[Verse 1]
I settled 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

[Pre-Chorus]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
Open your eyes like I opened 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

[Pre-Chorus]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Bridge]
The truth never set me free
The truth never set me free
The truth never set me free
So, I'll do it myself

[Chorus]
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

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.
