Guns for Hands Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I know what you think in the morning
When the sun shines on the ground
And shows what you have done
It shows where your mind has gone
And you swear to your parents
That it will never happen again
I know, I know-ow-ow
What that means, I know-ow-ow-ow-ow
[Pre-Chorus]
That you all have guns
And you never put the safety on
And you all have plans
To take it, to take it, don't take it, take it, take it
[Chorus]
I'm trying, I'm trying to sleep
I'm trying, I'm trying to sleep
But I can't, but I can't when you all have
Guns for hands, yeah
I'm trying, I'm trying to sleep
I'm trying, I'm trying to sleep
But I can't, but I can't when you all have
Guns for hands, yeah
[Verse 2]
Let's take this a second at a time
Let's take this one song, this one rhyme
Together, let's breathe
Together, to the beat
But there's hope out the window
So that's where we'll go
Let's go outside and all join hands
But until then you'll never understand
[Pre-Chorus]
That you all have guns
And you never put the safety on
And you all have plans
To take it, to take it, don't take it, take it, take it (Don't take it)
[Chorus]
I'm trying, I'm trying to sleep
I'm trying, I'm trying to sleep
But I can't, but I can't when you all have
Guns for hands, yeah
[Interlude]
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Whoo!
(Da-da da-da-da)
(Da-da da-da-da)
(Da-da da-da-da, ah uh)
(Da-da da-da-da)
[Bridge]
We've turned our hands to guns
Traded our thumbs for ammunition
I must forewarn you of my disorder, or my condition
'Cause when the sun sets
It upsets what's left of my invested interest
Interested in putting my fingers to my head
The solution is, I see a whole room of these mutant kids
Fused at the wrist, I simply tell them they should shoot at this
Simply suggest my chest and this confused music
It's obviously best for them to turn their guns to a fist
[Chorus]
I'm trying, I'm trying to sleep
I'm trying, I'm trying to sleep
But I can't, but I can't when you all have
Guns for hands, yeah
I'm trying, I'm trying to sleep (I'm trying to sleep)
I'm trying, I'm trying to sleep (I'm trying to sleep)
But I can't, but I can't when you all have
Guns for hands, yeah

Holding on to You Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'm taking over my body, back in control, no more shotty
I bet a lot of me was lost, "T"'s uncrossed and "I"'s undotted
I fought it a lot and it seems a lot like flesh is all I got
Not anymore, flesh out the door, swat
I must've forgot, you can't trust me
I'm open a moment and close when you show it
Before you know it, I'm lost at sea
And now that I write and think about it and the story unfolds
You should take my life, you should take my soul
[Break]
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
[Chorus]
You are surrounding, all my surroundings
Sounding down the mountain range of my left-side brain
You are surrounding, all my surroundings
Twisting the kaleidoscope behind both of my eyes
[Post-Chorus]
(Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
And I'll be holding on to you
(Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
And I'll be holding on to you
[Verse 2]
Remember the moment you know exactly where you're goin'
'Cause the next moment before you know it
Time is slowin' and it's frozen still
And the windowsill looks really nice, right?
You think twice about your life, it probably happens at night, right?
Fight it, take the pain, ignite it
Tie a noose around your mind, loose enough to breathe fine
And tie it to a tree, tell it, "You belong to me
This ain't a noose, this is a leash
And I have news for you, you must obey me"
[Chorus]
You are surrounding, all my surroundings
Sounding down the mountain range of my left-side brain
You are surrounding, all my surroundings
Twisting the kaleidoscope behind both of my eyes
[Bridge]
Entertain my faith, entertain my faith
Entertain my faith, entertain my faith
Entertain my faith, entertain my faith
Entertain my faith, entertain my faith
Entertain my faith, entertain my faith
[Breakdown]
Lean with it, rock with it, when we gonna stop with it?
Lyrics that mean nothin', we were gifted with thought
Is it time to move our feet, to an introspective beat?
It ain't the speakers that bump hearts, it's our hearts that make the beat
Lean with it, rock with it, when we gonna stop with it?
Lyrics that mean nothin', we were gifted with thought
Is it time to move our feet, to an introspective beat?
It ain't the speakers that bump hearts, it's our hearts that make the beat
Lean with it, rock with it, when we gonna stop with it?
Lyrics that mean nothin', we were gifted with thought
Is it time to move our feet, to an introspective beat?
It ain't the speakers that bump hearts, it's our hearts that make the beat
Lean with it, rock with it, when we gonna stop with it?
Lyrics that mean nothin', we were gifted with thought
Is it time to move our feet, to an introspective beat?
It ain't the speakers that bump hearts and it's our hearts that make the beat
[Outro]
(Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
And I'll be holding on to you, and I'll be holding on to you
(Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
And I'll be holding on to you, and I'll be holding on to you
(Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
And I'll be holding on to you, and I'll be holding on to you
(Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
And I'll be holding on to you, and I'll be holding on to you

