Twenty One Pilots: Jumpsuit Meaning
Song Released: 2018
Jumpsuit Lyrics
Pressures of a new place roll my way
Jumpsuit! Jumpsuit! Cover me.
Jumpsuit! Jumpsuit! Cover me.
I crumble underneath the weight
Pressures of a new place roll my way
Jumpsuit! Jumpsuit! Cover me.
Dusting...

"I'll be right there/ but you'll have to grab my throat / and lift me in the air / if you need anyone"
"I'll stop my plans / but you'll have to tie me down / and then break both my hands / if you need anyone"
The bridge's lyrics seem to point toward Tyler losing his autonomy. Specifically, his autonomy to either self-harm or kill himself. He's basically saying that if his loved ones need someone to be there for them, he wants to be there, but he needs their help to save him from himself first. -
"I can't believe how much I hate pressures of a new place roll my way" I think that this lyric from 'Jumpsuit' means that Tyler just simply hates the pressures of Dema, which is where all of Tyler and Josh's problems stay, coming his way because Josh never talks about any of his problems so Josh can escape Dema. "Jumpsuit, Jumpsuit cover me" I think this lyric means to hide Tyler from his problems and for him to brush off all his problems and leave them behind him as he goes about his life so he wouldn't have to suffer his whole life. "Spirits in my room, friend or foe?" I think this lyric means that Tyler hears voices but he doesn't know if they're trying to make him commit suicide or if they're trying to help him escape Dema. "Felt it in my youth, feel it when I'm old" Tyler still feels his anxiety since he's been young and he's gonna feel it when he's old. "Dusting off my, Jumpsuit" All of Tyler's problems were on the jumpsuit then he's dusting his problems off and going about his life. "I'll be right there
But you'll have to grab my throat and lift me in the air
If you need anyone" Tyler'll have to be dead before his problems mess with him. "I'll stop my plans
But you'll have to tie me down and then break both my hands
If you need anyone" Tyler'll stop his plans to escape Dema if you break his hands and tie him down because you use your hands for everything.
