Use Somebody

Paramore · Other Songs - Paramore

I've been roaming around

Always looking down at all I see

Painted faces fill the places I can't reach



You know that I could use somebody

You know that I could use somebody



Someone like you

And all you know

And how you speak

Countless lovers undercover of the street



You know that I could use somebody

You know that I could use somebody

Someone like you



Off in the night

While you live it up I'm off to sleep

Waging wars to shape the poet and the beat



I hope it's gonna make you notice

I hope it's gonna make you notice



Someone like me

Someone like me

Someone like me

Somebody



Someone like you

Somebody

Someone like you

Somebody

Someone like you

Somebody



I've been roaming around

Always looking down at all I see

Use Somebody

Paramore's "Use Somebody" stands as a defining track of the pop-punk and alternative rock era, blending high-energy instrumentation with introspective lyrics. Released as a single from their 2013 album *Paramore*, the song features a driving rhythm section and soaring vocals that characterize the band's evolution during this period. The track explores themes of ambition and the desire for recognition, resonating with listeners who have experienced the thrill of chasing a dream. Its catchy melody and anthemic quality have cemented its status as a staple in the band's discography, often performed live to energize crowds. The song reflects the broader cultural moment of the early 2010s, where indie rock bands were redefining their sound while maintaining a connection to their punk roots.
