LYRICS
I don’t wanna…
Rat race, place to place, adding weight,
Tendencies on repeat, innit,
Benefit from a shoe with no lace,
Take the seat with the crease in it,
I don’t mind if it’s lonely, I don’t mind if it’s fair,
I don’t care, you control me,
Leading me anywhere.
I don’t wanna backslide to where I started from,
There’s no chance I will shake this again,
’Cause I feel the pull, water’s over my head,
Strength enough for one more time,
Reach my hand above the tide,
I’ll take anything you have,
If you could throw me a line,
I should’ve loved you better,
Do you think that now’s the time
You should let go?
It's over my head.
Bad place on a hundred dollar bass,
Kind of wishing that I never did Saturday,
Is that a stain? You should change.
Are you doing good? Did you solve all of your problems?
Thanks for asking, in a way but,
Accidentally uncovered a new one yesterday,
What happened to what I brushed under the rug,
I used to be the champion of a world you can’t see,
Now I’m drowning in logistics.

Josh you should direct.
Josh: let’s throw water, leaves and debris at Tyler
My parents said if I hit 2k they'd buy me a professional camera begging you guys literally begging !!!..
Revenge for all his burnt/destroyed drums lmaooo
Revenge!
REAL
Underrated comment
josh: bro what takes you so long?
tyler: you wouldn't believe me

"It might seem crazy what I'm boutta say"
Jajajajajajaja
@@Najeeb10003 🤖
youuu… are taking soooo long… san franciscooo~
The role Josh decided to give himself in this video says a lot about his beautiful soul. Very nice video Josh! :)
what it says, that he likes to cook burguers?
@@gfg51 that he is a patient person maybe
he just wants to grill, for gods sake
Bicycle too small for him.
I don't wanna get ahead of myself and say this is my favorite of the Clancy singles... but this is my favorite of the Clancy singles
Definitely my favourite it's just so different
They all are but this one makes me emotional as hell. I hate going back to dark places
@@ashton3757 21 pilots is like the light in a dark tunnel
@@ashton3757 yeah the trouble with some of their songs is that they're really helpful if you're in a dark place, but i imagine pretty triggering if you've made it out of that dark place
Overcompensate was great but when next semester came out it topped overcompensate out by a lot, and it happened again with backslide
"Cause I feel the pull" - Backslide 2024
"I can feel the pull begin" -Fall away 2009
I was thinking of why that sounded familiar
Fall Away 2009*
if you look at the wikipedia page for backsliding, it says “also known as falling away” in the first line. the parallels are intentional
fall away 2009*
@@samgraef3028 thanks for catching the typo😭😭 didn't even notice that
I love the depiction of Tyler going through his cycle and storms while Josh patiently waits, dependably flipping the burger!
Omg this is so true though. Like josh is perfectly fine flipping some burgers whilst Tyler is GOING THROUGH IT. Like we could be so unaware of what other people are going through whilst they struggle alone and in silence
Oooo yeah Tyler is actually “cycling”!!
He’s waiting for his fren 🥹
21 inspires me.. My parents said if i get 5K likes on my vid They'd buy me a professional camera for recording..begging u guys , literally
Begging..
Very dependable yes
Tyler is a threat to the environment
As much as it’s likely cleaned after/during filming, I had a similar thought when he threw the plastic lemonade cup on the street😭
Bro that's all I could think of through this damn video lmao
Good news. Any scene you don’t physically see Tyler ride down the street is done in a studio with a screen behind him. So there was no actual littering.
@@parkerking6410 I thought the thing about tøp’s MVs is that they actually do travel to the locations for filming?? Jumpsuit was filmed in Iceland, right. Granted I’m no expert on these things but a fan can dream~
The chorus I can understand, he’s in complete darkness before the storm, I can see that as a likely greenroom- these outside shots? Yes it’s easy to get the moving background by filming from a trunk, but it’s hard to determine unless specified.
