Twenty One Pilots – Heavydirtysoul Lyrics 9 years ago
Song's are Tyler's way to deal with his problems, and throughout the album, Blurryface, he tells us he might not be alive if he didn't do so.

Heavydirtysoul is a melancholy song; very thoughtful and metaphoric. It reveals how he thinks how he "didn't lose his mind but he has a crazy mind to clean" (he isn't hopeless in this particular track and think he can be fixed) Ironically, songs on the album like "Goner" is the exact opposite, showing how the album is really the brain of Tyler's and how it thinks, but that's a whole another topic.

A bigger purpose of the song is how people look up to him, similar to the infamous "gangsters" that led their people. The entire song compares himself to a gangster, or looked up figure in some people's lives (weather it has a good or bad correlation). Think about your role model, do they cry? Most likely, you think of them as a strong person, but the song's about how people look up to him (Tyler), but he's not a hero, he's a person who has feelings and expresses them. "Gangster's don't cry, therefore I'm Mr. Mistyeye", a play on the term "I just have an itch in my eye, I'm not crying" (or something in that regard).

Like curiazadeh said above, "I hate to be the one to point out the most obvious lyric in the song, but "Death inspires me like a dog inspires a rabbit," means "Death scares me so much that it startles me into action." " Death is an adrenaline rush for him, and seems good in the moment that it is presented but when he's thinking, it's a scary thought.

Because of all his crazy thoughts and emotions, he asks "can you save my heavydirty soul?" Or, purify my thoughts, in simpler terms.

In a nutshell, Heavydirtysoul addresses how although he seems strong, he's emotional and has depressing thoughts in his mind that he wishes weren't there and want's to be saved.

Twenty One Pilots – The Judge Lyrics 9 years ago
As seen before, Tyler (the vocalist of the band) has a constant (but weird) connection with Christianity or more directly, God. As heard before in various songs, specifically "Ode To Sleep", Tyler feels that his purpose in life could be speaking the truth to people through his music. Though he knows what he is seems right in a few instances, there's always that sense of doubt and depression that comes barking back.

Generally, the purpose of the song is of a person asking god to take them or "set them free" from their freezing soul on Earth. The song starts out with what I think is Tyler indirectly referencing himself. The theme of the album is a self-doubting insecure figure in the mind, "Blurryface". The song's begininng is Tyler seeing the dismal good still left inside, but "dismal" and every now and then he forgets to "close his door" and it rarely shines.

The part that starts out with "three lights are lit, but the fourth one's out" shows how blind he seems going through life. There's a light somewhere but the light that he can see is the one that's out; left in the darkness. Instead of venturing more through life, he should of stayed inside his house, referring to the end.

He understands a part of his purpose but is asking God, "why won't you set me free?" To even further convey how desperate he is, he doesn't even care where he goes in the end. "I know my soul's freezing, Hell's hot for good reason." Hell add's to the songs reference to Christianity, but also says that "anything is better then now"

Generally: The meaning of the song is someone wanting to be set free from their life, asking God to take him.

(A lot of stuff)

Twenty One Pilots – Johnny Boy Lyrics 9 years ago
I can't help but think of Johnny, from a popular book/movie "The Outsiders". Johnny was abused by his father and was more of a quiet character. *MAJOR SPOILER IF YOU HAVEN'T READ THIS BOOK*: He was Ponyboy's (the main character) best friend and died after he tried to rescue children from a burning church (I could elaborate more but it's about the song). The point? Johnny died not in vain and was Pony's only friend "Get up Johnny Boy", his thoughts that he can't live without him; he was his "pride and joy".
I think the song definitley relates to this. Someone losing a part of them or a physical person and thinking it's the end, but they carry on.
