This Is Why lyrics - Paramore
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)
To yourself (To yourself)
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
Better have conviction
'Cause 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 (To yourself)
To yourself, yourself, yourself
To yourself (To yourself)
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
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
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
Ah, ah, this is why
I don't leave the house
You say the coast is clear
But oh, no, you won't catch me out
Oh, why?
This is why
The News lyrics - Paramore
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 front line
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 the news
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
Exploitative
Performative
Informative
And we don't know the half of it
Rhetorical
Deplorable
Historical
And all along we called it normal
Exploitative
Performative
Informative
And we don't know the half of it
Rhetorical
Deplorable
Historical
And all along we call it normal
All along we call it normal
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 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
C'est Comme Ça lyrics - Paramore
C'est comme ça, c'est comme ça, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
C'est comme ça, c'est comme ça, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
C'est comme ça, c'est comme ça, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
C'est comme ça, c'est comme ça, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
In a single year, I've aged one hundred
My social life, a chiropractic appointment
Sit still long enough 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, na, na, na, na
C'est comme ça, c'est comme ça, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
I'm off caffeine on doctor's orders
Said it was gonna 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
I know that regression is rarely rewarded
I still need a certain degree of disorder
C'est comme ça, c'est comme ça, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
C'est comme ça, c'est comme ça, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
C'est comme ça, c'est comme ça, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
C'est comme ça, c'est comme ça, na, na, na, na, 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?
C'est comme ça, c'est comme ça, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
C'est comme ça, c'est comme ça, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
C'est comme ça, c'est comme ça, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
C'est comme ça, c'est comme ça, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
C'est comme ça, c'est comme ça, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
C'est comme ça, c'est comme ça, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
C'est comme ça, c'est comme ça, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
C'est comme ça, c'est comme ça, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
Big Man, Little Dignity lyrics - Paramore
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, little dignity (Ooh-ooh)
Big man, little dignity (Ooh-ooh)
No offense but you
You got no integrity
Big man (Ooh)
Ooh, la-la-la little dignity
Well-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, little dignity (Ooh-ooh)
Big man, little dignity (Ooh-ooh)
No offense but you
You got no integrity
Big man (Ooh)
Ooh, la-la-la little dignity
Oh, I can't look away
I memorized all your lies
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 (Keep thinking)
The end is gonna be different
But you keep on winning
Big man, little dignity (Ooh-ooh)
Big man, little dignity (Ooh-ooh)
No offense, but you
You got no integrity
Big man (Ooh)
Ooh, la-la-la little dignity
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
