Okay. This is pretty self-explanatory. You post your favorite song lyrics. Any band. Put the band, the song, and the lyric. It doesn't necessarily have to be Paramore. And it can be however many you want to put.

I'll start.

 

The world's got a funny way of turning 'round on you

When a friend tries to stab you right in the face - False Pretense - The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus

The verse in my sig, ahhhh i love it soooo much....

 

'We're Glistening Like Silver Spoons

Beneath The Summer Night

Oh Can You Smell The Subtle Hint Of Frost

As The Flowers Start To Cry

The Autumn Winds Are Bringing Graves

To All The Emerald Trees

They're So Beautiful In Their Dismay

The Colors Slowly Bleed'

 

Yeah that one haha

Oh it's from Martini Kiss by Senses Fail

Then again i love pretty much all Senses Fail lyrics

Because they all have a story behind them :]

My Chemical Romance- I'm Not Okay (I Promise)

 

Well if you wanted honesty, that's all you had to say.

I never want to let you down or have you go, it's better off this way.

For all the dirty looks, the photographs your boyfriend took,

Remember when you broke your foot from jumping out the second floor?

 

I'm not okay

I'm not okay

I'm not okay

You wear me out

 

What will it take to show you that it's not the life it seems?

(I'm not okay)

I've told you time and time again you sing the words but don't know what it means

(I'm not okay)

To be a joke and look, another line without a hook

I held you close as we both shook for the last time take a good hard look!

 

I'm not okay

I'm not okay

I'm not okay

You wear me out

 

Forget about the dirty looks

The photographs your boyfriend took

You said you read me like a book, but the pages all are torn and frayed

 

I'm okay

I'm okay!

I'm okay, now

(I'm okay, now)

 

But you really need to listen to me

Because I'm telling you the truth

I mean this, I'm okay!

(Trust Me)

 

I'm not okay

I'm not okay

Well, I'm not okay

I'm not o-fucking-kay

I'm not okay

I'm not okay

 

Funeral For A Friend- Recovery

 

Scared to open up these eyes,

To see just what's inside,

This tree is dead and cold,

This house is not a home,

Help me now I'm dying here alone...

 

This is not a new game,

So don't think that you know...

 

Casually, I confide,

Awake and paralysed,

Forever in one word,

Forever is the longest time,

It's the only cure, I'm not sure I'll survive;

 

This is not a new game,

So don't think that you know...

 

Can't you see these blood shot eyes?

Can you see,

That my strength is failing,

And I can't go on this way,

And this hearts not beating,

It just doesn't seem the same,

And my strength is failing,

And I can't go on this way,

Can't go on this way...

 

Promise me...

Promise me...

Promise me... You will not ever leave (again)

Promise me... You will not ever leave

Promise me... You will not ever leave

Promise me... You will not ever leave

 

You will not ever leave...

 

And my strength is failing,

And I can't go on this way,

And this hearts not beating,

It just doesn't seem the same,

It doesn't seem the same,

It just doesnt seem the same...

There are so many more than just these, but its what i've been listening to recently really. So from the top of my head, here they are <3

 

Alexisonfire

Sometimes love isn't about how much someone suits you

But how much you're willing to change to suit them.

----

Dressed to kill you look so right

I am drunk with lust tonight

Your wounds are opening wide

And they might be just my size

----

This is a .44 caliber love letter straight from my heart.

----

Write your name on my chest in karosene, spark a match and you wont be cold again.

----

Take this blood from my veins and paint me a masterpiece of a parade. Kill their leader and watch his family die. The last man standing is a joke. In spite of the glorious headshots and 8x10's. The name does not live on.

----

I, i, guess, the only thing cheap to you is your friends

You can always make new friends

But when you sell them out will they be worth as much?

 

Paramore

This heart (please dont go now)

It beats (please dont fade away)

Beats for only you (please dont go now)

My heart is yours (please dont fade away)

----

Everybody sing like its the last song you will ever sing

Everybody live like its the last day you will ever see

----

 

 

All Time Low

I've never told a lie

And that makes me a liar

I've never made a bet

But we gamble with desire

I've never lit a match

With intent to start a fire

But recently the flames are getting out of control

Call me a name

Kill me with words

Forget about me

Its what i deserve

 

Senses Fail

An angel

On his two knees

Arms stretched

Towards a red sea

Of violence

And a sultry tounge

A scenic

View of carnage

Caused by

The sword in his hands

The beauty

Resonates in birth

----

I love you so damn much

I'll even start to pray

I'll put my faith in all your bullshit

If it means you'll stay

----

You ripped my heart out

You tore my eyes out

Now you're gonna pay

I'll stab you one time

I'll eat your heart out

So you feel my pain

Dont you know that

I always see you

In all of my dreams

  • 2 weeks later...

probably all of "Then Came To Kill" by The Chariot

 

Fight priest, fight, take pictures. Make alright, what you have lost and give pride back to the ground. You have got all you want, but all you have got is a wreck. Everyone in this whole wide world wake up and panic. Fortune wears a red dress but her bones smell of death. They all stare but no one seeks. They all claim but no one speaks. They all hear what they want. Panic preacher.

Beware of these sheep, in the costume of wolves, for lies, they come in pairs of two and we only die twice but for such a very long time. And just because you kiss a lot don't mean your in love. And just because you have begun don't mean you have won. I was a second son, not born but just once, and all my friends be gray. The fade out. They all close the door because no one speaks out loud. Take my heart, prophet.
