There is a place where the losers win A port of call for desperate men It is known by many names We come and go but it remains Nobody cares, nobody cries If you're scared or if you die That's the way it goes You should know You're in the place they call the night-side In the shadows where the killers and the pirates hide Stick around if you think you can survive In the city on the night-side Running scared through endless night Too afraid to put up a fight They shackle her wrists It's too late to resist Scanned for weapons and transmitters Sold at auction to the highest bidder That's the way it goes Now you know You can find us on the night-side In the shadows where the killers and the pirates hide Come around if you think you can survive In the city on the night-side You can find us on the night-side In the shadows where the killers and the pirates hide Come around if you think you can survive In the place they call the night-side

You know what's funny . . . I'm pure roots rock&metal; . . . high school early '90's in Seattle . . . I liked grunge, but it introduced me to all of this music that I ACTUALLY still listen to . . . with very little grunge still on the play list for that matter. This band effing has the stuff. I digress-I know very little of The Foo Fighters music, but from all of the Dave Grohl interviews, you can hear the desperation in his voice as he is fighting for relevance. You would think that with The Sword's fabric of Sabbath, UFO, Zeppelin, early Metallica and a bit of thin Lizzy that Dave and his lazy-ass arena rock band would at the very least have figured "this" formula out . . . It is a band like The Sword that keep the Dave Grohl's up at night . . .