Ode to Sleep Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I wake up fine and dandy, but then by the time I find it handy
To rip my heart apart and start planning my crash landing
I go up, up, up, up, up to the ceiling
Then I feel my soul start leaving like an old man's hair receding
I'm pleading, "Please, oh please!" on my knees repeatedly asking
Why it's got to be like this, is this living free?
I don't wanna be the one, be the one who has the
Sun's blood on my hands, I'll tell the moon
Take this weapon forged in darkness
Some see a pen, I see a harpoon
[Pre-Chorus]
I'll stay awake 'cause the dark's not taking prisoners tonight
Why am I not scared in the morning?
I don't hear those voices calling
I must have kicked them out, I must have kicked them out
I swear I heard demons yelling
Those crazy words they were spelling
They told me I was gone, they told me I was gone
[Chorus]
But I'll tell 'em, "Why won't you let me go?
Do I threaten all your plans? I'm insignificant"
Please tell 'em, you have no plans for me
I will set my soul on fire, what have I become?
I'll tell 'em
[Verse 2]
On the eve of a day that's forgotten and fake
As the trees, they await, and clouds anticipate
The start of a day when we put on our face
A mask that portrays that we don't need grace
On the eve of a day that is bigger than us
But we open our eyes 'cause we're told that we must
And the trees wave their arms and the clouds try to plead
Desperately yelling, "There's something we need!"
I'm not free, I asked forgiveness three times
Same amount that I denied, I three-time MVP'd this crime
I'm afraid to tell you who I adore, won't tell you who I'm singing towards
Metaphorically, I'm a whore, and that's denial number four
[Pre-Chorus]
I'll stay awake 'cause the dark's not taking prisoners tonight
Why am I not scared in the morning?
I don't hear those voices calling
I must have kicked them out, I must have kicked them out
I swear I heard demons yelling
Those crazy words they were spelling
They told me I was gone, they told me I was gone
[Chorus]
But I'll tell 'em, "Why won't you let me go?
Do I threaten all your plans? I'm insignificant"
Please tell 'em, you have no plans for me
I will set my soul on fire, what have I become?
[Outro]
I'll tell 'em, you have no plans for me, I will set my soul on fire
What have I become? I'll tell 'em, I'll tell 'em, I'll tell 'em
I'll tell 'em, please tell 'em, you have no plans for me
I will set my soul on fire, what have I become? I'm sorry

Slowtown Lyrics

[Intro]
Hey, hey
Wouldn't it be great, great
If we could just lay down
And wake up in Slowtown?
Today-day
I wanna go away-way
'Cause things are too fast now
I wanna be in Slowtown
[Chorus]
I put my socks on my feet
Just so that my soul won't fall through my toes
And I walk through my door
Just so I don't fall through the floor
[Verse]
I remember when my brother and other kids from neighboring houses
Would get together, I'd ride my bike and my brother would ride his
Put cards in our spokes and make our engines sound like traffic
When using Pokémon cards, please do not use the holographics
So bold and fearless in the risks we'd take
Laugh in the face of gravity as its laws we'd break
On trampolines so high, we'd reach for the sky
But I do not look up anymore, uh, and I don't know why
[Chorus]
I put my socks on my feet
Just so that my soul won't fall through my toes
And I walk through my door
Just so I don't fall through the floor
[Segue]
Slow, slow
Slow, slow
Slow, slow
Slow, slow
[Bridge]
We're going too fast, fast, save us
We're going too fast, fast, save us
We're going too fast, fast, save us now
We're going too fast, fast, save us
We're going too fast, fast, save us
We're going too fast, fast, save us now
We're going too fast, fast, save us
We're going too fast, fast, save us
We're going too fast, fast, save us now
[Chorus]
I walk through my door
(We're going too fast, fast, save us)
Just so I don't fall through the floor
(We're going too fast, fast, save us
We're going too fast, fast, save us now)
[Outro]
Hey, hey
Wouldn't it be great, great
If we could just lay down
And wake up in Slowtown?
Just singin'

