  • Na na, na-na-na-na, na, na
    Na-na-na-na, na, na, na-na-na-na, na
    Na na, na-na-na-na, na, na
    Na-na-na-na, na, na, na-na-na-na, na

    I've was waiting, elevating, hanging on a line
    Hate to say it your new favorite's going out of style
    Threw away those broken heroes, they're just wood and wires
    Hallelujah, spread the news, but don't believe the hype

    Alright
    Are you afraid of the dark?
    I know a place we can start

    But if this is the last time
    Make up your mind
    I've waited a lifetime to live
    It's time to ignite
    I'm making a fire

    Na na, na-na-na-na, na, na
    Na-na-na-na, na, na, na-na-na-na, na

    I was baited when I said I'd never tell a lie
    Luck be damned, I took a stand and finally hit my stride

    Bye bye
    Are you afraid of the dark?
    I know a place we can start

    But if this is the last time
    Make up your mind
    I've waited a lifetime to live
    It's time to ignite
    I'm making a fire

    Na na, na-na-na-na, na, na
    Na-na-na-na, na, na, na-na-na-na, na

    Are you afraid of the dark?
    I know a place we can start

    Na na, na-na-na-na, na, na
    Na-na-na-na, na, na, na-na-na-na, na
    Na-na-na-na, na, na na-na-na-na, na, na
    Na-na-na-na, na, na, na-na-na-na, na

    This is the last time
    Make up your mind
    I've waited a lifetime to live
    Down to the wire

    This is the last time
    Make up your mind
    I've waited a lifetime to live
    It's time to ignite
    I'm making a fire

    Na na, na-na-na-na, na, na

  • Dennis C from ArizonaThis song was used in a commercial for Dodge RAM released in May 2021. Dave Grohl and the Foos appear in Ram’s minute-long commercial, “Rock Star,” which showcases the real-life “rock star” mentors and heroes that shape families and communities, from coaches and teachers to moms and dads (including Dave Grohl’s mother Virginia Hanlon Grohl, who appears in a portrait with her son at the end of the spot). Dave Grohl is seen driving a Ram 1500 truck alongside his voiceover about how real rock stars are made (“Believe in your dreams – the crazier, the more wild and absurd, the better”).
