This is from one of their earlier albums, which were to me much more appealing and meaningful than the music in their latest albums. Their music is now much more commercial.
That was my first thought of this song when I had 16\17 years old, I'm now 23 and I give thanks to God that He revealed me this band in the past ,so I could connect to some band that is experiencing the same depression that I had dwelled in , I love this band so much and love what is Hailey is doing with her music still in 2020 😁😁
I am outside And I've been waiting for the sun With my wide eyes I've seen worlds that don't belong My mouth is dry With words I cannot verbalize Tell me why We live like this Keep me safe inside Your arms like towers Tower over me, yeah Cause we are broken What must we do to restore Our innocence And all the promise we adored? Give us life again Cause we just wanna be whole Lock the doors Cause I'd like to capture this voice It came to me tonight So everyone will have a choice And under red lights I'll show myself it wasn't forged We're at war We live like this Keep me safe inside Your arms like towers Tower over me Cause we are broken What must we do to restore Our innocence And all the promise we adored? Give us life again Cause we just wanna be whole Tower over me (Ah...) Tower over me (Ah...) And I'll take the truth at any cost Cause we are broken What must we do to restore Our innocence And all the promise we adored? Give us life again Cause we just wanna be whole
okay listen, I fucking love this song but I've shuffled my huge playlist like 7 times now, and it keeps coming directly back to this song and I can't stop crying. thanks for tuning in
u had a fucking psp when u were 14?! such hard live o_o just kiddin - everyboy has a right to have emotional melancholy moments. i am nearly 30 and live a privileged life. But sometimes i have my kurt cobain moments, too.
I used to lsn to this song over and over in between 2010 and 2014, I've had a lot of memories with it from family issues to unstable complicated relationship and it sang everything happened with me every time... and the amazing thing about it that it fits all the relationships. Will never forget this song.. Parahoy to life.
I still have my 2007 TWLOHA shirt with the lyrics to this song printed inside (like, against your back). I'm 30 now and this still knocks the wind outta me the same way it did at 14.
This song is awesome, I always used to listen to this album in year 11 at lunchtime while I was waiting for my friends to leave their lessons, listening to it again now I'm halfway through my first year of A-Level reminds of all the awesome times I had with them especially the ones who went to college cause I don't see them anymore
I was singing this and my mom come into my room and ask me why I was sad, I just looked at her after a minute I said "who said I was sad" she said back "that song you were singing sounds sad" I looked at her until she left, then started to sing again, story of my life
😭😭 Hate to say that was born too late,,.but thanks to my mom for introducing me this kinds of Great music and bands My message to future people is that don't let this music die
lyrics of I am outside, And I've been waiting for the sun. And with my wide eyes, I've seen worlds that don't belong. My mouth is dry, With words I cannot verbalize. Tell me why, We live like this.

This song and misguided ghosts helped me through a lot and now I'm happier than I've been in years after heartbreak, insecurity, trust issues and depression. If it wasn't for music than things would have been so much worse
I miss those times so much… I would come back home from HS, thinking about my crush, meet new Paramore fans in forums, and so on… simpler times, life was better and we didn’t know it. We felt alive.
Same, A few years I bought Brand New Eyes and Riot!, But the self titled album, just no... I like their old songs way better. And I also used my own money :)
I remember the day I sent this to you. Even though it's a sad song, I could happily listen to it because I was with you. We broke up and now you're gone. The song took on a different meaning.
Omg not every song from bands are christian they aren't a christian band just because they are christian in their own lifes does not make the band a christian band or a song
A few minutes ago, I just told myself I’m broken. And for a while I thought that I’m worthless. That I mean nothing. That I’m nothing. I’ve been fighting so hard to not be broken. But I finally realized or accepted that I am. And it’s awful. I’m okay now. I know I’m not nothing. But this realization is awful.
I come back to this song everytime I feel blue, it's not a pleasant feeling but this song makes it worthwhile? I don't know, I know it makes me even more sad but in a beautiful way.
I discovered Paramore when I was 10. I didn’t know how different their lyrics would sound 5 years later, though I’m listening to the same songs as I did. This one, though, I didn’t start listening to until 2017. Last year was tough and this song helps me feel less alone.
Los amo de verdad Rescatan mis días Gracias de todo corazón Los admiro muchisimo Los siento tan cercanos a mi como mis mejores amigos No me alcanzan las palabras para decirles lo mucho que los amo y los admiro y la gratitud que se merecen Paramore *-* Los amo
Lock the doors Cus I'd like to capture this voice That came to me tonight So everyone will have a choice And under red lights I'll show myself it wasn't forged We're at war, we live like this
This is still the best song they've ever made. I wish they'd bring it back for some live shows. She's a way better live singer now and would do it justice. All of the live performances of this from way back when were shaky and pitchy
Why is it that their lesser-known songs are some of their best ones?
