"I'm holding onto what I know" -Glowing Eyes "I want to know you" -Trees "I want to be known by you" -Goner "I'll be holding onto you" Holding Onto You
Used to listen to tøp religiously like 5 years ago and I’m having a night where I listen to all the songs I used to be obsessed with makes me feel like I’m 14 all over again
I don't know if there are official interpretations or if Tyler has said anything about the meaning of this song but if not, hear me out. The glowing eyes are (for lack of a better word) demons that Tyler's experiencing. (I know there's been other people saying the glowing eyes represent society and how they're always watching him but this is what I first understood when I first heard this song.) The line "But do I want to say goodbye to all the glowing eyes" really sticks out to me. Speaking from experience, I know that depression is sort of comforting and that sometimes you'd rather stay in the comforting state that you're in, instead of seeking for help and recovering. "I'm holding on to what I know" I have two interpretations of this line, the first being that what he knows there is another way to live, that he hasn't let depression take over him. He's holding onto the idea that he can get better and that he will be happy again and won't let himself drift deep into depression. My second idea is that what he knows is depression and this mental state he's in. And he's holding onto staying where he is. Because recovery is a scary place, so he's holding onto where he's comfortable at. (Not sure if that made any sense). "But I would rather play a song for the eyes to sing along" with this line, I immediately assume the eyes are his demons. Like his doubt is taking over and he would rather play a song that his demons would approve of, that they would know that they're winning the war. Also the line, "While ceiling fans and idle hands will take my life again." I take that ceiling fans either a. is relating to suicide in a way, or b. is the time you spend alone in your room. Upon googling the term "idle hands" I've found out it means "the devil makes work for idle hands". I think this relates to self-harm, as when you've found yourself alone in your room with your thoughts, your demons can slip in and take control. but yeah that's sorta my take on the song. Not sure if any of that made sense or anything. stay alive, frens
We're the glowing eyes.Think about it, he'd rather sing a song for the glowing eyes, our screens, our laptops, our phones, our tablets, make our faces glow as we listen to his music. We're the glowing eyes. He wants to keep singing for us, not to move on for what's waiting at him for the door, because it's the unknown. He's going to keep doing what he wants to do. Sing for the glowing eyes.
While I'd love to believe that, glowing eyes have always been a symbol of evil (darkness, demons, fear, bad thoughts), especially in cartoons. This song is about dissociation and being in denial about the darkness in your head; pretending the familiarity is good. The chorus shows this most: "I know theres someone at the door, they called for help of this I'm sure." This is likely referring to his conscience, telling him these "eyes" are bad for him. "But do I want to say goodbye, to all the glowing eyes?","I'm holding onto what I know, and what I know I must let go." He knows the eyes are bad for him, but they're all he knows and he's too scared to let go of the comfort the familiarity provides, although he knows he should. Kind of like "pretending enemies are frenemies" (mentioned in Kitchen Sink). "But I'll kindly enter into rooms of depression, while ceiling fans and idle hands will take my life again." Again, he knows they're bad for him but he'd rather sit with the familiar depression and lock himself away, staring at the ceiling fan while the thoughts tear him apart.
@@hellfrr I think there is some amount of genuine comfort from "the eyes". He'd rather sing a song the eyes can sing along too. Whether they're entirely good or not the glowing eyes are a part of all of us and there's something to be said about singing a song they can enjoy too. Amazing song and I love how many layers you can take away from it.
*"I know some people who know people who are flying straight."* I wonder if this line relates to how they got their name. They got the name Twenty One Pilots from the play All My Sons by Arthur Miller, for those of you who didn't know, in which a man sells faulty airplane parts during WWII causing the death of twenty-one pilots. If you're flying straight, then you're all good, right? Life is going pretty good, and you have nothing to worry about. But for the pilots who died, they were falling, and they couldn't control the plane. So like they can't control their lives and the ultimate result of things. Edit: Oh my gosh, this got so many likes and I had no idea.😂 I forgot about this.😅 Thanks for liking and replying.😁☺
I just rediscovered this song after about 3 years and I’m tearing up realizing that after all this time I still remember the lyrics. I listened to this song constantly back when I didn’t have a name for what I was feeling but TØP made me feel accepted and understood. Thank you to this community for being such a positive force in my life
bro same. i forgot this song existed. three years ago i was a super edgy pre-teen listening to this all the time. i only forgot about it because its not on spotify 🤷♂️
I had a similar thing happen with ride, when i was younger i heard the song on the radio and i loved it, i just didnt know what it was Then, like 4-5 years later, i had just gotten into tøp, and was listening to Blurryface, and i heard it there, i almost died of happiness
God the accent he uses when he sings, the way he purposely cracks his voice, the lyrics, the melody, tyler everything about this perfect! kudos to ty and josh !!! love ya'll
His intentional voice cracks add to the song but his accidental ones add to the feeling. You know you're getting the real deal and I love the way he starts lots of his songs with a noise like "la di da da, la di da di da"
@@Emoo Because these songs (regional at best songs) are owned by the music label tøp used to work with called Warner Music and they started taking them all down from youtube

