Don't sacrifice the rest of your life missing me

Wish I could see you happy
Get on with your life without me
Think of me as something beautiful
Not the bitter end
I'm the reason why you're feeling life is broken
So hear me (please hear me)
I don't want your love
Save it for the living
You save it for the living

I want you to fill the emptiness inside while you're alive
I want you to find someone to take my place
I want you to save it for the living
You save it for the living
Save it for the living, ooh
See you on the other side
See you on the other side

Smash Into Pieces - Save it for the living
 
Pay the chicken back, back,
Pay the chicken back,
Pay back the chicken back,
Do the chicken payback
Pay the piggy back, back,
Pay the piggy back,
Pay back the piggy back,
Do the piggy payback
Pay the monkey back, back,
Pay the monkey back,
See the monkey, do the monkey,
Pay the monkey back
Pay the chicken back, back,
Pay the chicken back,
Pay back the chicken back, back,
Do the chicken payback
Pay the camel back,
Sitting on a camel back,
See the camel, do the camel
Pay the camel back
Pay the donkey back, back,
Pay the donkey back,
Payback the donkey,
Payback, payback the donkey
All the animals together break it down let me hear ya!

The Bees- Chicken Payback
 
Come and tell me a story
Back when you were a kid
You were queen of the island
All the things that you did

Show me all of the pictures
The house on the lake
All the kings and royals
And all the friends that you made

She said, "Tell the ones you love, you love them
Turn your minutes into moments
Don't be scared to give away your heart"

But I'm still afraid of the dark
Still scared of my shadow
Still looking for monsters
Under my bed every night

Oh, I wish you were right there
To fight off the nightmares
You were the night light on a dark night, like the stars
I'm still afraid of the dark

Always looking out for me
Always seeing my best
You'd be proud of my story
Now I'm writing the rest

I remember the bedroom
At the end of the hall
I'll be walking beside you
'Til the end of it all

She said, "Tell the ones you love, you love them
Turn your minutes into moments
Don't be scared to give away your heart"

But I'm still afraid of the dark
Still scared of my shadow
Still looking for monsters
Under my bed every night

Oh, I wish you were right there
To fight off the nightmares
You were the night light on a dark night, like the stars
I'm still afraid of the dark

You were the night light on a dark night, like the stars

I'm still afraid of the dark
Still scared of my shadow
Still looking for monsters under my bed
Every night

Oh, I wish you were right there
To fight off the nightmares
You were the night light on a dark night, like the stars
I'm still afraid of the dark

You were the night light on a dark night like the stars
I'm still afraid of the dark

Talk - Afraid of the Dark
 
Through every breath that I breathe
And every place I go
There is a hand that protects me
And I do love her so

There will always be suffering
It flows through life like water
I put my hand over hers
Down in the lime tree arbour

Through every word that I speak
And every thing I know
There is a hand that protects me
And I do love her so

Lime Tree Arbour - Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds
 
Cried like a baby to this a couple of hours ago :confused:

Here we go again
Everything is fine
I guess we could pretend
We didn't cross a line
But ever since that day
Everything has changed
The way I write your name
The cursive letter A
Whenever it may be
That you go on your way
If you really wanna leave
I'll never make you stay
Whatever you decide
I will understand
And it will all be fine
Just go back to being friends
And love is a kaleidoscope
How it works we'll never know
And even all the change
Is somehow all the same
Turnin' to the left and right
Colors shining in your eye
And even upside down
It's beautiful somehow
It's never just a shape alone
Love is a kaleidoscope
And if you ever find
Someone who could write
A better song for you
Well I'd love to see them try
Put it all in words
And sing it all in tune
There's no one else who could
The only one is you
And if you change your mind
I will understand
And it'll just take time
To go back to being friends
And love is a kaleidoscope
How it works we'll never know
And even all the change
Is somehow all the same
Turning to the left and right
Colors shining in your eye
And even upside down
It's beautiful somehow
Every color of the rainbow
Don't be afraid to hold it close
It's never just a shape alone
Love is a kaleidoscope

Kaleidascope - Chappell Roan
 
Everything I've dreamed about is coming on
Trade it for a moment in the sun
All that other noise is just a waste of time
You're the only music on my mind
I don't need money, I don't need to be cool
I'd trade it for a moment in the sun with you

