Twenty One Pilots – March to the Sea Lyrics 9 years ago
This song I think has a much deeper meaning than what I used to think it was. At first, I thought it was where he was an ordinary guy who fell in love but got his heart broken cause of the lyrics, "but then you put me back in my place, so I might just start another day" for the part of where he got his heart broken but learned it has a much deeper meaning than that. What I think it means is how he is on the walk to suicide. And how there's so many other people who are trying to kill themselves as well. I say this because of the lyrics, "And our ocean graves are just beyond the sand" and "A strangers back is all I see, and he's only a few feet in front of me." Saying there's other people who are making the same decision as him. But I think he is still deciding if he really wants to commit suicide from the lyrics "i ask myself the question why, I fall in line." As if he is asking him the question if he really wants to kill himself. So the song talks about how he is trying to decide to kill himself. Cause of the lyrics "I see a spaceship in the sky and hear a voice inside my head, follow me instead." As if the spaceship is his other voice saying, don't do this, you have so much to do still in your life, follow me instead. And to prove this is inside his mind. "Then the wages of war will start, inside my head with my counterpart." The counterpart being the spaceship that's inside his mind. And wages war as in he is debating what will come out of this and what wont. But at the end "Once again I will be in a march to the sea." Is where they decide at the end, to really commit suicide.
