Ride
Twentyone Pilots Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I just wanna stay in the sun where I find
I know it's hard sometimes
Pieces of peace in the sun's peace of mind
I know it's hard sometimes
Yeah, I think about the end just way too much
But it's fun to fantasize
All my enemies who wouldn't wish who I was
But it's fun to fantasize

Oh, oh
I'm falling so I'm taking my time on my ride
Oh, I'm falling so I'm taking my time on my ride
Taking my time on my ride

I'd die for you
That's easy to say
We have a list of people that we would take
A bullet for them
A bullet for you
A bullet for everybody in this room
But I don't seem to see many bullets coming through
See many bullets coming through
Metaphorically I'm the man
But literally I don't know what I'd do
I'd live for you
And that's hard to do
Even harder to say
When you know it's not true
Even harder to write
When you know that tonight
There are people back home which are talking to you
But then you ignore them still
All these questions they're forming like
Who would you live for?
Who would you die for?
And would you ever kill?

Oh, oh
I'm falling so I'm taking my time on my ride
Oh, oh
I'm falling so I'm taking my time on my ride
Taking my time on my ride

I've been thinking too much
I've been thinking too much
I've been thinking too much
I've been thinking too much
Help me
I've been thinking too much (I've been thinking too much)
I've been thinking too much (Help me)
I've been thinking too much (I've been thinking too much)
I've been thinking too much

Oh, oh
I'm falling so I'm taking my time on my ride
Oh, I'm falling so I'm taking my time
Taking my time on my ride
Oh, oh, I'm falling so I'm taking my time on my ride
Oh, I'm falling so I'm taking my time on my

I've been thinking too much (Help me)
I've been thinking too much (Help me)
I've been thinking too much (I've been thinking too much)
I've been thinking too much (Help me)
I've been thinking too much (I've been thinking too much)




I've been thinking too much (I've been thinking too much)
Help me

Overall Meaning

The song "Ride" by Twenty One Pilots is a beautiful composition that deals with the highs and lows of life. The song begins with the desire to stay in the sun, which represents a state of happiness and peace of mind. It acknowledges that life is not always easy, but there are moments when it is important to find peace and tune out the noise. The lyrics "Pieces of peace in the sun's peace of mind, I know it's hard sometimes" embodies the sentiment of the need for inner peace to deal with life's challenges.


The song continues to talk about the desire to fantasize about the end of life, which gives a sense of control and escape from reality. The idea of fantasizing about the end of life is not new, and many people indulge in it when life gets hard. Often, it is just a coping mechanism to deal with the present moment. The song also talks about the desire to protect loved ones by taking a bullet for them. The lyrics "A bullet for you, a bullet for everybody in this room" highlights the immense love and loyalty that exists between people.


The song concludes with the artist admitting to thinking too much and feeling overwhelmed. The lyrics "I've been thinking too much, help me" is a plea for help, acknowledging that thinking too much can be overwhelming and a burden that one cannot carry alone.


Line by Line Meaning

I just wanna stay in the sun where I find
I want to be in a place where I feel comfortable and happy


I know it's hard sometimes
I acknowledge that things can be difficult at times


Pieces of peace in the sun's peace of mind
I find moments of calm and contentment in peaceful surroundings


Yeah, I think about the end just way too much
I tend to worry and think a lot about my own mortality


But it's fun to fantasize
However, sometimes it's enjoyable to indulge in creative daydreams


All my enemies who wouldn't wish who I was
I imagine a world where people who dislike me would want to be me instead


Oh, oh I'm falling so I'm taking my time on my ride
I'm experiencing a difficult time, so I'm taking it slow in my journey


Taking my time on my ride
I'm moving at my own pace and not rushing through things


I'd die for you
I care deeply for you


That's easy to say
It's a simple thing to express


We have a list of people that we would take A bullet for them A bullet for you A bullet for everybody in this room
We care so much for the people around us that we'd be willing to risk our lives to protect them


But I don't seem to see many bullets coming through See many bullets coming through
However, we often don't encounter situations where such protection is needed


Metaphorically I'm the man But literally I don't know what I'd do
I may present myself as confident and capable, but in reality I'm not sure how I would handle difficult situations


I'd live for you And that's hard to do Even harder to say When you know it's not true
I care for you deeply and would do my best to support you, but it's difficult to admit when my feelings aren't completely genuine


Even harder to write When you know that tonight There are people back home which are talking to you But then you ignore them still
It's even more challenging to express these feelings when I know there are people close to me trying to communicate with me, but I am avoiding them


All these questions they're forming like Who would you live for? Who would you die for? And would you ever kill?
I'm struggling with my own values and priorities, trying to determine who and what is truly important to me


I've been thinking too much Help me
I've been overanalyzing and obsessing over my own thoughts and emotions, and I need assistance to gain some clarity

just wanna stay in the sun where I find
I know it's hard sometimes
Pieces of peace in the sun's peace of mind
I know it's hard sometimes
Yeah, I think about the end just way too much
But it's fun to fantasize
On my enemies who wouldn't wish who I was
But it's fun to fantasize
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I'm fallin' so I'm taking my time on my ride
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I'm fallin' so I'm taking my time on my ride
Takin' my time on my ride
"I'd die for you" that's easy to say
We have a list of people that we would take
A bullet for them, a bullet for you
A bullet for everybody in this room
But I don't seem to see many bullets coming through
See many bullets coming through
Metaphorically, I'm the man
But literally, I don't know what I'd do
"I'd live for you" and that's hard to do
Even harder to say, when you know it's not true
Even harder to write, when you know that's a lie
There were people back home who tried talking to you
But then you ignore them still
All these questions they're for real, like
"Who would you live for?"
"Who would you die for?"
And "Would you ever kill?"
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I'm fallin' so I'm taking my time on my ride
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I'm fallin' so I'm taking my time on my ride
Takin' my time on my ride
I've been thinking too much
I've been thinking too much
I've been thinking too much
I've been thinking too much (Help me)
I've been thinking too much (I've been thinking too much)
I've been thinking too much (Help me)
I've been thinking too much (I've been thinking too much)
I've been thinking too much
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I'm fallin' so I'm taking my time on my ride
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I'm fallin' so I'm taking my time
Takin' my time on my ride
Whoa, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I'm fallin' so I'm taking my time on my ride
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I'm fallin' so I'm takin' my time on my-
I've been thinking too much (Help me)
I've been thinking too much (Help me)
I've been thinking too much (I've been thinking too much)
I've been thinking too much (Help me)
I've been thinking too much (I've been thinking too much)
I've been thinking too much (Help me)
