Interlude: I'm Not Angry Anymore
Paramore Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Well, sometimes I am
I don't think badly of you
Well, sometimes I do
It depends on the day
The extend of all my worthless rage
I'm not angry anymore
I'm not bitter anymore
I'm syrupy sweet
I rot your teeth down to the core
If I'm really happy
It depends on the day
If I wake up in a giddy haze
Well I'm not angry
I'm not totally angry
I'm not all that angry anymore
The song "I'm Not Angry Anymore" by Paramore is a reflection of the emotional turmoil one experiences after a break-up. The lyrical content portrays a sense of conflicting emotions that the singer is struggling to cope with. The phrase "I'm not angry anymore" is repeated throughout the song, but it is often followed by the contradictory statement "Well, sometimes I am." This suggests that the singer is trying hard to move on, but the emotions are still raw and ever-changing.
The lyrics also illustrate how the emotions are not just limited to anger but also bitterness, sweetness, and happiness. The singer is trying to portray a facade of sweetness and happiness, but it is evident that the bitterness and anger are still present. The lines "I rot your teeth down to the core" symbolize that even the facade of the sweetness is fatal, just like a tooth decay.
The song conveys the message that the journey of healing and moving on is not straightforward, and the emotions are not black and white. It is a gradual process that takes time and patience, and involves ups and downs.
