Lyrics

Paramore — Playing God

I can't make my own decisions

Or make any with precision

Well, maybe you should tie me up

So I don't go where you don't want me

You say that I've been changing

That I'm not just simply aging

Yeah, how could that be logical?

Just keep on cramming ideas down my throat
