  • I, I'm a one way motorway
    I'm the one that drives away
    Then follows you back home
    I, I'm a street light shining
    I'm a wild light blinding bright
    Burning off alone

    Oh

    It's times like these you learn to live again
    It's times like these we give and give again
    It's times like these you learn to love again
    It's times like these, time and time again

    Oh

    I, I'm a new day rising
    I'm a brand new sky
    To hang the stars upon tonight
    I am a little divided
    Do I stay or run away
    And leave it all behind?

    I know
    It's times like these you learn to live again
    It's times like these you give and give again
    It's times like these you learn to love again
    It's times like these, time and time again

    Let's go
    It's time like these that we activate
    Do something to improve, not procrastinate
    I been cooking now, make a wicked pasta plate
    Stream games at 11 but I clap at 8
    And I'll do a FaceTime if you tempt me
    Time to pay back what the health doc's lent me
    And for me West Ten's elementary
    But right now I wanna see Ladbroke Grove empty
    You get me?

    We make it better together, we make a better life
    Because the pressure is ever upon us every night
    And everyday so we pray and we will forever fight
    We make it better together, we make a better life

    I, I'm a one way motorway
    I'm the one that drives away
    Then follows you back home
    I, I'm a street light shining
    I'm a wild light blinding bright
    Burning off alone
    Alone, alone

    It's times like these you learn to live again
    It's times like these you give and give again
    It's times like these you learn to love again
    It's times like these time and time again

    It's times like these you learn to live again
    It's times like these you learn to love again Writer/s: Christopher A. Shiflett, David Eric Grohl, Nathan Mendel, Oliver Taylor Hawkins
