Two is the 16th track on the album, Regional at Best (Newsletter Edition)
Background
This song is (from what I’ve heard) about how the other original remaining member of the band (Nick Thomas) had left, and it was only Tyler Joseph and Josh Dun. Both Tyler and Josh had doubts about being able to put on a show with only two people, and were really disheartened and unsure of the band’s future now that they were only two. “I’m two” is Joseph talking about how the band is only two; “Be gone, you see rain,” is speaking to how Nick left the band because he wasn’t sure that it would sustain him in the future, which is a valid concern. 'Two' is essentially about how Twenty One Pilots as a band was in a very uncertain state during this time. [1]

“Two” was released in 2011 as one of their newsletter tracks. This song is about how the other original remaining member of the band had left, and it was only Tyler and Josh. Both Tyler and Josh had doubts about being able to put on a show with only two people, and were really disheartened and unsure of the band’s future now that they were only two.
The song bears more meaning through the instrumentals/vocals. The lyrics describe the fragile state of the band, but the instrumentals and vocals really highlight the emotion that influenced these words to be said in the first place. Generally the band tends to mask their emotion with positive instrumentals and vocals while the emotion is laced within the meaning of the words, but this song is truly an exception. [2] |
