Paramore are retiring their breakthrough single “Misery Business” from their live shows, AltPress reports. The band made the announcement during a performance at the inaugural Paramore Art + Friends festival in their Nashville hometown yesterday. “Tonight we’re playing this song for the last time for a really long time,” frontwoman Hayley Williams explained to the audience. “This is a choice that we’ve made because we feel that we should. We feel like it’s time to move away from it for a little.”

The hit, which originally appeared on their 2007 album Riot!, has been criticized as “anti-feminist” for the lines “Once a whore, you’re nothing more/ I’m sorry that’ll never change.” Williams has opted not to sing those lines at some shows in the past, and she addressed the controversy directly in an interview with Track 7 last year to commemorate the album’s 10th anniversary.

“The thing that annoyed me was that I had already done so much soul-searching about it, years before anyone else had decided there was an issue. When the article began circulating, I sort of had to go and rehash everything in front of everybody,” Williams said. “It was important, however, for me to show humility in that moment. I was a 17 year old kid when I wrote the lyrics in question and if I can somehow exemplify what it means to grow up, get information, and become any shade of ‘woke,’ then that’s a-okay with me.”

Williams went on to explain that the lyrics were ripped directly from a page in her high school diary. “The problem with the lyrics is not that I had an issue with someone I went to school with. That’s just high school and friendships and breakups,” she continued. “It’s the way I tried to call her out using words that didn’t belong in the conversation. It’s the fact that the story was setup inside the context of a competition that didn’t exist over some fantasy romance.”

“I believe I was supposed to have written those backwards words and I was supposed to learn something from them … years later,” she concluded. “It’s made me more compassionate toward other women, who maybe have social anxieties … and toward younger girls who are at this very moment learning to cope and to relate and to connect. We’re all just trying our damnedest. It’s a lot easier when we have support and community with each other. Vulnerability helps lay the foundation for all that.”
