Background

“Vignette” is the 6th track from Twenty One Pilots' 2024 album, “Clancy”. The lyrics speak of addiction, with common excuses and traits among addicts being depicted.

During the premier livestream, Tyler spoke about Vignette, saying:

[T]here’s a few interpretations of it. I think for me, it makes the most sense when I look at it from the perspective of addiction, and what that can feel like at times. A certain type of season of that and that’s why this song is very special to me. [1]

Lyrics

Album version
[Verse 1]

Not sure when it started, peelin' from his bones

Piece it back together all alone

Hope it held together long enough for he

To pitch the greener grasses and hope that she would agree

Fresh off a binger in the woods

Flesh covered in bites

Testing what is real, what is good

Man, it's been a long night


[Pre-Chorus]

It's a tribute to zombies of which I've become

Where do I go from here?

Where do I go from here?


[Chorus]

Clinging to promises

Fighting off the vignette

Tunnels cave, visions fade

Swallowed by the vignette


[Verse 2]

He's thinking, "There's no way I'm headed there"

Always sure-footed, educated, and was never scared

Now he can't hold out his hand without it shaking

Hounded by a bunch of dead when the search party found him

Fresh off a binger in the woods

Flesh covered in bites

Testing what is real, what is good

Man, it's been a long night


[Pre-Chorus]

It's a tribute to zombies of which I've become

Where do I go from here?

Where do I go from here?


[Chorus]

Clinging to promises

Fighting off the vignette

Tunnels cave, visions fade

Swallowed by the vignette


[Post-Chorus]

No, not me, it's for a friend (Ooh)

No-no, not me, it's for a friend (Ooh)

No, not me, it's for a friend (Ooh)

No-no, not me, it's for a friend, denial


[Chorus]

Clinging to promises

Fighting off the vignette

Tunnels cave, visions fade

Swallowed by the vignette


[Post-Chorus]

No, not me, it's for a friend (Ooh)

No-no, not me, it's for a friend (Ooh)

No, not me, it's for a friend (Ooh)

No-no, not me, it's for a friend, denial

No, not me, it's for a friend

No-no, not me, it's for a friend

No, not me, it's for a friend

No-no, not me, it's for a friend, denial

Rough draft version
It's a tribute to zombies

Of which I've become

I grappled with fallacies

And I lost everyone

Now I'm looking back fondly

From where I came from // At where I am from // At the town I am from

Where do I go from here x2


Not sure when it started, peeling from my bones

Piece it back together, when I was alone

Hope it held together, long enough for me

To pitch the greener grasses, and hope she would agree


Clinging to, a promise made

Fighting off, the vignette

Tunnels cave, vision fades

Swallowed by, the vignette


Fresh, off a binger in the woods

Flesh, covered in scabs and bites

Testing what he does and what he should // Testing if it's real, if it's good

It's been a long night


He's thinking "There's no way I'm headed there"

Always sure-footed, educated, and was never scared

Now he can't hold out his hand without it shaking, hounded

By his demons, until a search party finally found him
