[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1]
This indecision got me climbin' up the wall
Been cheatin' gravity and waitin' on the fall
How did this come over me? I thought I was above it all
Our hope's gone up in smoke, swallow your crown

[Pre-Chorus]
Choke! On our kiss
Thought I'd save my breath for you
Choke! On our kiss
Thought I'd save my breath for you

[Chorus]
Gimme some rope, I'm comin' loose
I'm hangin' on you
Gimme some rope, I'm comin' loose
I'm pullin' for you now
Give me some rope, I'm comin'
Outta my head, into the clear
When you go, I come loose

[Verse 2]
These premonitions got me cryin' up a storm
Leave your condition, this position does no harm

[Pre-Chorus]
Choke! On our kiss
Thought I'd save my breath for you
Choke! On our kiss
Thought I'd save my breath for you

[Chorus]
Gimme some rope, I'm comin' loose
I'm hangin' on you
Gimme some rope, I'm comin' loose
I'm pullin' for you now
Give me some rope, I'm comin'
Outta my head, into the clear
When you go, I come loose

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
Gimme some rope, I'm comin' loose
I'm hangin' on you
Gimme some rope, I'm comin' loose
I'm pullin' for you now
Gimme some hope, I'm comin' through
I'm counting on you
Gimme some rope, I'm comin'
Outta my head, into the clear
When you go, I come
Loose

Foo Fighters are an American rock band formed in 1995 by former Nirvana drummer Dave Grohl. Originally a solo project by him to overcome the grief of Kurt Cobain’s death, Grohl attracted label interest with his inaugural demo tape.

According to Dave Grohl, the band is named after the UFOs that were reported by Allied aircraft pilots in World War II.

I was reading a lot of books on UFOs. Not only is it a fascinating subject, but there’s a treasure trove of band names in those UFO books! So, since I had recorded the first record by myself, playing all the instruments, but I wanted people to think that it was a group, I figured that FOO FIGHTERS might lead people to believe that it was more than just one guy. Silly, huh?
