Ностальгия по детству, когда не было тревог: «хотел бы вернуться в старые добрые дни», когда мама пела колыбельные, а не приходилось думать о деньгах и чужом мнении. Персонаж Blurryface — голос неуверенности.
Intro: F Dm | Am }x2
F Dm
I wish I found some better sounds no one’s ever heard,
Am
I wish I had a better voice and sang some better words.
F Dm
I wish I found some chords in an order that is new,
Am
I wish I didn't have to rhyme every time I sang.
F Dm
I was told when I get older all my fears would shrink,
Am
But now I’m insecure, and I care what people think.
F Dm Am
My name’s ‘Blurryface’, and I care what you think.
F Dm Am
My name’s ‘Blurryface’, and I care what you think.
Chorus:
F C/E Am E Am
Wish we could turn back time to the good old days,
G C E
When our mamas sang us to sleep, but now we’re stressed out.
Am G C E Am
Oh, wish we could turn back time, oh, to the good old days,
G C E
When our mamas sang us to sleep, but now we’re stressed out,
Instrumental: F Dm | Am
Am
We’re stressed out.
Instrumental: F Dm | Am
Am G
Sometimes a certain smell will take me back to when I was young.
Dm C
How come I’m never able to identify where it’s coming from?
Am G
I’d make a candle out of it if I ever found it.
Dm C
Try to sell it, never sell out of it, I’d probably only sell one.
Am G
It’d be to my brother, ‘cause we have the same nose.
Dm C
Same clothes, homegrown, a stone’s throw from a creek we used to roam.
F Dm
But it would remind us of when nothing really mattered,
Am
Out of student loans and treehouse homes, we all would take the ladder.
F Dm Am
Uh, my, my name’s ‘Blurryface’, and I care what you think.
F Dm Am
My name’s ‘Blurryface’, and I care what you think.
Chorus:
F C/E Am E Am
Wish we could turn back time to the good old days,
G C E
When our mamas sang us to sleep, but now we’re stressed out.
Am G C E Am
Oh, wish we could turn back time, oh, to the good old days,
G C E
When our mamas sang us to sleep, but now we’re stressed out.
Am G
We used to play pretend, give each other different names,
C E
We would build a rocket ship and then we’d fly it far away.
Am G
Used to dream of outer space but now they’re laughing out their face,
C E
Saying, “Wake up, you need to make money.” Yo!
Am G
We used to play pretend, give each other different names,

Saying, “Wake up, you need to make money.” Yo!

F Dm
We used to play pretend, used to play pretend money,
Am
We used to play pretend, wake up, you need the money.
F Dm
We used to play pretend, used to play pretend money,
Am
We used to play pretend, wake up, you need the money.
F Dm
We used to play pretend, give each other different names,
Am
We would build a rocket ship and then we’d fly it far away.
F Dm
Used to dream of outer space but now they’re laughing out their face,
Am
Saying, “Wake up, you need to make money.” Yo!

- Продюсер Майк Элизондо отговаривал Тайлера от строчки «My name is Blurryface», считая, что слушатели не поймут — но Тайлер настоял. Песня стала первым рок-треком, набравшим миллиард прослушиваний на Spotify. Клип снимали у детского дома Джоша Дана в Огайо.
