Don't come looking for me
Cause I'll be right here with the words you said
I'm looking for the words to say
You know what you did, you know
How can anybody forget the promise that you made?
Cause this is how the promise breaks
I always knew you'd fall through
And now you're proof
Rewind to the first time
And I felt it coming
I knew it would not last
Rewind to the first time
And I felt it coming
Make it quick, make it painless
Don't tell me lies
Just say goodbye
And now you're running from me
So cool, so scared of what you might have said
And no one's ever looked away
Cause we know what you did, we know
If I told anybody, then we would soon forget your name
And you would never have a place
I always knew you'd fall through
And now you're proof
Rewind to the first time
And I felt it coming
I knew it would not last
Rewind to the first time
And I felt it coming
Make it quick, make it painless
Don't tell me lies
Just say goodbye
Please don't say too much
Oh, I think we've heard enough from you
Rewind to the first time
And I felt it coming
I knew it would not last
Rewind to the first time
And I felt it coming
Make it quick, make it painless
Don't tell me lies
Just say goodbye
Don't tell me lies
Just say goodbye
Cause I'll be right here with the words you said
I'm looking for the words to say
You know what you did, you know
How can anybody forget the promise that you made?
Cause this is how the promise breaks
I always knew you'd fall through
And now you're proof
Rewind to the first time
And I felt it coming
I knew it would not last
Rewind to the first time
And I felt it coming
Make it quick, make it painless
Don't tell me lies
Just say goodbye
And now you're running from me
So cool, so scared of what you might have said
And no one's ever looked away
Cause we know what you did, we know
If I told anybody, then we would soon forget your name
And you would never have a place
I always knew you'd fall through
And now you're proof
Rewind to the first time
And I felt it coming
I knew it would not last
Rewind to the first time
And I felt it coming
Make it quick, make it painless
Don't tell me lies
Just say goodbye
Please don't say too much
Oh, I think we've heard enough from you
Rewind to the first time
And I felt it coming
I knew it would not last
Rewind to the first time
And I felt it coming
Make it quick, make it painless
Don't tell me lies
Just say goodbye
Don't tell me lies
Just say goodbye

"Rewind to the first time
And I felt it coming
I knew it would not last
Rewind to the first time
And I felt it coming
Make it quick, make it painless
Don't tell me lies
Just say goodbye" i was going out with this guy that i really liked and in the beginning of the relationship i had a feeling he would let me go, and i felt like he was lying to me when he said he just didn't wanna be in a relationship at the moment,but i knew there had to be more to it. i liked him so much though..it hurts to think about him sometimes...
it could be about her parents getting divorced or her step father
that make it quick make it painless line makes it seem like she was ready for it to be over such a good song but i only knew the live version
please??

Cause I'll be right here with the words you said
I'm looking for the words to say
You know what you did, you know
He's said something that's really upset her and she just wants to be alone to think about what he said. and to think of some reply. she doesn't want him to comfort her about it; he knows what he did wrong.
How can anybody forget the promise that you made?
Cause this is how the promise breaks
I always knew you'd fall through
And now you're proof
It seems like the thing he did to upset her was to break a promise. Like maybe it was a promise about them staying together? and he's leaving her, showing 'how the promise breaks', and falling through, like she should have known he would.
Rewind to the first time
And I felt it coming
I knew it would not last
Shes thinking back to the first time she felt the break up or problem coming. and she knew it wouldn't last -either the relationship, or the problem. im not sure.
Rewind to the first time
And I felt it coming
Make it quick, make it painless
Don't tell me lies
Just say goodbye
She knows it's going to end. She wants it over and done with. Not like one of those dragged out break ups where they try and comfort the girls and say all of the 'we can still be friends' rubbish and such. she doesn't want lies, she wants him to say goodbye.
And now you're running from me
So cool, so scared of what you might have said
And no one's ever looked away
Cause we know what you did, we know
He's running from her. He want to forget something that he said that he regrets.
If I told anybody, then we would soon forget your name
And you would never have a place
I always knew you'd fall through
And now you're proof
Whatever he's done, it was bad. And they both know that if she told anybody, they would hate him, or think very badly of him, for it too. They would 'forget his name,' maybe cut off the friendship. And he wouldn't have a place, or be accepted, anymore.
Please don't say too much
Oh, I think we've heard enough from you
The same as before. She doesn't want to hear what he has to say. Maybe its hurting her. She's heard enough of the hurtful things he says.
Thats probably a fairly shallow interpretation :s
but yeah. whatever.
I love this song so much more since I really started thinking about its meaning. As I do with all of the Paramore songs.
They really are a fantastic band.
The popularity is almost a shame. I hope they dont get too corporate. I doubt it though.
