Joseph, Tyler - Drown Lyrics

I literally drowned several times when I was younger.

maybe i should leave
all im doing is causing shit

1:22 gives me chills every time

haven't listened to that song in ages but it still gives me goosebumps.....

Its amazing how tyler can made me feel a whole emotional journey with in only three minute of a song.
I jast love him.

There are 2 kinds of people. People singing to this and people listening to every word while being surrounded with all kind of emotions.

Hopefully I’m still listening to this in 2021

2:22 Fall away.

Weird how he used the same rap verses in other songs

I wish this was the one available on Spotify. Future of the Purples version just isn't this good :(

Nintendo

where is drum beats ??

This is only Tyler, I don't think Josh is in this song. I could be wrong, though.

soooooo
He will try NINE times???
To realize NINE crimes???
He has more than NINE lives???
I think he was planning dema a loooooooooong time ago

A few weeks ago, I fell again. I relasped. Me and my girlfriend broke up and she replaced in less than a week and a bunch of drama happened between us. She convinced me that I was irreplaceable and than she proved I was replaceable. It hurt. Now I find myself turning back to Tyler. He saved my life less than a year ago, his words convinced me I was worth something. Now I'm back, crying and screaming along to his music. I'm just a kid... I shouldn't have to feel this much at once...

Oh no :(
I’m mortified. No person should ever go through what you’re going through. I know there’s more than the break-up. Remember that you’re strong and brave. I really think that. You simply have to learn how to channel your strength. Just like Tyler did.

it sure is something how much tyler and his music have changed and how stagnant i've remained that i keep coming back to this. you guys still think tyler has his "drown" days?

i remember finding this at 15
almost 5 years ago
still come here when i want to kill myself
hopefully this gets buried

I never thought id make it to 15
Stay alive ||-//

I’m proud of you!

When he says I walk🤯

*fall away flashbacks*

2020 & onwards song 😭💜💜💜

i love this song plus another song has these lyrics

I was 14 in my freshman year of high school when i started listening to this. I am now entering freshman year of college and i still listen to it all the time. this song saved me. you can get through this. you are worth it. we are all here for each other. lets all keep singing together. stay alive. ||-//

ok but HOW COULD SOMEONE DISLIKE THIS???? this song helped so many people and it makes me cry every time

I can't not sway and head bob etc. when I listen to any TyJo or TOP song. They have so much emotion.

The first rap Tho

This melody reminds me a lot of The Pantaloon

I was today years old when I realized the rap verse is re-used in Fall Away... I DiEd O.O

have u ever found that song that every sentence speaks words you would never say....a song that speaks to you. you just cry as you dont feel alone and you fall in love with the rhythm. for me its this song.


its super personal in ways i wont say but ill say thx tyler and everyone stay alive I-/

i be crying to this song dawg

it’s been a while since i’ve needed this song. but here i am and i’m back. i used to cut to this song. i’m so exhausted and tired of everything.

i am in a lot of mental pain right now. it hurts. it hurts so much and i feel alone. when i listen to tyler joseph’s songs, i remember i’m not alone in this horrible hell of suffering.

I listened to this about 10000000 times and I'm still in tears sometimes

we made it to 2020 ||-// stay alive. we've made it this far, kid

About three weeks ago I died for the 3rd time in my 15 years of being on this earth, I keep saying “god won’t let me live, or let me die” but the more I think about it the the odder it seems, the 1st time I died was when I was 9 after getting a brick slammed into my head, the 2nd was when I was 12 from an OD on meth, and the most recent was from a seizure from almost freezing to death because my parents locked me out of the house for the entire night in 28 degree weather because I was 7 minutes late on getting home. But I’ve just been thinking lately that there has to be a reason, some kind of reason why I’m still here, but I just can’t seem to find it. So I’m making my own reason, I want to help the people who need it. I don’t give a fuck if it’s depression, anxiety, ptsd, the loss of someone or something that meant something to you, or your just feeling plain fucking alone in the world, because I know what that’s like, I could be at a point where there could be 100 people around me and I would still feel alone. If you’ve read to this far, than I know your obviously going through something, so please, please let me know how tf I can help you. My insta is - @7uc3f3r
Just hmu whenever, okay, you don’t have to be alone in the world, because if nobody else cares about you, whether I know you or not, I still fucking care about you, I swear. Stay strong 💪🏼