I have no more thoughts left for this comment, thanks for coming to my Ted Talk
LMFAO
This song specifically means so much to my recovery right now. Some laceless shoes might do me some good, but I’m pushing through it myself instead because I know I’m strong enough. Backslide and Next Semester have honestly described exactly what I’ve been going through lately, and it means more to me than Tyler and Josh will ever know or understand. THANK YOU GUYS.
wishing you the best on your recovery journey. in a similar place with this song right now but I know it can and will get better
@@kristinab1005 you too :( we’re not alone, and we can get better :)
I relate
You've got this, stay alive friend!
His name's Clancy and he cares what we think.
YES
My parents said if I hit 2k they'd buy me a professional camera begging you guys literally begging !!!..
His name's Clancy and he doesn't care, we control him
I think he should of put that plastic cup on recycling not the road
Clancyface 🤣🤣🤣🤣
This was an excuse for josh to just throw a bunch of leaves at Tyler LMAOOO ❤
That’s what I’m thinking about HAHHAHA
My parents said if I hit 2k they'd buy me a professional camera begging you guys literally begging !!!..
thats literally what I thought 😭
Fairly local pay back
Yes he was getting his revenge from everything he has been put through over the years
I can already sense my summer hitting different with this album..
I love how josh waits so patiently for Tyler to arrive that really is a best friend right there
Dir. Josh Dun
Our life goals are finally complete.
As long as will Smith is in it
Who would’ve thought we’d hear him sing and see him direct too!
Its Will Smiths bike, on loan just for the video@blakeyoder6488
I hope he sings
My parents said if I hit 2k they'd buy me a professional camera begging you guys literally begging !!!
the callback to stressed out was so perfectly executed.
I was thinking that. Great minds think alike
True. Lyrically, a call back to Fall Away though.
My parents said if I hit 2k they'd buy me a professional camera begging you guys literally begging !!!..
I hear blurry in the background of some of the verses too
@@FriedRiceIsGood-sh6io I am about to report you for spamming everyone's replies
As someone who has suffered from depression and anxiety for many years, this song represents to me the retrospective of everything I have gone through, my struggle, and all the times I have relapsed. And knowing that even though today I am in a better place, that thing that lives inside my head will always be there.
It doesn’t have to! I used to live just like that fr…but as u may be able to see in this song, Tyler is talking about this “pull” that takes him out of the deepest waters of darkness. It’s not someone who died for your sins, but someone who died so you could be free. Jesus wants to set us free, if only we love Him (that means, trust Him and try to have a relationship with Him), we will all experience COMPLETE freedom. From someone who attempted suicide before-
It. Is. True. He saves u totally.
@@mercys_fog8482 Thanks! I know that it doesn't have to be like that and like I said I do feel that I'm in a better place now. I liked your explanation of the "pull" it makes more sense the " I should’ve loved you better" line. Reminds of addict with a pen!!
I love how he is just riding around feeding the birds. What a guy!
CLANCY ON THE BIKE
Yeaaah! We got Clancy on that trike!!
Clancy is dead
My theory is that Tyler controlled Clancy and that's why it says he's clancy in the Overcompensate Preview, but in the video at the end the real clancy is shown dead and Tyler letting it go
@@isaacgab1194 Clancy isn’t dead. Clancy has learned the power that the Bishops use to control another body. With Keons and Trash. Likewise, Clancy used a persons body to control himself. Once Clancy was done, the body returned to its original person and state.
Clancy on da bike, where will he go?
im taking my time on my ride
Absolutely a certified hood bike classic

@@Najeeb10003subbed, chase your dreams.
It’s good?
@@keatonkline9403it's a bot
@@Najeeb10003 you dont need one, an old phone is enough
Ugh I love this. Tyler’s fit, the details, Josh just grillin. So good.
This song is an internal monologue of self doubt and perseverance. The buns are coping mechanisms that we attempt to use or disregard right away, because they aren’t helpful enough. At the start of the video we see him throwing away an empty bag and going into the store, which he does again at the end, showing that he’s been in this loop for awhile, “tendencies on repeat” and through the whole ride home he’s having a mental battle thinking I cant let myself go back to my old ways look at all the progress i’ve made i’m not that person anymore, “I don’t want to backslide to where i’ve started from, theres no chance i will shake this again” feeling like theres no way we can survive it. As we grow up and face the same lessons it can be incredibly humiliating, he’s asking himself when he says “do you think that nows the time you should let go? its over my head” he entertains the thought that hes better off dead at this point since hes still struggling so bad, and hes talking to himself when he says “I shouldve loved you better” and “I’ll take anything you have if you could throw me a line” desperate for relief. Then we see him as a child running the lemonade stand, asking himself if hes happy and gotten his life together and hes able to pause for a moment of self reflection and trades coping skills- the bun for a cup of lemonade- which represents something that he loved doing as a child. He heads back out and starts spiraling again, but regardless he doesn’t give up, “strength enough for one more time, reach my hand above the tide” We have to surrender to the storm and all we can do is out best to keep trying, every moment of every day to not succumb. He could give up in defeat that the buns were soggy and destroyed but he turns around and goes back to get more and try again despite it. And lastly we all need people in our circle like Josh who will patiently continue to flip burgers while we get our buns in order, so we can enjoy the bbq of life together. At least thats how I interpreted it. |-/
Damn! 🤯 |-/
I love this!! ❤🧡 |-/
This is amazing bro! 🤝
The best interpretation I’ve read today, love it!
WOW
I can see everyone singing this chorus together, really loud, in a concert.
I can feel it
I can’t wait for that moment
first thing that came to my mind! this chorus needs to be screamed at concerts.
Cannot wait for that!!!!
THIS! The euphoria thats gonna come from it, I need it.
Man every single one of the singles they've released for this album have been drastically different from the next. And that's kind of the case with every TOP album. Every song is so varied and different. It's like unwrapping Christmas gifts.
Lovely discription 💕 that's how I feel too
absolutely why they never get old.
😮 WOW
Like unwrapping Christmas gift. This is it. This is what I tell my friends when they ask me about top
That synth trill at the end of the song is so perfect
Yup it’s very tame impala/foster the people
seriously so obsessed with it
I LOVE how many references he seems to make. He could be talking to God here like he was in addict with a pen, doubling as the person who’s helped him out of darkness before. Wishing he was a better son there, feeling as though god should maybe just let him go now.
“No chance” he’ll make it out again, referring to no chances probably.
The bit about sort of regretting Saturday (even though I thought it was a great song).
Feels the pull like I think it was either fall away or taxi cab on self titled.
Music video is very stressed out-esque.
The boys are COOKING
The switches between the storm and real life representing encroaching intrusive thoughts? Absolutely fantastic. I especially loved the touch of Tyler physically shaking his head to shake himself out of it, the amount of times I've caught myself trying to shake myself out of a spiral really made that one relatable.

@@Najeeb10003are u begging or is this for real I met subscribe if you’re not begging so are u?
NOW WE SHOULD WAIT FOR THE SONG BY HIM
“I used to be a champion of a world you can’t see” I love this line!! It’s so good!!
God is love.
We all fall short and sin.
Love is just and merciful.
Because God is loving He must judge sin, we all stand judged.
Because God is merciful He provided a way out from under the weight of the law and for us to be regenerated.
If we trust Jesus shed His sinless blood, died and rose from the grave He forgives us of our sins and gives us a new heart that wants to look God as our Father genuinely and delight in Him, freeing us from being slaves to sin.
The rest is our mind catching up with that reality and taking hold of His teaching and truth until He returns, or we die.
We aren't saved or kept saved by obedience. We can only be lost through unbelief (trusting in our own righteousness, to be or remain saved) or blasphemy of the Holy Spirit (attributing clear works of God, healing/deliverance, to demons and Satan).
