    "Addict With A Pen"
    Hello
    We haven't talked in quite some time
    I know
    I haven't been the best
    Of sons
    Hello
    I've been traveling in
    The desert of my mind
    And I
    Haven't found a drop
    Of life
    I haven't found a drop
    Of you
    I haven't found a drop
    Of water
    I try desperately to run through the sand
    As I hold the water
    In the palm of my hand
    Cause it's all that I have
    It's all that I need and
    The waves of the water
    Mean nothing to me
    But I try my best
    And all that I can to
    Hold tightly onto
    What's left in my hand
    But no matter how
    How tightly I will strain
    The sand will slow me down
    And the water will drain
    I'm just being dramatic
    In fact,
    I'm only at it again
    As an addict with a pen
    Who's addicted to the wind
    As it blows me back and fourth
    Mindless, spineless, and pretend
    Of course I'll be here again
    See you tomorrow
    But it's the end of today
    End of my ways
    As a walking denial
    My trail was filed as a crazy
    Suicidal head case
    But you specialize in dying
    You hear me screaming
    Father
    And I'm lying here just crying
    So wash me with your water
    Hello
    We haven't talked in quite some time
    I know
    I haven't been the best

    That speech at the beginning was almost as emotional as the song itself! (And the people in the crowd who shouted 'You're not awkward! You're amazing!' are my heroes tbh.)

    'If you need to close your eyes to get to a better place, you can do that,'
    But Tyler, y'see. Being at a concert, with you, and Josh, and all the fans, would be the best place on earth for me. I'd sing all the lyrics I know, I'd raise my hand and wave it about above my head. I've learnt all the lyrics to all the songs on Vessel, and Blurryface, and most of the self-titled. I have all your songs, including your two EPs. The chance to see this band live would bring me to tears. I'd be so happy, and I'd literally forget about everything happening in the world, in my life.
    And that's why I'm seeing you guys, Twenty days exactly from now. Doors open at 6:30pm. It's going to be the best day of my life.

      I notice it is now after your concert date, how was it? I saw them on 20th of February, best concert of my life. it was an amazing experience I will never forget. I cried during it tbh, and I'm not a very emotional person!

      my phone died seven songs in (their set list was so long too!), but I got to enjoy both worlds: recording it for memories, and watching it without interruption
      from Heavydirtysoul to Trees they were so energetic and so were us all it was just great.
      I love this band so much.
      they're unique and I love them. lots.

      SetoNova VP I only recorded one song, and that was Guns For Hands for my friend who couldn't make it. I like not recording however I don't really have anything to look back on D:
      I struggled to hear Tyler over us all singing, and it was amazing how they involve us so much! They never left us out at all. It was the best concert I've ever been to!

    • @SetoNovaVP

      +Patrick Stumps Fedora |-/ I was kinda of sad they didn't play Ode To Sleep or Message Man, but it's fine. also tiny bit sad nothing from their first two albums was played, but again it's fine. I loved it regardless.

  • @helenciavolella5579
    @helenciavolella5579 Před 9 lety +152

    I am so very happy for Tyler. He finally found people who understand him. People like us, who need to close our eyes to go to a better place, and people who just put their headphones in and imagine that they're not who they normally are, even if it's just for one song. That one song makes people like us, people like Tyler feel okay just for three or four minutes. It might not be long, but it means everything. There isn't a single song that means as much to me as this one does. Tyler and I are two completely different people, but this one song can connect us with him infinitely. And that's just how we are, that's just what the clique does |-/

    Can we all just appreciate how the story Tyler tells at the start links up with what he's doing? Like, he dramatically plays the piano like he's saying with the little old lady, and then stops when he says that she stopped?! Man that is an awesome way to get that point across to a whole audience, Tyler is absolutely brilliant!!

    I was teary-eyed up until the part when tyler yells water in the beginning of the song. At that point I was balling my eyes out. I have heard this song mulitiple times and I love it to death. But whenever I hear it live it hits me harder then usual. I have only been in love with this ban for a year (almost) and they have saved my life. I would probably be dead if it wasn't for them and their music. I love twenty one pilots. Stay Alive Guys |-/
