Hayley Williams was feeling divinely inspired while working on Paramore's early music.

The 36-year-old Petals for Armor musician recently spoke with Vulture about the early days writing music with her bandmates as young artists and revealed the very first song they wrote together that ended up on their 2005 debut album, per Louder.

After sharing the first song she wrote by herself — "At Night" which was "the most dramatic thing you can imagine" — she said that the first track she penned with her bandmates was "Conspiracy," featured on Paramore's first album All We Know Is Falling.

"I came to band practice with them and we did not know there was going to be a song at the end of the day," she said. "I had a poem that I brought written on a sheet of paper and they had music and it was sick. It sounded like Thursday's 'Standing on the Edge of Summer' or 'Understanding in a Car Crash.' I was like, this is heaven. And we left that day with our first song."

Elsewhere in the interview, Williams revealed that the first song to make her cry was "Closing Time" by Semisonic, sharing the "distinct memory" she still has of listening to the 1998 track while "staring out the window of my mom's car."

"I felt really like it just got to me. Still could," she said. "End of a school day, I can still remember the street we were on in Meridian [her hometown in Mississippi], coming home from school and just being like, 'I don't want my mom to see me crying.' And I don't think that was even because it was 'Closing Time.' I was trying to be tough. That song just will do it to you."
