Cover art for Forest lyrics by Twenty One Pilots

i agree with most of these comments however i feel like i should add one thing. the rap should be reviewed once again.

"quickly moving towards the storm moving forward torn into pieces over reasons of what these storms are for" im not 100% sure but it seems like he is saying that he left his forest, his happy place, and now its harder to get back there. so now he is walking into the storm & he is coming apart. he isnt mainly coming apart because of the storm itself, he is coming apart after trying to fix the storm.

"i dont understand why everything i adore takes a different form when i squint my eyes" i guess you could say his forest is like his car radio was. it distracted him from the bad aspects of life & when it was gone, he had time to think. now that he is outside of the forest, he is thinking. his forest also blinded him (like the effect of rose colored glasses: where you can only see what you want to see aka the good). when he was in the forest he could only see the good aspects & now that he is outside of the forest, he isnt blinded anymore.

"have you ever done that where you squint your eyes & your eyelashes make it look a little not right & then just enough light comes from just the right side & you find youre not who youre supposed to be?" still outside of his forest, he is now seeing everything so clearly now & he finds out that the person that he has been all of his life is not who he is supposed to be

"this is not what youre supposed to see please remember me i am supposed to he king of a kingdom swinging on a swing" he isnt supposed to be the person he thought he was. he is worth more

"something happened to my imagination this situations becoming dire" his imagination was what was blinding him. he is saying now it is gone & the situation is real and clear.

"my treehouse is on fire & for some reason i smell gas on my hands this is not what i had planned this is not what i had planned" he realised that he had caused this storm involuntarily & he wants to go back to his forest where everything was good
