[Verse 1]
You know
I've always been collected, calm and chill
And you know
I never look for conflict for the thrill

[Refrain]
But if I'm feelin'
Someone steppin' towards you, can't describe
Just what I'm feelin'

[Chorus]
For you, I'd go
Step to a dude much bigger than me
For you, I know
I would get messed up, weigh 153
For you
I would get beat to smithereens

[Verse 2]
You know
I'll be in the corner takin' notes
And you know-ow
I got your six while you're workin' votes

[Refrain]
But if I'm feelin'
Someone steppin' towards you, can't describe
Just what I'm feelin'

[Chorus]
For you, I'd go
Step to a dude much bigger than me
For you, I know
I would get messed up, weigh 153
For you
I would get beat to smithereens

[Post-Chorus]
I would get beat
I would get beat
I would get beat

[Refrain]
'Cause if I'm feelin'
Someone steppin' towards you, can't describe
Just what I'm feelin'

[Outro]
For you, I'd go
Write a slick song just to show you the world
For you, I know
They think it's messed up to sell out for your girl
For you, I'd go
Step to a dude much bigger than me
For you, I know
I would get messed up, weigh 153
For you
I would get beat
Yeah, I would get beat for you
I would get beat
Yeah, I would get beat for you
I would get beat to smithereens

twenty one pilots (also stylized as twenty øne piløts, TWENTY ØNE PILØTS, twenty | one | pilots, and TØP) consists of vocalist, pianist, bassist, and ukulele player Tyler Joseph and his best friend Josh Dun, who plays the drums and trumpet. The band’s genre is difficult to define, but best described as indie pop, with elements of rap, hip hop and rock. Fans have proclaimed their own music genre as “Schizoid Pop.”

The name twenty one pilots was inspired by the Arthur Miller play, All My Sons, a play about a man whose choice to send out faulty airplane parts for the good of his business and family caused the death of twenty-one pilots during World War II. The aspect of the play which influenced the band is the moral decisions and consequences that come with everyday decisions. Thus, the band fights the constant battle between man and mental illness.

Basically, we are all responsible for the preservation of our personal joy; but happiness is different. Joy is not circumstantial, happiness is.
