Twenty One Pilots Lyrics

"Drum Show"

Putting on a drum show
(Ooh)

Completed checklist for today
Now they have to let you out of your cage
Feeling stuck between a rock and a home
Two places you do not want to go, so, so

He's putting on a drum show
Even now, even now, even now
He'll take the longer way home
Even now, even now, even now
He'll never, ever say so
He drives fast just to feel it, feel it
He drives slow if his song's not over
Drown it out, drown it out

Show
(Ooh)

He'd rather feel something than nothing at all
So he swerves all around as his head starts to fall
Turns it up
Stuck between a rock and a home
Two places he does not want to go, so, so

He's putting on a drum show
Even now, even now, even now
He'll take the longer way home
Even now, even now, even now
He'll never, ever say so
He drives fast just to feel it, feel it
He drives slow if his song's not over
Drown it out, drown it out

I've been this way
I want to change
I've been this way
I want to change!

He's putting on a drum show
Even now, even now, even now
He'll take the longer way home
Even now, even now, even now
He'll never, ever say so
He drives fast just to feel it, feel it
He drives slow if his song's not over
Drown it out, drown it out

I've been this way
I want to change
I've been this way
I want to...

"Drum Show" is the second single from Twenty One Pilots's studio album, "Breach". The song was premiered on August 18, 2025, accompanied by the music video. Tyler Joseph posted the following details on Instagram two day prior, "Our second 'single' (whatever that means anymore) comes out Monday. It's called 'Drum Show' and all I'll say is that Josh might be doing more than just drumming on it."

The bridge of this song marks the first time Josh Dun has a lead vocals on a Twenty One Pilots' song. He told about "Drum Show" on BBC Radio 1's New Music Show, "I think the idea is, like, high school, college, sort of, like, angst when you're driving to and from school or work and music is kind of the only thing that you've got. And sometimes you've just gotta get out all the aggression on the steering wheel."
