I feel like this first song sets up the themes of But Here We Are, namely life/death and Illusions of both along with their trappings and joy and pain. You can have everything or have list everything but we're all part of it, we all dance and we're all trapped here from the Royalty to the rest of us. It's such a great thing Dave Grohl always does with his lyrics and compositions in that it could and usually to the many music fans does mean several things at once. And this opener sets the tones of the very emotional very amazing album from the Get. Dave may be trapped or joyous or both but usually something happens big that stops it all, stops us in our tracks. Noone can escape it and we all are wiser and perhaps can make some sense or even just a little peace of mind when tragedy or change strikes us all. I Don't really know what Senor Grohl s intentions are with this but I believe he's a Mastercat stating the problem or concern and the making his way which ideally is inspiring to us all to Carry on our Wayward pursuits in the face of it all, in the Valley of the Shadows. Foo Fighters have played on these themes since the Beginning (Something From Nothing, I Am A River, Saint Cecicilia, Times Like These, Learn To Fly, Walk, The Pretender, End Over End, Best Of You, I'll Stick Around, February Stars, and on and always come out on Top just about all the Time. Now that's Life and HowcTo Live It Dudes!🤠👍🎸🥁🔥🎵✌️
