Congrats to the-mickel for the last one!

Here’s Stressed Out:

I wish I found some better sounds no one's ever heard

I wish I had a better voice that sang some better words

I wish I found some chords in an order that is new

I wish I didn't have to rhyme every time I sang

I was told when I get older, all my fears would shrink

But now I'm insecure, and I care what people think

My name's Blurryface, and I care what you think

My name's Blurryface, and I care what you think

Wish we could turn back time to the good old days

When our mama sang us to sleep, but now we're stressed out (oh)

Wish we could turn back time (oh) to the good old days (oh)

When our mama sang us to sleep, but now we're stressed out

We're stressed out

Sometimes a certain smell will take me back to when I was young

How come I'm never able to identify where it's coming from?

I'd make a candle out of it if I ever found it

Try to sell it, never sell, out of it, I'd probably only sell one

It'd be to my brother, 'cause we have the same nose

Same clothes, homegrown, a stone's throw from a creek we used to roam

But it would remind us of when nothing really mattered

Out of student loans and tree house homes, we all would take the latter

My name's Blurryface, and I care what you think

My name's Blurryface, and I care what you think

Wish we could turn back time to the good old days

When our mama sang us to sleep, but now we're stressed out (oh)

Wish we could turn back time (oh) to the good old days (oh)

When our mama sang us to sleep, but now we're stressed out

[x2]

Used to play pretend, give each other different names

We would build a rocket ship, and then we'd fly it far away

Used to dream of outer space, but now they're laughin' at our face

Sayin', "Wake up, you need to make money, " yeah

Wish we could turn back time to the good old days

When our mama sang us to sleep, but now we're stressed out (oh)

Wish we could turn back time (oh) to the good old days (oh)

When our mama sang us to sleep, but now we're stressed out

We used to play pretend, used to play pretend, money

We used to play pretend, wake up, you need the money

Used to play pretend, used to play pretend, money

We used to play pretend, wake up, you need the money

Used to play pretend, give each other different names

We would build a rocket ship, and then we'd fly it far away

Used to dream of outer space, but now they're laughin' at our face

Saying, "Wake up, you need to make money, " yeah

Congrats to Slight_Literature_67 for the last one, and we’ve made it to Blurryface!

Here’s Heavydirtysoul:

There's an infestation in my mind's imagination

I hope that they choke on smoke 'cause I'm smoking them out the basement

This is not rap, this is not hip-hop

Just another attempt to make the voices stop

Rapping to prove nothing, just writing to say something

'Cause I wasn't the only one who wasn't rushing to say nothing

This doesn't mean I lost my dream

It's just right now I got a really crazy mind to clean

Gangsters don't cry

Therefore, therefore I'm

Mr. Misty-eyed, therefore I'm

Can you save, can you save my

Can you save my heavy dirty soul?

Can you save, can you save my

Can you save my heavy dirty soul?

For me, for me, uh

Can you save my heavy dirty soul?

For me, for me, uh

Can you save my heavy dirty soul?

Nah, I didn't understand a thing you said

If I didn't know better I'd guess you're all already dead

Mindless zombies walking around with a limp and a hunch

Saying stuff like, "You only live once"

You've got one time to figure it out

One time to twist, and one time to shout

One time to think and I say we start now

Sing it with me if you know what I'm talking about

Gangsters don't cry

Therefore, therefore I'm

Mr. Misty-eyed, therefore I'm

Can you save, can you save my

Can you save my heavy dirty soul?

Can you save, can you save my

Can you save my heavy dirty soul?

For me, for me, uh

Can you save my heavy dirty soul?

For me, for me, uh

Can you save my heavy dirty soul?

Death inspires me like a dog inspires a rabbit

Death inspires me like a dog inspires a rabbit

Can you save, can you save my

Can you save my heavy dirty soul?

Can you save, can you save my

Can you save my heavy dirty soul?

For me, for me, uh

Can you save my heavy dirty soul?

For me, for me, uh

Can you save my heavy dirty soul?

Can you save, can you save my, save my

Can you save my heavy dirty soul?

Can you save, can you save my, save my

Can you save my heavy dirty soul?

