When we analyze Routines In The Night, we realize that this is one of the songs written by Tyler that dives deep into the nocturnal restlessness that surfaces while the world sleeps. The lyrics describe a lonely journey through memories and thoughts, symbolized by walking through the corridors of the mind. The doors with “STAY OUT” painted on them in white represent mental barriers or traumas that the narrator prefers to avoid. This powerful metaphor suggests that, while everyone else is asleep, Tyler is stuck in a routine of introspection and self-analysis, facing his inner demons.


The song also addresses loneliness and the company search, even if it's just the comforting presence of one's recurring thoughts. The phrase “It's tough to find good company” highlights the difficulty of finding a friendly shoulder or even understanding, both in the real world and in the internal world. However, the narrator seems to find a kind of solace in the familiarity of these nocturnal routines, even if they are disturbing.
The song, therefore, is a reflection on the complexity of the human mind and the continuous struggle to find peace and understanding within oneself. This especially when we carry traumas, fears, and desires to belong somewhere or to have a genuine connection with someone else while dealing with our demons and the days go by on autopilot.

The world’s asleep/I walk around instead signifies Tyler is either struggling with sleepless nights (insomnia) or is lucid dreaming/exploring his mind.
In the second verse, Tyler illustrates insomnia caused by a worsened mental health state, which he mentions throughout the album in songs like “Navigating.” Tyler has written about these “REM cycle skips” before in countless other songs, such as [[Ode To Sleep|''Ode to Sleep'']]:

Regardless, this individual, whether it be family, friend, or something else, is keeping him company during late hours of the night as he walks down the halls - a metaphor for the corners of his mind explored in the chorus.

Background

When we analyze Routines In The Night, we realize that this is one of the songs written by Tyler that dives deep into the nocturnal restlessness that surfaces while the world sleeps. The lyrics describe a lonely journey through memories and thoughts, symbolized by walking through the corridors of the mind. The doors with “STAY OUT” painted on them in white represent mental barriers or traumas that the narrator prefers to avoid. This powerful metaphor suggests that, while everyone else is asleep, Tyler is stuck in a routine of introspection and self-analysis, facing his inner demons.

The song also addresses loneliness and the company search, even if it's just the comforting presence of one's recurring thoughts. The phrase “It's tough to find good company” highlights the difficulty of finding a friendly shoulder or even understanding, both in the real world and in the internal world. However, the narrator seems to find a kind of solace in the familiarity of these nocturnal routines, even if they are disturbing.

The song, therefore, is a reflection on the complexity of the human mind and the continuous struggle to find peace and understanding within oneself. This especially when we carry traumas, fears, and desires to belong somewhere or to have a genuine connection with someone else while dealing with our demons and the days go by on autopilot. [1]

Lyrics

Album version
[Chorus]

Walk the layout, routines in the night

Some doors have "Stay out" spray-painted in white

While all the world's asleep, I walk around instead

Through the memories, down the halls of my head

Walk the layout, routines in the night

Some doors have "Stay out" spray-painted in white

While all the world's asleep, I walk around instead

Through the memories, down the halls of my head

[Verse 1]

Here comes a new night, but I'll send it through

I'll probably jump on the next one

I'm testing the limits of what a mind can do

I'm keeping my eyelids up, no mattеr what

[Pre-Chorus]

So beautiful, the space bеtween

A painful reminder and a terrible dream

I've been here before and I've got time

I'll give you the tour, show you why I

[Chorus]

Walk the layout, routines in the night

Some doors have "Stay out" spray-painted in white

While all the world's asleep, I walk around instead

Through the memories, down the halls of my head

[Verse 2]

Reoccurring, keeps comin' around

REM cycle skip, night psycho trip

It's reassuring you keep comin' around

It's tough to find good company

Reoccurring, days blurring

I'm still learning what this is (What this is, what this is, what this is)

Just keep me company

[Pre-Chorus]

So beautiful, the space between

A painful reminder and a terrible dream

I've been here before and I've got time

I'll give you the tour, show you why I

I'll show you why I

I'll show you why I

[Chorus]

Walk the layout (The layout), routines in the night (In the night)

Some doors have "Stay out" ("Stay out") spray-painted in white (In white)

While all the world's asleep (All the world), I walk around instead

Through the memories, down the halls of my head

Walk the layout, routines in the night

Some doors have "Stay out" spray-painted in white

While all the world's asleep (All the world), I walk around instead

Through the memories, down the halls of my head

[Outro]

(Keeps comin' around, keeps comin' around, keeps comin' around)

(Lost in the halls of my head)

(Keeps comin' around, keeps comin' around, keeps comin' around)

(Lost in the halls of my head)

Rough draft version
Walk the layout, routines in the night

Somebody wrote stay out, spray painted in white // Some doors will have Stay out, spray painted in white

While

All the world's asleep, I walk around instead

Lucid memories, down the halls of my head


All your world will fade, try to fight the vignette

There's no other way, there's still fight in you yet


Floor shifts out, from the center of the room

Slides beneath the wall, things are falling to their doom

Spirits, hopes, and energies are sucked in to the floor

I'm trapped against the wall that stands opposite the door

Then a black wire, comes out of the outlet by my leg

Keeping me in place, no matter how much I would beg

So I reach out, no more logic, no more facts

Lyrics
Routines In The Night, the fifth track on the album, Clancy, was released on May 24th, 2024.

This song describes further a recurring theme in the album and Twenty One Pilots' discography of fighting your demons at the night. This song narrates how one struggles to fall asleep and stays in the maze of mind.

During the premier livestream it was revealed that Tyler did not want to include Routines In The Night in the album but Josh convinced him to keep it, together with Navigating.

Tyler portrays his mind as some sort of building you can walk around. Each door leading to a room represents a dream or you could also say a memory. Some have “STAY OUT” spray painted, because they’re bad memories/nightmares you don’t want to go back to. The world’s asleep/I walk around instead signifies Tyler is either struggling with sleepless nights (insomnia) or is lucid dreaming/exploring his mind.

In the second verse, Tyler illustrates insomnia caused by a worsened mental health state, which he mentions throughout the album in songs like “Navigating.” Tyler has written about these “REM cycle skips” before in countless other songs, such as Ode to Sleep: "I’ll stay awake ‘cause the dark’s not taking prisoners tonight"

With the mention of “you”, Tyler seems to be speaking to someone… or something. It may seem coincidental, but considering the inclusion of “blurryface" in the cover art for the album, he could be speaking about the character Blurryface, a personification of Tyler’s mental health that titled their hit album Blurryface.

Regardless, this individual, whether it be family, friend, or something else, is keeping him company during late hours of the night as he walks down the halls - a metaphor for the corners of his mind explored in the chorus. [2]