Commandments aren't have to's, they are what we do because we actually want God's direction and It's what fulfills us.
You can't be born again without the desire to honor God. (Works based salvation "Christians" and "lawless Christians" are both wrong.)
We love because God first loved us.
Jesus is God, the Son, "the first and the last", God along with God the Father "the Lord God", this title is mentioned with being tied to God in Isaiah 44:6-8, and that same is sent along with the Lord God's Spirit in Isaiah 48:11-16.
Jesus further claims this title also in Revelation 1:8-17.
Leave catholicism/orthodox/protestant churches that preach strife, or inform them.
it reminds me of forest!!!! “This is not what you're suppose to see
Please, remember me? I am suppose to be
King of a kingdom or swinging on a swing
Something happened to my imagination
This situation's becoming dire”
@@arminabro5164yeah you’re right! It also sounds like a parallel to what he says in bandito, “I created this world to feel some control, I can destroy it if I want”
He means he was and is supposed to be a champion for Christ! Kingdom minded!
Maybe referencing the world around dema?
Deadlift workout music right here 💖 a u t h e n t I c v i e w s💖 dun took Twenty One Pilots oFf 2 da big leagues and fo dat I will always be super grate
“They made me entertain the people. Lie to them” - “Kinda wishin' that I never did "Saturday”
Now I am thankful for him doin saturday so we can have this lyric in this song!!! I dont hate Saturday, i think its a good song but there has to be one right, the least favorite, so to me, this one is
stressed out throwback?
THATS WHAT I WAS THINKING
Same thing I'm thinking as well
Onb
just a fucking reference I think
ITS LITERALLY SO SIMIALR
At the end when Josh is flipping burgers and checking his phone, I imagine him thinking "Where the heck is Tyler? He's late!" 😂
Single Burger 🍔 Le Foreshadowing?
@@misskait4194 You're right, I didn't even notice there was one burger!
wellll. i got some news for you.... that's the point! you're an observational genius!
That’s definitely what he was thinking I bet
@copycatlyn How would you know? You didn't direct it. Josh did. Don't need to be so condenscending. I was just making a funny comment 🙄
It’s the way that none of the songs so far have missed. He’s a genius 😭🙌🏼
If you're reading this, I'm glad we're getting to experience this together. Keep your head up. It gets better.
lemonade stand boy deserves awards for his performance
The way he graciously accepting the bun as a payment? Pro moves
Is it me or do his eyes make him look like a young Tyler?
@@beckylaw123my first thought was that its a deepfake with Tyler's childhood face
@@gabby3406there is a sign underneath the “Lemonade 75c” that says “or one hamburger bun”
That’s what I’m saying! He was so great!
This clip feels like a "Post Mature" Stressed out clip. When you are young and have your problems, you miss childhood and gets stressed with how the world wasn`t what you wanted it yet you pursue your dreams, but this feels like you finally achieved your dream or got over that sad moment of your life...only to realize you still have problems, there are dreams that you couldn`t realize and your heads starts torturing you for it.
this was so well put!
Are you going through that rn? I am.
Love how TOP always find ways of exploring mental health issues, and this video in particular brought me back to the first time I listened to Stress Out
@@foster_fish yeah
Hence the tendency to ‘backslide’ to how you dealt with those issues, except you’ve come out on the other end before, you can catch yourself
I love how the video is circular. At the beginning Tyler is throwing away an empty bag before entering the store just as he does at the end indicating a circular pattern we face in our lives.
I dont know if it's just me, but this feels like such a companion song to Chlorine
The Saturday line 💔💔 SAI, they could never make me hate you
Fr
I love Scaled and Icy. And I think they do too. It marks where they are in time and life. My sign of a good band is growing and developing and changing, not just the same music that worked before. Isn't that what we love about TΦp? The music can't really be defined and changes even in the song?
