Holding Onto You - UG Studios Session

Tyler Joseph’s live performance at The Lounge

Oldies Station (Live From The Lounge)

[Verse 1]
They built their towers on broken backs, On stolen lands and railroad tracks. From Congo mines to Bengal fields, They took the gold, ignored the yields. They called it progress, called it trade, But it was blood that their fortunes made. They dressed it up in suits and ties, But we see the truth behind the lies.

[Chorus]
We found out! We know what built your throne. We found out! It’s carved in flesh and bone. Don’t ask us to join the ranks of pain— We won’t be cast aside again. You wrote your wealth on history’s doubt— But yeah… We found out!

[Verse 2]
They built empires with corporate hands, Left ghost towns in forgotten lands. They sold the grind as noble fate, While they dined behind the golden gate. They knew the numbers, knew the cost, But they chose profit over the lost. They knew the pain, they knew the score— But they kept building more and more.

[Bridge]
From sweatshops stitching branded lies, To oil fields under burning skies, From slaves in chains to wage despair, They built their wealth on stolen air. And now they smile, pretend it’s clean, But we’ve decoded the machine. We won’t be cogs, we won’t be ghosts— We’ll rise and haunt your gilded hosts.

[Final Chorus]
We found out! We know what built your throne. We found out! It’s carved in flesh and bone. Don’t ask us to join the ranks of pain— We won’t be cast aside again. You wrote your wealth on history’s doubt— But yeah… We found out!

Yeah, We found Out!

Jaded

song inspired by Beetlejuices and Lydia deetz relationship… 



(Heavy, driving guitar riff with a distorted bassline kicks in, slow and menacing)


(Verse 1 - Lydia's perspective, brooding and low)
Black lace curtains, a world in shades of grey
The living breathe, but they just fade away
They see a child, frail, misunderstood
But in my soul, a deeper darkness stood
Then a whisper, like grave dust on the breeze
Promised chaos, to bring me to my knees
A grinning specter, wild and unhinged and crude
Broke through my quiet, morbid solitude


(Pre-Chorus - Building tension, a sense of forbidden power)
Three times whispered, a name across the void
A chilling bargain, dark and unalloyed
From the dirt, a restless, hungry grin
Pulled me closer to the beautiful sin


(Chorus - Explosive, driving rock with powerful vocals)
OH, THE GHOST AND THE GOTH, A MATCH MADE IN HELL!
A TWISTED BALLET, CAUGHT IN A WITCH'S SPELL!
YOU'RE THE CHAOS I CRAVE, THE SHADOW I KEEP!
WHILE THE MUNDANE WORLD SLUMBERS, OUR SECRETS RUN DEEP!
MY TORMENT, MY SAVIOR, MY BEAUTIFUL LIE!
BENEATH A DEAD MOON, OUR SPIRITS WILL FLY!


(Verse 2 - Beetlejuice's perspective, manic and seductive)
Little Miss Death, you hunger for the fray
You crave the ghastly, every single day
I see the madness, behind those haunted eyes
The perfect bride for my eternal skies
I offer freedom, beyond the flesh and bone
A reign of terror, on a forgotten throne
Just take my hand, let the living scream and flee
Bound by the darkness, bound forever to me!


(Pre-Chorus - More intense, a siren's call)
Three times whispered, a name across the void
A chilling bargain, dark and unalloyed
From the dirt, a restless, hungry grin
Pulled me closer to the beautiful sin


(Chorus - Even more aggressive, raw energy)
OH, THE GHOST AND THE GOTH, A MATCH MADE IN HELL!
A TWISTED BALLET, CAUGHT IN A WITCH'S SPELL!
YOU'RE THE CHAOS I CRAVE, THE SHADOW I KEEP!
WHILE THE MUNDANE WORLD SLUMBERS, OUR SECRETS RUN DEEP!
MY TORMENT, MY SAVIOR, MY BEAUTIFUL LIE!
BENEATH A DEAD MOON, OUR SPIRITS WILL FLY!


(Bridge - Slower, heavier, more sinister, a battle of wills)
You tried to trap me, with your mortal schemes
I tried to claim you, in my fever dreams
A push and a pull, a scream and a roar
We dance on the edge, forever wanting more
No human comfort, no sunlight could mend
The broken bond that refuses to end
A symbiotic sickness, darkly profound
Where only the morbid can ever be found


(Guitar Solo - Fast, chaotic, yet melodic, full of wails and dive bombs, like a tormented spirit flying free)


(Chorus - Final, full-throated, with a primal scream at the end)
OH, THE GHOST AND THE GOTH, A MATCH MADE IN HELL!
A TWISTED BALLET, CAUGHT IN A WITCH'S SPELL!
YOU'RE THE CHAOS I CRAVE, THE SHADOW I KEEP!
WHILE THE MUNDANE WORLD SLUMBERS, OUR SECRETS RUN DEEP!
MY TORMENT, MY SAVIOR, MY BEAUTIFUL LIE!
BENEATH A DEAD MOON, OUR SPIRITS WILL FLY!


(Outro - Music slows and distorts, vocals become fragmented and echoing)
(Whispered, with a growl) Beetlejuice... Beetlejuice...
(Laughter, fading into static and a final, guttural chord)
Never truly free...
(Sound of a distant, monstrous roar, like a sandworm, then silence)

THE GHOST AND THE GOTH ~ Dark Wave

From the old periscope stream, the album "No Phun Intended" contains 19 tracks.
Presented by: Tyler Robert Joseph

Joseph has had a solo project that released an EP entitled No Phun Intended. The release is still available for listening purposes on his PureVolume account. The EP was recorded in Joseph's senior year of high school, from 2007–2008, in his basement. The song "Save", off the release, was redone and released as a free download for a time on Twenty One Pilots' official website before it was then pulled. A single song entitled "Whisper" from his solo career has also been released across the internet.

In 2010, Joseph was featured in the song "Live" by the Christian rapper Jocef, with two other rappers (Juda and Alon). The song is the opening track to Jocef's debut album, In Search Of: L.O.V.E. The track was co-written by Tyler Joseph and Joseph Langston (who is Jocef). Jocef eventually returned the favor a year later by being featured on the song "Be Concerned" off Twenty One Pilots' 2011 Regional at Best.

In 2011, Joseph was also the lead star in Five14 Church's three episode mockumentary entitled "The (moderately inspiring tale of the) Longboard Rodeo Tango". According to the mockumentary, Joseph was an intern at the church at the time.

In 2012, Joseph was featured in an internet-use awareness video entitled "Where are you?" by Mark C. Eshleman (producer of many of Twenty One Pilots' music videos) for an annual contest put on by Trend Micro called What's Your Story? The room used in the video is the same room in which the original music video for "House of Gold" was filmed.

On December 24, 2013, Christmas Eve, Tyler Joseph participated and sang "O come, O come, Emmanuel" at Five14 Church's Christmas With the Stars in New Albany, Ohio. The official video of the performance was uploaded to YouTube on February 14, 2014. He also performed a magic segment with the church's host and emcee David McCreary for the show.

Joseph has also contributed to a few tracks for Five14 Church's worship albums.

In December 2014, Joseph contributed backing vocals to the song "Sickly Sweet Holidays" by Dallon Weekes of Panic! at the Disco.