Wow. You're right, the world does have a plan for you, and i think you're going in the right direction. Im also making efforts to help people with mental health, since i lost my father to depression and ive nearly pulled the metaphorical trigger on myself. Im okay now, but not everyone is.
But im still just a teenager. The only way i can currently help people is through the internet. Every day, i go through the newest comments on specific Twenty One Pilots videos (including this one) and try to guide people to the right places. My small efforts are probably worthless, but I'm sure you will find a way to save people who think they're alone.
This is longer than i thought it'd be, so I'll end this off by saying good luck to you :)

Much thanks to you 🙏🏼 and just know that what you say to help people, doing what your doing to at least make an effort to help others who need it has more worth than you can believe, truly

2:21 is the second verse of Fall Away

got chills just now

even 13-12 years after No Phun Intended got released, I still listen to it, stay alive ||-//

2:28 to 2:40 those lyrics are in fall away

I still feel for this song ;-;

Personally Im not a real TØP/Tyler Joseph Fan, but this song gave me goosebumps on a different level, holy shit…

I love you song :3

@Rawan muhamed i love that song Is my favorite of no phun intended :3

@Rawan muhamed ok? What do you mean?

@Rawan muhamed i am from México

What is your favorite album of twenty øne piløts of mine are the 5 albums

This song is literally so incredible, it’s so underrated and deserves a lot more love 😔

Back in April of 2019 this was my favorite song that I would listen to every day with no emotion, just empty inside. It hurts my heart now that I got that far deep into depression that I didn't have the energy to realize that it was that bad. It was a dark place in my life for whatever reason.

It’s 2020 and this song is and will always be amazing

Tylertakeover 2019 yessir

"And this is his call, but it's more of a cry..."

_Me Alone_ •♡⃞★⃞♡⃞

yeah
2019

The rap comes in fall away too right sjgnmdkf

Guys, download these songs with youtube to mp3 before they are taken down like some of the other ones!💜 love you all

this song is under rated

I just realized that this whole verse is also in the song fall away by twenty one pilots

“Every time I feel selfish ambition
Is taking my vision
And my crime is my sentence
Repentance is taking commission
It's taking a toll
On my soul
I'm screaming submission and,
I don't know if I am dying or living
'Cause I will save face
For name's sake
Abuse grace
Take aim to obtain a new name
And a newer place
But my name is lame
I can't walk and I ain't the same
And my name became
A new destiny to the grave”

That’s neat :]

His high voice is beautiful bruh

Well this is the 44924542954623467091213454444th time that I've watched this

I listened to this song today (Christmas) ended up in a mental breakdown🥴🥴😔😓

2:21 to 2:40 are the same lyrics from Fall Away

I just heard of this song via a quote which had lyrics to this song and it said drown, Tyler Joseph.

At first I thought it was a person literally saying to drown Tyler Joseph until I read a comment further down. Gotta say this is an amazing song

I-




HOW DID I NOT KNOW ABOUT THIS YT SOONER

this song saved me 2 years ago. thank you tyler.

Tyler wrote this song at 17. Imagine being his parents listening to him make this.. I couldn’t even imagine

this song is amazing. It will still be amazing in hundreds of years to come.

I only just discovered this, and had no idea the fall away rap is in this

WHY AM I STILL A VIRGIN?

that moment you realize what was going through Tyler’s head when he wrote this

Tyler: *sings rap realing quickly without any troubles*
Me trying to do the rap: awefmjoanefoamldamwefk how does he do it?

Sounds more like random strikes of lightning tho

Wish this was on spotify still; I listen to it all the time. It hurts, really.

I remember hearing this song for the first time and it was this exact video 4 years ago and I finally found it thank you
||-//

why does this have 12 million views

I just want to make it to 2020. Next year I will help myself... I hope so...

And you WILL make it to 2020.. then 2021. Then 2022. And so on.

Ayla Cem Thank you for the kind words Ayla, i’m doing ok so far ❤️

@Mimran 🙂

Here I come, come to you in the very clothes
That I killed, killed you in and now I know I'm alone
I walk to you, rain falls from you
Can you wash me, can you drown me?

Tyler is using religion as his theme. Its a metaphor for his walk with God, hes coming to God, his father in the same clothes he killed in. This represents how Christ died on the cross for sin, he is using the bloody shirt as a way of taking ownership of the messed up things hes done and hes sorry. He feels terrible and he feels alone. Hes in the midst of his greatest despair and he's walking to god as the rain is falling and hes pleading. Wash me (forgive me of my sins and help me get better) or drown me (kill me, take me out so I don't have to feel this anymore). He wants an answer because he doesn't think he can keep going in purgatory.

