Under You Lyrics

I woke up and walked a million miles today
I've been looking up and down for you
All this time it still feels just like yesterday
That I walked a million miles with you
Over it
Think I'm gettin' over it
There's no gettin' over it
There are times that I need someone
There are times I feel like no one
Sometimes I just don't know what to do
There are days I can't remember
There are days that last forever
Someday I'll come out from under you
Out from under you
Someone said I'll never see your face again
Part of me just can't believe it's true
Pictures of us sharing songs and cigarettes
This is how I'll always picture you
Over it
Think I'm gettin' over it
There's no gettin' over it
There are times that I need someone
There are times I feel like no one
Sometimes I just don't know what to do
There are days I can't remember
There are days that last forever
Someday I'll come out from under you
Out from under you
Out from under you
There are times I think it's over
There are times I can't recover
Sometimes I just don't know what to do
There are days I can't remember
There are days that last forever
Someday I'll come out from under you
Out from under you
Out from under you
Out from under you
Out from under you
Out from under you

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

"Under You" by Foo Fighters is an emotional and relatable song about overcoming the controlling force that is grief. Seeing as the entire album this song is on is dedicated to legendary drummer Taylor Hawkins, who sadly passed away before this album was made, it can be concluded that this song is about the band's own struggles in overcoming the grief that was put upon them with the passing of their fellow member.