@@zephanshell15 the album Regional At Best- it has all these songs on it (well, duh) And don't worry I didn't know what it meant either once upon a time now look at me lol
guys, i thought about this thing. it's weird. so you guys know what tøp songs like these are like. happy music but depressing lyrics. but what if they did this to represent how you don't know what's going on in someone's life? i mean, someone can seem all happy and bubbly, like this song, but it's truly when you pay attention to the little details that the person, or the song, is actually going through some really depressing stuff. that didn't make sense.
It’s been almost a decade since I first heard this song. And the memories that come with it are sweet because they remind me of times I felt understood. Times I knew I wasn’t alone. And times I promised to make it through. You can make it. Don’t stop fighting. The struggle means you’re alive. Stay alive. It will get better. Trust me.
it's kind of funny because my family keeps saying that I listen to TØP for the beat. but its totally different, it's like "family, just listen to the Lyrics"

I just had my first severe panic attack, like I couldn't breathe. So I grabbed my dog, laid down in bed and looked up TOP. When I saw this song, even tho it's been years, I knew it was perfect. It's still the same comfort song it always has been. Every time I hear it I'm reminded of so many memories, good and bad, and I'm so glad I found it again ||-//
Last summer I had anorexia and ended up in a psichiatric hospital, there were more people of my age with mental illines, there was another girl with anorexia, a little boy with esquizophrenia, a boy with depression because of bullying, and more precious people. All of them were different, and all of them had glowing eyes, all of them were pure, and all of us understood each other. We often talked about our parents always tell us that people had always to be right and how them son's friends where all doing good and we all had to do the same. I recovered quickly and I had to go from the hospital, they where my friends and I had to leave them with their problems, I had to say goodbay. But I knew I must let go. For me this beautiful song means this.
It’s interesting looking back. When I first found this song, I was in a much darker place than I am now. I’m still struggling of course but things have definitely gotten easier over the years, especially as I’ve gotten more used to dealing with these things. And these songs and the clique have been there with me all the way, getting me through those dark nights, reminding me that I’m not alone in what I’m going through. And neither are you frens. We’ve made it this far. Together. Thank you all of you for existing 💛💛
used to listen to this back when i was still in highschool barely surviving life, now that I'm looking back on it I'm glad life didn't end for me at 16, thank you ty and jo
I love Regional at Best the most because the songs usually sound so upbeat but the lyrics are terrifying. But Twenty One Pilots is such a good band because it's one less artist that isn't singing about drugs and sex.
Currently having a mental breakdown and listening to Regional at Best songs. I feel like I might pass out or throw up but I’ll scream these songs in my basement at 10:43 pm and I don’t care if my fucking parents yell at me. They caused me to have this break down and I will deal with it the way I need to Thank you for uploading this song and to everyone else who uploads the other songs
Is it just me or do you only really truly know what a Twenty one pilot song says when it's late and your crying or having a breakdown the lyrics just hit different
I remember finding this at the age of 12, when this was first posted. It's still one of my favorite songs by them today. Please keep liking this to bring me back, I can't find it on my usual music platform
coming back to this. was that sort of “smol bean stay alive fren |-/“ type of person, and grew out of that. i miss it, now i that actually understand what depression really is like lol. this brings back kinder memories. fuck it, stay alive! hahaha
I thought I had all of Twenty One Pilots with Blurry Face, Vessel, and the TBS.... BOY WAS I WRONG. I am so glad I found there 'underground' music it's so good!
You guys talk a lot about how happy it sounds for how dark the lyrics are, (I'm probably not the first to say this) but it's probably because depressed people often don't like to show their depression, in fact they seem happy sometimes.
+Cali Latet in be concerned they have a dude who's not in top sing in it. And be concerned is R@B. James and Tyler and close anyway, and iirc they're brothers. Could be thinking of someone else.
I think im overcoming depression Edit august 2019 thank u guys so much for supporting me it really means alot and even tho depression sucks the least we can do is look out for eachother and remind people to stay alive \\-// people will lose alot in life but one thing we will never lose is ourself
Oh my god that's so awesome I'm so happy for you fren congratulations for making it this far we all love you so much and I'm so happy for you! Continue to live on stay strong and most importantly stay alive not just because I want you to but because you need to because you are apart of this world and without you than a piece of this world is gone and we need you 💛
