Rescue Me Theme Song Lyrics

The first episode of Rescue Me aired in 2004 on FX, and the show ended with a 90-minute series finale three years later. It is about New York City firefighters from Ladder 62, Engine 99 and Battalion 25.

The series chronicles the life of Tommy Gavin, a veteran fireman who struggles to cope with his wife Janet. She left him after she found out that he had been having an affair with another woman—who later died in the 9/11 attacks.

Gavin’s family problems are prominent in the series, including his daughter Colleen—who is addicted to alcohol and drugs—and his brother Johnny, who was driven insane after being trapped under rubble during the 9/11 attacks.

Rescue Me is a show that hits its audience hard—with excellent writing and powerful performances. Its edge sets it apart from other shows of the same genre.

Tommy Gavin, who is played by Denis Leary, tries to maintain control of both his professional and personal life, but fails at the latter.

All members of the cast performed extremely well. Adam Ferrara, who is a fireman in real life, plays Terry flawlessly; Michael Lombardi and Steven Pasquale are also outstanding as Mike Silletti and franko Rivera—two cousins they portrayed in real life just like their characters.

The theme song for the show, “C’mon C’mon” by The Von Bondies, is catchy and energetic.

It’s a show about people who have to face challenges so difficult that they change them forever. The show can be graphic and intense, but it also shows us how we grow stronger in the face of adversity if we keep fighting for what is right.

This show demonstrates the importance of being strong for those you care about and how important family is.

Lyrics

On another day cmon cmon
With these ropes tied tight can we do no wrong
Now we grieve cause now it’s gone
Things were good when we were young

With my teeth bite down I can see the blood
Of a thousand men who have come and gone
Now we grieve cause now it’s gone
Things were good when we were young

Is it safe to say cmon cmon
Was it right to leave cmon cmon
Will I ever learn cmon cmon
cmon cmon cmon cmon

As I make my way cmon cmon
Through these battered nights that seem too long
Now we grieve cause now it’s gone
Things were good when we were young

With my teeth bite down I can see the blood
Of a thousand men who have come and gone
Now we grieve cause now it’s gone
Things were good when we were young

Is it safe to say cmon cmon
Was it right to leave cmon cmon
Will I never learn cmon cmon
cmon cmon cmon cmon

Is it safe to say cmon cmon
Was it right to leave cmon cmon
Will I never learn cmon cmon
cmon cmon cmon cmon

And on this day these deepened wounds don’t heal so fast
Can’t hear me croon of a million lies that speak no truths
Of a time gone by that now is through