Congrats to the-mickel for the last one! Vessel went by quick with all the songs carried over from RAB

Here’s Truce:

Now the night is coming to an end

The sun will rise and we will try again

Stay alive, stay alive for me

You will die, but now your life is free

Take pride in what is sure to die

I will fear the night again

I hope I'm not my only friend

Stay alive, stay alive for me

You will die, but now your life is free

Take pride in what is sure to die

I’m not exactly sure who to give credit to for the last one because I think multiple people said the same line and got their comments taken down by Reddit 💀

Did you guys get tickets to Columbus? I was ~16,000th in line and I’m now realizing how lucky I actually was to get a decent seat

Anyways, here’s Fake You Out:

I want to drive away

In the night, headlights call my name

I, I'll never be, be what you see inside

You say I'm not alone, but I am petrified

You say that you are close, is close the closest star?

You just feel twice as far, you just feel twice as far

And I'll fall

And I'll break

And I'll fake

All I wanna

And I'll fall down

And I'll break down

And I'll fake you out

All I wanna

I'm so afraid

Of what you have to say

'Cause I am quiet now

And silence gives you space

I'll never be, be what you see inside

You say I'm not alone, but I am petrified

You say that you are close, is close the closest star?

You just feel twice as far, you just feel twice as far

And I'll fall

And I'll break

And I'll fake

All I wanna

And I'll fall down

And I'll break down

And I'll fake you out

All I wanna

It's the same game today as it always is

I don't give these places fake my name explaining this

And the wrists of my mind have the bleeding lines

That remind me of all the times

I have committed

Dirty, dirty crimes that are perfectly form-fitted

To what I've done and what I'm doing

I'm brewing and losing and spewing infusing

And believe me that's what all the kids are doing

What kids are doing are killing themselves

They feel they have no control of their prisoner's cell

And if you're one of them then you're one of me

And you would do almost anything just to feel free

Am I right, of course I am

Convince me otherwise would take all night

Before you walk away, there's one more thing I want to say

Our brains are sick but that's okay

And I'll fall (I'll fake you out)

And I'll break (I'll fake you out)

And I'll fake (I'll fake you out)

All I wanna

All I wanna

Yeah, and I'll fall down

And I'll break down

And I'll fake you out

All I wanna

Yeah, and I'll fall down

And I'll break down

And I'll fake you out

All I wanna

I'm so afraid

Of what you have to say

'Cause I am quiet now

And silence gives you space

Congrats to N238 for the last one! Here’s The Run and Go:

I can't take them on my own, my own

Pa, I'm not the one you know, you know

I have killed a man and all I know

Is I am on the run and go

Don't wanna call you in the nighttime

Don't wanna give you all my pieces

Don't wanna hand you all my trouble

Don't wanna give you all my demons

You'll have to watch me struggle

From several rooms away

But tonight I'll need you to stay

[x7]

Do-do-do-do, do-do-do-do

Do

I am up against the wall, the wall

Pa, I hear them coming down the hall

I have killed a man and all I know

Is I am on the run and go

Don't wanna call you in the nighttime

Don't wanna give you all my pieces

Don't wanna hand you all my trouble

Don't wanna give you all my demons

You'll have to watch me struggle

From several rooms away

But tonight I'll need you to stay

Cold nights under siege from accusations

Cerebral thunder in one-way conversations

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh

Don't wanna call you in the nighttime

Don't wanna give you all my pieces

Don't wanna hand you all my trouble

Don't wanna give you all my demons

You'll have to watch me struggle

From several rooms away

But tonight I'll need you to stay

[x4]

Tonight, I'll need you to stay

Congrats to Live-Ship-7567 for the last one! Sorry for getting the post up a little late today

Here’s Screen:

I do not know why I would go

In front of you and hide my soul

'Cause you're the only one who knows it

Yeah, you're the only one who knows it

And I will hide behind my pride

D-don't know why I think I could lie

'Cause there's a screen on my chest

Yeah, there's a screen on my chest

[x2]

I'm standing in front of you

(Oh) I'm standing in front of you

(Oh-oh-oh) I'm trying to be so cool

Everything together trying to be so cool

I can't see past my own nose

I'm seeing everything in slo-mo

Look out below crashing down to the ground

Just like a vertical locomotive, that's a train

Am I painting the picture that's in my brain?