@@origamikiddo2625 Yup!! That's one thing I loved about SAI. It showed us how versatile tøp are as a band by giving us sounds we weren't expecting
I'm not up to date on the album lores other than the summary video they put out. why would do they not like Saturday?
@@K80Kat the album scaled and icy(SAI) was very different from anything they've done before and the reason for that is because sai is propaganda in the lore. people don't love a lot of the songs because of how different it is and also because it's the most simple sound they've put out, a lot of the songs are very "feel good" including saturday.
The fact that the music video loops back to the beginning at the end is genius. Exactly how backsliding feels, you get so far and experience so much just to start it all again.
edit: holy cow i have never gotten so many likes before thanks so much
And yet there is a slight difference, the man outside has moved so maybe the outside world is changing little by little while you repeat the same things over and over again
im not even think about this, holy crap how i miss that bro
and kinda supports the theory people have that he will replace keons
The store clerk watching him coming back to buy the same thing again and again: 😐
THATS A BIG BRAIN!
These lyrics made me cry. Hits too close to home.
out of all 3 singles that have been released, this is the one that made me cry. don't get me wrong, the other ones are great and i love them, but something about the melodies and lyrics just hits the right spot.
Cannot wait to see the behind the scenes of this, specifically when Tyler was rained on and thrown leaves😆
you know josh was so excited for that
Exactly my response. I'm expecting to see Josh, Debbie, Jenna and the girls throwing leaves at him

This band has meant so much to me throught my life. Im 17 now and started listening to top when i was like 9 or 10, within these years ive had horrible experiences throughout my life and ive starting getting into music and actively playing guitar a year ago. I want to do what they have done for me if not more. I want to create something for others, because its not easy healing from your past and overcoming depression. And i want others to know its okay to keep going and find your inspiration and live on another day to at least try to grow. This band has taught me that. And it feels like more than a band but a family of the wounded, the proud, and the emotional side of people you dont usually see everyday if not at all. I want to create something for everyone and to symbolize their hopes and dreams and to celebrate them, to celebrate the people who are here with us today and still getting through whatever it is they're going through. We all can change and grow even when it seems impossible. I hope to follow this dream and to help others who are struggling and give them something to believe in whilst searching for their own life they would like to live. Truly thank you Tyler and Josh, for saving my life and many others across the globe. Your music and speeches have truly inspired me to continue to grow and live on with my life and i am forever grateful. I too want to create a story for people who seem lost and help them find a way out from the darkness that cosumes majority of the population. I love you guys and i love all of you, twenty one pilots. Stay alive everyone, it's worth it.
I love this album so far- There's just something about it that reminds me so much of their older music but with that new twist to it, and with the callbacks to older lyrics mixed into their new songs blows me away.
The man that has saved millions of lives is cooking a burger carefree ❤
AS HE SHOULD! Man deserves that burger and happiness
My parents said if I hit 2k they'd buy me a professional camera begging you guys literally begging !!!..
One burger to rule then all. But the buns were wet :(
Cooking one burger for his Fren.
I think that's my favourite part of the video ngl
The cycle
The references
The lore
IM SO HAPPY TO BE ALIVE FOR THIS THANK YOU
Happy you’re here, Ms. Emily. Thx for being alive and Our Kind.
Thank you for staying
I love you all, thank you for staying alive
Not happy for cycle
i've been waiting for a song that justified that "back to trench" line. this is definitely it. I can't stop listening to it.
"I don't wanna backslide to where I started from. There's no chance I will shake this again " when I tell you I was IN TEARS by the time the chorus hit
The chorus is INSANE
It made me cry, don't really know why
It hit home honestly
Can’t wait to sing it with you all 🥹🥲
insane is one way id put it i guess.,,
Josh cooked! Literally and figuratively
YEAAAH HE DID
My parents said if I hit 2k they'd buy me a professional camera begging you guys literally begging !!!..
AND WE ATE!❤
HE ATE!