Car Radio Lyrics

[Intro]
I ponder of something great
My lungs will fill and then deflate
They fill with fire, exhale desire
I know it's dire, my time today
I have these thoughts so often, I ought
To replace that slot with what I once bought
'Cause somebody stole my car radio
And now I just sit in silence
[Verse 1]
Sometimes quiet is violent
I find it hard to hide it, my pride is no longer inside
It's on my sleeve, my skin will scream
Reminding me of who I killed inside my dream
I hate this car that I'm driving, there's no hiding for me
I'm forced to deal with what I feel
There is no distraction to mask what is real
I could pull the steering wheel
[Chorus]
I have these thoughts so often, I ought
To replace that slot with what I once bought
'Cause somebody stole my car radio
And now I just sit in silence
[Verse 2]
I ponder of something terrifying
'Cause this time there's no sound to hide behind
I find over the course of our human existence
One thing consists of consistence
And it's that we're all battling fear
Oh dear, I don't know if we know why we're here
Oh my, too deep, please stop thinking
I liked it better when my car had sound
There are things we can do
But from the things that work there are only two
And-a from the two that we choose to do
Peace will win and fear will lose
And there's faith and there's sleep
We need to pick one, please, because
Faith is to be awake and to be awake is for us to think
And for us to think is to be alive
And I will try with every rhyme
To come across like I am dying
To let you know you need to try to think
[Chorus]
I have these thoughts so often, I ought
To replace that slot with what I once bought
'Cause somebody stole my car radio
And now I just sit in silence
[Bridge]
(Woah, oh-oh-oh)
(Woah, oh-oh-oh)
(Woah, oh-oh-oh)
(Woah, oh-oh-oh)
And now I just sit in silence
And now I just sit in silence
And now I just sit
And now I just sit in silence
And now I just sit in silence
And now I just sit in silence
And now I just sit
[Outro]
I ponder of something great
My lungs will fill and then deflate
They fill with fire, exhale desire
I know it's dire, my time today
I have these thoughts so often, I ought
To replace that slot with what I once bought
'Cause somebody stole my car radio
And now I just sit in silence

Forest Lyrics

[Intro]
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh
[Verse 1]
I don't know why I feed on emotion
There's a stomach inside my brain
I don't wanna be heard, I wanna be listened to
Does it bother anyone else that someone else has your name?
Oh, does it bother anyone else that someone else has your name, your name?
[Pre-Chorus]
I scream, you scream
We all scream, 'cause we're terrified
Of what's around the corner
We stay in place
'Cause we don't wanna lose our lives
So let's think of something better
[Chorus]
Down in the forest, we'll sing a chorus
One that everybody knows
Hands held higher, we'll be on fire
Singing songs that nobody wrote
[Verse 2]
My brain has given up, white flags are hoisted
I took some food for thought, it might be poisoned
The stomach in my brain throws up onto the page
Does it bother anyone else that someone else has your name?
Does it bother anyone else that someone else has your name?
[Pre-Chorus]
I scream, you scream
We all scream, 'cause we're terrified
Of what's around the corner
We stay in place
'Cause we don't wanna lose our lives
So let's think of something better (Better)
Oh
[Chorus]
Down in the forest, we'll sing a chorus
One that everybody knows
Hands held higher, we'll be on fire
Singing songs that nobody wrote
[Bridge]
Quickly moving towards the storm, moving forward, torn
Into pieces over reasons of what these storms are for
I don't understand why everything I adore
Takes a different form when I squint my eyes
Have you ever done that? When you squint your eyes
And your eyelashes make it look a little not right
And then when just enough light comes from just the right side
And you find you're not who you're supposed to be?
This is not what you're supposed to see
Please, remember me?
I am supposed to be
King of a kingdom, or swinging on a swing
Something happened to my imagination
The situation's becoming dire
My tree house is on fire
And for some reason I smell gas on my hands
This is not what I had planned
This is not what I had planned
Down in the forest, we'll sing a chorus (Forest, chorus)
Hands held higher, we'll be on fire
Singing songs that nobody wrote
[Chorus]
Down in the forest, we'll sing a chorus
One that everybody knows, yeah
Hands held higher, we'll be on fire
Singing songs that nobody wrote
[Outro]
Hands held higher, we'll be on fire
Hands held higher, we'll be on fire (Fire)