I was just thinking this!
Right!
Because sadly people like what's catchy, not what has a meaning.
+Sunny Santos agreed!
This is from one of their earlier albums, which were to me much more appealing and meaningful than the music in their latest albums. Their music is now much more commercial.
Last time I listened to this I was 15/16 and now listening to it at 21 it has so much more meaning. Got tears..
Eleanor Crowther Same!!!! :cccc
Eleanor Crowther should've had meaning then. idky some 15 year olds are such dumb assess
:(
Haha true
Eleanor Crowther were same
The refrain of this song is just one of the most powerful and amazing I've ever heard, musically and lyrically.
+Watasque I She was crying for God, that's why!
"we just want to be home" ...basically summarizes all of human experience and desire in 6 words, very powerful
This song is so underrated and its sad
Yes, I wish they made a Official Music Video for this...
This song is like a prayer i feel the message
JohnMark Salayug it is, she's singing it to Christ!
yes!
I am looking for this comment. I just listened to this song randomly today and this was the thing i noticed from the lyrics. ❣️
That was my first thought of this song when I had 16\17 years old, I'm now 23 and I give thanks to God that He revealed me this band in the past ,so I could connect to some band that is experiencing the same depression that I had dwelled in , I love this band so much and love what is Hailey is doing with her music still in 2020 😁😁
Amen brother . Chokes me up a lil every time . Love her heart’s transparency on this .
This song is my Hope in my dark place. It gives me chills.
i feel the same way here!
It’s just a spark, but it’s enough to keep me going.
@@juviaseagray3223 yes Last Hope 😭
Sometimes we don’t need people. We need great music.
Your arms like towers,
Tower over me
One of the best lines of music like ever
Dylan Sands Ikr this is so sweeeet
+Dylan Sands I once got Eiffel Towered. But I guess that's not what they sing about..
+jeanbobbb why dont you f*** off and stop commenting your bull**** everywhere
+Chantel Beckett OOh Yeah!?! Well...Why don't you..stop being so sexy!
+jeanbobbb uhhm...
thanks i think
It's so lovely to rediscover Paramore in 2016 *.*
megankaulitz & again 2017
And 2018 💖💖💖
:) I rediscover every time I listen. They are #goals
In 2018 as well.
I love paramore.
I am outside
And I've been waiting for the sun
With my wide eyes
I've seen worlds that don't belong
My mouth is dry
With words I cannot verbalize
Tell me why
We live like this
Keep me safe inside
Your arms like towers
Tower over me, yeah
Cause we are broken
What must we do to restore
Our innocence
And all the promise we adored?
Give us life again
Cause we just wanna be whole
Lock the doors
Cause I'd like to capture this voice
It came to me tonight
So everyone will have a choice
And under red lights
I'll show myself it wasn't forged
We're at war
We live like this
Keep me safe inside
Your arms like towers
Tower over me
Cause we are broken
What must we do to restore
Our innocence
And all the promise we adored?
Give us life again
Cause we just wanna be whole
Tower over me
(Ah...) Tower over me
(Ah...)
And I'll take the truth at any cost
Cause we are broken
What must we do to restore
Our innocence
And all the promise we adored?
Give us life again
Cause we just wanna be whole
With the right music you either forget everything or you remember everything, and this song means so much because it lets me forget and remember... x
That makes so much sense
I am broken, but it's ok cause Paramore help me to be learned., how to survive if you're alone
takes me back to 2007 when I was 12, oh man. This album and All We Know is Falling are the best.
Rachel Berigtold I really want a BNE butterfly tattoo
okay listen, I fucking love this song but I've shuffled my huge playlist like 7 times now, and it keeps coming directly back to this song and I can't stop crying.
thanks for tuning in
I was listen to this from my psp, when I was 14 😭😭
now I'm 20
Thank you paramore for growing up together 💙
Wow!
Same here 💙
u had a fucking psp when u were 14?! such hard live o_o
just kiddin - everyboy has a right to have emotional melancholy moments. i am nearly 30 and live a privileged life. But sometimes i have my kurt cobain moments, too.
It was released in 2007
Yet you couldn't learn English jk love paramore
This song has saved my life so many times thank you paramore
Sooo many good songs on this album, but this has got to be one of my favorites. Not even just from this album, I mean generally from Paramore :P
I agree
+Caylie Olson Same here. Same everywhere!
Caylie Olson I’m discovering new paramore masterpieces everyday and I am soooo thankful for them 😊
Riot! will always be my favorite Paramore album
I was 15 when I heard this song on radio. Now turning 30 and broken due to Covid pandemic, and still listening to this in Spotify.
