This Is Why (Re: Foals) lyrics - Paramore & Foals
Why
Why
This is why
I don't leave the house
You say the coast is clear
But you won't catch me out
Oh, why?
This is why
Why
Why
If you have an opinion
Maybe you should shove it
Or maybe you could scream it
Might be best to keep it
To yourself
To yourself
Why
This is why
I don't leave the house
You say the coast is clear
But you won't catch me out
Oh, why?
This is why
This is why
I don't leave the house
You say the coast is clear
But you won't catch me out
Oh, why?
This is why
Why
One step beyond your door
It might as well have been a free fall
One step beyond your door
Falling down an endless hall
One step beyond your door
Might as well have been a free fall
One step beyond your door
And I'm floating like a cannonball
Better have conviction
We want crimes of passion
Survival of the fittest
You're either with us or you can keep it
To yourself
To yourself
To yourself, yourself, yourself
To yourself
Why
This is why
I don't leave the house
You say the coast is clear
But oh, no, you won't catch me out
This is why
I don't leave the house
You say the coast is clear
But oh, no, you won't catch me out
This is why
I don't leave the house
You say the coast is clear
But oh, no, you won't catch me out
This is why
I don't leave the house
You say the coast is clear
But oh, no, you won't catch me out
This is why
I don't leave the house
You say the coast is clear
But oh, no, you won't catch me out
This is why
I don't leave the house
You say the coast is clear
But oh, no, you won't catch me out
This is why
I don't leave the house
You say the coast is clear
But oh, no, you won't catch me out
This is why
I don't leave the house
You say the coast is clear

Oh, why
This is why
One step beyond your door

The News (Re: The Linda Lindas) lyrics - Paramore & The Linda Lindas
A war
War
A war
A war
On the far side
On the other side of the planet
And I've got
War
A war
A war
Right behind my eyes
Right behind 'em just like a headache
So I turn on
The news
Turn off
The news
Every second our collective heart breaks
All together every single head shakes
Shut your eyes, but it won't go away
Turn on, turn off the news
Every second our collective heart breaks
All together every single head shakes
Shut your eyes, but it won't go away
Turn on, turn off the news
Far
I'm far
So far
From a frontline
Quite the opposite, I'm safe inside
But I worry and I give money
And I feel useless behind this computer
And that's just barely scratched the surface of my mind
So I turn on
The news
Turn off
Turn on, turn off the news
Turn on
The news
Turn off
Every second our collective heart breaks
All together every single head shakes
Shut your eyes, but it won't go away
Turn on, turn off the news
Every second our collective heart breaks
All together every single head shakes
Shut your eyes, but it won't go away
Turn on, turn off the news

Running Out Of Time (Re: Panda Bear) lyrics - Paramore & Panda Bear
(Mm) Time's up again
I'm plannin' the getaway
Or grindin' the life away
I can't tell
I wanna say
I'm throwin' another die
Or hopin' to nullify
I can't tell (Mm)
I'm always runnin' outta time
I'm not the lucky one, I keep to myself
Then wish for better, I can't tell
(Mm) Every now and then
Can't hide it, I'm turnin' up
Sidesteppin' the truth somewhat
I can't tell
I know it's meant
Can't tell if I've had enough
If I'm givin' or givin' up
I can't tell (Mm)
I'm always runnin' outta time
I'm not the lucky one, I keep to myself
Then wish for better, just can't tell (Mm)
I got a mystery I keep to myself
Put it together 'cause I can't tell
Time's up again
I'm plannin' the getaway
Or grindin' the life away
I can't tell
A secret I can't tell
I can't tell
A secret I can't tell
Think I feel a fracture in the mirror, just can't tell
And I got a feelin' it's unlockin', now I've fell
Always runnin' out of time
Think I feel a fracture in the mirror, just can't tell
And I got a feelin' it's unlockin', now I've fell
I can't tell
Mm
Running Out Of Time (Re: Zane Lowe) lyrics - Paramore & Zane Lowe
I'm always running out of time
I'm always running out of time
I'm always running out of time
I'm always running out of time
I'm always running out of time
I'm always running out of time
We're always running out of
I'm always running out of time
C'est Comme Ça (Re: Wet Leg) lyrics - Paramore & Wet Leg
In a single year
I've aged a hundred
My social life, a chiropractic appointment
Sit still long enough just to listen to yourself
Or maybe just long enough for you to atrophy to hell
C'est comme ça
C'est comme ça, na-na-na
C'est comme ça
C'est comme ça, na-na-na
C'est comme ça
C'est comme ça, na-na-na
C'est comme ça
C'est comme ça, na-na-na
I'm off caffeine
On doctor's orders
Said it was going to help to level out my hormones
Lucky for me, I run on spite and sweet revenge
It's my dependence on the friction that really hinders my progression
C'est comme ça
C'est comme ça, na-na-na
C'est comme ça
C'est comme ça, na-na-na
C'est comme ça
C'est comme ça, na-na-na
C'est comme ça
C'est comme ça, na-na-na
I know that regression is rarely rewarded
I still need a certain degree of disorder
I hate to admit, getting better is boring
But the high cost of chaos, who can afford it?