A train from the sky, locomotive, my motives are insane

My flow's not great, okay, I conversate with people

Who know if I flow on a song, I'll get no radio play

While you're doing fine, there's some people and I

Who have a really tough time getting through this life

So excuse us while we sing to the sky

[x2]

I'm standing in front of you

(Oh) I'm standing in front of you

(Oh-oh-oh) I'm trying to be so cool

Everything together trying to be so cool (I'm standing)

Oh, oh

Oh-oh-oh, mm

[x3]

We're broken, we're broken

We're broken, we're broken people

We're broken people, yeah

Everything together trying to be so cool

(I'm standing) I'm standing in front of you (we're broken, we're broken)

(I'm standing) Oh, I'm standing in front of you (we're broken, we're broken people)

(I'm standing, oh-oh) Oh, I'm trying to be so cool (we're broken people)

Everything together trying to be so cool

Congrats to megplant for the last one! We’re skipping Car Radio since we did it on the RAB list :)

Here’s Semi-Automatic:

Night falls

With gravity

The earth turns

From sanity

Taking my only friend I know

He leaves a lot

His name is Hope

I'm never what I like

I'm double-sided

And I just can't hide

I kinda like it

When I make you cry

'Cause I'm twisted up

I'm twisted up

Inside

The horrors of the night melt away

Under the warm glow

Of survival of the day

Then we move on

My shadow grows taller along with my fears

And my frame shrinks smaller as night grows near

When the sun is climbing

Window sills

And the silver lining

Rides the hills

I will be saved

For one whole day

Until the sun makes the hills its grave

I'm never what I like

I'm double-sided

And I just can't hide

I kinda like it

When I make you cry

'Cause I'm twisted up

I'm twisted up

Inside

I'm never what I like

I'm double-sided

And I just can't hide

I kinda like it

When I make you cry

'Cause I'm twisted up

I'm twisted up

Inside my mind

[x7]

Doo, doo, doo, d-d-doo

Doo, doo, doo, doo

I'm semi-automatic

My prayer's schizophrenic

But I'll live on

Yeah, I'll live on

Yeah, I'll live on

I'm semi-automatic

My prayer's schizophrenic

But I'll live on

Yeah, I'll live on

Yeah, I'll live, yeah, yeah, yeah

I'm semi-automatic

My prayer's schizophrenic

But I'll live on

Yeah, I'll live on

Yeah, I'll live on

I'm semi-automatic

My prayer's schizophrenic

But I'll live on

Yeah, I'll live on

By the time the night wears off

The dust is down

And shadows burn

I will rise and stand my ground

Waiting for

The night's return

I'm never what I like

I'm double-sided

And I just can't hide

I kinda like it

When I make you cry

'Cause I'm twisted up

I'm twisted up

Inside

I'm never what I like

I'm double-sided

And I just can't hide

I kinda like it

When I make you cry

'Cause I'm twisted up

I'm twisted up

Inside my mind

[x7]

Doo, doo, doo, d-d-doo

Doo, doo, doo

Congrats to Evening-Act9460 for the last one!

I think what I’ll be doing for singles will be putting all of them in one list together at the end, after Breach. It’s more convenient to post them that way, and since we already skipped a couple singles, we won’t need to worry about the order.

Here’s House of Gold:

[x2]

She asked me, "Son, when I grow old

Will you buy me a house of gold?

And when your father turns to stone

Will you take care of me?"

I will make you queen of everything you see

I'll put you on the map, I'll cure you of disease

Let's say we up and left this town

And turned our future upside down

We'll make pretend that you and me

Lived ever after happily

She asked me, "Son, when I grow old

Will you buy me a house of gold?

And when your father turns to stone

Will you take care of me?"

I will make you queen of everything you see

I'll put you on the map, I'll cure you of disease

And since we know that dreams are dead

And life turns plans up on their head

I will plan to be a bum

So I just might become someone

She asked me, "Son, when I grow old

Will you buy me a house of gold?

And when your father turns to stone

Will you take care of me?"

I will make you queen of everything you see

I'll put you on the map, I'll cure you of disease

We’ll be skipping Ode to Sleep and Holding On To You since those were already done on RAB :)

N238 raised a great point: what do you guys think we should do about singles? And should we do the singles that are covers as well? I personally think we should do the singles in the order of release (ex. Heathens after Blurryface but before Trench) and leave out the covers, but I’d like to know what y’all want to do.

Congrats to _Alpengl0w_ for the last one! Clear had a lot of interesting lines to say the least

Here’s Migraine:

Am I the only one I know

Waging my wars behind my face and above my throat?

