Lyrics

Album version
[Intro]

No-no-no, no-no-no

No-no-no-no-no, no-no-no-no-no

No-no-no-no-no, no-no-no-no

[Verse 1]

Stand up straight now (Ooh)

Can't break down (Ooh)

Graduate now (Ooh)

I don't wanna be here, I don't wanna be here

It's a taste test (Ooh)

Of what I hate less (Ooh)

Can you die of anxiousness? (Ooh)

I don't wanna be here, I don't wanna be here

What's about to happen?

What's about to happen?

[Chorus]

I remember

I remember certain things

What I was wearing

The yellow dashes in the street

I prayed those lights would take me home

Then I heard, "Hey, kid, get out of the road!"

[Post-Chorus]

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

I don't wanna be here, I don't wanna be here

[Verse 2]

Can't feel my legs (Ooh)

I might suffocate (Ooh)

There's a pressure in my chest (Ooh)

I don't wanna be here, I don't wanna be here

What's about to happen?

What's about to happen?

[Chorus]

I remember

I remember certain things

What I was wearin'

The yellow dashes in the street

I prayed those lights would take me home

Then I heard, "Hey, kid, get out of the road!"

[Refrain]

(Ohh, woah, oh, oh-woah)

(Ohh, woah, oh, oh-woah, ohh)

Can't change what you've done

Start fresh next semester

[Chorus]

I remember

I remember certain things

What I was wearin'

The yellow dashes in the street

I prayed those lights would take me home

Then I heard, "Hey, kid, get out of the road!"

[Refrain]

(Ohh, woah, oh, oh-woah)

And then he slowed down

(Ohh, woah, oh, oh-woah, ohh)

And rolled down his window

And he said

"Can't change what you've done

Start fresh next semester"

[Outro]

It's a taste test

Of what I hate less

I don't wanna be here

Start fresh with the new year

(Ohh, ahh, oh, oh-woah)

(Ohh, ahh, oh, oh-woah)

Can't change what you've done

Start fresh next semester

Lyrics meaning

Lyrics
“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.[2]