I have a problem with cutting myself and causing myself pain. this band is the only thing that distracts me from reality and Tyler is the only person who heals me from depression
Nothing in this world can make me feel more or make me more nostalgic than songs from this album. I come back here every year or so to cry and think about when I was young this band was getting me into music as a whole. The feeling of finding old Twenty One Pilots songs I had never heard before was magical and it’s kinda sad that I’m used to music now and not an 11 year old being blown away by how music can actually have meaning.
To anyone reading this comment battling depression, suicide, or anxiety remember you can make it through whatever you're going through. Stay alive friends.
Pro tip if you want to save any of these classics *_before they get taken down:_* 1. Click the share button 2. Copy the link 3. Open Google or chrome 4. Look up "UA-cam to mp3" 5. Click any of the first 3 websites, whichever works best for you. I recommend this one: ytmp3.cc/en13/ 6. Paste the link in the text bar 7. Click convert and wait. It shouldn't take very long, but it all depends on your WiFi connection speed. 8. Once its done converting, press download 9. If you use the website I recommended you might get taken to a new tab, don't click on anything but the bottom link where you can see the progress of your download. If you don't get the extra tab or the progress pop up, it's fine that steps optional. 10. You can check to see if it's downloaded in your audio storage through your settings. 11. If it has, you can listen to it through there, google music, or an mp3 player app.
I DEMAND NO PHUN INTENDED AND REGIONAL AT BEST IN SPOTIFY *N O W* Edit: Y'all i said this four years ago and sadly, I'm not waiting anymore. 😔 I love tøps old music, but now I don't like them anymore.
Happens heh. I didn't know about 2 songs from Regional at Best 😄 I was a fan of them since 2015 cuz my teacher was always playing Stressed Out in class 😂
I've been a fan for 2 years yet I know about TB Saga, most of RaB, Trees is my favorite song, and I know a lot of Vessel. I learned most of these songs 2-4 months ago lol oh and I know Coconut Sharks in the Water 😄
Love going through the Depression Loop and returning to all my favorite songs I used to mope to when I was 14. This is a good one. I remember exactly how this made me feel when I first heard it.
same, maybe this is what he really means ? like he plays songs for us to sing along while he knows that we all cry like someone's cutting onions actually even worse but lol the point is that we, the clique, is the glowing eyes?
The Clique is one of the most loving fandoms tbh, except for you know....Each other, at times. "Your favorite song is Stressed Out???!!1!! AAAA!!!!1" Not saying the whole Clique is like this....A few people I've seen. I love Stressed Out, but my favorite song is Glowing Eyes because....Josh....And Johnny Boy because I relate to it.
I love Glowing Eyes and Johnny Boy too! My other favorite is Friend Please! I remember the first song I heard by TØP was Tear In My Heart, and then Stressed Out. I hate how some fans hate Stressed Out just because it's popular! It's still an amazing, and meaningful song! |-/
it's been four years since i last listened to this song. the nostalgia is real. and, let's just say i'm in a WAY better place than where i was when i first discovered twenty one pilots
There's a great app called NowTube and it has all of their songs. It's free too, and there's youtube videos on there too, like this one, and no audio ads. I love it, i've deleted spotify
Tyler's voice helps me escape the reality I live in. But when the music stops, the darkness closes in, little by little until the darkness completely consumes me. Music is my only light.
The Last Crybaby Pilot At The Chemical Disco! I feel the same way. My "friends" are starting to bully me for listening to music so often. Today my "friend" pushed my onto the floor really hard and my knee was badly hurt. I'm so sick of these people and school I just want to end my life now. I am hurting so badly but I don't show anyone. Anyway if you need someone to talk to I'm right here. I'll listen and respond.
*hears cute background music* aw this sounds like a happy song *depressing and terrifying words come out* *is actually crying* why am i relating to this.
do you ever get that feeling of being hit by a thousand bricks because you finally understand a song and realize you relate a little too much? because i just got that with this song and its my favorite and now i know why.
I watched and animation of friend please by "sassy skeleton" and it was beautiful. It helped me to understand the lyrics and I cried the second time watching it. I highly recommend it to anyone suicidal. And everyone else to. It's really good.
I’m crying because this band made my child hood, because my dad introduced them to me and he also allowed me to play drums and I played there songs. Six years later I’m just listening to them and it makes me feel good 😌.
no because they made me too self aware at a young age which resulted in my severe depression. thankfully I am recovered, and love listening to their music for plain enjoyment!

in the beginning, i totally also thought the glowing eyes were "demons". I feel like their songs can be interpreted in so many ways!
I actually really like this interpretation.

