'I don't want people thinking it's a new Paramore song. This is just something I wrote for fun,' the singer says in a blog post.

Last week, during Paramore's "Last Word" interview with MTV News, Hayley Williams promised fans that the band would "definitely" be releasing new music in 2011 ... and, it looks like she meant it. Well, sort of.
On Tuesday, Williams took to her blog to post the chorus of a song called "In the Mourning," a winsome, windswept thing that, while new — and actually pretty great — probably won't be showing up on a Paramore album anytime soon.
"A few weeks ago I posted some new lyrics up on Tumblr. Wanted to share the melody with anyone who's asked me to post it," Williams wrote on her blog. "This is just the chorus ... I didn't want to post the full thing yet because I don't want people thinking it's a new Paramore song. This is just something I wrote for fun. Hope you likes!"
Williams did post the lyrics to "In the Mourning" a few weeks prior, and at the time, fans were speculating that they might be related to one of the new demos guitarist Taylor York had written for the group. Now, it doesn't sound like that's the case, although Williams and Paramore's other remaining members — York and bassist Jeremy Davis — are apparently still writing and demoing new material.
Late last month, just days after it was announced that founding Paramore members Josh and Zac Farro would be leaving the band, Zac posted a demo by his new project, Tunnel.
In February, Paramore will launch a South American tour — their first since the Farro brothers' departure — with York's brother Justin filling in on guitar and veteran stickman Josh Freese on drums.
