| | |In the context of the song, ''anathema'' refers to a curse. Throughout “Anathema,” the narrator broods over the human condition and laments the fact that, as humans, we are naturally inclined to want what is considered to be evil. | ||
The song opens with a subdued keyboard and minimal percussion. As the song progresses, it slowly opens up, gaining more momentum and energy until finally reaching a climax drenched with heavy electronics during the bridge. That high energy is sustained for the third verse, creating a unique contrast of sound throughout the track. | |||
The third verse is recycled from a song called “Blasphemy” on Tyler Joseph’s 2008 solo project, ''No Phun Intended''. [https://genius.com/Twenty-one-pilots-anathema-lyrics <nowiki>[2]</nowiki>] | |||