Big Man, Little Dignity (Re: DOMi & JD BECK) lyrics - Paramore & DOMi & JD BECK
Don't mean to stare at you from across the room
It's like I'm glued to the sheer sight of you
And you're so smooth, it's pitiful
Know you could get away with anything, so that's exactly what you do
Big man, ooh-ooh
Little dignity
Big man, ooh-ooh
Little dignity
No offense but you
You got no integrity
Big man, ooh-ooh
Ooh, la-la-la, little dignity
Well-well-well, look at you
Don't you clean up nice?
Bet it feels good to leave the past behind
Your subscription to redemption has been renewed
You keep your head high
Smooth operator in a shit-stained suit
Big man, ooh-ooh
Little dignity
Big man, ooh-ooh
Little dignity
No offense but you
You got no integrity
Big man, ooh-ooh
Ooh, la-la-la, little dignity
Oh, I can't look away
I memorized all your lines
I can't look away, you're like a movie that I love to hate
I fantasize your demise
I should look away because I know you're never gonna change
I keep thinking this time the end will be different
But it isn't
I keep thinking
The end is gonna be different
But you keep on winning
Big man, ooh-ooh
Little dignity
Big man, ooh-ooh
Little dignity
No offense, but you
You got no integrity
Big man, ooh-ooh
Ooh, la-la-la, little dignity
You First (Re: Remi Wolf) lyrics - Paramore & Remi Wolf
Two, three, four
Everyone is bad
So why are you a pacifist?
You should take it from me
Yeah, you should be full of it
Yeah, you said it with your chest now, baby
Now I'm living in a horror film
I'm the devil, I'ma break you down, slow life holdin'
Dents in the walls, you saw me coming, guess not
Just like a stray animal you keep feeding scraps
You're gonna give me your energy
Oh-oh-oh
And I'ma keep on coming back
Just like a stray animal you keep feeding scraps
You're gonna give me your energy
Oh-oh-oh
And I'ma keep on coming
Everyone is a bad guy
And there's no way, no way to know who's the worst
But karma's gonna come for all of us
And I hope, yeah, I hope, I just hope
She comes, comes for you first, oh
Oh, comes for you first, oh
Oh, comes for-
I hit you with a stick
Gonna hit you with a tide of bricks
I'm at the foot of your bed
Waiting for you to throw a fist
Which wolf will win now, baby?
Guess we're gonna have to wait and see
I like it when you're pissed off, fucked up in the head
It makes me feel a little less crazy, oh
Just like a stray animal you keep feeding scraps
You're gonna give me your energy
Oh-oh-oh
And I'ma keep on coming back
Just like a stray animal you keep feeding scraps
You're gonna give me your energy
Oh-oh-oh
And I'ma keep on coming
Everyone is a bad guy
And there's no way, no way to know who's the worst
But karma's gonna come for all of us
And I hope, yeah, I hope, I just hope
She comes, comes for you first, oh
Oh, comes for you first, oh
Oh, comes for you first
Figure 8 (Re: Bartees Strange) lyrics - Paramore & Bartees Strange
Yeah, once you get me going
Yeah, once you get me going
Yeah, once you get me going
Yeah, once you get me
I don't know how to stop
I don't know how to
Yeah, once you get me going
Drained me dry
Down to the last drop
Yeah, once you get me going
Pearls before swine, all flowers die
Tapped the last good vein, don't know how to shut it off
Yeah, once you get me going
I don't know how to stop
I don't know how to stop
Yeah, once you get me going
I don't know how to stop
I don't know how to
All for your sake
Became the very thing that I hate
I lost my way
Spinning in an endless figure 8
Yeah, once you get me going
Yeah, once you get me-
I
Won't miss the feeling
My flimsy spine
Unsuspicious mind
I was only being kind
But you mistook me for weak
And once I get going
Mmm-hmm
I don't know how to stop
I don't know how to stop
Going
Ooh, yeah
I don't know how to stop
I don't know how to
All for your sake
Became the very thing that I hate
I lost my way
Spinning in an endless figure
All for your sake
Became the very thing I hate
I lost my way
Ending in this figure 8
All for your sake
Became the very thing I hate
I lost my way
Spinning in a figure 8
Spinning in a figure 8
Spinning in a figure 8
Spinning in a figure 8
Spinning in a figure 8
All for your sake
Became the very thing I hate
I lost my way, I lost my way
I lost my way
Spinning in a figure 8
Figure 8
Liar (Re: Romy) lyrics - Paramore & Romy
Love is not an easy thing to admit
But I'm not ashamed of it
Love is not a weakening
If you feel it rushing in
Don't be ashamed of it
Love is not an easy thing to admit
But I'm not ashamed of it
Love is not a weakening
If you feel it rushing in
Don't be ashamed of it
What was the moment? It's hard to say
I'm sure I don't remember anyway
Before I only knew to hesitate
Pin back in the grenade
Does a light show up on my face?
Does it feel right in the wrong way?
What if I loved you and never said it?
Hide the emotion under the bed, would all
The energy I waste
Be better shared with you?
