@LindseyWo No. The changes that you can distinctly hear in his voice. When it has that deeper, auto-tuned-like sound it's a manifestation of BlurryFace.

Twenty One Pilots – Screen Lyrics 8 years ago
I can't tell you what Tyler meant when he wrote this song but I can tell you what it means to me.

Screen is a song sung to myself. I'm the only person who I trust to "know my soul." I have a hard time processing my emotions so my long-time method of handling them has been lying to myself about how I feel. I religiously live life with a screen on my chest because I've thought it makes it easier. You fool yourself into believing that you're okay and that things that affect you, don't.

"I'm standing in front of you
I'm standing in front of you
I'm trying to be so cool
Everything together trying to be so cool."

I found strength in this false sense that I had my emotions under control. But eventually those delusions were shattered and the screen became transparent. There's a voice in my head which now counters my lies, saying "Why are you trying to lie to yourself? I'm not fooled." I feel like that voice is sarcastically mocking me when Tyler says:

"While you're doing fine
There's some people and I
Who have a really tough time getting through this life
So excuse us while we sing to the sky."

Eventually, I listened to that voice beyond the screen. Because it feels like the first time in forever since I've actually been honest with myself and it helps me to trust myself more (because I don't). The first step to achieving emotional stability (for me) is accepting that:

"We're broken
We're broken
We're broken
We're broken people."

I've been trying to figure out what this song means. When you consider the different parts that Blurryface appears at, it adds a whole different set of layers.
