Paramore

Adore

From The B-Sides2008

Written by Hayley Williams, Nick Trevisick, Roger Alan Nichols

Lyrics

Adore

[Verse 1]

I don't mean to run

But every time you come around, I feel more alive

Than ever

And I guess it's too much

Maybe we're too young and I don't even know what's real

But I know

[Pre-Chorus]

I've never wanted anything so bad

I've never wanted anyone so bad

[Chorus]

If I let you love me, be the one adored

Would you go all the way? Be the one I'm looking for?

If I let you love me, be the one adored (If I say it's okay)

Would you go all the way? Be the one I'm looking for? (Stay)

[Verse 2]

Help me come back down

From high above the clouds, you know I'm suffocating

But I blame this town

Why do I deny

The things that burn inside? Down deep, I'm barely breathing

But you just see a smile

[Pre-Chorus]

And I don't wanna let this go

Really, I just want to know

Paramore on Dork

How Hayley Williams built a solo live world beyond Paramore

Across debut-packed sets, carefully chosen guests and a Roundhouse show built around release rather than nostalgia, Hayley Williams gave her solo material its own room to breathe.

Hayley Williams has shared a new video for 'Glum', co-directed with Paramore’s Zac Farro

The tracks mark her first releases as a fully independent artist.

Paramore have postponed this week's San Francisco, Seattle, Portland and Salt Lake City shows

It's due to illness within the touring party.

Inside Paramore's London 'This Is Why' listening party

When Official Paramore Expert Eleanor Osada said she was heading to the band's London fan listening party we snapped her hand off at the offer of a first-hand account.
