Be Concerned Lyrics

[Refrain: Jocef, Tyler Joseph]
So be concerned, yeah (Uh-huh, uh-huh)
(Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa)
So be concerned (Yeah, yeah)
(Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa)
You should, yeah

[Verse 3: Tyler Joseph]
(Okay, alright, um)
I am disappearing inside my bird's eye theories
I tried to say goodbye, defy, and deny what it is I'm fearing
Clearly, I am dying, dearly, I am writing, merely testifying
That a test to fly requires, I pass the test with colors flying
I don't believe you most the time
I'm lying 'cause I say I am fine (Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa)

You are the pearl, I am the swine
So break my life and take this rhyme (Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa)
I'm so sorry but I do believe
That all my bridges I have burned
And I've earned a policy of no-return


[Refrain: Tyler Joseph]
So be concerned
(Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa)
So be concerned
(Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa)
So be concerned
(Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa)
So be concerned
(Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa)
[Outro: Tyler Joseph]
Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa
Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa
Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa
Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa
Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa
Who-o-o-oa, who-o-oa

About

Genius Annotation

“Be Concerned” is about how Tyler has begun to question his faith. It appears that it documents a hard time Tyler went through, but eventually overcame, as Tyler’s faith still illuminates even his more recent lyrics that the band has released.

Like a handful of other tracks from Regional at Best, this song was not included in its 2013 remastered successor, Vessel. While the song bears dense lyrical content, it has never been a huge fan-favorite, and it would make sense that Tyler wouldn’t want to constantly reflect on such a negative time in his life.

“Be Concerned” also features Tyler’s friend Jocef of the Jocef Michael Band, an Ohio-based Christian group.
