Foo Fighters - On The Mend / What If I Do? (Live 2006)

beautiful live acoustic versions of the ethereal tracks "on the mend" & "what if i do?", from disc 2 of In Your Honor. i'm only just falling in love with these songs. it's this weird Foo phenomena which has been gripping me as of late. with the build-up of their imminent live concert (coming up next Saturday, IM SO FUCKING EXCITED), it's like i'll hear a random Foo track i never previously gave a chance, and instantly fall in love with it. these are only the latest two, there's more to come.
"on the mend"



One more day that i've survived
Another night alone
Pay no mind I'm 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 teathered 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?
Said hello
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?
Said hello
Here we go
Here we go
Here we go
Here we go

"what if i do?"

Back and forth that voice of yours keeps me up at night
Help me search to find the words that eat you up inside
I go side to side like the wildest tides in your hurricane
And I only hide what is on my mind because I can't explain
What if I do love
What if I don't?
I'd have to lose everything just to find you
What if I do love
What if I don't
I'd have to lose everything just to find you
It's my turn this solo burn so throw me in the fire
Trophies earned and lessons learned, my wicked little lies
We can pave new roads with the cold creed stones, wind them through the pines
Should I stay or should I go alone? I cannot decide
What if I do love
What if I don't?
I'd have to lose everything just to find you
What if I do love
What if I don't
I'd have to lose everything just to find you
Carolina, Caroline
Carolina, Caroline
What if I do love
What if I don't?
I'd have to lose everything just to find you
What if I do love
What if I don't
I'd have to lose everything just to find you
Carolina, Caroline
Carolina, Caroline
Carolina, Caroline
Carolina, Caroline
