|[Verse 1]
|[Chorus]
I just wanna stay in the sun where I find
They say, "Stay in your lane, boy, lane, boy"


I know it's hard sometimes
But we go where we want to


Pieces of peace in the sun's peace of mind
They think this thing is a highway, highway


I know it's hard sometimes
But will they be alive tomorrow?


Yeah, I think about the end just way too much


But it's fun to fantasize
[Verse 1]


On my enemies who wouldn't wish who I was
They think this thing is a highway


But it's fun to fantasize
If it was our way, we'd have a tempo change every other time change


[Chorus]
'Cause our minds change on what we think is good


Oh-woah-woah, oh-woah-woah, I'm fallin'
I wasn't raised in the hood


So I'm takin' my time on my ride, oh-woah-woah, I'm fallin'
But I know a thing or two about pain and darkness


So I'm takin' my time on my ride
If it wasn't for this music I don't know how I would have fought this


Takin' my time on my ride
Regardless, all these songs I'm hearin' are so heartless


[Verse 2]
Don't trust a perfect person and don't trust a song that's flawless


"I'd die for you," that's easy to say
Honest, there's a few songs on this record that feel common


We have a list of people that we would take
I'm in constant confrontation with what I want and what is poppin'


A bullet for them, a bullet for you
In the industry, it seems to me that singles on the radio are currency


A bullet for everybody in this room
My creativity's only free when I'm playin' shows


But I don't seem to see many bullets comin' through


See many bullets comin' through
[Chorus]


Metaphorically, I'm the man
They say, "Stay in your lane, boy, lane, boy"


But literally, I don't know what I'd do
But we go where we want to


"I'd live for you," and that's hard to do
They think this thing is a highway, highway


Even harder to say when you know it's not true
But will they be alive tomorrow?


Even harder to write when you know that tonight
(Will they be alive tomorrow?)


There were people back home who tried talking to you


But then you ignore them still
[Verse 2]
 
All these questions they're for real
 
Like "Who would you live for?" "Who would you die for?"


And "Would you ever kill?"
I'm sorry if that question I asked last


[Chorus]
Scared you a bit like a hazmat, in a gas mask if you ask Zack


Oh-woah-woah, oh-woah-woah, I'm fallin'
He's my brother, he likes when I rap fast


So I'm takin' my time on my ride, oh-woah-woah, I'm fallin'
But let's backtrack, back to this


So I'm takin' my time on my ride
Who would you live and die for on that list?


Takin' my time on my ride
But the problem is, there's another list that exists and no one really wants to think about this


[Bridge]
Forget sanity, forget salary, forget vanity, my morality


''I've been thinkin' too much''
If you get in between someone I love and me


''I've been thinkin' too much''
You're gonna feel the heat of my cavalry


''I've been thinkin' too much''
All these songs I'm hearin' are so heartless


''I've been thinkin' too much''
Don't trust a perfect person and don't trust a song that's flawless


Help me


''I've been thinkin' too much''
[Chorus]


I've been thinkin' too much
They say, "Stay in your lane, boy, lane, boy"


''I've been thinkin' too much''
But we go where we want to


Help me
They think this thing is a highway, highway


''I've been thinkin' too much''
But will they be alive tomorrow?


I've been thinkin' too much
They say, "Stay in your lane, boy, lane, boy"


''I've been thinkin' too much''
But we go where we want to


[Chorus]
They think this thing is a highway, highway


Oh-woah-woah, oh-woah-woah, I'm fallin'
But will they be alive tomorrow?


So I'm takin' my time on my ride, oh-woah-woah, I'm fallin'


So I'm takin' my time
[Bridge]


Takin' my time on my ride, woah-oh-oh (Woah, yeah)
(But will they be alive tomorrow?)


Oh-woah-woah, oh-woah-woah, I'm fallin'
(But will they be alive tomorrow?)


So I'm takin' my time on my ride, oh-woah-woah, I'm fallin'
(But will they be alive tomorrow?)


So I'm takin' my time on my—
They be alive tomorrow?


[Outro]


I've been thinkin' too much

[Chorus]

They say, "Stay in your lane, boy, lane, boy"

But we go where we want to

They think this thing is a highway, highway

But will they be alive tomorrow?


[Verse 1]

They think this thing is a highway

If it was our way, we'd have a tempo change every other time change

'Cause our minds change on what we think is good

I wasn't raised in the hood

But I know a thing or two about pain and darkness

If it wasn't for this music I don't know how I would have fought this

Regardless, all these songs I'm hearin' are so heartless

Don't trust a perfect person and don't trust a song that's flawless

Honest, there's a few songs on this record that feel common

I'm in constant confrontation with what I want and what is poppin'

In the industry, it seems to me that singles on the radio are currency

My creativity's only free when I'm playin' shows


[Chorus]

They say, "Stay in your lane, boy, lane, boy"

But we go where we want to

They think this thing is a highway, highway

But will they be alive tomorrow?

(Will they be alive tomorrow?)


[Verse 2]

I'm sorry if that question I asked last

Scared you a bit like a hazmat, in a gas mask if you ask Zack

He's my brother, he likes when I rap fast

But let's backtrack, back to this

Who would you live and die for on that list?

But the problem is, there's another list that exists and no one really wants to think about this

Forget sanity, forget salary, forget vanity, my morality

If you get in between someone I love and me

You're gonna feel the heat of my cavalry

All these songs I'm hearin' are so heartless

Don't trust a perfect person and don't trust a song that's flawless


[Chorus]

They say, "Stay in your lane, boy, lane, boy"

But we go where we want to

They think this thing is a highway, highway

But will they be alive tomorrow?

They say, "Stay in your lane, boy, lane, boy"

But we go where we want to

They think this thing is a highway, highway

But will they be alive tomorrow?


[Bridge]

(But will they be alive tomorrow?)

(But will they be alive tomorrow?)

(But will they be alive tomorrow?)

They be alive tomorrow?


[Chorus]

They say, "Stay in your lane, boy, lane, boy"

But we go where we want to

They think this thing is a highway, highway

But will they be alive tomorrow?

They say, "Stay in your lane, boy, lane, boy"

But we go where we want to

They think this thing is a highway, highway

But will they be alive tomorrow?

[Verse 2: Tyler Joseph]

And since we know that dreams are dead

And life turns plans up on their head

I will plan to be a bum

So I just might become someone

And when your father turns to stone

Will you take care of me?"
