When you wake up tomorrow you could meet your idol, your one true inspiration. You could even end up being friends! However, if you don't stay alive each day for the chance that it may come true, you'll be the thing that stops it happening. Stay alive frens. It may seem impossible that everything will get better, but I can guarantee that weirder things have happened. Just give it a chance |-/
Their is 21 comments so I'm sad to make a comment right now but, every morning I need to listen to this every morning before I start my day just to remind me that everything at school will be okay because that's how I use the lyrics to help me.
*The Nights* Avicii Hey, once upon a younger year When all our shadows disappeared The animals inside came out to play Hey, when face to face with all our fears Learned our lessons through the tears Made memories we knew would never fade One day my father-he told me, "Son, don't let it slip away" He took me in his arms, I heard him say, "When you get older Your wild life will live for younger days Think of me if ever you're afraid." He said, "One day you'll leave this world behind So live a life you will remember." My father told me when I was just a child These are the nights that never die My father told me When thunder clouds start pouring down Light a fire they can't put out Carve your name into those shinning stars He said, "Go venture far beyond the shores. Don't forsake this life of yours. I'll guide you home no matter where you are." One day my father-he told me, "Son, don't let it slip away." When I was just a kid I heard him say, "When you get older Your wild life will live for younger days Think of me if ever you're afraid." He said, "One day you'll leave this world behind So live a life you will remember." My father told me when I was just a child These are the nights that never die My father told me These are the nights that never die My father told me...
You know when you're listening to a song and it makes you cry and it honestly feels like in that moment you're actually okay, and then you remember that it will probably only give you that feeling once or twice, so you don't listen to it for a while, willing it to happen again, and you try again and it's just kind of... gone.
If you're a new fan of Twenty one Pilots, or just like this song, here's the meaning of it. Open the *slits* in your face. (meaning - Open your eyes.) You dont have much time to make your *slits* look just right. (meaning - You dont have much time to get them ready) I'm in your mind. (meaning - I know you're thinking of me.) 2nd Verse: Look in the mirror and ask your *soul* if you're alright. (meaning - look in the mirror, and ask yourself, if you're alright) Put out the *glitter* your *soul hides behind* (meaning - Don't use that makeup, it makes you who you aren't.) You're in my mind. (meaning - I'm thinking of you.) NOTE: Here it starts getting slightly religious, It is proven that Tyler is christian, due to the cross tattoo on his arm, and my claim from 'Ruby' Nowhere were they *holy* (meaning - They weren't valuable anywhere; They weren't sacred enough.) *Open up* your eyes and see the cloud above will hold you. (meaning - look, When you die, God; *capital G in religious matters* will take care of you up there in heaven.) The *clouds* above will *sing* (meaning - The clouds; in this one, the 'clouds' are angels. ''The angels in Heaven will sing,) Hope this helped you! I gathered as much info I could. If I missed anything, please reply to this. I'll try my best to explain other songs. *Edit: And i forgot to mension, this entire song is about tyler explaning how he loves you and how you should be yourself.*
my two fanbases are twenty one pilots and undertake I love sans and would you look at your profile picture wow ok I'm so happy RN also this song is just so emotionally strong
Th KawaiiGirl I think when he says "no where were they holy" is a refrence to how no man is perfect, even those in the bible (besides Jesus) and therefore, since we are all unholy, we need to open our eyes and look up for someone (God) to hold us, because we cannot hold up ourselves.
I may have social anxiety (not sure. haven't told anyone, I'm too nervous to talk to anyone about it) and some of my friends wanted me to go to a dance a few days ago and I was stressed out over it but went and ended up sitting in the corner with my earbuds in, playing this song. They had literally pulled me out into the groups of people dancing and left me. I almost started crying because they don't know and didn't get it...this song helped calm me down and I was able to focus on it instead of all the madness everywhere..
Seaquidge Holy jeezus! The exact same thing happened to me a few days ago. Our school held a school disco and my classmates said that i should come. It will be... fun. Well. As soon as we got in they left me alone. So i sat on a chair for the whole time listening to twenty one pilots too (yes, with headphones on). At the beginning i almost had a panic attack because of the many people. It's sad that it happened to you too. Nobody should ever experince this feeling.
I don't have anything touching to say because I'm not good with words, but.. When I go to school dances I always either end up hanging out by myself, or taking along as a fifth wheel, no one pays any attention to me at all even though I want to be noticed. Everyone just sees me as some 'loner', they think I want to be left alone, but the truth is I'm just a small ball of nerves. Then when I don't go to the dances my friends always ask why I didn't go.
Because it's a damn work of art that speaks directly to your soul. That's why Maybe you haven't heard the song itself, but you have tried to convince yourself, over and over again, "I'm gonna be okay". And that's what the song's about
Two things: One, my hands are legit shaking at how beautiful this song is. Two, why does it sound like it could be right out of a John Lewis Christmas advert?
I remember one day this year, I had had a horrible day at school. I've been severely bullied, and I have anxiety and minor depression. I snuck my phone into the bathroom, and played this song, and started to bawl my eyes out. That day, this song was all I had. But it was enough. I'm still here, I'm okay. And I realize now, life is hard, SO hard. But, in the end it's worth it. I really hope you guys will see this, and maybe it helped some of you. I'm always here. Stay alive frens |-/
Can I just remind that people want to seem happy and cool but they are truly not? Take for example a super market assistant or your employee. You don't know what they have been up to by far because they dont want to seem sad and broken. Thats why we are all broken people. |-/
I love how it starts slow, like you, on the brink of total hopelessness, then comes a fast part, like you trying to hold on to it, that last hope that keeps you alive. Then it slows down again, representing your fall from grace. Then comes a much faster part, this time its like you just wanting to end it all, with the "you've already gone down, why not go farther" mentality, then it slows down again, with you letting go of your life, and someone suddenly holds your hands and gives you an embrace and warmth.. a warmth that you haven't felt for so long, it just drives you to tears of joy. To know that someone really does care about you, to know that you can once again sing the melodies of your once filled husk, and for that husk to be filled with purpose again.
