C'est Comme Ça
Burnt out and boring, c'est comme ça 🤷
Who it's for
Paramore captures the deflated, everything-is-the-same feeling after burning out, with a wry sense of humor.

What it is
"C'est Comme Ça" is the third single from Paramore's 2023 album This Is Why; the French title means roughly "that's just how it is." Hayley Williams said the song is about uncertainty over the future and adjusting to stability after years in a survival mindset. It is a bouncy post-punk track delivered largely in a spoken-word style.