I wanna be a lot of things, so much pent up inside of me
I wanna be stronger, too long I've sat here decidedly
Planning strategy, half of me knows it's all just a fallacy
Failing miserably, drastically and then I crash dramatically
Into a wall I've hit a hundred times before
And yet I still ignore the dark red blood stains on the floor
And I'm back in front of you, Lord, with blood on the floor
Is the blood mine or yours? Don't wanna do this anymore

Tyler wants to do so much, he wants to be someone, he wants to do music, he wants to make a difference in the world and all of these thoughts and feelings and emotions are bottled up inside of him and he doesn't know how to get it out accept through music. He wants to be strong, but hes torn. Hes tried planing strategies to try to outsmart his head and nothing ever works. He fails and he keeps hitting the same wall, the same problem over and over again and he's tired. Still, he gets up and he tries some more and hits the same wall again and again. He's back in front of God pleading for help. The blood on the floor could either be God's meaning the sacrifice or it could be Tyler's from all the attempts he's made to try to find whatever hes looking for or get over whatever problem he's facing. He's tired, he's feels weak, he's tired of living, he doesn't want to go on anymore.

Back and forth between being me and who you call me to be
You see a man free who thinks he has to buy a key
To a door but he can't 'cause he's poor and he can't
Fall down anymore 'cause he's already on the floor
And his heart is broken and all and this is his call
But it's more of a cry 'cause he will try nine times
To realize nine crimes but he has more than nine lives
So he picks himself up and keeps climbing for the prize again

He's going back and forth. He wants to do what he wants to do, which Christians refer to as sin nature but he know who God calls him to be. He has to make a decision and he's finding it hard to choose. God looks at Tyler as someone who is forgiven and loved and is already free because Tyler has accepted God into his life and he has a relationship with him, but Tyler doesn't feel free, he doesn't know how to reach out and take the freedom. He's at the end of his will to try anymore, he's hit rock bottom. He's saying he has 9 crimes, 9 things he struggles with, but he has more than 9 lives, which is Gods forgiveness, the 9 crimes almost don't matter because God is going to show mercy.The number 9 gives him hope. Yes, Tyler has messed up, but he's going to get another chance. He gets up and tries again and he keeps going even though he doesn't want to. 9 also probably parallels with the 9 bishops of Dema and each of them represent something he's struggling with, which are the sins he's trying to overcome to be a better person and get closer to God.


Here I come again to you
Just to show that blood soaked through
Through my bones and all I own
Is there a way for me to grow?
I walk to you, rain falls from you
Can you wash me, can you drown me, please?

Now the blood is a parallel of the sin or the bad things that have has cause and effect on his life. Its seeped in to every aspect, his thoughts, his feelings, his actions, everything. He wants to know is there anyway I can get out of this? Is there anyway I can grow and fix this so my life isn't like this. He walks to God and rain falls down from him and Tyler is ok with being forgiven or dying, he thinks God will choose the right one for him, but he just wants an answer.


Every time I feel selfish ambition is taking my vision
My crime is my sentence, repentance is taking commission
It's taking a toll on my soul, I'm screaming submission and
I don't know if I am dying or living

Ok here I think we find one of the nine things that he struggles with: selfish ambition. He sometimes gets blinded by wanting to do things his way and how he wants to do it. Tyler's sensitive though even him doing this is punishment enough, that the fact he did it is going to bother him. He's hard on himself and his way of repenting is surrendering and saying hey I'll do what you want, just tell me God. It's taking a toll on him though, he's tired of always loosing this fight and he's screaming at himself to submit and be a better person, but he still messes up sometimes. He doesn't know if he's alive or dying because he's so sad all the time and at this point he probably wants to die.