And, oh my love, I lied to you
But I never needed to
Oh my love, I lied to you
But you always knew the truth
I got too good at fighting chemicals
And dodging arrows I was asking for
Wading through the fog, and then it disappeared
Naked when I'm here
I'm getting good at giving alibis
Imagination runs wild
No fear and self-doubt
Heart beating in my mouth
Now every time I catch my line
I want to set it free
Love is not an easy thing to admit
But I'm not ashamed of it
Love is not a weakening
If you feel it rushing in
Don't be ashamed of it
Oh, oh-oh
Love is not an easy thing to admit
But I'm not ashamed of it
Oh, oh-oh
Love is not a weakening
If you feel it rushing in
Don't be ashamed of it
And, oh my love, I lied to you
But I never needed to
Oh my love, I lied to you
But you always knew the truth
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh my love, I lied to you
But I never needed to
Oh my love, I lied to you
But you always knew the truth
Crave (Re: Claud) lyrics - Paramore & Claud
I can't wait to memorize this day
Oh, a picture could not contain
The way it feels
You say, "Live in the present"
I'm already dreaming of how it begins
And trying to savor the moment
But I know the feeling will come to an end
So I
Crave
Crave to do it again
All again
Crave
Crave to do it again, I
Just for a second, it all felt simple
I'm already missing it
So I
Crave
Crave to do it again
All again
I romanticize even the worst of times
When all it took to make me cry
Was being alive
Look up and see a reflection of someone who never gave way to the pain
What if I told 'em that now that I'm older, there isn't a moment that I'd wanna change
Now I
Crave
Crave to do it again
All again
Crave
Crave to do it again, I
Just for a second, it all felt simple
I'm already missing it
So I crave
Crave to do it again
All again
Any second
Feel the present
Future and the past
Connecting
Any second
Feel the present
Future and the past
Connecting
Crave
Crave, to do it again
All again
Crave
Crave to do it again, I
Just for a second, it all felt simple
I'm already missing it
So I crave
Crave to do it again
All again
Thick Skull (Re: Julien Baker) lyrics - Paramore & Julien Baker
I am a magnet for broken pieces
I am attracted to broken people
I pick 'em up and now my fingers are bleeding
And it looks like I'm
And it looks like I'm caught
Red-handed
Hit over the head
Epiphany
Over my head
Repeatedly
Thick skull never did
Nothing for me
Same lesson again?
Come on, give it to me
Only I know where all the bodies are buried
Thought by now I'd find 'em just a little less scary
Might get easier, but you don't get used to it
Keep on autopilot
What's the body count up to now, captain?
Hit over the head
Epiphany
Over my head
Repeatedly
Thick skull never did
Nothing for me
Same lesson again?
Come on, give it to me
I pick 'em up and now my fingers are bleeding
And it looks like I'm caught
Red-handed
Come on out with your hands up
Come on out with your hands up
I'm coming out with my hands up
Coming out with your hands up
Hit over the head
Epiphany
Over my head
Repeatedly
Thick skull never did
Nothing for me
Same lesson again?
Come on, give it to me
Sanity (Demo) lyrics - Paramore
Sanity, why must you make a fool of me?
You been a friend to me, now I think that we're enemies, yeah, yeah
If I fall on my knees, I hear you laughin'
If I call on your name, you don't come
No one home, but the void is loud
This must be the void
Echoes around my empty house
This must be the void
Synapses are slowin' down
But this must be the void they always talk about
This must be the void
Levity, fill me up, let me flow
I'll let you take care of me, you can help me let go
If I fall on my knees, I hear you laughin'
If I call on your name, you don't come
No one home, but the void is loud
This must be the void
Echoes around my empty house
This must be the void
Synapses are slowin' down
But this must be the void they always talk about
No one home, but the void is loud
This must be the void
Echoes around my empty house
This must be the void
Synapses are slowin' down
But this must be the void they always talk about
This must be the void
Finally, I have arrived
Finally, I have arrived
And there is nothin' to see
Finally, I have arrived
And there is nothin' to grieve
Finally, I have arrived, arrived, arrived, 'rived
No one home, but the void is loud
This must be the void
Echoes around my empty house
This must be the void
Synapses are slowin' down
But this must be the void they always talk about
This must be the void
No one home, but the void is loud
This must be the void
Echoes around my empty house
This must be the void
Synapses are slowin' down
But this must be the void they always talk about
This must be the void

Running Out Of Time lyrics - Paramore
Said I was gonna take some flowers to my neighbor, but I
Ran out of time
Didn't wanna show up to the party empty-handed, but I
Ran out of time
Said I'd walk the dog a little further than the driveway tonight
The extra mile
Thought I'd send a card with my condolences, but, damn, I
Just ran out of time
Intentions only get you so far
What if I'm just a selfish prick? No regard
I, I'm always running out of time
I'm always running out of time
Never mind, I hit the snooze on my alarm twenty times
But I was just so tired
There was traffic, spilled my coffee, crashed my car, otherwise
Woulda been here on time
Shoulda, coulda, wouldn't matter, ultimate alibi
You know it's a lie
There was a fire (Metaphorically)
Be there in five (Hyperbolically)
Intentions only get you so far (It was on my list, I swear I meant to get to it)
A harsh reality to discover
I, I'm always running out of time
She's always running out of time
I'm always running out of time
Why we gotta be in a rush?
My watch is just for decoration (Mm)
Look, I showed up early for once
Now that's a new sensation (Mm)
We're always running out of time
She's always running out of time
I'm always running out of time
I'm always running out of time
She's always running out of time, out of time
I'm always running out of time

You First lyrics - Paramore
Living well is not my kind of revenge
You should take it from me
Living well is just a privilege
Thought I'd simmer down as I got older
Can't shake the devil sitting on my shoulder
Who invited you?
