[Spoken: Hayley Williams]
See those cellphones and lighters up
Hi!

[Verse 1: Hayley Williams]
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

[Chorus: Hayley Williams]
But darling
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
Oh, you are the only exception
But you are the only exception

[Spoken: Hayley Williams]
That's gorgeous!

[Verse 2: Hayley Williams & Justin York, Hayley Williams]
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
[Chorus: Hayley Williams]
Well, you are the only exception
Oh, You are the only exception
Oh, You are the only exception
Oh, You are the only exception, ah-ha

[Bridge: Hayley Williams]
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
No-oh-oh-oh-whoa

[Chorus: Hayley Williams, Crowd, Justin York]
You are the only exception (Sing it)
You are the only exception
Sing it out, Denver! Woo!
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception (Oh-oh-ah-ah)
You are the only exception (Eh-eh-ah-ah, woo!)
You are the only exception (The only exception)
You are the only exception

[Outro: Hayley Williams, Crowd]
And I'm on my way to believing
Ok, this is your part
And I'm on my way to believing
Yeah!
