“Tell Me How” is a slow-moving, laden track that discusses losing friends, including previous members of the band. Lead singer Hayley Williams finds herself at a crossroads with the choices be live or let die.
Most notably, the album ends with the lyric “I can still believe” which shows signs of op...
[Verse 1]
I can't call you a stranger
But I can't call you
I know you think that I erased you
You may hate me, but I can't hate you
And I won't replace you
[Chorus]
Tell me how to feel about you now
Tell me how to feel about you now
Oh, let me know
Do I suffocate or let go?
[Verse 2]
Think I'm tired of getting over it
And just starting something new again
I'm getting sick of the beginnings
And always coming to your defenses
I guess it's good to get it off my chest
I guess I can't believe I haven't yet
You know I got my own convictions
And they're stronger than any addiction
But no one's winning
[Chorus]
Tell me how to feel about you now
Tell me how to feel about you now
Oh, let me know
Do I suffocate or let go?
Tell me how to feel about you now
Tell me how to feel about you now
Oh, let me know
Do I suffocate or let go?
[Bridge]
Keep me up with your silence
Take me down with your quiet
Of all the weapons you fight with
Your silence is the most violent
[Chorus]
Tell me how to feel about you now
Tell me how to feel about you now
Oh, let me know
Do I suffocate or let go?
Tell me how to feel about you now
Tell me how to feel about you now
Oh, let me know
Do I suffocate or let go?
[Outro]
You don't have to tell me if you ever think of me
I know you see me dancing wildly in the fog of your memory
You don't have to tell me, I can still believe

Hayley: I had a lot of feelings about just losing people. When you die does it matter who’s fault something was? Everything did feel life or death while we were writing this record. Everything mattered and was significant, every feeling. This one had all these different heavy thoughts strung togethe...