Just like a stray animal
I keep feeding scraps
I give it my energy
And it keeps on coming back
Just like a stray animal
I keep feeding scraps
I give it my energy
And it keeps on coming
Everyone is a bad guy
And there's no way, no way to know who's the worst
Karma's gonna come for all of us
And I hope, I hope, I just hope, she comes, comes for you first, oh
Which wolf wins?
I guess it really depends
Just gotta wait and see
Which one's appetite's the biggest
Turns out I'm living in a horror film
Where I'm both the killer and the final girl
So who, who are you?
Just like a stray animal
I keep feeding scraps
I give it my energy
And it keeps on coming back
Just like a stray animal
I keep feeding scraps
I give it my energy
And it keeps on coming
Everyone is a bad guy
And there's no way, no way to know who's the worst
Karma's gonna come for all of us
And I hope, I hope, I just hope, she comes, comes for you first, oh
Never said I wasn't petty
Never said I wasn't petty
I never said I wasn't petty
You can bet I don't regret it for a second
It's a pleasure, it's a reckoning
Never said I wasn't petty
I'll do better when you're better
Let me revel in your defeat
Everyone is a bad guy
And there's no way, no way to know who's the worst
Karma's gonna come for all of us
And I hope, I hope, I just hope, she comes, comes for you first, oh
Figure 8 lyrics - Paramore
Drained me dry
Down to the last drop
Pearls before swine
All flowers die
Tapped the last good vein
Don't know how to shut it off
Yeah, once you get me going
I don't know how to stop
I don't know how to stop
Once you get me going
I don't know how to stop
I don't know how to
All for your sake
Became the very thing that I hate
I lost my way
Spinning in an endless figure 8
I
Won't miss the feeling
My flimsy spine
Unsuspicious mind
I was only being kind
But you mistook me for weak
And once I get going
I don't know how to stop
I don't know how to stop
Going
I don't know how to stop
I don't know how to
All for your sake
Became the very thing that I hate
I lost my way
Spinning in an endless figure 8
Candle light
Candle light
Burning 'til broad daylight
Candle light
Candle light
Burning at both ends tonight
How could I?
How could I?
If I'm made of thin ice
How could I?
How could I?
You'd be wise if you thought twice
All for your sake
Became the very thing that I hate
I lost my way
Spinning in an endless figure
What remains?
And now I think I'm losing my shape
Not a trace
No end and no beginning, figure 8
Liar lyrics - Paramore
What was the moment? It's hard to say
I'm sure I don't remember anyway
Before I only knew to hesitate
Pin back in the grenade
And all the ways I'd keep you safe
I keep you safe
From me
And, oh my love, I lied to you
But I never needed to
Oh my love, I lied to you
But you always knew the truth
I got too good at fighting chemicals
And dodging arrows I was asking for
Wading through the fog, and then it disappeared
Naked when I'm here
And why should I deny what's all at once so crystal clear?
(And why should I deny what's all at once so crystal clear?)
And, oh my love, I lied to you
But I never needed to
Oh my love, I lied to you
But you always knew the truth
Love is not an easy thing to admit
But I'm not ashamed of it
Love is not a weakening
If you feel it rushing in
Don't be ashamed of it
Love is not an easy thing to admit
But I'm not ashamed of it
Love is not a weakening
If you feel it rushing in
Don't be ashamed of it
And, oh my love, I lied to you
But I never needed to
Oh my love, I lied to you
But you always knew the truth
And, oh my love, I lied to you
But I never needed to
Oh my love, I lied to you
But you always knew the truth
Crave lyrics - Paramore
I can't wait to memorize this day
Oh, a picture could not contain
The way it feels
You say, "Live in the present."
I'm already dreaming of how it begins
And trying to savor the moment
But I know the feeling will come to an end
So I
Crave
Crave to do it again
All again
Crave
Crave to do it again, I
Just for a second it all felt simple
I'm already missing it
So I
Crave
Crave to do it again
All again
I romanticize even the worst of times
When all it took to make me cry
Was being alive
Look up and see a reflection of someone who never gave way to the pain
What if I told 'em, now that I'm older, there isn't a moment that I'd wanna change
Now I
Crave
Crave to do it again
All again
Crave
Crave to do it again, I
Just for a second it all felt simple
I'm already missing it
So I crave
Crave to do it again
All again
Any second
Feel the present
Future and the past
Connecting
Any second
Feel the present
Future and the past
Connecting
Crave
Crave, to do it again (Do it)
All again
Crave
Crave to do it again, I
Just for a second it all felt simple
I'm already missing it
So I crave
Crave to do it again
All again
Thick Skull lyrics - Paramore
I am a magnet for broken pieces
I am attracted to broken people
I pick 'em up, and now my fingers are bleeding
And it looks like my fault
And it looks like I'm caught
Red-handed
Hit over the head
Epiphany
Over my head
Repeatedly
Thick skull never did
Nothing for me
Same lesson again?
Come on, give it to me
Give it to me, give it to me, give it to me
Only I know where all the bodies are buried
Thought by now I'd find 'em just a little less scary
Might get easier, but you don't get used to it
Keep on autopilot, mmm
Hey, hey
What's the body count up to now, captain?
Hit over the head
Epiphany
Over my head
Repeatedly
Thick skull never did
Nothing for me
Same lesson again?
C'mon, give it to me
Give it to me, give it to me, give it to me
Come on out with your hands up
Come on out with your hands up
I'm coming out with my hands up, mmm
Come on out with your hands up
Hit over the head
Epiphany
Over my head
Repeatedly
Thick skull never did
Nothing for me
Same lesson again?