I struggle with mental health issues, depression and anxiety. I deal with my demons daily. I had a rough life and things got worse after my little brother took his own life 5 years ago. Sometimes I just want everything to end. I love TOP because I don't feel so alone. When I'm sad or have anxiety, I put their music on and instantly I feel safe and calm. This band is one of the reasons I choose to live. I have a son and I have to stay strong and this band literally helps me to be strong. Thank you, Tyler Joseph. Thank you for sharing your music with the world. You have saved my life. ❤
I currently lost my streak but I’m okay now I learned a lesson, I almost ended up in a hospital bed and I dont want that to happen to u friends stay strong life is worth it |-/
this is gonna get lost in the sea of comments but i wanna write this out. i’m listening to this in the morning because i really don’t wanna go to school. i always hate it because i feel horrible. talking to people is utterly exhausting and the schoolwork goes by in a daze. i always feel like i’m a spectator watching my own life happen at school and i hate that. and i wish time could just freeze so i could go back to sleep and not have to think about school. this song is the only thing getting me through this morning.
A couple weeks ago my mom saw my upper thighs...stuff I've hid so well the same thing happened in the summer...but I had a cover story...I just started crying...her reaction is what really hurt me she said that if I have one more cut on my body she is sending me to a treatment center...but for me it will just get worse at a center the reason I keep it from getting so bad is cause I think of my family but if she sends me to a center I'll push that to the back of my mind I'll forget about them...I know myself to well...sorry for ranting I had to say it somewhere and no way am I talking to my family...and I haven't eaten in 3 days...
We r a family of pilots & our fathers r always Stressed Out & builds us each a House of Gold by a Forrest to make sure us Heathens arent Goners❤ plz like if u have a Blurryface |-/
“I’m in your mind” - I relate to this, how tyler is always a part of my mind, because of how much he’s helped me. I think of him always. and his music, and how much I cherish and appreciate it. thanks for saving me from my demons. i adore you |-/
Tyler, youre an angel. Thank God, you exist. Thank you. You dont know how much you help people through the things of life. You help them get through the pain of living that sometimes hit us hard. Thank you for building Twenty One Pilots!
that's so beautiful...when he sings the la-da part it reminds me of so many things..I don't know why but all of this is just...wow ...many things in my mind now are creating...
This song helped me get out of that depressing, dark hole that I was stuck in. So did Truce and many other songs. Some people don't realise how music can help others and Tyler helped himself too by writing music. Stay positive everyone, but don't forget it's ok to cry from time to time and let it out.
No se porque la gente no escucha mas canciones de twenty one pilots, no me importa si se creen únicos y originales, tyler y josh merecen el mejor éxito en cada disco y cada canción 💔
I had this tøp phase when i was younger & i just remember listening to this nonstop back few years ago & i just found it again today, here we go again.. Theres nothing else to say about this but, Beautiful. Absolutely beautiful.
I listened to this song every morning before I went to school from when I was 13-14 years old. Somewhere in the last four years I guess I just missed it. I started listening every morning again while I meditate now, as an 18 year old and It’s a really special occasion every day. It reminds me of the pain I felt during high school and the comfort this song gave me. It helps me connect with my younger self and reminds me of how strong I really was and still am to this day.
This reminds me of a book I read where a man died in war and his wife was at home with her son and trying to live on without him, though she knew he was never coming home. I like to think of this song as him speaking to her subconsciously.
I came back to this song finally, I was feeling sort of down just now (still am). listening really made me think. school is starting soon. last year I used to always listen to this song whenever I needed to cry, which was very often. I was really struggling with a ton of things and I was extremely hard on myself. I never wanted to make it this far. I don’t really know what happened, but i’ve changed so much as a person since that time in my life. I want to make it to the next day, the next week, the next month, and further, and even if I’m scared, and I might not always know who I am, i’ve learned to accept and learn from everything I go through. for the first time in over a year, I want to be alive and enjoy life. this song will always hold a special place in my heart, along with tøp. stay alive you guys ||-//
I was having a panic attack and when I listened to this song, I realized that Tyler will never know how grateful I am that he had written this. Stay alive |-/
this song means too much to me. Everyday when I‘m getting ready (before I start my day) I listen to it and it reminds me that everything will be okay. It just helps to calm me down regardless how I know how bad this day is going to be. Thank you Tyler you‘ve helped me through a lot of bad stuff in my life.
I really wanna give then I come to this song and it reminds me that everything is gonna be alright no matter what. This song also helped me through when I was in a really abusive realationship. Although my depression is still there this song helps me through everything. I just hope this song will always help me.
Can't listen to this without imagining me dying and my mother being alone and depressed going to work in the morning sad and stressed having to deal with my little brothers alone and no having anyone except herself......so then I just cry, I hate how this is the only song I can't listen to without crying.....
These comments made me cry. I haven’t listened to them in years. I’m back now. It helps me get through rough patches in my life. Their music has helped me in ways I can’t fully describe
I love this clique. This is the place where everyone tells their stories and their problems and get help from fellow clique members. I am glad to be a part of this clique, with all its wonderful people and songs. Tyler + Josh have come so far and it just makes me so happy. Stay Alive guys. ||-//
