Cover art for On The Mend lyrics by Foo Fighters

I think it's about losing a girl. "One more day that I've survived another night alone. Pay no mind I'm doin' fine, breathing on my own." You tell the girl not to worry that you'll make it and you don't want her to feel sorry in any way. "Wake me when the hour arrives..." When you come around and realize I'm meant for you, let me know.

For me it's just about trying to make it on your own but all the while knowing that when that person comes around you'll fall for her again... "See you somewhere down the line we're teathered once again."
