E is for Everlong

Hello
I've waited here for you
Everlong

Tonight
I throw myself into
And out of the red, out of her head she sang

Come down
And waste away with me
Down with me

Slow how
You wanted it to be
I'm over my head, out of her head she sang


And I wonder
When I sing along with you
If everything could ever feel this real forever
If anything could ever be this good again

The only thing I'll ever ask of you
You've got to promise not to stop when I say when
She sang


Breathe out
So I could breathe you in
Hold you in

And now
I know you've always been
Out of your head, out of my head I sang


And I wonder
When I sing along with you
If everything could ever feel this real forever
If anything could ever be this good again

The only thing I'll ever ask of you
You've got to promise not to stop when I say when
She sang


And I wonder
If everything could ever feel this real forever
If anything could ever be this good again

The only thing I'll ever ask of you
You've got to promise not to stop when I say when


So this is Everlong by the Foo Fighters. I honestly love this song. Except for the fact it is in drop D.

This is from the Color and the Shape album, which is basically dedicated to explaining an entire relationship with it's ups and downs. I find it to be not only touching, but strangely romantic and haunting.

The guitars, bass, and drums are amazing in this song. It is almost constant playing for the guitar, a decent, but slightly hidden bassline, and a killer drum beat. It is not as metal as the previous songs (except maybe Aqualung), but it is still an amazing song.