C'mon, give it to me
Give it to me, give it to me, give it to me
I pick 'em up and now my fingers are bleeding
And it looks like I'm caught
Red-handed
Hard Times lyrics - Paramore
All that I want
Is to wake up fine
Tell me that I'm alright
That I ain't gonna die
All that I want
Is a hole in the ground
You can tell me when it's alright
For me to come out
Hard times
Gonna make you wonder why you even try
Hard times
Gonna take you down and laugh when you cry
These lives
And I still don't know how I even survive
Hard times
Hard times
And I gotta get to rock bottom
Walking around
With my little rain cloud
Hanging over my head
And it ain't coming down
Where do I go?
Gimme some sort of sign
You hit me with lightning!
Maybe I'll come alive
Hard times
Gonna make you wonder why you even try
Hard times
Gonna take you down and laugh when you cry
These lives
And I still don't know how I even survive
Hard times
Hard times
And I gotta hit rock bottom
Tell my friends I'm coming down
We'll kick it when I hit the ground
Tell my friends I'm coming down
We'll kick it when I hit the ground
When I hit the ground
When I hit the ground
When I hit the ground
When I hit the ground
Hard times
Gonna make you wonder why you even try
Hard times
Gonna take you down and laugh when you cry
These lives
And I still don't know how I even survive
Hard times (hard times)
Hard times (hard times)
Hard times
Gonna make you wonder why you even try
Hard times
Gonna take you down and laugh when you cry
These lives
And I still don't know how I even survive
Hard times (hard times)
Hard times
(Makes you wonder why you even try
Makes you wonder why you even try
Makes you wonder why you even try
Makes you wonder sometimes)
(Still don't know how I even survive
Still don't know how I even survive
Still don't know how I even survive
Still don't know how I survive)
And I gotta get to rock bottom
Rose-Colored Boy lyrics - Paramore
Low-key, no pressure, just hang with me and my weather
Low-key, no pressure, just hang with me and my weather
Rose-colored boy
I hear you making all that noise
About the world you want to see
And oh, I'm so annoyed
'Cause I just killed off what was left of the optimist in me
Hearts are breaking, wars are raging on
And I have taken my glasses off
You got me nervous
I'm right at the end of my rope
A half-empty girl
Don't make me laugh, I'll choke
Just let me cry a little bit longer
I ain't gon' smile if I don't want to
Hey man, we all can't be like you
I wish we were all rose-colored too
My rose-colored boy
Low-key, no pressure, just hang with me and my weather
And I want you to stop insisting that I'm not a lost cause
'Cause I've been through a lot
Really all I've got is just to stay pissed off
If it's alright by you
But hearts are breaking, and wars are raging on
And I have taken my glasses off
You got me nervous
When you're turning it into a joke
A half-empty girl
Don't make me laugh, I'll...
Just let me cry a little bit longer
I ain't gon' smile if I don't want to
Hey, man, we all can't be like you
I wish we were all rose-colored too
My rose-colored boy
Leave me here a little bit longer
I think I wanna stay in the car
I don't want anybody seeing me cry now
You say "We gotta look on the bright side"
I say "Well maybe if you wanna go blind"
You say my eyes are getting too dark now
But boy, you ain't ever seen my mind
Just let me cry a little bit longer
I ain't gon' smile if I don't want to
Hey, man, we all can't be like you
I wish we were all rose-colored too
My rose-colored boy
Just let me cry a little bit longer
I ain't gon' smile if I don't want to
I know we all can't be like you
I wish we were all rose-colored too
My rose-colored boy
Low-key, no pressure, just hang with me and my weather
Low-key, no pressure, just hang with me and my weather
Told You So lyrics - Paramore
For all I know
The best is over and the worst is yet to come
Is it enough?
To keep on hoping when the rest have given up?
And they go
I hate to say I told you so
But they love to say they told me so
I hate to say I told you so
But they love to say they told me
Say they say they told me
Say they say they told me
You say, you say you told me
I know you like
When I admit that I was wrong and you were right
At least I try
To keep my cool when I am thrown into a fire
And they go
I hate to say I told you so
But they love to say they told me so
I hate to say I told you so
But they love to say they told me
Say they say they told me
Say they say they told me
You say, you say you told me
Throw me into the fire
Throw me in, pull me out again
Throw me into the fire
Throw me in, pull me out again
Throw me into the fire
Throw me in, pull me out again
Throw me into the fire
Throw me in, pull me out again
Throw me into the fire
Throw me in, pull me out again
Throw me into the fire
Throw me in, pull me out again
Throw me into the fire
Throw me in, pull me out again
Throw me into the fire
Throw me in, pull me out again
Throw me into the fire
Throw me in, pull me out again
I hate to say I told you so
But they love to say they told me so
I hate to say I told you so
But they love to say they told me
(Throw me into the fire
Throw me in, pull me out again)
Say they say they told me
(Throw me into the fire
Throw me in, pull me out again)
Say they say they told me
(Throw me into the fire
Throw me in, pull me out again)
You say, you say you told me
Say they told me, say they told me, told you so
Forgiveness lyrics - Paramore
You hurt me bad this time, no coming back
And I cried till I couldn't cry, another heart attack
If I lay on the floor, maybe I'll wake up
And I don't pick up when you call
'Cause your voice is a gun
Every word is a bullet hole
Shot a hole in the sun
If I never look up maybe I'll never notice
And you, you want forgiveness
But I, I just can't do it yet
There's still a thread that runs from your body to mine
And you can't break what you don't see, an invisible line
If I follow it down will we just be alright?
