Their first release as a trio, “Monster” is an aggressively grungy rock tune that served as a signal that the band wasn’t quite finished yet.
After the very public, and less-than-amicable split of members Josh and Zac Farro in the December of 2010, tensions and suspicions about Paramore’s future s...
Monster Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You were my conscience
So solid, now you're like water
And we started drowning
Not like we'd sink any farther
But I let my heart go
It's somewhere down at the bottom
But I'll get a new one
And come back for the hope that you've stolen
[Chorus]
I'll stop the whole world
I'll stop the whole world from turning into a monster
Eating us alive
Don't you ever wonder how we survive?
Well, now that you're gone the world is ours
[Post-Chorus]
Ah-ah, ah, ah
Ah-ah, ah, ah
[Verse 2]
I'm only human
I've got a skeleton in me
But I'm not the villain
Despite what you're always preaching
Call me a traitor
I'm just collecting your victims
And they're getting stronger
I hear them calling
(Calling) Calling
[Chorus]
I'll stop the whole world
I'll stop the whole world from turning into a monster
Eating us alive
Don't you ever wonder how we survive?
Well, now that you're gone the world is ours
[Bridge]
Well, you find your strength in solutions
But I like the tension
And not always knowing the answers
But you're gonna lose it
You're gonna lose it
[Chorus]
I'll stop the whole world
I'll stop the whole world from turning into a monster
Eating us alive
Don't you ever wonder how we survive?
Well, now that you're gone the world
I'll stop the whole world
I'll stop the whole world from turning into a monster
Eating us alive
Don't you ever wonder how we survive?
Now that you're gone the world is ours

What did Paramore say about "Monster"?
Hayley said in an interview with NME:
I can’t really say that ‘Monster’ is an indication of what to expect on the next Paramore album. We, as a band, will always try to evolve and try new things. It will be different for sure, but it will still keep Paramore‘s essence.