'Cause I will save a face for name's sake
Abuse grace, take a aim up to obtain a new name in a newer place
But my name is lame, I can't walk and I ain't the same
And my name became a new destiny to the grave and
They say the ocean's blue, but it's black right now
In the dark, on the sand, looking out at my crowd

Here he's talking about how he will maybe not admit things in person like what hes struggling with to keep the image hes trying to portray of a happy perfect life. Tyler's also talking about how people abuse the grace of God and just expect it every time, they look at it as something they are entitled to. The new name part might be a biblical reference to heaven, when you get to heaven, you are supposed to have a name that's not your earthly name that only God knows and once you die, you are referred to as that name in heaven. The new place is probably referring to heaven as well. Then he goes back to talking about his earthly name, Tyler and is saying, its not that great. He can't walk because he's tired and bloodied and bruised and he's not like other people, he's not the same. He feels like he's the only one who thinks like this. His name is a destiny to the grave, he's feeling hopeless, he feels like because hes so different, possibly the only one, that he just wants to die. He's lacking companionship and community. He talks about the ocean which is his way of saying, yeah the ocean might be blue (life going well for everyone else around him) but its black for him. (things aren't going his way, hes sad, hes depressed, hes tired) He then uses standing on shore as an analogy for being on stage and the clique is his crowd. Other peoples lives and oceans may be blue, but ours is black. When he looks out at his crowd he sees people with other black oceans and lives too and together we form this clique that gives Tyler the companionship and community hes been looking for.

Depression and drowning singing now the full parts
And lightning reveals where the ocean stops and the sky starts
I've been told by the sky that the ocean I shall win
But it's hard for me to see where ocean stops and sky begins
A random strikes of light remind me of what is true
But right now the ocean's blacker than black, the sky is too

Here hes talking about his shows. All these people come together that have depression and feel like they are drowning too and these kids are singing the lyrics back to him. The lighting is a metaphor for life and when the stage lights go up and they walk out of that venue, real life hits him in the face. The ocean is representing the clique throughout this and the ocean is a metaphor for how our brains work differently. When he's on stage he's unaware of where life begins and his clique ends, they become one and he shares a moment with them. The sky in this case is God and God has promised him that hey I'm going to give you that crowd and now that he has it, hes trying to balance his relationship with God and this clique he's been given. He might loose sight of some things for a while but then lightning (life) reminds him that God is sovereign and keeps Tyler in check. Then he says the oceans blacker than black and the sky is too, so the kids in his crowd are really sad and they have black oceans and at this moment Tyler isn't hearing anything from God and he feels alone.

Woah. I knew this song referenced God but i didn't know it went to this level..

Still here, 2020

Put it at speed 0.75 for the rap practice :p

Also when he says can you drown me please? The way he says “please” it hurts me so much that our smol bean went through this too. I am so proud of his growth and i wish I can just tell him how much his music has helped me...well, stay alive. :) Thank you twenty one pilots. And josh you too. Your just as amazing and we appreciate and love you both immensely. I hate that people call them emo because their not. Just because they talk about serious topics that scare other people doesn’t mean their emo. They are simply being straight forward about hard topics that people don’t like to talk about and their honesty is what we love. They even say themselves that they want to raise awareness and get people thinking. I’m just so happy I got into them. :D please stay alive. Whoever may read this you are worthy, everyone deserves a life including you. We are all beautiful people inside and out and we all deserve happiness. (Lol I’m such a hypocrite. When I’m the one with crippling depression saying YAY LIFE. 😂 srry but for real guys. This is why the cliques here- to keep us alive.

the "i walk" and "can you" (where he goes high) absolutely stops my heart

We are begging to keep no phun intended because its saving us. We are literally crying *together*

tyler is the reason i have hope to make it to 2020.

Normal bands: we have a good drummer and a great singer
Twenty one pilots: we have a pianist that screams plays the ukulele and bass, and a bad ass drummer

2:22 Fall Away

Iant that fal away fast rap??????? Wuuutttt

I'm not crying you are








**sad skeleton cliquey noises**

This song fits so well with my old religion and my journey out of it...

if you’re listening to this right now, i hope you get through it, i hope you find peace and i hope you keep going and i hope you stay alive. i’m sure you think you’re at a breaking point but i know you can keep going. don’t give up, maybe this is a sign you’re gonna be okay.

There's a verse in here that's also in Fall Away.
2:22

OH MY OHMY OH MYYYYYY, FALL APART AT 2:20

I’m gonna kill myself, I don’t know when or how, but at age 13 I’m slowly drowning and it’s painful. I’m only good at playing the drums and I’m not even that good at it. I’m failing my classes. I’m not doing homework cos I’m to busy listening to music and crying. My behaviours getting worse. I’m on a waiting list for therapy but I’ll have to kill myself to get actual help.
