Paramore

[Verse 1]
Tell me where our time went
And if it was time well spent
Just don't let me fall asleep
Feeling empty again

[Pre-Chorus]
’Cause I fear I might break
And I fear I can't take it
Tonight I'll lie awake
Feeling empty

[Chorus]
I can feel the pressure
It’s getting closer now
We're better off without you
I can feel the pressure
It's getting closer now
We're better off without you

[Verse 2]
Now that I'm losing hope
And there's nothing else to show
For all of the days that we spent
Carried away from home

[Pre-Chorus]
Some things I'll never know
And I had to let them go
I'm sitting all alone
Feeling empty

[Chorus]
I can feel the pressure
It’s getting closer now
We’re better off without you
I can feel the pressure
It's getting closer now
We’re better off without you
(Without you)

[Bridge]
Some things I'll never know
And I had to let them go
Some things I'll never know
And I had to let them go
But I'm sitting all alone
Feeling empty

[Chorus]
I can feel the pressure
It’s getting closer now
We're better off without you
Feel the pressure
It's getting closer now
You're better off without me

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.