But it could take me all your life to learn to love
How I thought I could love someone
I haven't even begun
If it's all up to us we might as well give up
And you, you want forgiveness
(I can barely hang on to myself)
But I, I can't give you that
(I can't give you, I can't give you that)
And you, you want forgiveness
(I'm afraid that I'll have nothing left)
But I, I just can't do it yet
(I can't do, I just can't do it yet)
Don't you go and get it twisted
Forgiving is not forgetting
Don't you go and get it twisted
Forgiving is not forgetting
No, it's not forgetting
No, I'll never forget it, no
And you, you want forgiveness
(I can barely hang on to myself)
But I, I can't give you that
(I can't give you, I can't give you that)
And you, you want forgiveness
(I'm afraid that I'll have nothing left)
But I, I just can't do it yet
(I can't do, I just can't do it yet)
Fake Happy lyrics - Paramore
I love making you believe
What you get is what you see
But I'm so fake happy
I feel so fake happy
And I bet everybody here
Is just as insincere
We're all so fake happy
And I know fake happy
So I've been doing a good job of makin' 'em think
I'm quite alright, better hope I don't blink
You see it's easy when I'm stomping on a beat
But no one sees me when I crawl back underneath
If I smile with my teeth
Bet you believe me
If I smile with my teeth
I think I believe me
Oh please don't ask me how I've been
Don't make me play pretend
Oh no, oh what's the use
Oh please, I bet everybody here is fake happy too
And if I go out tonight, dress up my fears
You think I look alright with these mascara tears?
See I'm gonna draw up my lipstick wider than my mouth
And if the lights are low they'll never see me frown
If I smile with my teeth
Bet you believe me
If I smile with my teeth
I think I believe me
Oh please don't ask me how I've been
Don't make me play pretend
Oh no, oh oh what's the use?
Oh please, I bet everybody here is fake happy too
I know I said that I was doing good and that I'm happy now
I should've known when things were going good that's when I'd get knocked down
Oh please, just don't ask me how I've been
Don't make me play pretend
Oh no, oh no, oh what's the use?
Oh please, I bet everybody here is fake happy too
(Oh please)
(Oh please)
Oh please, I bet everybody here is fake happy too
(Carlos...)
26 lyrics - Paramore
Man, you really know how to get someone down
Everything was fine until you came around
I've been chasing after dreamers in the clouds
After all wasn't I the one who said
To keep your feet on the ground?
Man, you really brought me back down
Hold on to hope if you got it
Don't let it go for nobody
They say that dreaming is free
But I wouldn't care what it cost me
You got me tied up but I stay close to the window
And I talk to myself about the places that I used to go
I'm hoping someday maybe I'll just float away
And I'll forget every cynical thing you say
When you gonna hear me out
Man, you really bring me down
Hold on to hope if you got it
Don't let it go for nobody
They say that dreaming is free
But I wouldn't care what it cost me
Reality will break your heart
Survival will not be the hardest part
It's keeping all your hopes alive
When all the rest of you has died
So let it break your heart
And hold on to hope if you got it
Don't let it go for nobody
Hold on to hope if you got it
Don't let it go for nobody
They say that dreaming is free
I wouldn't care what it cost me
Pool lyrics - Paramore
As if the first cut wasn't deep enough
I dove in again cause I'm not into giving up
Coulda got the same rush from any lover's touch
But why get used to something new
'Cause no one breaks my heart like you
When you kiss me I wish we could see what happens next
For a moment I could forget what happens in my head
If I doubt you will you come through, happy second chance
Or happy ending
This time you don't leave me sinking
I'm under water
No air in my lungs
My eyes are open
And I'm giving up
You are the wave
I could never tame
If I survive I'll dive back in
As if the first blood didn't thrill enough
I went further out to see what else was left of us
Never found the deep end of our little ocean
Drain the fantasy of you headfirst into shallow pools
And I wonder is it better to get it over with
The illusion can shatter before we begin
If you're really sorry, happy second chance
I think I could forgive
This time you won't leave me sinking
I'm under water
No air in my lungs
My eyes are open
And I'm giving up
You are the wave
I could never tame
If I survive I'll dive back in
Dive back into
Right back into
Dive right back into you
Now I know you
Now I know you
Now that I know you
Dive right back into you
Back into
Right back into you
Dive right back into you
Now I know you
Now I know you
Now that I know you
Dive right back into you
I'm under water
No air in my lungs
My eyes are open
And I'm giving up
You are the wave
I could never tame
If I survive I'll dive back in
I'm under water
No air in my lungs
My eyes are open
And I'm giving up
You are the wave
I could never tame
If I survive I'll dive back in
I'll dive back in
I'll dive back
Grudges lyrics - Paramore
Strange how we found ourselves exactly where we left off
I know you're shaking my hand like it is the first time
Are we alright?
Are you recounting all my faults?
And are you racking your brain just to find them all?
Could it be that I've changed or did you?
