twenty one pilots- Neon Gravestones [Official Audio]
[00:04.01] "Neon Gravestones"
[00:28.77] What's my problem?
[00:29.53] Well, I want you to follow me down to the bottom
[00:32.01] Underneath the insane asylum
[00:33.51] Keep your wits about you while you got 'em
[00:35.26] 'Cause your wits are first to go while you're problem-solving
[00:37.99] And my problem?
[00:39.26] We glorify those, even more, when they
[00:43.10] My opinion
[00:43.85] Our culture can treat a loss
[00:45.34] Like it's a win and right before we turn on them
[00:47.59] We give them the highest of praise, and hang their banner from a ceiling
[00:51.09] Communicating, further engraving
[00:53.09] An earlier grave is an optional way
[00:55.86] No
[00:57.60] Neon gravestones try to call
[00:59.87] (Neon gravestones try to call)
[01:02.07] Neon gravestones try to call for my bones
[01:06.59] (Neon gravestones try to call)
[01:07.59] Call
[01:08.09] (For my bones)
[01:09.33] Call, call, call
[01:16.63] Call
[01:21.37] Call
[01:26.38] What's my problem?
[01:27.16] Don't get it twisted
[01:28.13] It's with the people we praise who may have assisted
[01:30.61] I could use the streams and extra conversations
[01:32.88] I could give up, and boost up my reputation
[01:35.41] I could go out with a bang
[01:36.87] They would know my name
[01:38.13] They would host and post a celebration
[01:40.13] My opinion will not be lenient
[01:42.94] My opinion, it's real convenient
[01:45.43] Our words are loud, but now I'm talking action
[01:47.43] We don't get enough love?
[01:48.70] Well, they get a fraction
[01:49.94] They say, "How could he go if he's got everything?"
[01:52.19] I'll mourn for a kid, but won't cry for a king
[01:54.99] Neon gravestones try to call
[01:57.49] (Neon gravestones try to call)
[01:59.74] Neon gravestones try to call for my bones
[02:03.99] (Neon gravestones try to call)
[02:04.76] Call
[02:05.51] (For my bones)
[02:06.76] Call, call, call
[02:10.51] Call
[02:11.01] Call
[02:11.56] Promise me this
[02:12.78] If I lose to myself
[02:14.06] You won't mourn a day
[02:16.54] And you'll move onto someone else
[02:18.78] Promise me this
[02:21.04] If I lose to myself
[02:23.54] You won't mourn a day
[02:25.77] And you'll move onto someone else
[02:48.55] (Call)
[02:49.04] (Call)
[02:49.56] Neon gravestones try to call
[02:50.29] (Neon gravestones try to call)
[02:52.54] Neon gravestones try to call for my bones
[02:57.31] (Call, call, call)
[02:58.07] Neon gravestones try to call
[02:59.81] (Neon gravestones try to call)
[03:02.06] Neon gravestones try to call for my bones
[03:07.31] But they won't get them
[03:12.05] No, they won't get them
[03:13.05] They won't get them
[03:13.82] But they won't get them
[03:16.31] Don't get me wrong
[03:17.79] The rise in awareness
[03:19.05] Is beating a stigma that no longer scares us
[03:21.10] But for sake of discussion
[03:22.38] In spirit of fairness
[03:23.63] Could we give this some room for a new point of view?
[03:26.10] And, could it be true that some could be tempted
[03:28.60] To use this mistake as a form of aggression?
[03:31.12] A form of succession?
[03:32.11] A form of a weapon?
[03:33.35] Thinking "I'll teach them"
[03:34.61] Well, I'm refusing the lesson
[03:35.85] It won't resonate in our minds
[03:37.33] I'm not disrespecting what was left behind
[03:40.60] Just pleading that "it" does not get glorified
[03:42.68] Maybe we swap out what it is that we hold so high
[03:45.15] Find your grandparents or someone of age
[03:47.63] Pay some respects for the path that they paved
[03:50.15] To life, they were dedicated
[03:52.39] Now, that should be celebrated
