Be Concerned is the 13th track on the album, Regional at Best

Background

“Be Concerned” is about how Tyler has begun to question his faith. It appears that it documents a hard time Tyler went through, but eventually overcame, as Tyler’s faith still illuminates even his more recent lyrics that the band has released.

Like a handful of other tracks from Regional at Best, this song was not included in its 2013 remastered successor, Vessel. While the song bears dense lyrical content, it has never been a huge fan-favorite, and it would make sense that Tyler wouldn’t want to constantly reflect on such a negative time in his life.

“Be Concerned” also features Tyler’s friend Jocef of the Jocef Michael Band, an Ohio-based Christian group. [1].

Lyrics

Album version
[Intro: Tyler Joseph]

Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa

Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa

Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa

Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa


[Verse 1: Tyler Joseph]

Where'd you go, huh? They all think I know ya

It's so hard to motivate me to devote

A single inch of me to something I can't see

I don't mean to pry but why would you even make the eyes?

I don't believe my ears and I'm scared of my own head

I will deny you for years then I'll make you raise me from the dead

And if I said that I would live for you for nothing in return

Well, I'm sorry, Mr. Gullible, but lying's all I've learned


[Refrain: Tyler Joseph]

So be concerned

(Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa)

So be concerned

(Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa)


[Verse 2: Jocef]

Uh, uh

No music, and I can talk about anything

Whether or not it's worthwhile, it’s based on who's listenin'

Most of us listen if it's something we can relate to

All of us relate if it's something we've just been through

Taken for granted, trust is damaged and now we panic

Livin' empty handed, livin' lives like we can manage

I can't feel you, but still know where home is, feeling like Jonah did

Almost dropped the bat like every base was fully loaded


[Refrain: Jocef, Tyler Joseph]

So be concerned, yeah (Uh-huh, uh-huh)

(Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa)

So be concerned (Yeah, yeah)

(Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa)

You should, yeah

[Verse 3: Tyler Joseph]

(Okay, alright, um)

I am disappearing inside my bird's eye theories

I tried to say goodbye, defy, and deny what it is I'm fearing

Clearly, I am dying, dearly, I am writing, merely testifying

That a test to fly requires, I pass the test with colors flying

I don't believe you most the time

I'm lying 'cause I say I am fine (Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa)

You are the pearl, I am the swine

So break my life and take this rhyme (Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa)

I'm so sorry but I do believe

That all my bridges I have burned

And I've earned a policy of no-return


[Refrain: Tyler Joseph]

So be concerned

(Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa)

So be concerned

(Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa)

So be concerned

(Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa)

So be concerned

(Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa)


[Outro: Tyler Joseph]

Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa

Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa

Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa

Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa

Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa

Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa
