"Jumpsuit" lyrics

"Jumpsuit"

Cover me, oh!

I can't believe how much I hate
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
Jumpsuit, jumpsuit, cover me

Spirits in my room, friend or foe?
Felt it in my youth, feel it when I'm old
Jumpsuit, jumpsuit, cover me
Dusting off my jumpsuit
(Cover me)

I can't believe how much I hate (Cover me, oh)
Pressures of a new place roll my way (Cover me, oh)
Jumpsuit, jumpsuit, cover me (Cover me, oh)
Jumpsuit, jumpsuit, cover me (Cover me, oh)

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 (I'll stop my plans)
But you'll have to tie me down and then break both my hands
If you need anyone
I'll be right there
But you'll have to grab my throat and lift me in the air
(If you need anyone)
If you need anyone (If you need anyone)
If you need anyone (If you need anyone)
If you need anyone

I can't believe how much I hate
Pressures of a new place roll my way
Jumpsuit, jumpsuit, cover me
Oh, jumpsuit, jumpsuit, cover me, oh!

Jumpsuit, jumpsuit, cover me!
Jumpsuit, jumpsuit, cover me!

"Jumpsuit" is one of the first two singles released on July 11, 2018 to promote Twenty One Pilots' fifth album, "Trench" (2018). The other single is "Nico And The Niners".
Josh Dun explained in an interview with BBC Radio 1 that this song began to evolve from a bass riff Tyler Joseph came up with towards the end of their last tour. He used to play the riff during sound checks before shows.
This track was chosen to be the first single off of the new album following "Blurryface" (2015) since it continues the story. Josh Dun said, "It kind of zooms out a little bit and there is a full narrative. Musically, I'm very excited about it. It continues to be diverse."
"Jumpsuit" is a reference to a yellow jumpsuit Clancy uses to escape the city of Dema. Dema is a fictional walled city ruled by nine bishops, one of which can be seen wearing a red hood in the music video for this song. Clansy is a character who wants Dema to be free from bishops.
Josh Dun elaborated upon a background of this song by saying, "...it is kind of like picking up with where Blurryface ended. So it felt like the first track back to kind of bridge that gap and go from one record to the next."
The official music video was premiered on the 11th of July 2018.
