{Verse 1}
I scraped my knees when I was praying
And found a demon in my safest haven, seems like
It's getting harder to believe in anything
Than just to get lost in all my selfish thoughts
I wanna know what it'd be like
To find perfection in my pride
To see nothing in the light
Or turn it off in all my spite
In all my spite i'll turn it off
{Chorus}
And the worst part is
Before it gets any better
We're headed for a cliff
And in the free fall I will realize
I'm better off when I hit the bottom
{Verse 2}
The tragedy, it seems unending
I'm watching everyone I looked up to break and bending
We're taking shortcuts and false solutions
Just to come out the hero
Well I can see behind the curtain (I can see, yeah yeah)
The wheels are cranking, turning,
It's all wrong the way we're working
Towards a goal, that's nonexistent
It's nonexistent, but we just keep believing
{Chorus}
And the worst part is
Before it gets any better
We're headed for a cliff
And in the free fall I will realize
I'm better off when I hit the bottom
{Bridge}
I wanna know what it'd be like
To find perfection in my pride
To see nothing in the light
and turn it off in all my spite
in all my spite i'll turn it off
Just turn it off again
{Chorus}
And the worst part is
Before it gets any better
We're headed for a cliff
And in the free fall I will realize
I'm better off when I hit the bottom

When i first heard this song i didn't really know what it meant but after reading the comments on here, i finally realise what it's about. It's such a meaningful/beautiful song. I really love it. It's proper touched my soul and when i'm down, this is the song i automatically go too because it makes me think that life isn't that bad after all.
same .. it has several meanings .. 1 = the fact tht death is better than anything that life can offer 2= struggle in faith and belief in god .. but i think personally that the main reason is to get the point across that life is just an object ..i love the way that paramore do this with most of their songs .. i've been a fan of theirs for a while .. and i kow all the songs .. i just can't wait to meet them again in december .. Paramore rule !!
they are a agreat inspiration to me and my band (Y)
i luv wht does this song talks about when she talks about that she relizes that
its the worst part when ur falling and think that ur better off when u reach the bottom ..she says that the worst part is death..but no1 relizes until they are heading directly for it i luv this song soo much it makes u feel optmistic after all u have been through
