Paramore – Looking Up lyrics
Things are looking up, oh finally!
I thought I'd never see the day when you smile at me.
We always pull through
Oh when we try,
I'm always wrong but you're never right.
Oh you're never right!

Honestly, can you believe we crossed the world while it's asleep?
I'd never trade it in, cuz I've always wanted this!
It's not a dream anymore! Nooo...
It's not a dream anymore! It's worth fighting for.

Could have given up so easily
I was a few cheap shots away from the end of me
Taken for granted, almost everything that I would have died for
Just yesterday,
Just yeterday

Honestly, can you believe we crossed the world while it's asleep?
I'd never trade it in, cuz I've always wanted this!
It's not a dream anymore! Nooo...
It's not a dream anymore! It's worth fighting for.

God knows the world doesn't need another band, (whoo-oa, whooo-oa!)
But what a waste it would've been! (whoo-oa, whooo-oa!)
I can't believe we almost hung it up(whoo-oa, whooo-oa!)
We're just getting started (whoo-oa, whooo-oa!)

Honestly, can you believe we crossed the world while it's asleep?
I'd never trade it in, cuz I've always wanted this!
It's not a dream anymore! Nooo...
It's not a dream anymore! It's worth fighting for.

I Can't Believe We Almost Hung It Up (whoo-oa, whooo-oa!)
We're Just Getting Started(whoo-oa, whooo-oa!)
I Can't Believe We Almost Hung It Up(whoo-oa, whooo-oa!)
We're Just Getting Started!
Yeah We're Just Gettin Started!

    This song (like pretty much all of the album) is about them nearly splitting up, cuz they hated eachother, but they realised they were lucky to be in such an amazing, sucsessful band and they brought themselves together againby getting their feelings out as lyrics in the songs. Basically Lauriemusic has got if sussed and I couldn't have put it better myself. Hayley said it in an interview for Kerrang!

    This song is actually about how Paramore almost split up in 2008. And how they realized that they were very lucky people to be in such a successful band that they were taking for granted. It's about how the band began to like eachother again because they were living together day in day out and they we're getting sick of eachother, but they then resolved their problems from writing the album.
    Brand New Eyes is actually all about what Hayley thought of the rest of the band members whilst they were arguing.

    The songs lyrics explain the band's struggles and how it is finally "looking up. " trying to write brand new eyes, our beloved paramore members were not getting along. They were having a hard time writing new music. They almost broke up during this period. This song explains how successful they are, and how thankful they are. They will not be breaking up and the paramore experience was/is worth all they've been through.