This made me giggle too bad
Can’t help but think if Clancy the character is Tyler representing his younger self in this album. A lot of throwbacks to past experiences so far
I'M SO HAPPY TO BE ALIVE!!!

My ex gf left me when I was admitted to psychiatric care, partially bc i couldnt say that I loved her - yet.
When i heard the chorus, I was sobbing because it really hit home. It was so relieving to - even for a short moment - get rid of the feelings of guilt i'm still carrying with me to this day because of this.
Thank you for this moment and helping me on my way to connect with my emotions I wasnt allowed to feel as a kid 🖤🖤🖤

I keep coming back and the song hurts a little bit more each time.
I love it so much ❤
I love how tylers lyrics can be interpreted in so many ways.
It's called being lukewarm
Sameeee
🔥🔥🔥
@@keithdfox2I don’t know I disagree with this. I think they make music to be interpreted and if you really look into the lyrics they have Christian meaning but he doesn’t want to be in peoples face with it.
the way tyler writes songs.. i love how he always does a build up towards the middle/end, i love this band sm
The video kinda shows the backslide, the beginning is the same as the end, it's like he already went back to the store a lot of the times to buy bread cuz he keeps getting wet. Josh did a masterpiece here !
it’s almost like that’s the point!
I love how Josh just standing there and making dinner for them while Tyler failing easiest part of job. Guess that’s why Josh the one who does everything in mv
Breaking any barrier, the monotony that is reflected in the stages of this album is incredible, reminding us of the beginning of the band.

"Kind of wishing that I never did Saturday" 💔
no man, Saturday doesn't deserve this 😭
My kids and I love Saturday. Honesty scaled and icy is not bad. I love all the albums of T0P.
I mean it’s one of their weakest songs tbh lol
To be fair it's not one of my most favorite songs of theirs 🤷🏻♀️
SAI is propaganda
@@kingnyx1439 totally agree! Each album holds a special place in my heart ☺️
I am absolutely in love with this song. Classic 21 Pilots
every twenty one pilots song is amazing. if you don’t think that your opinion is wrong
Can't tell you exactly why it strikes me.. but in Stressed Out he is "lower" because of the tricycle and he is wearing the red beanie, red backpack, and has red under his clothes. NOW in Backslide he is riding high with no red on his clothes, but he is using the red bicycle to get around.
I am sure the symbolism goes much farther, but I wanted to add that to the conversation.
(Not to mention the yellow stripes on the lemonade stand probably representing stopping by the banditos along his journey)
I feel like him being back on the bike in that neighbourhood is maybe symbolic of him "backsliding" into that dark headspace and time period. He's older now, the bike has changed shape but its the same red and the same struggles swept "under the rug" that are coming back
"I'm higher when I'm heavy"
this 14 second clip gives me life
100th like

Ok
ok.
Same honestly
This has vibes of JT and JayZ with the 20/20 Experience. Highly underrated album and I’m LIVING for it
TØP never ceases! This is already one of my favorites of all time. How? How do they keep outdoing themselves?
The boys are back on their bikes
My parents said if I hit 2k they'd buy me a professional camera begging you guys literally begging !!!
@@Najeeb10003create something and see if people dig it.
I love that we have the cherry blossoms on the trees, such a specific moment in time and places in US. The cherry trees are blossoming right now where i live and it makes me feel so connected to these boys and their songs and you all
Those may in fact be Cleveland Select - Pear Blossoms that are invasive, though beautiful; widely discussed heh - but I vibe on the feeling connected through subtle beauty in every season of cinematography and I adore their care and reciprocity in every production efforts.
tyler you are great at what you do. please do not forget this. we truly appreciate what you do
This song and MV is affecting me at a level my mind doesn't comprehend. I can't explain it but I fully understand it.
"DIRECTED BY JOSH DUN" AAAHHH SO PROUD JOSH
JOSH DRUMS ON THE DUNS
My parents said if I hit 2k they'd buy me a professional camera begging you guys literally begging !!!.
