Music and Lyrics (11) ft. Cliffhangers

I first heard this song back when I was in high school -- pretty far back -- and at that time, this was just another rock, pop punk song by Paramore I adored. But when I heard it again recently, it caught my attention and I had a totally different reaction. Instead of feeling all nostalgic and thinking about how much I missed this song, when it came to the chorus I was like, 'OHMYGOD, you're talking about cliffhangers, right?'

"When It Rains"

Artist: Paramore

Album: Riot!

Now on to the lyrics..

After reading a book with a damn cliffhanger:
You made yourself a bed

At the bottom of the blackest hole

And convinced yourself that

It's not the reason you don't see the sun anymore

Guess who this part is for:
And no, oh, how could you do it?

Oh I, I never saw it coming.

No, oh, I need the ending.

So why can't you stay

Just long enough to explain?

See what I mean? Ohahaha. Yep. This song really is about heartbreak. Brought to you by none other than those beloved books of yours.
