| Paramore – Tell Me How Lyrics | 4 years ago |
|
To me, it’s about a girl who has been ghosted by a guy who she thought was perfect for her. Maybe he wasn’t ready for the intensity and he knows he’s probably broke her heart… but all he would have to do is tell her to feel like not giving up… but he’s stubborn… I can't call you a stranger But I can't call you Because they aren’t strangers, but she can’t call him, he won’t answer. I know you think that I erased you You may hate me but I can't hate you And I won't replace you He ghosted her, but that doesn’t diminish what they had. Tell me how to feel about you now Tell me how to feel about you now Oh, let me know Do I suffocate or let go? She wants to know if he wants her to love him, all he has to do is tell her, and she will. Think I'm tired of getting over it Just starting something new again I'm getting sick of the beginnings And always coming to your defenses She is tired of looking for love, when she knows that she found it. She doesn’t want another beginning, she’s defending his silence knowing the love was real. I guess it's good to get it off my chest I guess I can't believe I haven't yet You know I got my own convictions And they're stronger than any addiction But no one's winning She’s trying to tell him that it’s worth the effort… but with his silence, no one’s winning. You keep me up with your silence Take me down with your quiet Of all the weapons you fight with Your silence is the most violent She can’t sleep because she can’t stop thinking of him, and his silence hurts the worst. You don't have to tell me If you ever think of me I know you say you're busy Wildly, in the fog of your memory You don't have to tell me, I can still believe She’s okay with it… she knows there is no resolution, he doesn’t have to say anything, she knows, and regardless, she still believes. |