Moment In The Sun - Sunflower Bean
 
When out of a doorway
The tentacles stretch of a song that I know
And the world moves in slow-mo
Straight to my head like the first cigarette of the day

And it's you and it's me
And we're sleeping through the day
And I'm five years ago
And three thousand miles away

Do I have time? A man of my caliber stood in the street
Like a sleepwalking teenager I know
And I dealt with this years ago
I took a hammer to every memento

But image on image like beads on a rosary
Pulled through my head as the music takes hold
And the sickener hits, I can work till I break
But I love the bones of you that I will never escape

The Bones Of You - Elbow
 
Come and tell me a story
Back when you were a kid
You were queen of the island
All the things that you did

Show me all of the pictures
The house on the lake
All the kings and royals
And all the friends that you made

She said, "Tell the ones you love, you love them
Turn your minutes into moments
Don't be scared to give away your heart"

But I'm still afraid of the dark
Still scared of my shadow
Still looking for monsters
Under my bed every night

Oh, I wish you were right there
To fight off the nightmares
You were the night light on a dark night, like the stars
I'm still afraid of the dark

Always looking out for me
Always seeing my best
You'd be proud of my story
Now I'm writing the rest

I remember the bedroom
At the end of the hall
I'll be walking beside you
'Til the end of it all

She said, "Tell the ones you love, you love them
Turn your minutes into moments
Don't be scared to give away your heart"

But I'm still afraid of the dark
Still scared of my shadow
Still looking for monsters
Under my bed every night

Oh, I wish you were right there
To fight off the nightmares
You were the night light on a dark night, like the stars
I'm still afraid of the dark

You were the night light on a dark night, like the stars

I'm still afraid of the dark
Still scared of my shadow
Still looking for monsters under my bed
Every night

Oh, I wish you were right there
To fight off the nightmares
You were the night light on a dark night, like the stars
I'm still afraid of the dark

You were the night light on a dark night like the stars
I'm still afraid of the dark

Talk - Afraid of the Dark

Oh I love him! I was about 15 minutes from buying tickets to see him a few weeks ago. More TALK talk
 
I close my eyes for a second
I thought I was someplace else
Someplace where you couldn't hear me
I was screaming out to you baby

Do you even still see me
As someone good in your life
Or am I standing in the way
Of the things that you really want?

Yeah yeah yeah
Crying in the sunshine
Gothic in the daylight
Crying over you
Crying over you

Yeah yeah yeah
Crying in the sunshine
Weeping like a sunset
Crying over you
Crying over you

Crying In The Sunshine - Miniature Tigers
 
It's been a week since I fell apart
They say it's getting better
But if this is the end, then when was the start?
They say it's getting better

Out of Mind - Magic Man
 
We're the future and the past, we're the only way you're gonna last
We're just pawns in a funny game, tiny actors in the oldest play
It's an angry sea we face, just to get the chance to join the race
Gotta make it, gotta try, gotta get the chance to live and die

We just want to feel the sun and be your little daughter or your son
We're just words that lovers use, words that light that automatic fuse
When that love explosion comes, my, oh my, we want to be someone

Tryouts for the human race - Sparks
 
Dry bones rattle in a lonely soul
Slipped and fell into a deep black hole
I can tell you're lost, I'm here for you
Wildfires burning you down to stone
Blind eyes, turning from a world so cold
A million miles apart, within my reach

It's not like me to worry
But when I see you fading in the dark
I'll leave a light on for you
Through the long nights, I will be right
There for you if you drift too far
I'll leave a light on for you, you, you

The rain comes following an endless drought
To wash away the remnants of all your doubt
I hope that you'll see me looking out

It's not like me to worry
But when I see you fading in the dark
I'll leave a light on for you
Through the long nights, I will be right
There for you if you drift too far
I'll leave a light on for you

Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh

Through the long nights, I will be right
There for you if you drift too far
I'll leave a light on for you, you, you

Lightning crashes
A new mother cries

Her placenta falls to the floor

The angel opens her eyes

The confusion sets in
Before the doctor can even close the door

Lightning crashes
An old mother dies

Her intentions fall to the floor

The angel closes her eyes

The confusion that was hers
Belongs now, to the baby down the hall

Oh, now feel it coming back again
Like a rolling thunder chasing the wind
Forces pulling from the center of the Earth again
I can feel it

Lightning crashes
A new mother cries

This moment she's been waiting for

The angel opens her eyes
Pale blue colored iris presents the circle
And puts the glory out to hide, hide