Glowing Eyes Lyrics

[Intro: Tyler Joseph]
La, la, da, da
La, la, da, da, da
La, la, da, da
La, la, da, da
La, la, da, da
La, la, da, da, da
La, la, da, da
La, la, da
[Verse 1: Tyler Joseph]
We all are stranger creatures than when we all started out as kids
Culture forbids
We have romantic fantasies about what dying truly is
Fall off the grid
[Pre-Chorus: Tyler Joseph]
We live for the night's decor
It reveals what we dream of
[Chorus: Tyler Joseph]
I know there's someone at the door
They called for help, of this I'm sure
But do I want to say goodbye
To all the glowing eyes?
I'm holding on to what I know
And what I know, I must let go
But I would rather play a song
For the eyes to sing along
[Post-Chorus: Tyler Joseph]
La, la, da, da
La, la, da, da, da
La, la, da, da
La, la, da (The eyes to sing along)
La, la, da, da (Long)
La, la, da, da, da (Long)
La, la, da, da
La, la, da
[Interlude: Tyler Joseph with James Truslow]
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
[Verse 2: Tyler Joseph & James Truslow]
We all know somebody who knows somebody who's doing great
I know some people who know people who are flying straight
But I'll kindly enter into rooms of depression
While ceiling fans and idle hands will take my life again
[Pre-Chorus: Tyler Joseph]
We live for the night's decor
It reveals what we dream of
[Chorus: Tyler Joseph]
I know there's someone at the door
They called for help, of this I'm sure
But do I want to say goodbye
To all the glowing eyes?
I'm holding on to what I know
And what I know, I must let go
But I would rather play a song
For the eyes to sing along
[Bridge: Tyler Joseph with James Truslow]
This room is far too dark for us to stay around
Redemption's not that far, and darkness is going down
This room is far too dark, for us to stay around
Redemption's not that far, and darkness is going down
La, la, da, da
La, la, da, da, da
La, la, da, da
La, la, da, da
La, la, da, da
La, la, da, da, da
La, la, da, da
La, la, da
[Chorus: Tyler Joseph]
I'm holding on to what I know
And what I know, I must let go
But I would rather play a song
For the eyes to sing along
[Outro: Tyler Joseph]
Their eyes will sing along, long, long
Make them stop
Make them stop
Make them stop
Make them stop
Make them stop

Kitchen Sink Lyrics

[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1: Tyler Joseph]
Nobody thinks what I think
Nobody dreams when they blink
Think things on the brink of blasphemy
I'm my own shrink
Think things are after me, I'm my catastrophe
At my kitchen sink
You don't know what that means
Because a kitchen sink to you is not a kitchen sink to me
Okay, friend?
Are you searching for purpose?
Then write something, yeah, it might be worthless
Then paint something, and it might be wordless
Pointless curses, nonsense verses
You'll see purpose start to surface
No one else is dealing with your demons
Meaning maybe defeating them could be the beginning
Of your meaning, friend
[Chorus: Tyler Joseph]
Go away, go away
Go away, go away
Leave me alone, leave me alone
Leave me alone, leave me alone
Leave me alone
Leave me alone
Leave me alone
[Verse 2: Tyler Joseph]
Nobody thinks what you think, no one
Empathy might be on the brink of extinction
They will play a game
And say they know what you're going through
And I tried to come up with an artistic way to say
They don't know you
And neither do I
So here's a prime example of a stand-up guy who
Hates what he believes and loves it at the same time
Here's my brother
And his head's screwed up, but that's all right
[Bridge: Zack Joseph]
Time gains momentum the moment when I'm living in 'em
I'm winning a momentary, sinning a moment passing after
A re-beginning moment's mending memories
Pretending enemies are friends of me
Sending me straight to bending me
My bad behavior but I bet I could have been a better man
Copy and paste caught me, and copy, better rhymes bother me
The better the rhythm, the badder I am
But I bet I'll battle with 'em battle
Better I am, gamblin' man, better bet I am a gambling man, I am?
[Chorus: Tyler Joseph]
Go away, go away
Go away, go away
Leave me alone, leave me alone
Leave me alone, leave me alone
[Outro: Tyler Joseph]
Leave me alone!
Don't leave me alone!
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh

