[Verse 1]
You say the sweetest things and I
Can't keep my heart from singing
Along to the sound of your song
My stupid feet keep moving
To this 4/4 beat, I'm in time with you
Whoa, to this 4/4 beat, I would die for you (die for you)

(Someone stop this)
I've gone too far to come back from here
But you don't have a clue
You don't know what you do to me

[Chorus]
Won't someone stop this song
So I won't sing along
Someone stop this song
So I won't sing

[Verse 2]
I never let love in
So I could keep my heart from hurting
The longer that I live with this idea, the more I sink in
To this 4/4 beat, I'm in time with you
Whoa, to this 4/4 beat, I would die for you (let's stop this song)

I've gone too far to come back from here
But you don't have a clue
You don't know what you do to me
I've come too far to get over you
And you don't have a clue
You don't know what you do to me

[Chorus]
Can't someone stop this song
So I won't sing along
Someone stop this song
So I won't sing

Your lovesick melody
Is gonna get the best of me tonight
But you won't get to me
If I don't sing

[Bridge]
It creeps in like a spider
Can't be killed, although I try and try to
Well, don't you see I'm falling?
Don't want to love you, but I do

[Chorus]
(Lovesick melody) Can someone stop this song?
So I won't sing along
(Lovesick melody) Can someone stop this song?
So I won't sing

Your lovesick melody
Is gonna get the best of me tonight
But you won't get to me
No you won't get to me
'Cause I won't sing

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.
