Foo Fighters, "Rescued" Lyrics

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?
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

Are you thinking what I’m thinking?
Is this happening now?
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
