Song Title
Hayley Williams said she "chose the title "Decode" because the song is about the building tension, awkwardness, anger and confusion between Bella and Edward. Bella's mind is the only one which Edward can't read and I feel like that's a big part of the first book and one of the obstacles for them to overcome. It's one added tension that makes the story even better."

The official music video premiered on November 3, 2008 on MTVu, MTV, MTV2 and on MTV.com and was directed by Shane Paramore with Shane Drake on set. Drake.

LyricsEdit
How can I decide what’s right When you’re clouding up my mind? I can’t win your losing fight

All the time.

Not gonna ever own what’s mine

When you’re always taking sides? But you won’t take away my pride. No, not this time. Not this time.

How did we get here? When I used to know you so well. But how did we get here? Well, I think I know.

The truth is hiding in your eyes And it’s hanging on your tongue. Just boiling in my blood. But you think that I can’t see What kind of man that you are, If you’re a man at all. Well, I will figure this one out On my own. (I’m screaming, “I love you so.”) On my own. (My thoughts you can’t decode)

How did we get here? When I used to know you so well, yeah. But how did we get here? Well, I think I know.

Do you see what we’ve done? We’ve gone and made such fools Of ourselves. Do you see what we’ve done? We’ve gone and made such fools Of ourselves.

Yeah.Yeah.

How did we get here? When I used to know you so well, yeah, yeah. How did we get here? Well, I used to know you so well. I think I know. I think I know.

There is something I see in you. It might kill me. I want it to be true.
