terbentuk nya paramore
Paramore dibentuk pada tahun 2004 di Franklin, Tennessee, Amerika Serikat oleh vokalis Hayley Williams, gitaris Josh Farro dan drummer Zac Farro, serta bassist Jason Clarke. Namun pada saat mereka akan masuk ke dunia major label, pihak label kurang setuju dengan keberadaan Taylor York dan Jason Clarke. Kemudian Hayley membawa bassist Jeremy Davis dan gitaris Jason Bynum untuk menggantikan mereka, dan pihak label pun setuju. Paramore lalu menandatangani kontrak dengan Fueled by Ramen pada April 2005.[4][5] Nama Paramore sendiri dikabarkan diambil dari nama ibu dari bassist pertama mereka.[6]2005-2006: All We Know Is Falling
Album pertama mereka berjudul All We Know Is Falling dan dirilis pada Juli 2005. Dari album ini mereka merilis 3 single, yaitu: Pressure, Emergency, dan All We Know. Meskipun begitu, album ini dibuat tanpa kehadiran bassist Jeremy Davis. Hal tersebut dikarenakan tepat sebelum proses rekaman, Jeremy memutuskan untuk keluar dari band. Oleh karena itu, album ini dirilis dengan hanya 4 personel yang dikreditkan. Sebenarnya kepergian Jeremy memberikan dampak yang besar pada Paramore saat itu, dan hal tersebut menginspirasi Hayley untuk menulis lagu All We Know, dimana di dalam lagu tersebut berisi baris "All We Know Is Falling". Di album ini juga terdapat lagu Conspiracy, yang merupakan lagu pertama yang ditulis bersama oleh semua personel. Pada lagu "My Heart" terdapat satu-satunya scream dari Josh Farro sebagai backing vocal.Selama tour AWKIF, Paramore merekrut John Hembree sebagai bassist untuk tour. Walapun begitu, tidak lama kemudian Jeremy kembali bergabung dengan Paramore sebagai bassist tentunya. Ketika Paramore merilis Emergency sebagai single kedua dari album ini, Jason Bynum sudah tidak lagi berada di Paramore dan digantikan oleh Hunter Lamb. Pada tahun 2007, Hunter Lamb juga memutuskan untuk keluar dari band untuk menikah.
2007-2008: Riot! dan proyek lain
Dengan beranggotakan 4 orang, Paramore merilis album kedua mereka yaitu Riot! pada Juni 2007. Dari album ini mereka merilis 4 single: Misery Business, Hallelujah, Crushcrushcrush, dan That's What You Get. Single pertama mereka, Missery Business, menerima kritik positif dan menjadi hits secara instant, membuat nama Paramore semakin melejit.Selama tour Riot!, mereka merekrut teman lama mereka, Taylor York, sebagai gitaris tambahan untuk tour.[10] Pada Februari 2008, Paramore membatalkan 6 konser mereka di Eropa untuk menyelesaikan permasalahan internal yang menyelimuti band. Dibawah semua tekanan itu mereka merilis single That's What You Get pada Maret 2008. Namun, setelah sepertinya menyelesaikan permasalahan internal band, pada Mei 2008 Hayley menyatakan bahwa Paramore akan berada pada tour The Final Riot!. Di tour ini, mereka merekam konser mereka untuk membuat sebuah album live bernama "The Final Riot!" yang dirilis pada November 2008.
Pada Oktober 2008 Paramore merilis sebuah single berjudul Decode yang diambil dari OST. film Twilight Saga. Mereka berkontribusi memberikan 2 lagu pada OST tersebut yaitu Decode dan I Caught Myself.[11] Pada bulan November, video klip dari Decode memulai pemutaran perdana. "Decode" dibawah nama film Twilight membawa Paramore semakin terkenal, terutama di kalangan remaja putri penggemar film drama. "Decode" menjadi nominasi di MTV movie awards untuk kategori "Best Soundtrack".

paramore>> the only exception <<
When I was younger, I saw my daddy cry
And curse at the wind
He broke his own heart and I watched
As he tried to reassemble it
And my momma swore that
She would never let herself forget
And that was the day that I promised
I’d never sing of love if it does not exist
But darling, you are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
Maybe I know, somewhere deep in my soul
That love never lasts
And we’ve got to find other ways to make it alone
Or keep a straight face
And I’ve always lived like this
Keeping a comfortable distance
And up until now I had sworn to myself that I’m content with loneliness
Because none of it was ever worth the risk
But you are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
I’ve got a tight grip on reality
But I can’t let go of what’s in front of me here
I know you’re leaving in the morning when you wake up
Leave me with some kind of proof, it’s not a dream, oh
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
And I’m on my way to believing
Oh, and I’m on my way to believing
PARAMORE>> MISERY BUSSINESS<<
I’m in the business of misery,
Let’s take it from the top.
She’s got a body like an hourglass, it’s ticking like a clock.
It’s a matter of time before we all run out,
When I thought he was mine she caught him by the mouth.
I waited eight long months,
She finally set him free.
I told him I couldn’t lie he was the only one for me.
Two weeks and we caught on fire,
She’s got it out for me,
But I wear the biggest smile.
Whoa, I never meant to brag
But I got him where I want him now.
Whoa, it was never my intention to brag
To steal it all away from you now.
But God does it feel so good,
Cause I got him where I want him now.
And if you could then you know you would.
It’s gonna just feel so…
It just feels so good.
Second chances they don’t ever matter, people never change.
Once a whore you’re nothing more, I’m sorry, that’ll never change.
And about forgiveness, we’re both supposed to have exchanged.
I’m sorry honey, but I passed it up, now look this way.
Well there’s a million other girls who do it just like you.
Looking as innocent as possible to get to who,
They want and what they like it’s easy if you do it right.
Well I refuse, I refuse, I refuse!
Whoa, I never meant to brag
But I got him where I want him now.
Whoa, it was never my intention to brag
To steal it all away from you now.
But God does it feel so good,
Cause I got him where I want him right now.
And if you could then you know you would.
It’s gonna just feel so…
It just feels so good.
I watched his wildest dreams come true
Not one of them involving you
Just watch my wildest dreams come true
Not one of them involving…
Whoa, I never meant to brag
But I got him where I want him now.
Whoa, I never meant to brag
But I got him where I want him now.
Whoa, it was never my intention to brag
To steal it all away from you now.
But God does it feel so good,
Cause I got him where I want him now.
And if you could then you know you would.
It’s gonna just feel so…
It just feels so good.
PARAMORE >> IGNORANCE <<
If I’m a bad person, you don’t like me
Well I guess I’ll make my own way
It’s a circle
A mean cycle
I can’t excite you anymore
Where’s your gavel? Your jury?
What’s my offense this time?
You’re not a judge but if you’re gonna judge me
Well sentence me to another life
Don’t wanna hear your sad songs
I don’t wanna feel your pain
When you swear it’s all my fault
Cause you know we’re not the same (no)
We’re not the same (no)

Any longer and I wouldn’t have made it
It’s not a war no, it’s not a rapture

The same tricks that, that once fooled me
They won’t get you anywhere
I’m not the same kid from your memory
Well now I can fend for myself
Don’t wanna hear your sad songs
I don’t wanna feel your pain
When you swear it’s all my fault
Cause you know we’re not the same (no)
We’re not the same (no)
Oh we’re not the same
