The end of 2025 hit hard with a combination of insomnia and writer’s block. To combat both, I set myself a challenge: to write a song based on each track on Twenty One Pilots’ self-titled album.
Most of them aren’t… awesome – but they did help get me out of a funk, so they’re worth sharing.
Twenty One Pilots: The 2AM Remixes
Track One: Implicit Demand for Proof
Track Two: Fall Away (CW: suicide attempt)
Track Three: The Pantaloon (CW: death, murder, suicide)
Track Four: Addict with a Pen
Track Five: Friend, Please (CW: suicide attempt)
Track Six: March to the Sea
Track Seven: Johnny Boy (CW: homophobia, assault)
Track Eight: Oh Ms Believer
Track Nine: Air Catcher (CW: death, murder)
Track Ten: Trapdoor (CW: death, murder)
Track Eleven: A Car, A Torch, A Death (CW: death, murder)
Track Twelve: Taxi Cab (CW: substance abuse, drunk driving)
