Lyrics - Decoy - Paramore

Close your eyes and make believe
This is where you want to be
Forgetting all the memories,
Try to forget love cause love's forgotten me
Well hey, hey baby, it's never too late pretty soon you won't remember a thing
And I'll be distant, the stars reminiscing
Your heart's been wasted on me

oh......oh...oh
You've never been so used as I'm using you, abusing you
My little decoy
Don't look so blue, you should've seen right through
I'm using you, my little decoy
My little decoy

Living life inside a dream
Time is changing everything
Forgetting all the memories
And I'm forced into you just cause you're into me
Well hey, hey baby, it's never too late
When I'm gone you won't remember a thing
But I can't stay and you know I won't wait
I was gone from the very first day

You've never been so used as I'm using you, abusing you
My little decoy
Don't look so blue, you should've seen right through
I'm using you, my little decoy

Oh, oh.
I'm not sorry at all
(not sorry at all, not sorry. no.)
I won't be sorry at all
(not sorry at all, not sorry. no.)
I'd do it over again

Don't look so blue, my little decoy
You should've seen right through, my little decoy
You've never been so used, my little decoy
And so I'm using you, my little decoy

Lyrics - Adore - Paramore

I don't mean to run
But Everytime You come Around
I Feel more alive, than ever
And I guess it's too much
Maybe we're too young
And I don't even know whats real
But I Know I've never..

Wanted anything so bad
I've never wanted anyone so bad

If I let you love me
Be the one adored
Would you go all the way
Be the one I'm looking for
If i let you love me (If i Say)
Be the one adored (Its O.k)
Would you go all the way (You can Stay)
Be the One I'm looking for

Help me come back down
From high above the clouds
You know im suffocating, But i blame this town
Why do I deny
The things that burn inside,
Down deep I'm barley breathing
But you just see a smile

And I don't wanna let this go
Really i just want to know

If I let you love me
Be the one adored
Would you go all the way
Be the one I'm looking for
If i let you love me (If i Say)
Be the one adored (Its O.k)
Would you go all the way (You can Stay)
Be the One I'm looking for

If I let you love me
Be the one adored
Would you go all the way
Be the one I'm looking for (x2)

If i let you love me (If i Say)
See the one adored (Its O.k)
Would you go all the way (You can Stay)
Be the One I'm looking for

Lyrics - Feeling Sorry - Paramore - Brand New Eyes

We still live in the same town, well don't we
but i don't see you around anymore
i go to all the same places, not even a trace of you
your days are numbered at 24

And i'm getting bored waiting around for you
we're not getting any younger
and i won't look back cause there's no use
it's time to move forward

I feel no sympathy, you live inside a cave
you barely get by, the rest of us are trying
no need to apologize, i've got no time for feeling sorry

I try not to think of what might happen
when your reality it finally cuts through
well as for me i got out and i'm on the road
the worst part is that this could be you

And you know it too
you can't run from your shame
you're not getting any younger
and time keeps passing by
but you wave it away
it's time to roll over

Ifeel no sympathy, you live inside a cave
you barely get by, the rest of us are trying
no need to apologize, i've got no time for feeling sorry

All the best lies
they are told with fingers tied
so cross them tight, won't you promise me tonight
if it's the last thing you do you'll get out

Ifeel no sympathy, you live inside a cave
you barely get by, the rest of us are trying
no need to apologize, i've got no time for feeling sorry

Lyrics - Looking Up - Paramore - Brand New Eyes

Things are looking up, oh finally
I thought I'd see the day when you smile at me
We always pull through oh when we try
I'm always wrong but you're never
Oh, you're never right

Honestly, can you believe
We crossed the world while it's asleep
I'd never trade it in
'Cause I've always wanted this
And it's not a dream anymore, no
It's not a dream anymore
It's worth fighting for

Could given up so easily
I was a few cheap shots from the end of me
Taken for granted most everything
That I would have died for just yesterday
Just yesterday

Honestly, can you believe
We crossed the world while it's asleep
I'd never trade it in
'Cause I've always wanted this
And it's not a dream anymore, no
It's not a dream anymore
It's worth fighting for

God knows the the world doesn't need another band
Whoa-oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh
But what a waste it would have been
Whoa-oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh
I can't believe we almost hung it up
Whoa-oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh
We're just getting started
Whoa-oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh

Honestly, can you believe
We crossed the world while it's asleep
I'd never trade it in
'Cause I've always wanted this
And it's not a dream anymore, no
It's not a dream anymore, no
It's not a dream anymore
It's worth fighting for

I can't believe we almost hung it up!
We're just getting started!
I can't believe we almost hung it up!
We're just getting started!
We're just getting started

Lyrics - Where the Lines Overlap - Paramore - Brand New Eyes

Give me attention
I need it now
Too much distance
To measure it out
Out loud
Tracing patterns across a personal map
And making pictures where the lines overlap,
where the lines overlap