I think this is a great interpretation of what is being said

Serious question - and maybe im just stupid - but what is RAB? Its all over the place in these comments and im clueless
@@zephanshell15 the album Regional At Best- it has all these songs on it (well, duh)
And don't worry I didn't know what it meant either once upon a time now look at me lol
Ah, thanks
*MAKE THEM STOP* (Taking it down)
guys, i thought about this thing. it's weird.
so you guys know what tøp songs like these are like. happy music but depressing lyrics. but what if they did this to represent how you don't know what's going on in someone's life? i mean, someone can seem all happy and bubbly, like this song, but it's truly when you pay attention to the little details that the person, or the song, is actually going through some really depressing stuff.
that didn't make sense.
val I-/ that makes so much sense!!
val I-/ that makes sense to me
That makes a lot of sense to me
If you listen to 'Not today' at 00:41 Tyler himself points exactly this out :DDDD
It actually did
I love how happy the song sounds, but then you pay attention to the _lyrics_

It’s been almost a decade since I first heard this song. And the memories that come with it are sweet because they remind me of times I felt understood. Times I knew I wasn’t alone. And times I promised to make it through.
You can make it. Don’t stop fighting. The struggle means you’re alive. Stay alive. It will get better. Trust me.
it's kind of funny because my family keeps saying that I listen to TØP for the beat. but its totally different, it's like "family, just listen to the Lyrics"

I used to listen to twenty one pilots like 5 years ago and this is the song that gives me the most nostalgia and it’s still a banger
I just had my first severe panic attack, like I couldn't breathe. So I grabbed my dog, laid down in bed and looked up TOP. When I saw this song, even tho it's been years, I knew it was perfect. It's still the same comfort song it always has been.
Every time I hear it I'm reminded of so many memories, good and bad, and I'm so glad I found it again

tbh, im not even depressed i just like twenty one pilots with a passion
I liked them before my life became garbage...
But now that it is, they make me happier.

Last summer I had anorexia and ended up in a psichiatric hospital, there were more people of my age with mental illines, there was another girl with anorexia, a little boy with esquizophrenia, a boy with depression because of bullying, and more precious people. All of them were different, and all of them had glowing eyes, all of them were pure, and all of us understood each other. We often talked about our parents always tell us that people had always to be right and how them son's friends where all doing good and we all had to do the same. I recovered quickly and I had to go from the hospital, they where my friends and I had to leave them with their problems, I had to say goodbay. But I knew I must let go.
For me this beautiful song means this.
greenteaqueen 2002 I also had anorexia and was sent to a psychiatric hospital last year and part of this year, and I relate to everything you said
You talk a lot
@@jaz6332 Don't be rude
greenteaqueen 2002 are you doing better now?
I also had to go to a psychriatric hospital last year, and everything you said was so accurate. They were all wonderful people in their own way
It’s interesting looking back. When I first found this song, I was in a much darker place than I am now. I’m still struggling of course but things have definitely gotten easier over the years, especially as I’ve gotten more used to dealing with these things. And these songs and the clique have been there with me all the way, getting me through those dark nights, reminding me that I’m not alone in what I’m going through. And neither are you frens. We’ve made it this far. Together. Thank you all of you for existing 💛💛
If they take this down I swear to God I'm going to have a breakdown
Screen record it
Still here :)

How one mans screaming can be so peaceful and another mans "oh's" can be so meaningful is incredible
used to listen to this back when i was still in highschool barely surviving life, now that I'm looking back on it I'm glad life didn't end for me at 16, thank you ty and jo
I really hope that they can play this song live in this new era, it just makes so much sense with Dema and all the stuff that's happening with Clancy.
Jesus this song is so fucking depressing yet sounds like something you'd hear on Teletubbies
I love it
This is the best comment I've read in a long time

I love Regional at Best the most because the songs usually sound so upbeat but the lyrics are terrifying.
But Twenty One Pilots is such a good band because it's one less artist that isn't singing about drugs and sex.

