[Verse 1]
I feel happy, I feel sad, I feel like running through the walls
I'm overjoyed, I'm undecided, I don't know who I am
Well maybe I'm not perfect, at least I'm working on it
22 is like the worst idea that I've ever had
It's too much pain, it's too much freedom, what should I do with this?
It's not the way you plan it, it's how you make it happen
Yeah, it's how you make it happen

[Chorus]
It's such a cold, cold world (hello cold world)
And I can't get out, so I'll just make the best with everything I'll never have
It's such a cold, cold world (hello cold world)
And it's got me down, but I'll get right back up, as long as its spins around
Hello cold world
Whoa oh oh
Whoa oh oh

[Verse 2]
Girls and boys keep lining up to see if they can measure up
They look good, and they feel wild, but it will never be enough
You say you're really hurting, at least you're feeling something
We can hope and we can pray that everything will work out fine
But you can't just stay down on your knees, the revolution is outside
You wanna make a difference, get out and go begin it
Whoa, get out and go begin it

[Chorus 2]
It's such a cold, cold world (hello cold world)
And I can't get out, so I'll just make the best of everything I'll never have
It's such a cold, cold world (hello cold world)
And It's got me down, but I'll get right back up, as long as its spins around
Hello cold world...

[Bridge]
Oh oh
(Oh oh) Don't need my eyes open... Wide
(Uh oh) I just wanna feel something

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus 3]
Such a cold, cold world (hello cold world)
And I can't get out, so I'll just make the best of everything I'll never have
It's such a cold, cold world (hello cold world)
And It's got me down, but I'll get right back up, as long as its spins around (spins around)
Whoa oh oh
Whoa oh oh (Hello cold world)
Whoa oh oh
Whoa oh oh (Hello cold world)

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.
