twenty one pilots lyrics

Tyler Joseph, 8th April 2013

"One of my favourite things about music, is called progressions. It's called a chord progression, when you have several chords that continue to repeat. And I remember one of the things that draw me to song writing, was how different chords rubbed up next to each other. I had a very elementary understanding of music when I first started writing. I didn't know what to call anything. I barely even know what chords I'm playing right now. There's names for these, but when I looked down, and I saw these keys, and I heard that noise that one of them made, and I pressed another one at the same time, and those two buttons go together for some reason, I realised I could say something and people would hear me. I don't mean to be too dramatic about it. But I want to encourage everyone to create something - try to say something. Those questions I was talking about earlier, I have a lot of big questions, you know, "what's the point?" The further out you zoom out your perspective, the more questions you have. But for some reason, when you create something, when you are part of art, some of those questions begin to be answered. It won't answer everything, but they begin to process. And then maybe by the end of the process, you might find out what you believe. And that's what I hope for you."
