The obligatory 'What Are You Listening To' thread. Always interesting to share and learn from each other's musical tastes.
I have to admit, I'm not a huge Twenty One Pilots fan, but I checked out the new video when it was released just to see if there was any new Suicide Squad footage, and the song grew on me right away.
Note: For the sake of this thread, if nothing else, could we turn the 'Auto-Embed Video Links' option on?
Nine years ago this week, I was listening to this album when I heard the news about Chris Benoit. Over the following days, as the story unfolded, I listened to this track a lot, and perhaps because of that, or because of some of the strange and creepy lyrical connections, this song has become forever connected to that tragedy for me.
"...Cursed with a love that you can't express It's not for a fuck, or a kiss Rather give the world away than wake up lonely Everywhere in every way I see you with me
Crowd surf off a cliff Land out on the ice Crowd surf off to sea float towards the beach
If you find me, hide me, I don't know where I've been
Are we breathing, are we breathing, are we wasting our breath? It won't be enough to be rich All the babies tucked away in their beds We're out here screaming, "The life that you thought through is gone!" Can't wind down, the ending outlasting the move I wake up lonely
Crowd surf off a cliff Land out on the ice Crowd surf off to sea float towards the beach
If you find me, hide me, I don't know where I've been When you phone me tell me everything I did If I'm sorry you lost me you'd better make it quick Cause this call costs a fortune and it's late where you live It's late where you live
Rather give the world away than wake up lonely Everywhere and every way I see you with me All the babies tucked away in their beds We're out here screaming, "The life that you thought through is gone" Can't want out, the ending outlasting the move I wake up lonely
