|[Intro]
|[Verse 1]


Mm-mm, mm-mm, mm-mm
When I get home


Mm-mm, mm-mm, mm-mm
You better not be there


[Verse 1]
We're placin' bets you won't


I don't bother anyone
[Pre-Chorus]


Nervous when I stand
Shed your modesty


Chokin' on the circumstance
And the only thing to leave behind


Only smokin' secondhand (Mm-mm)
Is your own skin on the floor


Cut us open, spread us out (Mm-mm)
[Chorus]
 
Don't you shy away (Ah-ah-ah)


Dry us in the sand (Mm-mm)
Manifest a ceiling


Lay the fibers side by side (Mm-mm)
When you shy away (Ah-ah-ah)


And you'll begin to understand (Mm-mm)
Searchin' for that feelin'


[Chorus]
Just like an "I love you" (Ooh, ooh)


I know it's over
That isn't words (Ooh, ooh)


I was born a choker
Like a song he wrote that's never heard (Ah-ah-ah)


Nobody's comin' for me
Don't you sh…


Comin' for me
[Verse 2]


[Post-Chorus]
When you get home


Mm-mm (I know it's over)
You barely recognize the pictures


Mm-mm, mm-mm, mm-mm
They put in a frame


[Verse 2]
[Pre-Chorus]


I don't bother anyone
'Cause you shed your modesty


Never make demands
Don't circle the track


Chokin' on the circumstance
Take what you have


Self-sabotage is a sweet romance (Mm-mm)
And leave your skin on the floor


Seems like all I'm worth is what I'm able to withstand (Mm-mm)
[Chorus]


Sooner I can realize that pain is just a middleman
Don't you shy away (Ah-ah-ah)


[Chorus]
Manifest a ceiling


I know it's over
When you shy away (Ah-ah-ah)


I was born a choker
Searchin' for that feelin'


Nobody's comin' for me
Just like an "I love you" (Ooh, ooh)


[Bridge]
That isn't words (Ooh, ooh)


I see no volunteers to co-sign on my fears
Like a song he wrote (Ah-ah-ah)


I'll sign on the line
That's never heard


Alone, I'm gonna change my circumstance
[Verse 3]


I know I need to move right now
When I get home


[Chorus]
Boy, you better not be there


'Cause I know it's over
You're long gone


I was born a choker
[Pre-Chorus]


Nobody's comin' for me (Only smokin' secondhand)
Shed your modesty


I know it's over
Don't circle the track


I was born a choker
Just break the cycle in half


Nobody's comin' for me
And leave your skin on the floor


Comin' for me
[Chorus]


[Verse 3]
Don't you shy away (Ah-ah-ah)


Like a little splinter buried in your skin
Manifest a ceiling


Someone else can carve it out but when you've got the pin
When you shy away (Ah-ah-ah)


It hurts a little less and you can even push it further in
Searchin' for that feelin'


When your body's screamin' out, trust your mind's listenin'
Just like an "I love you" (Ooh, ooh)


Like a silhouette that you can barely see
That isn't words (Ooh, ooh)


As a shadow cast upon the ground where you'll eventually
Like a song he wrote (Ah-ah-ah)


Lay forever, but the day goes on, the sun moves behind you
That's never heard


You get taller, bolder, stronger, and the rearview only blinds you
That's never heard (Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah)


[Outro]
[Outro]


Mm-mm, mm-mm, mm-mm
An "I love you"
 
That isn't words
 
Like a song he wrote
 
That's never heard
 
Don't you shy away

|“Shy Away” is the lead single from Twenty One Pilots' sixth studio album, [[Scaled And Icy|Scaled and Icy]]. The song is based on a [[https://www.bbc.com/news/entertainment-arts-56665750|conversation]] frontman [[Tyler Joseph]] had with his younger brother where he walked him through his creative process for writing a song. It eventually turned into a letter of advice for his brother, encouraging him to pursue his dreams in the music industry. While Tyler did not specify which brother he was referring to in his interview, it is likely he was speaking about [[Jay Joseph]] since Jay dropped his first solo music, "Drywall", one month prior to ''Shy Away’s'' release.
 
The track was revealed after multiple posters for the band’s [[Scaled And Icy Livestream Concert]] were found on the dmaorg.info website, similar to the way [[Trench]] was announced.<ref>https://genius.com/Twenty-one-pilots-shy-away-lyrics</ref>
