This is the third and final song released as a part of Paramore’s Singles Club series. It was released on December 5, 2011.
“In The Mourning” was the first Paramore song that came after Josh Farro and Zac Farro left the band. But Hayley Williams was quoted:
I did not want to publish the full song...
[Verse 1]
You escaped like a runaway train
Off the tracks and down again
And my heart's beating like a steam boat tugging
[Pre-Chorus]
All your burdens
On my shoulders
[Chorus]
And in the mourning I'll rise
In the mourning I'll let you die
In the mourning, all my worries
[Verse 2]
And now there's nothing but time that's wasted
And words that have no backbone
And now it seems like the whole world's waiting
[Pre-Chorus]
Can you hear the
Echoes fading?
[Chorus]
In the mourning I'll rise
In the mourning I'll let you die
In the mourning, all my sorries
[Bridge]
And it takes all my strength
Not to dig you up
From the ground in which you lay
The biggest part of me
You were the greatest thing
And now you're just a memory
To let go of
[Chorus]
And in the mourning I'll rise
And in the mourning I'll let you die
In the mourning, all my sorries
[Outro]
In the mourning I'll rise
In the mourning I'll let you die
In the mourning, all my sorries
