Times Like These Lyrics

I, I'm a one way motorway
I'm the road 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

It's times like these you learn to live again
It's times like these you...

    It's about the moment after a period of depression or sadness when you realize everything's going to be alright - in a phrase, 'You learn to live again.'

    The 'new day rising' and the 'brand new sky' are all metaphors for this... Leave the past behind and embrace the future!

    I love this song.
    It's freeing and uplifting to me. I think it's about moving on and forgiving. How freeing is that!

    Written after Taylor Hawkins overdosed. It's about Dave Grohl's forgiveness and sticking with his friend.
