Foo Fighters - Normal Lyrics






The waves that silences break come again, one by one
I lay awake and I count till I drown
Turn up the room it's getting too loud
I know I don't have to say it
Pick up and move and go find some new ground
Somewhere I know I can make it

But I won't give up when I want it enough
No I won't give up
Anything, anyway, anyone, anyday
Cause I figured it out
Here and the now takes me day by day

Will you come out tonight
Will you back down, will you put up a fight
Turn me around and make everything right
Make me normal from now on

Erased everyone I've replaced
In the end they're all gone
The faces all fade as the time passes by
What could I do I was waiting for you
Grown sick and tired of faking
Give me those eyes when I give you the truth
Finally here for the taking

But I won't give up
When I want it enough
No I won't give up
Anything, anyway, anyone, anyday
Cause I figured it out
Here and the now takes me day by day

Will you come out tonight
Will you back down, will you put up a fight
Turn me around and make everything right
Make me normal from now on

Hey will you come out tonight
Will you back down, will you put up a fight
Turn me around and make everything right
Make me normal from now on

I've figured it out here and the now
Takes me day by day

  9. S.... P....

    2017 and still surprised this song didn't make it to the album

  10. 1.... ....

    One of the best things about the Foo Fighters is that their B-sides, the songs that dont even make it onto the album are just as good

    1.... ....

    I'm still holding onto hope that one day the band will sit down and put together a compilation of rare tracks like this one.

  11. C.... Y....

    This song is so good it should have been released as a single.

  12. S.... C....

    I never get tired of this song. I've had this and Requiem on repeat. 👌🏻

  13. R.... ....

    Sounds like the bridge between One by One and In Your Honor

    R.... ....

    Rush1017 wow great analogy. It really does!

  14. S.... P....

    lovvve ittt

  15. S.... K....

    I saw them back in 2008 and every second was a wave of emotional power.

    S.... K....

    Tashie McKay I cried!!!

  16. O.... ....

    Foo Fighters are my favorite band because i never get tired of their music, every time i'm sick of one album i go listen to another one. Each have their own feel, witch makes every song unique.

    O.... ....

    OnyxBlackSmith agreed they even have a song called tired of you which I think is brilliant

  17. P.... L....

    I feel like the Foo's demos and singles are often much better than their album tracks

  18. A.... T....

    My opinion, this is better than Times Like These and All My Life

    A.... T....

    +Andrew Thomas your opinion. But I think nothing beats All my life when they Play it live. The concert can be bad as fuck but when it gets to the "Dumdum dumdumdum" of All my life everybody is freakin out.

    The song is awesome though and I still don't understand why it isn't on the record.

    A.... T....

    Live, I don't think that's quite the case :P But it is better than half of One By One and I tend to enjoy that album more than most fans do

  19. j.... s....

    can you make a Lyric Video?

  20. G.... P....

    Foo Fighters think this song is too Normal.
    For me, is fucking amazing!

  21. P.... a....

    This a great song!

  22. T.... G....

    Why this isn't in One by One?! It's incredible!

    T.... G....

    +Tamara Grohl better than most of the songs on one by one tbh

    T.... G....

    maybe it would give a "poppier" sound to the album.. i don't know, is the only (not so much) logical explanation i can find in my brain HAHA

    T.... G....

    Probably wasn’t heavy enough for the album. Something like this would fit perfectly elsewhere, especially ESPaG or There’s Nothing Left To Lose. But the raw dirtiness of an album like One by One? Probably not so much.

  23. A.... T....

    One by One is a good album, but this song and Make a Bet would have made the album perfect

    A.... T....

    Andrew Thomas one by one IMO is pretty average, their worst album. But this would have made it decent.

  24. C.... T....

    I don't understand how songs like this don't make the album

    C.... T....

    I was just thinking the same. Some bands waste so many songs as B-sides which nobody ever hardly hears.

    C.... T....

    Indeed too many Foo tracks are lost by the wayside

    C.... T....

    Have had this on repeat for a few days. Recently found it. So uplifting. And it starts with the line "the waves that silences break come again, one by one." Would love to know why they kept it off "One by One." I've searched for a live performance and have yet to find one. Great, great song.

    C.... T....

    Cindy Paul it’s not even on iTunes for purchase. This song with the lyrics alone has become my all time favorite foo fighters song. It’s truly beautiful and a uplifting song. LOVE THE FOO FIGHTERS

    C.... T....

    All Foo Fighters songs are great

  25. D.... W....

    I just love the way Dave sings....Cant get enough of the Foo ....lol

  26. K.... W....

    Gosh, can they ever do anything wrong? I absolutely love this song. Like another said, please put out a b-side album for us  hard core fans!!!

  27. J.... V....

    It's all awesome. Every fucking one

  28. b.... ....

    the vocal tune and chorus is class but the bland riffs let this song down.

  29. E.... G....

    Foo Fighters, Will the band be making any vinyl presses of your current music? This would sound so rich coming from an album?

    E.... G....

    I always have to ask. I love the music.

  30. C.... D....

    "Significative" is not a word. I believe you were looking for "significant." What you said is a portmanteau of "significant" and "indicative."

    Or maybe I'm missing the irony of this comment?

  31. K.... J....

    Sounds better than the rest of 'One by One'.

  32. D.... d....

    Your, Sir.. Deserve a little bit more of likes!

  33. s.... ....

    Reminds me of what I wish I was.

  34. K.... P....

    even though i loved one by one, this is better than most of the songs on the album. This and One should've been on the album for sure

  35. J.... O....

    Well, one person clearly needs to go to a Mental hospital

  36. t.... ....

    Wow what a great song, touching

  37. j.... m....

    seriously...what clueless idiot decided that this wasnt album material ....without doubt the best b side they have ever recorded

  38. L.... ....

    This and the million dollar recording of come back would have made the album much better.

  39. t.... ....

    I agree man rock

  40. A.... K....

    Also known as b-sides. Not criticizing, just saying.

  41. N.... ....

    If The Foo's would make an album of all the songs that didn't make it to their original album and .... called them the remains.
    It would look something like this:
    /playlist?list=PLAIJV22YiSBqewxpCNmwBQGlT4V6Ts1fP&feature=mh_lolz

  42. M.... d....

    This song appears as part of the soundtrack of a movie? Because every time I hear it I think so, although I could not tell what ...

  43. M.... ....

    exactly plus I like bands puttin b sides on singles cos it creates a small community on here for people to enjoy the stuff the majority will never hear :)

  44. S.... ....

    I don't think there's a Foo song I don't like they are amazing, Dave Grohl fookin rocks!!!!

  45. S.... O....

    The Foo's should make an album of all the songs that didn't make it to their original album....
    call them the remains, but I think they are just as good as the rest of their songs.

  46. I.... ....

    Que buena canción de los Foo!!

  47. C.... H....

    this is better than half the album

  48. f.... c....

    he estado buscando esta cancion toda mi vida! La escuche en la radio, me enamoré y nunca supe el nombre D: por fin te encontré mierda<3

  49. j.... ....

    It's a b-side... the single is the song on the cover of the CD, the other songs are b-sides.

  50. L.... ....

    It appeared on 20/01/2003 with Times Like These and Learn to Fly (live). So, it was it's single release.

  51. j.... ....

    I'm pretty sure this was not a single

  52. r.... ....

    You can get the feeling from the first few seconds it will be another great song.

  53. G.... ....

    It's really a shame. It's so good and the Foo Fighters played very strong on this one. And lyrics are very significative.
