Today's Thought made me think about Dave Grohl

The Best in Someone

---

Before getting to the Dave Grohl (DG) tune embedded below, take a gander at the link to a page that has a lot of theories about the song lyrics for the song you're about to watch. It made me ponder a few things. For example, I wonder

• if DG really, truly, understands how deeply his words impact the people who listen to his music.
• if DG ever goes out on the Internet, to a site with song meaning theories and actually logged in and commented on what the song actually means to him and what he was trying to convey when he wrote it. 

To take those thoughts a couple steps further, if I were DG:

• and I knew that a site existed where people wrote about what I wrote, I would most definitely look at the theories put forth. 
• I would most definitely add comments to the theories, especially the theories I found inspirational or thought-provoking. If I were DG, I 'd engage my fans in that way. 

No, I'm not Dave Grohl.

Best of You

Foo Fighters

I've got another confession to make
I'm your fool
Everyone's got their chains to break
Holdin' you
Were you born to resist or be abused?
Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?
Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?
Are you gone and onto someone new?
I needed somewhere to hang my head
Without your noose
You gave me something that I didn't have
But had no use
I was too weak to give in
Too strong to lose
My heart is under arrest again
But I break loose
My head is giving me life or death
But I can't choose
I swear I'll never give in
I refuse
Has someone taken your faith?
Its real, the pain you feel
You trust, you must
Confess
Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?
Has someone taken your faith?
Its real, the pain you feel
The life, the love
You die to heal
The hope that starts
The broken hearts
You trust, you must
Confess
Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?
Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?
I've got another confession my friend
I'm no fool
I'm getting tired of starting again
Somewhere new
Were you born to resist or be abused?
I swear I'll never give in
I refuse
Has someone taken your faith?
Its real, the pain you feel
You trust, you must
Confess
Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?