Stop asking why
Why we had to waste so much time
Well, we just pick up, pick up and start again
'Cause we can't keep holding on to grudges
Time is a bastard I won't break my neck to get around it
But aren't we so brave to give up a fight
And let the years go by without us
'Cause now I feel you by my side
And I don't even care if it's been a while
I can feel that we've changed and we're better this way
Stop asking why
Why we had to waste so much time
Well, we just pick up, pick up and start again
'Cause we can't keep holding on to grudges
And if you wanna call me up or come over
Come on, we'll laugh 'till we cry
Like we did when we were kids
'Cause we can't keep holding on to grudges
Why did it take so long?
Why did it take so long?
Why did it take us so long to just let it go?
Why did it take us so long to stop holding on?
Stop asking why
Why we had to waste so much time
Well, we just pick up, pick up and start again
'Cause we can't keep holding on to grudges
And if you wanna call me up or come over
Come on we'll laugh till we cry
Like we did when we were kids
'Cause we can't keep holding on to grudges
We can't keep holding on to grudges
Could it be that I've changed
Could it be that I've changed
Could it be that I've changed
Could it be that I've changed or did you?
Caught In The Middle lyrics - Paramore
I can't think of getting old
It only makes me want to die
And I can't think of who I was
'Cause it just makes me want to cry, cry, cry, cry
Can't look back, can't look too far ahead
I got the point, I got the message
I'm just a little bit caught in the middle
I try to keep going but it's not that simple
I think I'm a little bit caught in the middle
Gotta keep going or they'll call me a quitter
Yeah I'm caught in the middle
I was dreaming life away
All the while just going blind
Can't see the forest for the trees
Behind the lids of my own eyes
Nostalgia's cool, but it won't help you now
A dream is good, if you don't wear it out
And I'm just a little bit caught in the middle
I try to keep going but it's not that simple
I think I'm a little bit caught in the middle
Gotta keep going or they'll call me a quitter
Yeah I'm caught in the middle
No, I don't need no help
I can sabotage me by myself
Don't need no one else
I can sabotage me by myself
I don't need no help
I can sabotage me by myself
Don't need no one else
I can sabotage me by myself
I don't need no help (all the glory days are gone)
I can sabotage me by myself
Don't need no one else (it's over now I'm on my own)
I can sabotage me by myself
I don't need no help (all the glory days are gone)
I can sabotage me by myself
Don't need no one else (it's over now I'm on my own)
I can sabotage me by myself
And I'm just a little bit caught in the middle
I try to keep going but it's not that simple
I think I'm a little bit caught in the middle
Gotta keep going or they'll call me a quitter
Yeah I'm caught in the middle
I'm caught in the middle
Idle Worship lyrics - Paramore
Standing here like I'm supposed to say something
Don't hold your breath, I never said I'd save you, honey
And I don't want your money
If I was you I'd run from me or rip me open
You'll see you're not the only one who's hopeless
Be sure to put your faith in something more
I'm just a girl and you're not as alone as you feel
We all got problems, don't we?
We all need heroes, don't we?
But rest assured there's not a single person here who's worthy
Don't let me let you down
Hey, baby I'm not your superhuman
And if that's what you want
I hate to let you down
I got your hopes up
Now I got you hoping
But I'm gonna be the one to let you down
Oh, it's such a long and awful lonely fall
Down from this pedestal that you keep putting me on
What if I fall on my face?
What if I make a mistake?
If it's okay a little grace would be appreciated
Remember how we used to like ourselves?
What little light that's left, we need to keep it sacred
I know that you're afraid to let all the dark escape you
But we could let the light illuminate these hopeless places
Just let me let you down
Hey, baby I'm not your superhuman
And if that's what you want
I hate to let you down
I got your hopes up
Now I got you hoping
But I'm gonna be the one to let you down
Oh, no, I ain't your hero
You're wasting all your faith on me
Oh, no, I know where this goes
Think it's safe to say your savior doesn't look a thing like me
Don't let me let you down
Hey, baby I'm not your superhuman
And if that's what you want
I hate to let you down
I got your hopes up
Now I got you hoping
But I'm gonna be the one to let you down
Hey, baby I'm not your superhuman
And if that's what you want
I hate to let you down
I got your hopes up
Now I got you hoping
But I'm gonna be the one to let you down
No Friend lyrics - Paramore (feat. Aaron Weiss)
I found these old letters from years ago
I felt it was fitting to continue this correspondence
Can't help I'm sentimental
Thanks for talking with me today
Hope this is helpful for you
I also hope Birdie is happy and healthy
And staying out of trouble to a reasonable extent
What I wrote was sort of my way
Of finally being able to address how it feels
Another brick-red room, another black-top town
Another misspelled band burning their own houses down
Another pine-box tune to fill the cemetery day
Another star, a touch of orange over purgatory gray
Another thorny field to scatter fruitless seed
Another song that runs too long, God knows no one needs
More misguided ghosts, more transparent hands
To drop a nickel in our basket and we'll do our riot!
