Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Have you been headwired?
Were you satisfied?
Did it free the feelings in your spine?
Sleeping way inside all this time
Will your meet your mind
Where the night collides?
Will you greet yourself when the sun arrives?
I'll just stay behind, I've met mine

Better than a bullet being fired
Tangled in your headwires now
Better than a bullet being fired
Tangled in your headwires
Headwires now

Help you feed the wires
When your head unwinds?
And if our headlines become entwined
You can have all mine, I'll be fine
There's a reason why
Keeping me alive
There's a cure in me that I wish were mine
As long as I can fight, I'll survive

Better than a bullet being fired
Tangled in your headwires now
Better than a bullet being fired
Tangled in your headwires
Headwires

Stationed on the wire (headwires)
One day I'll let go (headwires)
Tell them all, "Hello" (headwires)
Tell them all, "Hello" (headwires)
Stationed on the wire (headwires)
One day I'll let go (headwires)
Tell them all, "Hello" (headwires)
Tell them all, "Hello" (headwires)
Headwire

Hello

The sun is on Arlandria
Sun is on Arlandria
Headwire
Headwire
The sun is on Arlandria
Sun is on Arlandria
Headwire
Headwire
The sun is on Arlandria
Sun is on Arlandria

Overall Meaning

Headwires by Foo Fighters is a song that delves into the theme of self-discovery and personal introspection. The lyrics of the song reflect the journey of an individual who is exploring different facets of their own minds, and the emotions that lay dormant within.

Sleeping way inside all this time" are a reflection of the need for self-discovery, and the desire to explore the depths of one's own mind.


As the song progresses, the lyrics delve deeper into the theme of self-discovery and the power of the mind. The chorus of the song "Better than a bullet being fired, tangled in your headwires now" is a metaphor for the power of the mind that can entangle an individual's thoughts and lead them towards a path of self-destruction. The song talks about the importance of acknowledging one's own emotions, and the positive impact it can have in helping to overcome any negative thoughts or feelings that are present.


The second half of the song delves into the concept of finding one's own identity and self-worth, and the importance of standing up for oneself. The line "There's a cure in me that I wish were mine" is a reflection of the desire to uncover one's own potential, and the belief that there is a solution to any problem that lies within. The closing lines of the song "The sun is on Arlandria, stationed on the wire, one day I'll let go, tell them all 'Hello', tell them all 'Hello'" are a powerful reflection of the need to move forward and leave behind everything that has held an individual back.
