[Verse 1]
No sir
Well, I don't wanna be the blame, not anymore
It's your turn
So take a seat, we're settling the final score
(And why do we like to hurt so much?)
I can't decide
'Cause you have made it harder just to go on
And why? All the possibilities
Well, I was wrong

[Chorus 1]
That's what you get when you let your heart win (woah)
That's what you get when you let your heart win (woah)
I drowned out all my sense with the sound of its beating
And that's what you get when you let your heart win (woah)

[Announcement]
Ladies and gentlemen, Taylor York!

[Verse 2]
I wonder
How am I supposed to feel when you're not here?
Cause I burned every bridge I ever built when you were here
I still try holding onto silly things, I never learn
Oh, why?
All the possibilities
I'm sure you've heard

[Chorus 1]
That's what you get when you let your heart win (woah)
That's what you get when you let your heart win (woah)
I drowned out all my sense with the sound of its beating (beating)
And that's what you get when you let your heart win (woah)

[Bridge]
Now pain, make your way to me, to me
And I'll always be just so inviting
Well if I, I ever start to think straight
This heart will start a riot in me
Let's start, start, (hey!)

[Breakdown]
Why do we like to hurt so much?
Oh, why do we like to hurt so much?
Chicago!
(That's what you get when you let your heart win, woah)

[Chorus 2]
That's what you get when you let your heart win (woah)
That's what you get when you let your heart win (woah)
Now, I can't trust myself with anything but this
And that's what you get when you let your heart win (woah)

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.
