|“Next Semester” is the second promotional single from twenty one pilots‘ sixth full-length studio album Clancy, following “Overcompensate,” and released alongside the official announcement for The Clancy World Tour—spanning nine months and 14 countries. | |||
As an interpretive song, it is difficult to pinpoint what singer-songwriter Tyler Joseph is getting at exactly, but it is evident that “Next Semester” talks about one’s struggles at a young age to find their place and identity. They are stuck between their mistakes from the past—one of which is presumed to be a failed suicide attempt—and the pressure to not fail in the future. The song and music video seem to act as a sort of “opposite side of the same coin” to their earlier song “Heavydirtysoul” and its music video, particularly the car scenes. Another popular interpretation is that the subject had a panic attack in the middle of the road, only somewhat aware of what was going on, evidenced by the loose details in their recount of the experience. | |||
The band announced and teased “Next Semester” in the days leading up to its release. However, despite the song leaking two days before, it stayed true to its original mid-day release of March 27, 2024.[https://genius.com/Twenty-one-pilots-next-semester-lyrics<nowiki>[2]</nowiki>] | |||