Anathema Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You will never know what's behind my skull
So won't you say goodnight, so I can say goodbye?
You will never know what's under my hair
So won't you say goodnight, so I can say goodbye?
You will never know what's under my skin
So won't you say goodnight, so I can say goodbye?
You will never know what is in my veins
So won't you say goodnight, so I can say goodbye?
[Chorus]
Won't you go to someone else's dreams? (Else's dreams)
Won't you go to someone else's head? (Else's head)
Haven't you taken enough from me? (Enough from me)
Won't you torture someone else's sleep? (Else's sleep)
[Verse 2]
And you will never know what I'm thinking of
Won't you go to someone else's dreams?
So won't you say goodnight, so I can say goodbye
Won't you go to someone else's head?
And you will never understand what I believe
Haven't you taken enough from me?
So won't you say goodnight so I can say goodbye?
Won't you torture someone else?
[Chorus]
Haven't you taken enough from me?
Won't you torture someone else's sleep?
Won't you go to someone else's dreams?
Won't you go to someone else's head?
Haven't you taken enough from me? (Oh)
Won't you torture someone else's sleep? (Oh)
[Verse 3]
I start to part two halves of my heart in the dark and I
Don't know where I should go and the tears and the fears begin to multiply
Taking time in a simple place; in my bed where my head rests on a pillowcase
And it's said that a war's lead but I forget that I let another day go by (Ah)
I want to be afraid but it seems that these days
I'm caught underwater and I'm falling farther
My heart's getting harder, I'm calling my father
Am I screaming to an empty sky?
Empty sky, no way, that's me 'cause one half of my heart is free
Empty sky, no way, that's me, 'cause the other half of my heart's asleep

Lovely Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You say things with your mouth, cobwebs and flies come out
I hear a second voice behind your tongue somehow
Luckily I can read your mind, flies and cobwebs unwind
They will not take you down, they will not cast you out, out
[Interlude]
Dear friend, here we are again
Pretending to understand how you think your world is ending
Sending signals and red flags in waves
It's hard to tell the difference between blood and water these days
I'll pray that one day you'll see
The only difference between life and dying
Is one is trying, that's all we're called to do
So try to love me and I'll try to save you
[Chorus]
Won't you stay alive? I'll take you on a ride
I will make you believe you are lovely
Won't you stay alive? I'll take you on a ride
I will make you believe you are lovely
[Verse 2]
Your redemption won't grow stale
We are now just setting sail
On the seas of what we fear
Treason now is growing near to me
[Bridge 1]
I'm coming clean
God, hit me straight on
God, hit me straight on
[Chorus]
Won't you stay alive? I'll take you on a ride
I will make you believe you are lovely
Won't you stay alive? I'll take you on a ride
I will make you believe you are lovely
[Bridge 2]
Don't be gone, don't be gone
Don't be gone, don't be gone
Don't be gone
[Outro]
You say things with your mouth, cobwebs and flies come out
You say things with your mouth, cobwebs and flies come out
You say things with your mouth, cobwebs and flies come out
You say things with your mouth, cobwebs and flies come out
You say things with your mouth, cobwebs and flies come out
You say things with your mouth, cobwebs and flies come out

Ruby Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Ruby, I hope I see you, I've waited all this week
For you to walk my way, your soul will capture me
Your mama painted your room a shade of pink, she said
But with your great arrival, that shade has turned to red
[Verse 2]
Ruby, take my hand, please lead me to the Promised Land
Tell me, where am I from? Your eyes say, sha-da-dee-da-dum
Ruby, you're royalty, in your homeland, they all call you queen
Tell me, where are you from? Your eyes say, sha-da-dee-da-dum
[Chorus]
You're an angel fallen down
Won't you tell us of the clouds?
You have fallen from the sky
How high, how high?
You're an angel fallen down
Won't you tell us of the clouds?
You have fallen from the sky
How high, how high?
(How high, how high?)
[Bridge]
You're true and pure
You hold the cure
We're all diseased
You hold the key
[Chorus]
You're an angel fallen down
Won't you tell us of the clouds?
You have fallen from the sky
How high, how high? (How high)?
[Outro]
Tell our dad I'm sorry
Tell our dad I'm sorry
Tell our dad I'm sorry
Tell our dad I'm sorry
Tell our dad I'm sorry
Tell our dad I'm sorry
Tell our dad I'm sorry
You're an angel
You're an angel
You're an angel
You're an angel
You're an angel
Tell our dad I'm sorry
Tell our dad I'm sorry
Tell our dad I'm sorry, yeah
You're an angel, you're an angel
(Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey)