@@Najeeb10003 That is so 2012 lol
so he's hitting his family with sticks 😂
Gawd, I cannot wait for the album release and concert!! I’ve listened to this 10x at work already today.
"Next Semester" and "Backslide" mean a lot to me in terms of lyrical content. Hope that everyone who reads this is doing great!
this kinda flashbacks to stressed out, ride, choker, chlorine, trees/forest (?), slowtown, plus dema lore. at the same time it's also foreshadowing something new. that's one of the things I love about tøp: they spin their past masterpieces and their newer art together perfectly.
ps. we NEED more josh dun directed videos. this is ICONIC
My parents said if I hit 2k they'd buy me a professional camera begging you guys literally begging !!!..
@@Najeeb10003shut uppppp
This just instantly became my favourite song of all time, they’ve completely outdone themselves
Same- and I thought Next Semester and Addict with a Pen were my favorites…
The rain only exists in his head, but it still affects the outside world, as the burger buns are soggy at the end. I think this is symbolism for how mental illness affects how a person can function on the outside, even if the problem starts on the inside of the mind
Also, I think the flowers on the tree are some sort of trigger, and sends Tyler into a bad mental state. I relate to that because seemingly innocuous things often can trigger my depressive thoughts, and like how the music video portrays it, it just darkens everything around me. When he says "it's over my head" I think is a submission to the hopelessness and helplessness that comes along with it
As someone who is learning to grow and trying to get better, the fear of "backsliding" is so real, and this is my favorite song on the album so far. It's just so relatable for me
"I don't wanna backslide to where I've started from
There's no chance I will shake this again
'Cause I feel the pull, water's over my head
Strength enough for onе more time
Reach my hand abovе the tide
I'll take anything you have"
I relate this to my suicidal thoughts, and how if I return to how I was when my depressing thoughts were so heavy, there is "no chance " I'd be able to make it out again. And the chorus continues this with Tyler saying he can get out of the waters just "one more time" before drowning. The flashes of light, particularly in the chorus probably reference his attempt while standing in the road, as illustrated in Next Semester. It's like the thoughts trigger and he remembers where hew as at, and everything is dark a nd scary again. It's such a difficult place to be in
" If you could throw me a line
I should've loved you better
Do you think that now's the time
You should let go?
It's over my head"
I relate to this part, as it looks like Tyler is just begging anyone to give him anything to continue. I have been in that place of desperation searching for absolutely anything to hold on to. He is almost condemning the people around him for not helping him more, as they are letting him go, right as he needs their support and the water is getting back "over his head "
The I should have loved you better line really hits home for me, as I recently got out of a relationship and it was all my fault, and the regret I have for that. She was really good for me, and I just wasn't what I needed to be, and it's my fault that the people I love runaway from me. My therapist thinks this is thought distortion but I'm not so sure.
As someone who recently deconstructed and lost their faith, I also interpret this as a cry to god. At the peak of my depression, I was begging for any sign that a god was there looking out for me. "Do you think that now's the time you should let go? " represents the idea that god is letting him go. He didn't give me anything, and it just hurt to have that part of my life decimated. I don't know what kind of god who has the power to help someone in their darkest hours and just chooses not to.
"Rat race, place to place, adding weight
Tendencies on repeat, innit?
Benefit from a shoe with no lace
Take the seat with the crease in it"
For me, this is where I'm at now. Running in the rat race of capitalism trying to find a job and get my life back together. Everything seems to stay the same, every day repeats itself. The line about the shoe with no lace and the seat with a crease to me represents accepting the fact that the world isn't optimal to live in, especially for people with mental illnesses, but we have to make do with what we have.
