Paramore: Crushcrushcrush Meaning

Song Released: 2007

Crushcrushcrush Lyrics

I got a lot to say to you
Yeah, I got a lot to say
I noticed your eyes are always glued to me
Keeping them here
And it makes no sense at all

They taped over your mouth
Scribbled out the truth with their lies
Your little spies
They taped...

   I think it's about an unpopular girl (who would take place of Hayley singing) liking a popular guy. They want to be together, but the restrictions of the school 'law', so to speak, is keeping them from being more than friends, if they could be friends at all. When they start to hang out, a person from the popular group starts to tell the popular guy nasty and untrue rumours about the unpopular girl, the unpopular girl not knowing. When the guy doesn't hang out with her, she finds out why... and then she tries to tell him that the rumours about her weren't true at all.

   In Kerrang magasine Hayley said 'CrushCrushCrush', 'Is about having this crush and you're feeling all these things and not getting anything back - and you feel like there are people working against youto prevent things from happening.'

   The song is about a person who has a crush on someone and wants them to get to know each other, what better way than a quiet evening alone, but they never have the guts to ask the person they have a crush on if they want to get together (that never happens I must be dreaming again)

   It's all about truth at the plan sight hiding to us, they are lying everything to just believe that we are living in a cartoon ball but the horizon never curved the earth is flat not a globe but the person speaks about the truth are mocked make them like a clown like no one to believe . The bible tells the truth and self evidence using like telescope we see at there symbolic video clips . Nice song.

   i think its about some one who loves this person who everyone lies about and it makes her own beliefs confusing and she doesn't know what to believe which makes her still love this person, but she doesn't want to love them.

   I think it's about two people and one clearly likes the other but the other is on the fence. "I've got a lot to say to you" She wants to talk to him about what's going on so she can figure it out. "eyes are always glued to me" She knows he likes her "They taped over your mouth scribbled out the truth with their lies" She's hearing stories about how all the girls like him and it's showing her he's really a player. Crushcrushcrush - He likes her, she kinda likes him, everyone likes him. "Nothing compares to a quiet evening alone" Life was better without all the drama. "Let's be more than this" She wants him but she doesn't want all the girls to want him. "You wanna play it like a game" Once he knows she likes him he flirts back with the other girls and goes back to his original ways. "Let's play" - Two can play at the game. "Let's be more than this" - She wants them to get past playing each other and get together.

   I think this song is about a girl who falls in love with a boy who is older than her and out of her leauge but he loves her back and she can't figure out why he's mad about her - "I've noticed your eyes are always glued to me, keeping them here and it makes no sense at all."

   Well, Paramore said in an interview (which is in an magazine I forogt the name of) that it is the opposite song of Decoy.
   
   CrushCrushCrush is about "her" being in love with someone, who doesn't really love her, just play with her. But she doesn't care, she plays his game too ("if you wanna play it like a game, well come on, come on let´s play"), cause "she rather waste her life pretending, than have to forget him for one whole minute"

    I think this song is about liking someone who is taken but loves you instead and his significant other is covering what he really wants to say and make it sound like he wants his gf and not the other girl. Its telling the guy you like him and its obviuos he likes you but is hiding it. And she wants to be more than friends

    I think that the song was very awesome cause this song really learns me that being with a person rather they are popular or not they should show you that the guy will love you no matter what and having a crush with someone can be a cool thing but just getting to knowing the person will show the guy that you are a really great person to him so just take it slow and just live your life!

    I really relate to this song , to tell the truth I am a extremely unpopular girl that has a crush on a guy that's popular... and every time I listen to that song I somehow imagine that I know him and the first time I saw him I looked 4 this song coz it's how I felt/feel when I see him.

    First of all this song is about a stalker. She is wondering why a weirdo is watching her. They kidnapped her, and taped her mouth. and she feels ashamed and doesn't want to tell anyone, and they have spies watching her also. So she really can't tell about her kidnapping. It started out as a crush but then turned to kidnapping. during her quiet evening her stalker dreamt bout being more than wat they were, and she expected to be kidnapped. This one has me stumped. It's pretty tricky.

    I think it's about someone who is in love with someone
    and then they start seeing a different side to that person that they don't like.
    so they say that "they scribbled out the truth with their lies, you little spies"
    but really the speaker just doesn't like what is being said and
    would like to keep the image of the other person the same.

    It's about sex.
    
    "Nothing compares to a quiet evening alone
    Just the one, two I was just counting on
    That never happened
    I guess I'm dreaming again
    Let's be more than this"
    
    one obviously wants time alone with the other.. and is not getting it. and they want to be "more"
    
    
    Rock and roll, baby
    Don't you know that we're all alone now?
    I need something to sing about
    Rock and roll, hey
    Don't you know, baby, we're all alone now?
    I need something to sing about
    Rock and roll, hey
    Don't you know, baby, we're all alone now?
    Give me something to sing about
    
    
    
    one is telling the other that theyre alone now.. They can basically do whatever.. and s/he needs something to sing about.. sing = moaning a.k.a orgasm.

    Well I think the first guy is right about the first part but the
    
    They taped over your mouth
    Scribbled out the truth with their lies
    You little spies
    They taped over your mouth
    Scribbled out the truth with their lies
    You little spies
    ^this is about the other person denying it
    
    ^i think this is about other people spreading rummors, and keeping the two from being together

    I think the song is about a person having a crush on the other person like the 1st person says and the other person is just all freaked out and denying it.
