I loved Twenty Øne Piløts about a year ago, and I was super into Blurryface when it was released. Stressed Out is one of the most successful songs off that album (though I personally like Polarize and Message Man) because I think the message is easily related to. Hopefully there is no need to listen to this song during the holidays for you, but regardless, happy new year!
There are rap verses in this song, and I'll work around them the same way I am working with Hamilton excerpts. The spoken words will be in [brackets].
[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 was 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,]
[Bun now I'm insecure and I care what people think,]

When our momma 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 sellout 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 treehouse homes we all would take the latter.]

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

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

It doesn't sound right, since I don't know the correct key.
ReplyDeleteThe C before the A in "us to sleep" will be remove by an A, lower then that after.
ReplyDeleteDoes anyone know the notes for the remix of this song?