"I don't mind if it's lonely
I don't mind if it's fair
I don't care, you control me
Leading me anywhere"
To me, this is just completely giving up one's autonomy. I have been at that point where I would just do anything, let anyone tell me what to do and then do that. In my head, nothing mattered, so doing anything, even self destructive things, was justified because I would just follow where the wind took me not caring about the consequences. Also the lyrics of not minding that life isn't fair and that he's lonely, is a way of accepting the current situation. Almost apathetic to it. At 1:55 Tyler briefly rides with no hands, perhaps symbolizing this sort of reckless behavior.
I guess I'm just gonna go through all the lyrics, because this song just speaks to me.
"Bad place, on a hundred-dollar bass
Kinda wishin' that I never did "Saturday"
"Is that a stain? You should change"
Are you doin' good?
Did you solve all of your problems?"
Thanks for asking
In a way, but accidentally uncovered a new one yesterday
What happened to what I brushed under the rug?
I used to be the champion of a world you can't see
Now I'm drowning in logistics"
I think the whole 2nd verse is about how popular the band became, and how with all this success, the thought patterns haven't really gotten better, the problems have just changed or morphed into new ones. This is so relatable to me, as I think whenever I solve some problems new ones always arise. The stain to me represents both mental illness and creative freedom, as some people want the band to change their style to become more popular. This speaks to me personally, as it's as if people around me expect me to change and behave as if I don't have any reason for behaving as I do. It's like they just don't get it. To me this is perfectly represented in the video as Tyler pays for his lemonade with a burger bun. He has the money for it, as shown at the end when he buys buns for a 2nd time. It doesn't really make sense, but in tyler's mind, the bun represents so much so it is more than a cash payment. At the beginning wee see Tyler throw away something in the same manner a t the end, suggesting that this isn't the first time the buns got soggy , nor will it b e the last. This push and pull of mental illness is all but routine. I wonder if the Saturday line is referring to that maybe Tyler thinks he sold out some creative integrity for a more traditional pop sound in Saturday. I think that is a constant theme from his songs, the push between what's popular and what Tyler wants to create.
I love the ending so much, because Tyler realizes he needs to go back for new buns, and Josh isn't upset. He doesn't go away, he waits for him. I think this shows how if you can find a true friend, they will help weather the storm with you, no matter what it is, or how often it happens. He even checks his phone, which I presume is to c heck and see if Tyler messaged him, he didn't expect him to be gone that long
I'm not sure, just thoughts from a depressed person
The melody in the chorus is absolutely addictive.
Now I want a t-shirt that says "directed by Josh Dun" 🚀🚀
that would be so fire 🔥
Clancy is 3/3 so far
All hits, no misses
So agree
overcompensate is a little miss for me, but this and next semester is good
Facts
I'm pretty sure it's 4/4 👀
you right
This song was so unexpected, i cried so hard to this one. It really hit home.
The bread is branded with Ned's face on it. I like how the song encourages perseverance.
Tyler talks about not liking the fake snow in the Fairly Local mv.
Josh "I've got something for you." lol. What an incredible song and mv though (my favorite from Clancy so far)
Didn't knew my love for this band could even grow more than it already is. This album will be a classic and I am going to listen to it for my entire life.
Same
I love this so much. Honestly, it’s what I needed to hear. Always having that conversation with God.
Agreed! The battle in faith but knowing the source!
@@karahhuntsinger513 And the buns are all gone when he returns to Josh, just like faith is gone when we return to God. And we have to start fresh and regather that faith. It’s hard out there! AND Josh isn’t bothered by him still not being there. Just cool calm and collected. Just like God would be. But hey, it’s over our heads.
I think people forget they were originally a Christian band and are continuing to be
Scrolled the comments to find someone who agreed the religious undertones in this song are sick! This is exactly what I love about twenty one pilots and why I have so much respect for them is because the intelligence it takes to write in double entendre so consistently is incredible. With a Christian world view it's like these songs are slapping you in the face with a Bible sometimes but without they have a completely different albeit very deep and powerful message. Tyler and Josh are incredible humans.

So happy to be alive for this