Dance beneath another burning sky, behind our painted lips
In scores of catatonic smile-covered ankle-bitten ships
So throw your pedestal of stone in the forgetful sea
As protection from the paper-thin perfection you project on me
When this repetition ends behind the window shades
A semi-conscious sorrow sleeping in the bed I've made
That most unrestful bed, that most original of sins
And you'll say that's what I get when I let ambition win again
I'd hate to let you down, so I'll let the waters rise
And drown my dull reflection in the naïve expectation in your eyes
Back in a cast bit-part, back when I felt most free
I had a butcher's heart and no one thought they knew me
So before the regiment resumes, before the dreaded sun appears
My driver's waiting, so let's make one point crystal clear:
You see a flood-lit form, I see a shirt design
I'm no savior of yours, and you're no friend of mine
You're no friend of mine, you're no friend of mine
I'm no savior of yours, and you're no friend of mine
You see a flood-lit form, I see a shirt design
I'm no savior of yours, and you're no friend of mine
It's kind of hard to see myself in the reflection of people's eyes
Realizing what they see may not be even close to the image I see in myself
And I hate I might actually be more afraid
To let my own self down than anything else
I feel like the man in the story
Who saw a bear floating in the river and thought it was a fur coat
Twelve years ago I stood on the shore
Jumped in and grabbed the coat
And the river is rushing toward a waterfall
And my friend stood at the shore and shouted to let go of the coat and swim back to land
I let go of the coat but the coat won't let go of me
In any case please let me know if there's more I can give you
If nothing comes of it, then just know we are grateful
Tell Me How lyrics - Paramore
I can't call you a stranger
But I can't call you
I know you think that I erased you
You may hate me, but I can't hate you
And I won't replace you
Tell me how to feel about you now
Tell me how to feel about you now
Oh oh oh oh, let me know
Do I suffocate or let go?
Think I'm tired of getting over it
And just starting something new again
I'm getting sick of the beginnings
And always coming to your defenses
I guess it's good to get it off my chest
I guess I can't believe I haven't yet
You know I got my own convictions
And they're stronger than any addiction
But no one's winning
Tell me how to feel about you now
Tell me how to feel about you now
Oh oh oh oh, let me know
Do I suffocate or let go?
Tell me how to feel about you now
Tell me how to feel about you now
Oh oh oh oh, let me know
Do I suffocate or let go?
Keep me up with your silence
Take me down with your quiet
Of all the weapons you fight with
Your silence is the most violent
Tell me how to feel about you now
Tell me how to feel about you now
Oh oh oh oh, let me know
Do I suffocate or let go?
Tell me how to feel about you now
Tell me how to feel about you now
Oh oh oh oh, let me know
Do I suffocate or let go?
You don't have to tell me
If you ever think of me
I know you see me dancing
Wildly in the fog of your memory
You don't have to tell me
I can still believe
Brand New Eyes Tour Intro lyrics - Paramore
(Live)
So your father told you once
That you were his princess
You don't see the castle
And you cannot find your prince
And now you've grown a lot
And your dresses don't fit right
Your daddy's not a hero
He stole your chariot
So here you are in pieces
Trying to prove to us it's real
The softness of your smile
And the lies you want to feel
The scales beneath your skin
Are showing off today
There's evil in your heart
And it wants out to play
There's evil in your heart
And it wants out to play
There's evil in your heart
And I made a home here for me
Don't burn it down with your fantasies
And I made a home here for me
Don't burn it down with your fantasies
Evil In Your Heart lyrics - Paramore
So your father told you once
That you were his princess
But you won't see the castle
You cannot find your prince
And now you've grown a lot
And your dresses don't fit right
Your daddy's not a hero
He stole your chariot
So here you are in pieces
Trying to prove to us it's real
The softness of your smile
And the lies you want to feel
The scales beneath your skin
Are showing off today
There's evil in your heart
And it wants out to play
There's evil in your heart
And it wants out to play
There's evil in your heart
And I made a home here for me
Don't burn it down with your fantasies
And I made a home here for me
Don't burn it down with your fantasies
Grey Area (Note To Self) lyrics - Paramore
Good and also evil
Kind and also careful
Hurt and also healing
Empathy and also not my problem
Bad men and also lovely ones
Vulnerable and also fuck off
Vengeance and also forgiveness
Stay home and also see the world
Big smile and also depression
Distance and also closer than ever
Intimacy and also no one will ever truly know me
Straight and also spectrum
Newborn and also ancient wisdom
Neons and also neutrons
Hope and also dystopia
Acceptance and also rage
God and also nothing
Everywhere and also right here
True love and also loneliness
Believing and also seeing
Dreams of the future and also painstakingly present
Better and also enough
Enough
Enough
One, two, one, two, three, four
Passionfruit lyrics - Paramore
(originally by Drake)
Listen, seeing you got ritualistic
I'm cleansin' my soul of addiction for now
'Cause we're fallin' apart
A tension
Between us just like picket fences
Well, you got issues that I won't mention for now
'Cause we're fallin' apart
Passionate from miles away
Passive with the things you say
Passin' up on my old ways
I can't blame you, no, no
Passionate from miles away
Passive with the things you say
Passin' up on for my old ways
I can't blame you, no, no, no, no
Listen harder buildin' trust from a distance
Well, I think we should rule out commitment for now
'Cause we're fallin' apart
Leavin', you're just doing that to get even
Don't pick up the pieces, just leave it for now
They keep fallin' apart (Ah, ah)
Passionate from miles away
Passive with the things you say
Passin' up on my old ways
I can't blame you, no, no, no, no
Passionate from miles away
Passive with the things you say
Passin' up on my old ways
I can't blame you, no, no, no, no
I got my eyes on you
You act so different around me
I think there's something
I think there's something, baby
Oh Father (Outro) lyrics - Paramore
Oh father
Oh father
Oh father
Oh father! [or "My Jesus!"]
Father, well I'm ready
Won't you let it begin?
'Cause I'm here now
I want to dance in the mighty palm of your hand