Shadows will scream that I'm alone

I-I-I've got a migraine

And my pain will range from up down and sideways

Thank God it's Friday 'cause Fridays will always

Be better than Sundays 'cause Sundays are my suicide days

I don't know why they always seem so dismal

Thunderstorms, cloud, snow and a slight drizzle

Whether it's the weather or the letters by my bed

Sometimes death seems better than the migraine in my head

Let it be said what the headache represents

It's me defending in suspense, it's me

Suspended in a defenseless test

Being tested by a ruthless examinant

That's represented best by my depressing thoughts

I do not have writer's block, my writer just hates the clock

It will not let me sleep, I guess I'll sleep when I'm dead

And sometimes death seems better than the migraine in my head

Am I the only one I know

Waging my wars behind my face and above my throat?

Shadows will scream that I'm alone

But I know we've made it this far, kid

Yeah, yeah, yeah

I am not as fine as I seem, pardon

Me for yelling, I'm telling you green gardens

Are not what's growing in my psyche, it's a different me

A difficult beast feasting on burnt down trees

Freeze frame please, let me paint a mental picture portrait

Something you won't forget, it's all about my forehead

And how it is a door that holds back contents

That make Pandora's box contents look nonviolent

Behind my eyelids are islands of violence

My mind's shipwrecked, this is the only land my mind could

Find, I did not know it was such a violent island

Full of tidal waves, suicidal crazed lions

They're trying to eat me, blood running down their chin

And I know that I can fight or I can let the lion win

I begin to assemble what weapons I can find

'Cause sometimes to stay alive you gotta kill your mind

Am I the only one I know?

Waging my wars behind my face and above my throat

Shadows will scream that I'm alone

But I know we've made it this far, kid

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah

[x2]

And I will say that we should take a day to break away

From all the pain our brain has made

The game is not played alone

And I will say that we should take a moment and hold it

And keep it frozen and know that

Life has a hopeful undertone

Am I the only one I know

Waging my wars behind my face and above my throat?

Shadows will scream that I'm alone

But I know we've made it this far, kid

We've made it this far

We've made it this

Hey guys, I’ll be carrying on this series because it’s been so fun so far and I have too much free time :) CommissionWitty6177 will be missed |-/

Congrats to Natnat956 for the last one!

First, I don’t know if anyone cares but before anyone comes for me saying that the last one was part 26, I noticed both Trees and Be Concerned were labeled as part 26 so this is technically part 28 and not 27 lol

More importantly, we do need to decide what to do for the Vessel songs that are also on RAB. Personally, I think it’d be redundant to redo them, so I’m thinking skipping them but carrying over the lines from the RAB list makes the most sense. Comment if you’ve got other ideas though!

Anyways, here’s Clear (I kinda love that this is my first one because it’s my personal fav from RAB):

I wish that I had two faces

To prove which theory works

Yelling on a street corner

Or cleverly masking your words

I take my face off at the door

'Cause I don't know who they will take me for

I wonder if I tell 'em what I did last night

Whether or not I got caught, they just might

Wage war on you, therefore it's true

That I shot my general on my side of enemy lines

I'm the son of all I've done

I'm the son of all I've done

Impostor, been fostered

Then my new father drained my dirty blood

I'm the son of all I've done

I'm the son of all I've done

Impostor, been fostered

Then my new father drained my dirty blood, oh

I'm not trying to be lying to you

But it takes a clever guy to do what I do

It takes some chivalry and well-placed energy

To subliminally get yourself inside you

Introspection is the name of this session

Spread this infection, reflect it on the next one

The next one, the next one

And when we're done

We'll all have made something new under the sun

I'm not done, I'm not done yet, no

Kick me off the stage and take my microphone

Then you'll walk up to me and when you get close

I'll look you in the face and say, "where's your home?

Where're you going and why're you here?"

Have you asked these questions? Have you been sincere?

Wanna know what I believe? It's right here

Dig a little deeper and it's crystal clear

I'm the son of all I've done

I'm the son of all I've done

Impostor, been fostered

Then my new father drained my dirty blood

I'm the son of all I've done

I'm the son of all I've done

Impostor, been fostered

Then my new father drained my dirty blood, oh

[x3]

I will tell you what I can

But your mind will take a stand

I sing of a greater love

Let me know when you've had enough
