[Verse 1]
So this is how it goes
Well I, I would have never known
And if it ends today
Well, I'll still say that you shine brighter than anyone

[Chorus]
Now I think we're taking this too far, don't you know
That it's not this hard? Well, it's not this hard
But if you take what's yours, and I take mine, must we go there?
Please not this time, no, not this time

[Verse 2]
Well this is not your fault
But if I'm without you, then I will feel so small
And if you have to go
We'll always know that you shine brighter than anyone does

[Chorus]
Now I think we're taking this too far, don't you know
That it's not this hard? Well, it's not this hard
But if you take what's yours, and I take mine, must we go there?
Please not this time, no, not this time

[Bridge]
If you run away now
Will you come back around?
And if you ran away, I'd still wave goodbye
Watching you shine bright

[Chorus]
Now I think we're taking this too far, don't you know
That it's not this hard? Well, it's not this hard
But if you take what's yours, and I take mine, must we go there?
Please not this time, no, not this time

[Outro]
I'll wave goodbye watching you shine bright (You shine bright)
I'll wave goodbye tonight (You shine bright)

Paramore

Around the year 2004, in the small town of Franklin, Tennessee, one of the most iconic and influential female-fronted rock bands formed. Paramore, a name that derives from the word paramour meaning secret lover, is a Grammy Award winning pop-punk/pop-rock band that currently consists of lead vocalist Hayley Williams, guitarist Taylor York and drummer Zac Farro. They came up in the pop-punk scene but have since developed a more radio-friendly pop rock sound.

As recognizable as the band’s singer (Hayley Williams) is, the group actually started without her. Josh Farro and Zac Farro initially jammed with Jeremy Davis after school, but after deciding they needed a vocalist, they called Williams and the band was formed. The group eventually added another member, Hayley’s neighbor Jason Bynum, as rhythm guitarist.

Their first album, All We Know Is Falling, was released in 2005 when frontwoman Hayley Williams was only 16 years old. It reached number 8 on the UK Rock Chart, but regardless of the record’s success, it showed problems between band members as Jeremy Davis left the band shortly before its release.