No one is as lucky as us
We’re not at the end but, oh we already won
Oh No one
Is as lucky as us
Is as lucky as I

Call me over
Tell me how you got so far
Never making a single sound
I’m not used to it but I can learn
There's nothing to it
I’ve never been happier
Never been happier

No one is as lucky as us
We’re not at the end but oh we already won
Oh no one
Is as lucky as us
Is as lucky as I

Now I’ve got a feeling if I sang this loud enough you would sing it back to me
I’ve got a feeling if I sang this loud enough you would sing it back to me
I’ve got a feeling,
I’ve got a feeling that you would sing it back to me
that you would sing it back to me

No one is as lucky as us
We’re not at the end but oh we already won
Oh no one
Is as lucky as us
Is as lucky as I
Is as lucky as us

Lyrics - Misguided Ghosts - Paramore - Brand New Eyes

1, 2, 3, 4

I'm going away for awhile
But I'll be back, don't try and follow me
Cause I'll return as soon as possible
See I'm tryna find my place
But it might not be here where I feel safe
We all learn to make mistakes

And run
From them, from them
With no direction
We'll run from them, from them
With no conviction

Cause I'm just one of those ghosts
Travelling endlessly
Don't need no roads
In fact they follow me

And we just go in circles

Well now I'm told that this is life
And pain is just a simple compromise
So we can get what we want out of it
Would someone care to classify,
Of broken hearts and twisted minds
So i can find someone to rely on

And run
To them, to them
Full speed ahead
Oh you are not useless
We are just

Misguided ghosts
Travelling endlessly
The ones we trusted the most
Pushed us far away
And there's no one road
We should not be the same
But i'm just a ghost
And still they echo me

They echo me in circles

Lyrics - Ignorance - Paramore - Brand New Eyes

if i’m a bad person, you don’t like me
i guess i’ll make my own way
it’s a circle
a mean cycle
i can’t excite you anymore
where’s your gavel? your jury?
what’s my offense this time?
you’re not a judge but if you’re gonna judge me
well sentence me to another life.

don’t wanna hear your sad songs
i don’t wanna feel your pain
when you swear it’s all my fault
cause you know we’re not the same,
we’re not the same
oh we’re not the same
ya, the friends who stuck together
we wrote our names in blood
but i guess you can’t accept that the change is good (hey)
it’s good (hey)
it's good

you treat me just like another stranger
well it’s nice to meet you sir
i guess i’ll go
i best be on my way out (2x)

ignorance is your new best friend (2x)

this is the best thing that could’ve happened
any longer and i wouldn’t have made it
it’s not a war no, it’s not a rapture
i’m just a person but you can’t take it
the same tricks that, that once fooled me
they won’t get you anywhere
i’m not the same kid from your memory
well now i can fend for myself

don’t wanna hear your sad songs
i don’t wanna feel your pain
when you swear it’s all my fault
cause you know we’re not the same,
we’re not the same
oh we’re not the same
ya, we used to stick together
we wrote our names in blood
but i guess you can’t accept that the change is good (hey)
it’s good (hey)
it's good

you treat me just like another stranger
well it’s nice to meet you sir
i guess i’ll go
i best be on my way out

ignorance is your new best friend (4x)

you treat me just like another stranger
well it’s nice to meet you sir
i guess i’ll go
i best be on my way out

Lyrics - Playing God - Paramore - Brand New Eyes

[Verse]
Cant make my own decisions
Or make any with precision
Well maybe you should tie me up
So I don't go where you don't want me

You say that I've been changing
That I'm not just simply aging
Yeah, how can that be logical
Just keep cramming ideas down my throat

[Pre-chorus]
Whoa

[Chorus]
You don't have to believe me
But the way I, way I see it
Next time you point a finger
I might have to bend it back
Or break it, break it off
Next time you point a finger
I'll point you to the mirror

[Verse]
If God's the game that you're playing
Well we must get more acquainted
Because it has to be so lonely
To be the only one that's holy

It's just my humble opinion
But it's one that I believe in
You don't deserve a point of view
If the only thing you see is you

[Pre-chorus]
Whoa

[Chorus]
You don't have to believe me
But the way I, way I see it
Next time you point a finger
I might have to bend it back
Or break it, break it off
Next time you point a finger
I'll point you to the mirror

[Hook]
This is the last second chance
(I'll point you to the mirror)
I'm half as good as it gets
(I'll point you to the mirror)
I'm on both sides of the fence
(I'll point you to the mirror)
Without a hint of regret
I'll hold you to it

[Chorus]
I know you don't believe me
But the way I, way I see it
Next time you point a finger
I might have to bend it back
Or break it, break it off
Next time you point a finger
I'll point you to the mirror

I know you wont believe me
But the way I, way I see it
Next time you point a finger
I might have to bend it back
Or break it, break it off
Next time you point a finger
I'll point you to the mirror

Lyrics - The Only Exception - Paramore - Brand New Eyes

When I was younger I saw my daddy
cry and curse at the wind.
He broke his own heart and
I watched as he tried to re-assemble it.
And my mamma swore she would
never let herself forget.
And that was the day that I promised
I'd never sing of love if does not exist.
But darling..

