In this energetic track, Paramore explores themes of stagnation and personal responsibility. The lyrics narrate the frustration of watching someone you know remain stuck in their ways, unable to progress or change despite the passage of time. The repeated refrain "I've got no time for feeling sorry" underscores a decisive break from empathy towards a focus on self-advancement and moving forward. The song reflects a realization that waiting for others who are unwilling to help themselves is futile, emphasizing the importance of self-growth and not being dragged down by others' inaction. This assertive anthem serves as a call to prioritize one's own journey and ambitions over lingering in unproductive sympathy for those who choose not to change.
Feeling Sorry
Lyrics
We still live in the same town, well, don't we?
But I don't see you around anymore
I go to all the same places, not even a trace of you
Your days are numbered at twenty four
And as I'm getting bored waiting 'round for you
We're not getting any younger, and I
Won't look back 'cause there's no use
It's time to move forward
I feel no sympathy
You live inside a cave
You barely get by, the rest of us are trying
There's no need to apologize
I've got no time for feeling sorry
Well, I tried not to think of what might happen
When your reality, it finally cuts through
Well, as for me, I got out and I'm on the road
The worst part is that this (this), this could be you
You know it too, you can't run from your shame
You're not getting any younger, time
Keeps passing by, but you waited awake
It's time to roll over
I feel no sympathy
You live inside a cave
You barely get by, the rest of us are trying
There's no need to apologize
I've got no time for feeling sorry
And all the best lies
They are told with fingers tied
So cross them tight
Won't you promise me tonight
If it's the last thing you do, you'll get out
I feel no sympathy
You live inside a cave
You barely get by the rest of us are trying
There's no need to apologize
I've got no time, I've got no time
I feel no sympathy
You live inside a cave
You barely get by the rest of us are trying
There's no need to apologize
Got no time
I've got no time for feeling sorry
I've got no time for feeling sorry
