twenty | one | pilots ☆ Forest

I don’t know why I feed on emotion

There’s a stomach inside my brain

I don’t want to be heard

I want to be listened to

Does it bother anyone else

That someone else has your name?



I scream, you scream

We all scream ’cause we’re terrified

Of what’s around the corner

We stay in place

‘Cause we don’t want to lose our lives

So let’s think of something better.



Down in the forest we’ll sing a chorus

One that everybody knows

Hands held higher, we’ll be on fire

Singing songs that nobody wrote.



My brain has given up

White flags are hoisted

I took some food for thought

It might be poisoned

The stomach in my brain

Throws up on to the page

Does it bother anyone else

That someone else has your name?



Quickly moving towards a storm

Moving forward, torn

In to pieces over reasons

Of what these storms are for

I don’t understand why everything I adore

Takes a different form when I squint my eyes

Have you ever done that

When you squint your eyes

And your eyelashes make it look a little not right

And then when just enough light

Comes from just the right side

And you find you’re not who you’re suppose to be?

This is not what you’re suppose to see

Please, remember me? I am suppose to be

King of a kingdom or swinging on a swing

Something happened to my imagination

This situation’s becoming dire

My treehouse is on fire

And for some reason I smell gas on my hands

This is not what I had planned

This is not what I had planned.