You are the only exception (x4)

Maybe I know somewhere deep in
my soul that love never lasts.
And we've got to find other ways
to make it alone or keep a straight face.
And I've always lived like this
keeping a comfortable, distance.
And up until now I swore to myself
that I'm content with loneliness,
'cause none of it was ever worth the risk.

But you are the only exception (x4)

I've got a tight grip on reality,
but I can't let go of whats part of me here.
I know you're leaving in the morning, when you wake up,
leave me with some kind of proof it's not a dream.

Whooa..

You are the only exception (x8)
And I'm on my way to believing.. (x2)

Lyrics - Turn It Off - Paramore - Brand New Eyes

I scraped my knees when I was praying
And found a demon in my safest haven, seems like
It's getting harder to believe in anything
And just to get lost in all my selfish thoughts

I wanna know what it'd be like
To find perfection in my pride
To see nothing in the light
I'll turn it off
In all my spite
In all my spite
I'll turn it off

(Chorus)
And the worst part is
Before it gets any better
We're headed for a cliff
And in the free fall I will realize
I'm better off when I hit the bottom

The tragedy, it seems unending
I'm watching everyone I looked up to break and bending
We're taking short cuts and false solutions
Just to come out the hero
Well I can see behind the curtain (I can see, yeah yeah)
The wheels are cranking, turning, it's all wrong the way we're working
Towards a goal, that's non-existent
It's not existent, but we just keep believing

(Chorus)
And the worst part is
Before it gets any better
We're headed for a cliff
And in the free fall I will realize
I'm better off when I hit the bottom

(bridge)
I wanna know what it'd be like
To find perfection in my pride
To see nothing in the light
I'll turn it off
In all my spite
In all my spite
I'll turn it off
Just turn it off

Again
Again

(Chorus)
And the worst part is
Before it gets any better
We're headed for a cliff
And in the free fall I will realize
I'm better off when I hit the bottom
And the worst part is
Before it gets any better
We're headed for a cliff
And in the free fall I will realize
I'm better off when I hit the bottom

Lyrics - Careful - Paramore - Brand New Eyes

I settle down
A twisted up frown
Disguised as a smile well
You would have never known
I had it all but not what I wanted
'Cause hope for me was a place uncharted
And overgrown

You'd make your way in
I'd resist you just like this
You can't tell me to feel
The truth never set me free
So I did it myself

You can't be too careful anymore
When all that is waiting for you won't come any closer
You've got to reach out a little more
More
More
More
More

Open your eyes like I open mine
It's only the real world
A life you will never know
Shifting your weight to throw off the pain
Well you can ignore it
But only for so long

You look like I did
You resist me just like this
You can't tell me to heal
And it hurts remembering how it felt to shut down

Can't be too careful anymore
When all that is waiting for you won't come any closer
You've got to reach out a little more
More
More
More
More

The truth never set me free
The truth never set me free
The truth never set me free
So I'll do it myself

You can't be too careful anymore
When all that is waiting for you won't come any closer
You've got to reach out

Can't be too careful anymore
When all that is waiting for you won't come any closer
You've got to reach out more
More
More
More
More

Lyrics - Brick By Boring Brick - Paramore - Brand New Eyes

She lives in a fairy tale
Somewhere too far for us to find
Forgotten the taste and smell
Of the world that she's left behind
It's all about the exposure the lens I told her
The angles were all wrong now
She's ripping wings off of butterflies

Keep your feet on the ground
When your head's in the clouds

Well go get your shovel
And we'll dig a deep hole
To bury the castle, bury the castle x2
Ba da ba da ba

So one day he found her crying
Coiled up on the dirty ground
Her prince finally came to save her
And the rest you can figure out
But it was a trick
And the clock struck 12
Well make sure to build your house brick by boring brick
or the wolves gonna blow it down

Keep your feet on the ground
When your head's in the clouds

Well go get your shovel
And we'll dig a deep hole
To bury the castle, bury the castle x2

woah woah

Well you built up a world of magic
Because your real life is tragic
Yeah you built up a world of magic
If it's not real
You can't hold it in your hand
You can't feel it with your heart
And I won't believe it
But if it's true
You can see it with your eyes
Even in the dark
And that's where I want to be, yeah

Go get your shovel
We'll dig a deep hole
To bury the castle, bury the castle x2
Ba da ba da ba...
