Emergency- Paramore

Posted on February 2nd, 2008 in Paramore, Song of the Day by Tatertot

ParamoreI love Paramore! They have an awesome song called “Emergency”. It is on their first album called All We Know is Falling that came out in 2005. This song sounds so familiar. Like another song I have heard, well just the beginning when she says “I think we have an emergency, I think we have an emergency” and how Hayley Williams says it. It sounds like another song. So far I haven’t figured out what it reminds me of. The video first freaked me out because they look scary and stuff. But the song is called “Emergency”. I like lyrics “I’ve seen love die way too many times. When it deserved to be alive.” it is like poetry right there. Plus of course it has great rhythm and it is up beat. One of my favorites.
Love,
Tayler!

Here are the lyrics for “Emergency”:

I think we have an emergency
I think we have an emergency

If you thought I’d leave, then you were wrong
Cause I won’t stop holding on

So are you listening?
So are you watching me?

If you thought I’d leave, then you were wrong
Cause I won’t stop holding on.

This is an emergency
So are you listening?

And I can’t pretend that I don’t see this

It’s really not your fault
That no one cares to talk about it,
Talk about it

Cause I’ve seen love die
Way too many times
When it deserved to be alive
(When it deserved to be alive)
I’ve seen you cry
Way too many times
When you deserve to be alive, alive

So you give up every chance you get
Just to feel new again

I think we have an emergency
I think we have an emergency

And you do your best to show me love,
but you don’t know what love is.

So are you listening?
So are you watching me?

Well I can’t pretend that I don’t see this

It’s really not your fault
That no one cares to talk about it,
Talk about it

Cause I’ve seen love die
Way too many times
When it deserved to be alive
(When it deserved to be alive)
I’ve seen you cry
Way too many times
When you deserve to be alive, alive

These scars, they will not fade away.

No one cares to talk about it, talk about it

Cause I’ve seen love die
Way too many times
When it deserved to be alive
(When it deserved to be alive)
I’ve seen you cry
Way too many times
When you deserve to be alive, alive