Trees Lyrics

[Verse]
I know where You stand
Silent in the trees
And that's where I am
Silent in the trees
Why won't You speak
Where I happen to be?
Silent in the trees
Standing cowardly
[Chorus]
I can feel Your breath
I can feel my death
I want to know You
I want to see
I want to say
Hello, hello
Hello, oh, hello
[Refrain]
Da da, da da da, da-da
Da da, da da da, da-da
Da da, da da da, da-da
Da da, da da da, da-da
[Verse]
I know where You stand
Silent in the trees
And that's where I am
Silent in the trees
Why won't You speak
Where I happen to be?
Silent in the trees
Standing cowardly
[Chorus]
I can feel Your breath
I can feel my death
I want to know You
I want to see
I want to say
[Refrain]
Hello (Da da, da da da, da-da
Da da, da da da, da-da)
Hello (Da da, da da da, da-da
Da da, da da da, da-da)
Hello, hello, hello, hello

Da da, da da da, da-da)
[Outro]

Be Concerned Lyrics

[Intro: Tyler Joseph]
Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa
Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa
Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa
Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa
[Verse 1: Tyler Joseph]
Where'd you go, huh? They all think I know ya
It's so hard to motivate me to devote
A single inch of me to something I can't see
I don't mean to pry but why would you even make the eyes?
I don't believe my ears and I'm scared of my own head
I will deny you for years then I'll make you raise me from the dead
And if I said that I would live for you for nothing in return
Well, I'm sorry, Mr. Gullible, but lying's all I've learned
[Refrain: Tyler Joseph]
So be concerned
(Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa)
So be concerned
(Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa)
[Verse 2: Jocef]
Uh, uh
No music, and I can talk about anything
Whether or not it's worthwhile, it’s based on who's listenin'
Most of us listen if it's something we can relate to
All of us relate if it's something we've just been through
Taken for granted, trust is damaged and now we panic
Livin' empty handed, livin' lives like we can manage
I can't feel you, but still know where home is, feeling like Jonah did
Almost dropped the bat like every base was fully loaded
[Refrain: Jocef, Tyler Joseph]
So be concerned, yeah (Uh-huh, uh-huh)
(Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa)
So be concerned (Yeah, yeah)
(Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa)
You should, yeah
[Verse 3: Tyler Joseph]
(Okay, alright, um)
I am disappearing inside my bird's eye theories
I tried to say goodbye, defy, and deny what it is I'm fearing
Clearly, I am dying, dearly, I am writing, merely testifying
That a test to fly requires, I pass the test with colors flying
I don't believe you most the time
I'm lying 'cause I say I am fine (Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa)
You are the pearl, I am the swine
So break my life and take this rhyme (Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa)
I'm so sorry but I do believe
That all my bridges I have burned
And I've earned a policy of no-return
[Refrain: Tyler Joseph]
So be concerned
(Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa)
So be concerned
(Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa)
So be concerned
(Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa)
So be concerned
(Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa)
[Outro: Tyler Joseph]
Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa
Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa
Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa
Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa
Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa
Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa

Clear Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I wish that I had two faces
To prove which theory works
Yelling on the street corner
Or cleverly maskin' your words
I take my face off at the door
'Cause I don't know who they will take me for
I wonder, if I tell 'em what I did last night
Whether or not I got caught, they just might
Wage war on you, therefore it's true
That I shot my general on my side of enemy lines
[Chorus]
I'm the son of all I've done
I'm the son of all I've done
Impostor, been fostered
Then my new father drained my dirty blood
I'm the son of all I've done
I'm the son of all I've done
Impostor, been fostered
Then my new father drained my dirty blood
[Post-Chorus]
Oh-ah, oh, oh, oh
[Verse 2]
I'm not trying to be lying to you
But it takes a clever guy to do what I do
It takes some chivalry and well-placed energy
To subliminally get yourself inside you
Introspection is the name of this session
Spread this infection, reflect it on the next one
The next one, the next one
And when we're done
We'll all have made something new under the sun
I'm not done, I'm not done yet, no
Kick me off the stage and take my microphone
Then you'll walk up to me and when you get close
I'll look you in the face and say, "Where's your home?
Where're you going and why're you here?"
Have you asked these questions? Have you been sincere?
Wanna know what I believe? It's right here
Dig a little deeper and it's crystal clear, clear, clear, clear
[Chorus]
I'm the son of all I've done
I'm the son of all I've done
Impostor, been fostered
Then my new father drained my dirty blood
I'm the son of all I've done
I'm the son of all I've done
Impostor, been fostered
Then my new father drained my dirty blood
[Outro]
Oh, oh
I will tell you what I can
But your mind will take a stand
I sing of a Greater Love
Let me know when you've had enough
I will tell you what I can
But your mind will take a stand
I sing of a Greater Love
Let me know when you've had enough
I will tell you what I can
But your mind will take a stand
I sing of a Greater Love
Let me know when you've had enough