Oh, now feel it comin' back again
Like a rollin' thunder chasing the wind
Forces pullin' from the center of the Earth again
I can feel it
I can feel it

I can feel it coming back again
Like a rolling thunder chasing the wind
Forces pulling from the center of the Earth again
I can feel it
I can feel it coming back again
Like a rolling thunder chasing the wind
Forces pulling from the center of the Earth again
I can feel it
I can feel it coming back again
Like a rolling thunder chasing the wind
Forces pulling from the center of the Earth again
I can feel it
I can feel it
I can feel it

I'm a goner, somebody catch my breath
I'm a goner, somebody catch my breath
I wanna be known by you
I wanna be known by you

I'm a goner, somebody catch my breath
I'm a goner, somebody catch my breath
I wanna be known by you
I wanna be known by you

Though I'm weak and beaten down
I'll slip away into this sound
The ghost of you is close to me
I'm inside out, you're underneath

I've got two faces, Blurry's the one I'm not
I've got two faces, Blurry's the one I'm not
I need your help to take him out
I need your help to take him out

Though I'm weak and beaten down
I'll slip away into this sound
The ghost of you is close to me
I'm inside out, you're underneath

Though I'm weak and beaten down
I'll slip away into this sound
The ghost of you is close to me
I'm inside out, you're underneath

Don't let me be gone
Don't let me be gone
Don't let me be gone
Don't let me be gone

Don't let me be!
Don't let me be!


Oh, yeah!

I'm a goner, somebody catch my breath
I'm a goner, somebody catch my breath
I wanna be known by you
I wanna be known by you


Goner- Twenty One Pilots


I hope someone who needs this reads it. Idk who cares about this thread. But it's why I don't mock the music someone connects with. It's cathartic. And that makes it incredibly personal.

Twenty One Pilots is my favourite band, and this is my favourite song. But it’s not just a song. Tyler is speaking for everyone who has felt the darkness (Blurryface) take over, and you feel like you're losing yourself. And you want so badly not to. You don’t want to be gone, but it’s too goddamn much. This is not who you are, but it’s who you feel like you’re becoming. Because the darkness is strong. Stronger than you. This is Tyler screaming for help, because it’s too much to fight alone. And it is a daily battle, made more difficult because you feel like you’re battling a part of yourself that you wish didn’t exist and certainly wish wasn’t so powerful. I know I'm a lot when I get this way. And I know as I post this, I have people who are worried sick about me. I have demons I'm fighting. I have the reality to live with that people who should love me unconditionally don't, because I guess they realize now it's not a phase lol. That won't change. And sure, it hurts. And sometimes the darkness wins, and I go to a place I don't like. But it's not because I want to. No one wants to. I am not that darkness, and it will not win. The guy below gets it. If you want to watch, start at 4:30. It's worth it.

This … THIS is why they’re my favourite band and this is why this is my favourite song. Some bands/songs transcend lyrics and melody and instrumentation. Some bands/songs save lives. I mean that literally.
They saved mine.

So while I’m on my soapbox, two things:
1. You can dislike their music, there's nothing wrong with being wrong (lol), but please DO NOT FUCKING MOCK TWENTY ONE PILOTS IN MY PRESENCE! You may not understand why their fanbase is so adamant about how important they are, but they speak to and for everyone who fights darkness every fucking day. So if I get bitchy when they’re made fun of, I’m sorry. It is very personal.
2. This is more important, and has little to do with this song, but if you’ve read this much, you may as well keep going. STOP BEING SO FUCKING SHITTY TO EACH OTHER! You do not know the demons that someone is battling, and choosing to be kind is such a noble thing to do, but it should be our default. You choosing to be kind can LITERALLY change the trajectory of someone’s life. And that is not hyperbole. That is a fact. You could be the only one who pulls that person out of the darkness. You could save a life. Please do not take that power for granted or abuse it. Life's too fucking short for that nonsense.

I love y’all. I really do.
Please … choose kindness

One of my favourite songs ❤️
 
Even when the cold comes crashing through
I'm putting all my bets on you
I hope they never understand us

I put my heart inside your palms
My home in your arms
Now we know nothing matters
Nothing matters

And you can hold me like he held her
And I will fuck you like nothing matters
And you can hold me like he held her
And I will fuck you like nothing matters
