MERAHPUTIH.COM - LAGU-lagu milik Paramore masih mencuri perhatian pengguna TikTok dan muncul dalam berbagai konten FYP. Salah satu karya mereka yang kembali banyak diperbincangkan yakni The Only Exception, lagu ikonis yang pertama kali dirilis pada 2009.
Lagu ini mengisahkan seseorang yang memiliki ketakutan mendalam untuk menjalin hubungan asmara akibat pengalaman masa lalu. Trauma tersebut terbentuk sejak ia menyaksikan hubungan kedua orangtuanya mengalami keretakan, termasuk melihat kesedihan yang dirasakan sang ayah. Pengalaman itu membuatnya sulit mempercayai cinta dan meragukan kemungkinan sebuah hubungan dapat bertahan lama.

Lirik lengkap 'The Only Exception' dari Paramore
When I was younger, I saw
My daddy cry, and curse at the wind
He broke his own heart and I watched
As he tried to reassemble it
And my momma swore that she would
Never let herself forget
And that was the day that I promised
I'd never sing of love if it does not exist
But darling, you are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
Maybe I know somewhere
Deep in my soul, that love never lasts
And we've got to find other ways
To make it alone or keep a straight face
And I've always lived like this
Keeping a comfortable distance
And up until now, I had sworn to myself
That I'm content with loneliness
Because none of it was ever worth the risk
Well, you are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
I've got a tight grip on reality
But I can't let go of what's in front of me here
I know you're leaving in the morning when you wake up
Leave me with some kind of proof it's not a dream, oh
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
And I'm on my way to believing
Oh, and I'm on my way to believing.(Far)
