    IGNORANCE

    if i'm a bad person, you don't like me
    i guess i'll go, 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
    oh we're not the same
    the friends who stuck together
    we wrote our names in blood
    but i guess you can't accept that the change is good
    it's good

    you treat me just like another stranger
    well it's nice to meet you sir
    i guess i'll go
    i best be on my way out

    ignorance is your new best friend

    this is the best thing that could've happened
    any longer and i wouldn't have made it
    it's not a war no, it's not a rapture
    i'm just a person but you can't take it
    the same tricks that once fooled me
    they won't get you anywhere
    i'm not the same kid from your memory
    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
    oh we're not the same
    we used to stick together
    we wrote our names in blood
    but i guess you can't accept that the change is good
    it's good

    you treat me just like another stranger
    well it's nice to meet you sir
    i guess i'll go
    i best be on my way out

    ignorance is your new best friend

    you treat me just like another stranger
    well it's nice to meet you sir
    i guess i'll go
    i best be on my way out

    love,
    PARAMORE

    ps. by tuesday, everyone should be practiced and ready to sing it loud!!!
    pps. we haven't decided any of the final titles yet. we mix on monday, so we'll decide for sure then.

I Know it's kinda late to comment on this post but (i'm always late to anything that's important to me?) i think it's worth it... I should've been to this post a LOT SOONER, because a sang the lyrics really like... made up or smth... i just laugh about it now, but i was like a 5 year old filling up the spaces i couldn't figure out.... Anyways, this song is one of my favourites from BNE, maybe because it was teh first single... maybe not...haha I just love it.... Kinda like one of the best songs ever!

Submitted By: Ashley Nite Hey !!! It's Ashley from Fanklin, TN !!!! I know you guys probably hear this a TRILLION times a day, but I seriously am your BIGGEST FAN IN THE WORLD !!!! I LOVE YOU GUYS SOOOOOOO MUCH !!!!! I have pretty much all of your girl's T-shirts, your RIOT lyric book & DVD, ALL of your songs on my mp3 player, I have TONS of art hanging in my room that's dedicated to you guys, every person that I've ever met since I found out about you guys (which was 4 years ago) I've told them to look you guys up, I know every single word to all of your songs, I dedicate pretty much all of my art, music, & writing to you guys, my fourth grade teacher (Mrs.Williams) is Hayley's mom & the next year she went on to teach 6th grade at my 5th grade school & that year she choreographed the shcool musical "OKLAHOMA" & Hayley came to one of the rehersals & was sick & when I spotted Hayley I couldn't control myself & I jumped up & down & screamed (Sorry about that Hayley, but I just couldn't help it.) but then my teacher yelled at me for a while & I was mortified, then on the last performance of it you came & watched the show with your freinds right after you had flown in from seeing Wicked in LA . The Farrow Brothers Grandmother went to my bible study in 2nd grade & she prayed that Paramore would be safe when you guys were in Orlando recording "ALL WE KNOW IS FALLING" (I hadn't met Mrs. Williams yet.), on September 12th 2008 I had my birthday party at Cool Springs Gallaria Mall & I saw Hayley & one of her freinds walk by with glasses & her hair was pulled up in a spiky ponytail & me & my freind tried to stop you at Gigi's Cupcakes to say hi but then we decided not to bother you so that you wouldn't get stampeded if some people recognized you, & unfourtunatly I've only been to one of your concerts because the 5 others that I would have been able to fo to were to expensive or we were out of town & each time I couldn't go I was heartbroken (I HATE BEING HEART BROKEN :C ), I'm also getting your limited edition deluxe box set of "BRAND NEW EYES" on September 24th(WOO HOO 14 days after my bday), Oh & by the way I counted how many things I have that have PARAMORE Written on them, well I have 47 things that have PARAMORE written on them. So if that's not enough to convince you that I'm your biggest fan in the universe, ever in all of the history of mankind than I dont know what will convince you . I'M NOT A STALKER !!!! I can totally promise you that ! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLAY MORE SHOWS IN NASHVILLE I'M ON MY KNEES BEGGING YOU !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IT WOULD SEIRIOUSLY MEAN THE WORLD TO ME !!! I LOVE YOU ALL SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH !!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'M SERIOUSLY NOT A STALKER !!!! If you were to ask Mrs. Cristi Williams right now the question I'm about to type, she would say "NO." , Ok here's the question "Is Ashley Nite a stalker ?" She would say "No." I love you all so much & I hope that you all have safe travels !!! PS I'm seiriously not a stalker !!! Love you guys !!!