Same here
This will always be one of my favorite songs
More than 5 years since i hear it from the very first time and i cried every single time. I reaally live this song♥
Heard*
Stephanie Olguin clearly you were too busy listening to Paramore to spell right xD I understand!
Kiproll Yeeeesssss It was way too fastttr i couldn't even read the whole comment
Stephanie Olguin feels!
+Stephanie Olguin "More than 5" sounds like Maroon 5, if you softly speak it, just saying
I miss this era of music 😢
my older sister had the album disk and every time it would play i would cry..... now that I've grown.... i understand and can now relate
One of my more favorite underrated tracks from this album
I used to lsn to this song over and over in between 2010 and 2014, I've had a lot of memories with it from family issues to unstable complicated relationship and it sang everything happened with me every time... and the amazing thing about it that it fits all the relationships.

This song hits hard during this time of riots and disunity
this one has to be def one of my favs from riot!!!
This song is so relevant right now.
+Monica Dafoe Exactly! Just what I've thought about.
I was singing this and my mom come into my room and ask me why I was sad, I just looked at her after a minute I said "who said I was sad" she said back "that song you were singing sounds sad" I looked at her until she left, then started to sing again, story of my life
Don’t worry…….. we get you💚
😭😭 Hate to say that was born too late,,.but thanks to my mom for introducing me this kinds of Great music and bands
My message to future people is that don't let this music die
I found this by myself 😎 I'm proud of myself
@@smarb5428 you should be🙌
👍
Please don't ever stop doing music. The world won't be the same without it.....
It's 2019 and we're still broken.
u mean 2020 corona virus ??
Only you
2020 and we're definitely still broken.
no reason for me to be.
Oh if only u knew...
This album was my company in some very hard moments of my life.
This music is a lot for me.
Almost 20 years listening to it.
lyrics of
I am outside,
And I've been waiting for the sun.
And with my wide eyes,
I've seen worlds that don't belong.
My mouth is dry,
With words I cannot verbalize.
Tell me why,
We live like this.
Keep me safe inside,
Your arms like towers.
Tower over me.
Yeah,
Cause we are broken.
What must we do to restore,
Our innocence.
And all the promise we adored.
Give us life again,
Cause we just wanna be whole.
Lock the doors,
Cause I'd like to capture this voice.
It came to me tonight,
So everyone will have a choice.
And under red lights,
I'll show myself it wasn't forged.
We're at war,
We live like this.
Keep me safe inside,
Your arms like towers.
Tower over me.
Cause we are broken.
What must we do to restore,
Our innocence.
And all the promise we adored.
Give us life again,
Cause we just wanna be whole.
Tower over me.
Tower over me...
And I'll take the truth at any cost.
Cause we are broken.
What must we do to restore,
Our innocence.
And all the promise we adored.
Give us life again,
Cause we just wanna be whole.
That is just in the discription
+Liva Francken lol :( :(
DreamCatcher 13 thank you for this
"We're at war, we live like this"
😭
3 years ago when I was 15 I didn't understand the meaning of this song. I'm 18 nowadays and I'm so grateful for understanding now
2020 and Im still listening to this.. Who's with me?
Jun Soriano yeh yeh
Opa! Brazil hihi 🤘💕
Me too
I am
Hear
the best song from one the best album
We are broken
It's 2020 I'm still broken I've been broken for so long I think a lot of us are broken 😢💔 and used to it their are life lessons I love this song
This song and misguided ghosts helped me through a lot and now I'm happier than I've been in years after heartbreak, insecurity, trust issues and depression. If it wasn't for music than things would have been so much worse
One of my favorite songs :)
i am not even a christian but just by listening to this i knew it was talking about something precious wow this song is amazing
This song is so amazing! It's my all time favorite by Paramore.
This is such a great song, a great album, and probably my favorite album cover of all time.
26 years old still listening to this because I AM BROKEN
25 and same 🥺
26 and I’ve just realized this year, I’m beyond repair.
Hope things are getting better for all you broken people. Try to focus on the little things :)
🫶🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾
Same here ❤
This is going to be a classic one day. One of the greats.
Wow, this is the first time I've ever listened to these songs. They're great
This always felt so spiritual and gospel-esque to me, and now I understand why
This song dont get enough attention ,One of their very best. Also would be perfect for a dramatic movie scene.
Back when Paramore made beautiful music
The underrated songs with no video are so amazing and my favourites they are so powerful
Also why are the acoustic or emotional songs so sad
Paramores RIOT=the crowning achievement, masterpiece of this band..it just so happens to be in there first album.
2023 who’s throwing down to this? Her vocals are incredible
So good
Lost my auntie to cancer 2 months ago and for whatever reason this song gets me through it. R.I.P Marian, I love you so much.
💔
i love this song and the band so much
Legendary music..the rise and falls and tempo and beat, the lyrics it's all perfect!
