Paramore
Native Tongue

[Verse 1]
How can they say that it's one way
When it's the opposite?
How can they know the end of the story
Before I tell it?
'Cause when I walk, your feet, they fall
To the same beat
Or maybe we're from two different worlds
But we got our own language

[Pre-Chorus]
We talk to people, but they never understand
They think we're crazy 'cause it sounds like noise

[Chorus]
When we're speaking in our native
Speaking in our native tongue
We're speaking in our native
Speaking in our native tongue

[Verse 2]
We used to live like we were strangers
We didn't know any better
We didn't fit in with the out crowd
So we gave in and we shut our mouths
But, oh, I love your history
And I can take it
And when you talk in code to me
I can translate it
[Pre-Chorus]
We talk to people, but they never understand
They think we're crazy 'cause it sounds like noise to them
Ain't it strange all the things you hear
When you sit and listen?

[Chorus]
We're speaking in our native
Speaking in our native tongue
We're speaking in our native
Speaking in our native tongue
And all this time, I've been wasting my breath
Just wasting my words on everyone else
Now I'm speaking in my native
Speaking in my native tongue

[Bridge]
So come on
Talk it out
So come on
Talk it out
So come on and talk, talk, talk, talk, talk
Talk it out, your voice, it brought me back from the dead (Somehow)
So come on and talk, talk, talk, talk, talk
Talk it out, out, out, out
[Chorus]
Speaking in our native
Speaking in our native tongue
We're speaking in our native
Speaking in our native tongue (You know I speak in my native)
And all this time, I've been wasting my breath
Just wasting my words on everyone else (You know I speak in my native)
Now I'm speaking in my native
Speaking in my native tongue
