone strapped in tight
We'll ride it out
I'll be coming home next year
Come on get on get on
Take it till life runs out
No one can find us now,
Living with our heads underground
Into the night we shine
Lighting the way we glide by
Catch me if I get too high
When I come down
I'll be coming home next year
I'm in the sky tonight
There I can keep by your side
Watching the whole world wind around and round
I'll be coming home next year
Come on get on get on
Take it till life runs out
No one can find us now,
Living with our heads underground
I'll be coming home next year
Everything's alright up here
If I come down
I'll be coming home next year
Say good-bye
Next Year - Foo Fighters

Written by Dave Grohl and Nate Mendel, the song features the band's signature blend of driving rhythms and melodic vocals, marking a shift toward a more anthemic sound that would characterize their subsequent work. The track serves as a powerful testament to the band's ability to craft emotionally resonant rock music that resonates with audiences globally, solidifying their status as one of the most influential rock acts of the early 21st century.
