Doubt
twenty One Pilots Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Scared of my own image, scared of my own immaturity
Scared of my own ceiling, scared I'll die of uncertainty
Fear might be the death of me, fear leads to anxiety
Don't know what's inside of me

Don't forget about me
Don't forget about me
Even when I doubt you
I'm no good without you, no, no

Temperature is dropping, temperature is dropping
I'm not sure if I can see this ever stopping
Shaking hands with the dark parts of my thoughts, no
You are all that I've got, no

Don't forget about me
Don't forget about me
Even when I doubt you
I'm no good without you, no, no, no, no, no

Gnawing on the bishops, claw our way up their system
Repeating simple phrases, someone holy insisted
I want the markings made on my skin
To mean something to me again
Hope you haven't left without me
Hope you haven't left without me, please

Don't forget about me
Don't forget about me
Even when I doubt you
I'm no good without you, no

Don't forget about me
Don't forget about me
Even when I doubt you
I'm no good without you, no, no, no, no

Hey! Hey!
Don't forget about me, no
Hey! Hey!
Don't forget about me, no
Hey! Hey!
Don't forget about me, no




Hey! Hey!
Don't forget about me, no

Scared of my own image
Scared of my own immaturity
Scared of my own ceiling
Scared I'll die of uncertainty
Fear might be the death of me
Fear leads to anxiety
Don’t know what’s inside of me
Don't forget ab-b-b-b-bout me
Don't forget ab-b-b-b-bout me
Even when I doubt you
I'm no good without you, no, no...
Temperature is dropping
Temperature is dropping
I'm not sure if I can
See this ever stopping..
Shaking hands with the dark parts of my thoughts
No, you are all that I've got, no Don't forget ab-b-b-b-bout me
Don't forget ab-b-b-b-bout me
Even when I doubt you
I'm no good without you, no, no, no, no, no...
Gnawing on the bishops
Claw away at the system
Repeating simple phrases
Someone holy insisted
Want the mark he's made on my skin
To mean something to me again
Hope you haven't left without me
Hope you haven't left without me,
Please...
Don't forget ab-b-b-b-bout me
Don't forget ab-b-b-b-bout me
Even when I doubt you
I'm no good without you, no, Don't forget ab-b-b-b-bout me
Don't forget ab-b-b-b-bout me

No good without you, no, no, no, no,
