Oh you know I did it
It's over and I feel fine
Nothing you could say is gonna change my mind
Waiting and I wait at the longest night
Nothing like the taste to sweet decline
I was down, I fell, I fell so fast
Dropping like the grains in an hourglass
Never say forever cause nothing last
Dancing with the thorns of my buried past
Nevermind there's nothing I can do
Bet your life there's something killing you
It's a shame we have to die my dear
No ones getting out of here, alive
This time
What a way to go, they have no fear
No ones getting out of here, alive
This time
Finished, I'm getting you off my chest
Made you come clean in a dirty dress
A promise is a promise you kept in check
Heart across a heart that beats it's best
Take a good hard look for the very last time
The very last one in a very long line
Only took a second to say goodbye
Then the pleasure 'bout the pleasure's
Been mine, all mine
Ain't no way, DOA
Ain't no way, DOA
It's a shame we have to disappear
No ones getting out of here, alive
This time
This time
This time
It's over and I feel fine
Nothing you could say is gonna change my mind
Waiting and I wait at the longest night
Nothing like the taste to sweet decline
I was down, I fell, I fell so fast
Dropping like the grains in an hourglass
Never say forever cause nothing last
Dancing with the thorns of my buried past
Nevermind there's nothing I can do
Bet your life there's something killing you
It's a shame we have to die my dear
No ones getting out of here, alive
This time
What a way to go, they have no fear
No ones getting out of here, alive
This time
Finished, I'm getting you off my chest
Made you come clean in a dirty dress
A promise is a promise you kept in check
Heart across a heart that beats it's best
Take a good hard look for the very last time
The very last one in a very long line
Only took a second to say goodbye
Then the pleasure 'bout the pleasure's
Been mine, all mine
Ain't no way, DOA
Ain't no way, DOA
It's a shame we have to disappear
No ones getting out of here, alive
This time
This time
This time

That's what I see here
There could be other meanings though. This one is kind of simple I guess.
OKH is right as far as I believe: the lyric is "Dancing with the bones of my buried past".
A) It makes more sense as bones are buried, and not thorns, and B) it's what Dave Grohl sings!
Interesting point about murder too.
I think it's about people who are born into this world basically dead because they have a useless boring life. And that you should do as much as you can in the amount of time you have so you don't end up being alive yet being dead personality-wise.