Best Punk Rock Ever
This song inspired me to name my book "tower over me". If it ever gets made into a movie, I need this song to be the soundtrack!!
Awwww!!! Love this song!!! The voice of an angel! 😇 Helped me thru a rough patch...before there were smartphones!!! 🙌
this era brings back so many memories, 2021 and im still here checkin this song~
It's been so long since I heard Riot! The feels man :'(
sitting alone in my room, lights out. silently crying while listening to this song. my parents are having an argument next room. it helps
One of my favorites from Riot :')
I miss those times so much… I would come back home from HS, thinking about my crush, meet new Paramore fans in forums, and so on… simpler times, life was better and we didn’t know it. We felt alive.
Not ashamed to say this was my first Paramore album..... and my first album I bought with my own money
Same, A few years I bought Brand New Eyes and Riot!, But the self titled album, just no... I like their old songs way better. And I also used my own money :)
I remember the day I sent this to you. Even though it's a sad song, I could happily listen to it because I was with you. We broke up and now you're gone. The song took on a different meaning.
give us life again
cause we just want to be whole
*chefs kiss*
Classic still amazing in 2024. Love Paramore one of the greatest bands of all time.
saudades de quando paramore era assim 🙁 , mas ainda amo eles 😍
This song has a special place in my heart, as the first song I ever used for an AMV.
Makes you so happy that you cry well doesn't it?
Probably the best song of Riot and it's so how underrrated is :( this brings to tears every time i hear it
I'm just sitting alone in my room, listening to this on repeat while thinking of Jeremy leaving the band.
+Agustina Coronel I am listening this song for Jeremy. I can't imagine the band without him.
+Jose Luis Herondale This band is my favorite since 2008. I can't with this. sorrry, my english is bad, i know that.
Jose Luis Herondale I know, they're my fave band too. I grew up with them and this is so heartbreaking, I can't believe it
+Agustina Coronel what?!! D:
Eamon Hyatt Have you been living under a rock? He left the band on december
I remember when i was 13 or 14 screaming this song so loud, i didnt notice at that time that this lyrics are so powerfull
This could easily be a worship song x)
Yeah I was just thinking it sounded like a Christian song
+nltcraze it is
nltcraze They are cristian (says wikipedia), so it's not that weird
+Petra Koelewijn they were. 2 of the christians left tho
Omg not every song from bands are christian they aren't a christian band just because they are christian in their own lifes does not make the band a christian band or a song
Paramore is a band
And they always will be
It’s Xmas 🎄 2021 let’s go into the new year listing to paeamore
I love paeamore! Best band ever!
wow... this song is even more powerful at this time...
2022 I remember listening to paramore as a preteen/teenager here I am at 21 still listening 🖤
A few minutes ago, I just told myself I’m broken. And for a while I thought that I’m worthless. That I mean nothing. That I’m nothing. I’ve been fighting so hard to not be broken. But I finally realized or accepted that I am. And it’s awful. I’m okay now. I know I’m not nothing. But this realization is awful.
Essa música...Amo 😍😍😍
I come back to this song everytime I feel blue, it's not a pleasant feeling but this song makes it worthwhile? I don't know, I know it makes me even more sad but in a beautiful way.
So relevant
with everything that has happened recently this song hits the nail on the head
I discovered Paramore when I was 10. I didn’t know how different their lyrics would sound 5 years later, though I’m listening to the same songs as I did.
This one, though, I didn’t start listening to until 2017. Last year was tough and this song helps me feel less alone.
Los amo de verdad
Rescatan mis días
Gracias de todo corazón
Los admiro muchisimo
Los siento tan cercanos a mi como mis mejores amigos
No me alcanzan las palabras para decirles lo mucho que los amo y los admiro y la gratitud que se merecen
Paramore *-*
Los amo
this is nostalgia in a song
I would give anything to watch them perfom that song!
Only one
We are broookeeennnn , one of my favorite songs
I'm not crying you are
Let The Flame Begins, We Are Broken and When it Rains is the best Paramore songs..
Lock the doors
Cus I'd like to capture this voice
That came to me tonight
So everyone will have a choice
And under red lights
I'll show myself it wasn't forged
We're at war, we live like this
cant explain the way these lyrics just pushed through all thoughts
This is still the best song they've ever made. I wish they'd bring it back for some live shows. She's a way better live singer now and would do it justice. All of the live performances of this from way back when were shaky and pitchy
I like this song because her voice is so good ❤
It's 2023 and I'm still here. It gets better with time
This song seems like someone's begging for God... it reminds me a lot of Jesus and how we need Him united with us.
One their best songs.. brings back soooooo many good memories.
"we just wanna be whole."
Classic Paramore will truly be missed. Now all our old favorites are either not making anything or have to cover one eye. The world really is ending.
