Paramore - 26 (Official Audio)

Paramore's official audio for "26" from 'After Laughter' - available now on Fueled By Ramen.

LYRICS
Man you really know how to get someone down
Everything was fine until you came around
I’ve been chasing after dreamers in the clouds
But after all wasn’t I the one who said
To keep your feet on the ground?
Man you really brought me back down

Hold on to hope if you got it
Don’t let it go for nobody
They say that dreaming is free
But I wouldn’t care what it cost me

You got me tied up, but I stay close to the window
And I talk to myself about the places that I used to go
I’m hoping someday maybe I’ll just float away
And I’ll forget every cynical thing you say
When you gonna hear me out?
Man you really bring me down

Hold on to hope if you got it
Don’t let it go for nobody
They say that dreaming is free
But I wouldn’t care what it cost me

Reality will break your heart
Survival will not be the hardest part
It’s keeping all your hopes alive
When all the rest of you has died
So let it break your heart

Hold on to hope if you got it
Don’t let it go for nobody

Hold on to hope if you got it
Don’t let it go for nobody

They say that dreaming is free
But I wouldn’t care what it cost me

2009 ~ "Keep your feet on the ground when your head's in the clouds"
2017 ~ "After all wasn't I the one who said to keep your feet on the ground"
IM NOT CRYING

[franklinnegrao]

She doesn't have hope anymore, but she would do anything to have it back and to dream again. That's the reason she tells us to hold onto it. You know, I'm losing mine as well, so I'm afraid I'll let it break my heart.

[ejaywithanay]

"So let it break your heart..." is the line that always makes me break out in tears. Sometimes we forget that we need to be sad at times in order to get better.

[domystic]

I just turned 26, and this song is the exact depiction of my life right now. Dreaming will cost you something, but in return gives you growth. I will keep my hope alive. This is life. ❤

- Lyrics:

Man, you really know how to get someone down
Everything was fine, until you came around
And I’ve been chasing after dreamers in the clouds
After all wasn’t I the one who said
To keep your feet on the ground
Man, you really brought me back down

Hold onto hope if you got it
Don’t let it go for nobody
And they say that dreaming is free
But I wouldn’t care what it cost me

You got me tied up but I stay close to the window
And I talk to myself about the places that I used to go
And hope that someday that I just float away
And forget every cynical thing you said
When you gonna hear me out
Man, you really bring me down

Hold onto hope if you got it
Don’t let it go for nobody
And they say that dreaming is free
But I wouldn’t care what it cost me

Reality will break your heart
Survival will not be the hardest part
It’s keeping all your hopes alive
When all the rest of you has died
So let it break your heart

So hold onto hope if you got it
Don’t let it go for nobody
And they say that dreaming is free
But I wouldn’t care what it cost me

Hold onto hope if you got it
Don’t let it go for nobody
And they say dreaming is free
But I wouldn’t care what it cost me

[pizzacake]

I want to cry. I heard that Hayley's favorite song was on this album, 26 is probably the one

[greicytablante]

''Reality will break your heart
Survival will not be the hardest part
It’s keeping all your hopes alive
When all the rest of you has died''



oh boy.

[huy]

I've always understood this song. And I've waited for years to understand it even more.

In less than an hour, I will turn 26. Alone, as always, but not the loneliest.

Happy 26th birthday to me. And yes, I still have hope and I'm holding on to it.

Cheers, Paramore.

"They say that dreaming is free
But I wouldn’t care what it cost me"

DAMN

[marybodoraya]

"It's keeping all your hopes alive when all the rest of you has died" THIS LINE. DAMN.

[jaysegarcia]

My god...this yells Misguided Ghosts, I love this!

[grandebig]

Paramore is the only band/artist that brings me to tears. Tears from when I was 15. They bring me back to my hard times and remind me that i have good times as well. The sadness i felt back then always comes back when i go listen to their music. But it reminds me that i am happy and i can do this. Thank you Paramore, i am so thankful for Hayley Taylor and Zac. Paramore for fucking ever!!

LYRICS
Man, you really know how to get someone down
Everything was fine until you came around
I've been chasing after dreamers in the clouds
After all wasn't I the one who said
To keep your feet on the ground?
Man, you really brought me back down

Hold on to hope if you got it
Don't let it go for nobody
They say that dreaming is free
But I wouldn't care what it cost me

You got me tied up but I stay close to the window
And I talk to myself about the places that I used to go
I'm hoping someday maybe I'll just float away
And I'll forget every cynical thing you say

Man, you really bring me down

Hold on to hope if you got it

But I wouldn't care what it cost me

Reality will break your heart
Survival will not be the hardest part
It's keeping all your hopes alive
When all the rest of you has died
So let it break your heart

And hold on to hope if you got it
Don't let it go for nobody

Hold on to hope if you got it
Don't let it go for nobody
They say that dreaming is free
I wouldn't care what it cost me

[SamYungOfficial]

There hasn't been a day since After Laughter came out that I haven't listened to this song. Thank you Paramore.

[facundici]

So sad yet so beautiful! If you pay attention to all the lyrics, is one of the saddest albums. But they disguise sadness with happy rythms. I can't relate more with all the songs, praise Paramore! Hallelujah!

[laurynnatalia]

can I just

"reality will break your heart."

YES.

[settledsea]

It's 11:00 pm on the eve of my 26th birthday. I am not in a birthday mood at all. I have no idea where my life is headed. I am living with my family because I am having a really hard time finding work since December. I also have anxiety/depression issues I'm dealing with. I feel so broken because I feel like I'm messing up everything for not only me but for my family as well. In this moment I just feel so hopeless. This song came out at the perfect time. Thank you Paramore. I hope 26 is better then this past year.

[ronmitchmusic]

I get how someone listening to this for the first time would think that it's kinda sad/emotional/bitter-sweat; maybe? or some kind of not optimal emotional state. But I would say, isn't it actually comforting to feel that you're not the only one who has ever felt this way? What to about it is a whole 'nother question, but for right now; & going forward, this is where a lot of us are living/being. "Hold on to Hope if You Got It."

[borahae]

When they came out with Hard times, I thought this new sound just wasn't Paramore. I absolutely hated it. but 3 weeks ago, I heard my sister singing these beautiful lyrics so I asked her for the artist and she looked at me like she was shocked and she goes "seriously? it's Paramore." that's when I knew I had to download the album and give it a try. Boy, I fell back in love with Paramore like it was my first time.
I'm sorry for taking so long Paramore. I'm back now and I'll never leave you again.

[Ladymusicc]

The feels. I relate so hard to this album. And I didn't know I would. Paramore always has a way of singing exactly what I'm thinking/going through/dealing with. And from that, it helps me through it.