Currently having a mental breakdown and listening to Regional at Best songs. I feel like I might pass out or throw up but I’ll scream these songs in my basement at 10:43 pm and I don’t care if my fucking parents yell at me. They caused me to have this break down and I will deal with it the way I need to
Thank you for uploading this song and to everyone else who uploads the other songs
Yooo omg total mood 10.10pm
Hope you're better, fren :) I bet times are tough, but I promise you'll get through it

my question is...
HOW IN THE WORLD DO THEY MAKE THIS SOUND SO BUBBLY BUT IN REALITY, IT'S DEPRESSING AF?!!!
Lmao
Because it's TØP and their exists people in this world who can do that.
I thought you were going to say "where are the other 19 pilots"
That's is why I listen to tøp it it sounds happy but its actually depressing
They make it sound like a real person
I remember finding this at the age of 12, when this was first posted. It's still one of my favorite songs by them today. Please keep liking this to bring me back, I can't find it on my usual music platform
coming back to this. was that sort of “smol bean stay alive fren |-/“ type of person, and grew out of that. i miss it, now i that actually understand what depression really is like lol. this brings back kinder memories. fuck it, stay alive! hahaha
i feel exactly the same
same- top def changed my life in a unique way and the whole |-/ phase is weirdly nostalgic now that i am where i am
I thought I had all of Twenty One Pilots with Blurry Face, Vessel, and the TBS.... BOY WAS I WRONG. I am so glad I found there 'underground' music it's so good!
Sadly it's not on iTunes
*single tear* 💧
The albums are Twenty One Pilots, Regional at Best, Vessel, Blurryface. In that order too. l-/ l-/ l-/ l-/ l-/

yassssss. Its definetly nice to hear the oldie songs from them
You guys talk a lot about how happy it sounds for how dark the lyrics are, (I'm probably not the first to say this) but it's probably because depressed people often don't like to show their depression, in fact they seem happy sometimes.
Unfortunetly, infront of others they always seem happy. Usually depressed ones will seem too happy.
AM I SECRETLY DEPRESSED?????

Stay strong ❤️
I believe in you, fren. Stay alive. 💜
We love you, stay alive fren ❤️
Nothing in this world can make me feel more or make me more nostalgic than songs from this album. I come back here every year or so to cry and think about when I was young this band was getting me into music as a whole. The feeling of finding old Twenty One Pilots songs I had never heard before was magical and it’s kinda sad that I’m used to music now and not an 11 year old being blown away by how music can actually have meaning.
I really hope that they can release this. I don't care when, they just need it released.
It was actually a bonus track on the UK version of vessel
This song was released on their album Regional at Best.
I think they meant under a label
+Chamalien Computers Oh okay, my bad.
it's on the UK version of vessel,sometimes I'm so happy to live in the UK,it's got this,forest,lovely and kitchen sink

Pro tip if you want to save any of these classics *_before they get taken down:_*
1. Click the share button
2. Copy the link
3. Open Google or chrome
4. Look up "UA-cam to mp3"
5. Click any of the first 3 websites, whichever works best for you. I recommend this one: ytmp3.cc/en13/
6. Paste the link in the text bar
7. Click convert and wait. It shouldn't take very long, but it all depends on your WiFi connection speed.
8. Once its done converting, press download
9. If you use the website I recommended you might get taken to a new tab, don't click on anything but the bottom link where you can see the progress of your download. If you don't get the extra tab or the progress pop up, it's fine that steps optional.
10. You can check to see if it's downloaded in your audio storage through your settings.
11. If it has, you can listen to it through there, google music, or an mp3 player app.
Your a God.

There's a great app called NowTube and it has all of their songs. It's free too, and there's youtube videos on there too, like this one, and no audio ads. I love it, i've deleted spotify
Tyler's voice helps me escape the reality I live in. But when the music stops, the darkness closes in, little by little until the darkness completely consumes me. Music is my only light.
The Last Crybaby Pilot At The Chemical Disco! I feel the same way. My "friends" are starting to bully me for listening to music so often. Today my "friend" pushed my onto the floor really hard and my knee was badly hurt. I'm so sick of these people and school I just want to end my life now. I am hurting so badly but I don't show anyone. Anyway if you need someone to talk to I'm right here. I'll listen and respond.

It happened to me with migraine. I started crying...
I watched and animation of friend please by "sassy skeleton" and it was beautiful. It helped me to understand the lyrics and I cried the second time watching it. I highly recommend it to anyone suicidal. And everyone else to. It's really good.
I’m crying because this band made my child hood, because my dad introduced them to me and he also allowed me to play drums and I played there songs. Six years later I’m just listening to them and it makes me feel good 😌.
no because they made me too self aware at a young age which resulted in my severe depression. thankfully I am recovered, and love listening to their music for plain enjoyment!
Definitely the best tøp song by FAR. I love all of their albums, but this just takes the cake!!
