What education do you have in English, your breakdowns are so insightful and interesting.

[@sheershagupta]

The Third Earnest.... It is an EARNEST REQUEST that you react to Cancer by our beloved TOP

[@Glatis]

you should try reacting to Fall Away live at the fox theater

[@yogafrog2052]

Double meaning. “Stay with me, you don’t need to run, stay with me, my blood.” When he performs this in concert, he taps the inside of his forearm near his wrist as he says “my blood” while standing center stage, head up, looking straight out at the audience. Your blood doesn’t need to run. He’s seen cutting scars on his fans when at signings and M&Gs.

[@lanceb247Upload]

Yoga Frog oh damn! That’s very insightful, I’d never thought of it that way before, so I completely missed the double-entendre for so long. Awesome!

[@tarar1998]

Thanks for that. I didnt read into it. That's so deep.

[@criticalthinker72]

Cutting or self harming is a way to release all of the incredibly overwelming emotions that you are unable to regulate. Things are a little different in our brain, growing up with trauma or just being highly sensitive. As horrible as it sounds some doctors say it is incredible how we figured out a way to release the valve. It's so confusing and horrible at times. Literally feeling completely alone in the world and wondering if you have really lost your mind. Once they diagnose you feel like you finally got an answer to a question you have asked yourself your whole life. Trying to learn and live all over again is a very difficult thing to do. Especially since you spent years becoming who you Are personality wise.

[@TheNraveles]

I'm pretty sure he has himself as well. He used to wear rubber bands and bracelets a lot until he got his tattoos.

[@m00nsickn3ssx6]

"Stay alive. Its get better, i promise"

[@ludo_the_BFG]

I think the lions den is a call back to the lions reference in their song "Migraine". IMHO you are BY FAR the best at doing reactions to new music on KZbin. I came for the TOP reviews, but have checked out some of your other videos because your breakdowns are very well thought out. Cheers to continued success!

[@danielbray5499]

And the bible verse

[@yogafrog2052]

Another layer: This is the stronger part of himself reassuring the weaker, more vulnerable part of himself. Multiple metaphors.

[@TheThirdErnest]

Didn’t even think of it like that. See what I mean about multiple interpretations lol

[@yogafrog2052]

I’ve watched the mv and that helped me to see it. All of us TØP crazies appreciate that you’re doing these. Hope your NF and hip hop subs don’t get too pissed at you. lol

[@tmckinley006]

I’d always thought in the “lion’s den” lyric that he was referring to the pin of a grenade. That he’s willing to go to war with that person. I never even considered the double meaning of him pulling his pen in a song-writing context. Good call brother, as per usual.

[@7gng1]

It is pull my pin. Officially. However his interpretation is awesome.

[@TheThirdErnest]

Yeah I think it is pull the pin but as a writer it’s hard to not here pull the pen lol

[@HT-ee8o]

Taylor McKinley I actually thought he meant to make it sound ambiguous. “Pen” could also mean a farm pen aka “come into my farm”. My little guess, we’re all listening to this channel for that kinda kicks. Lol

[@jakekelly6770]

kitchen sink. such an underrated song. very early in his career, but one of my favorites for sure

[@TheThirdErnest]

That’s what people been telling me!

[@rissk3044]

The final “Stay with me, my blood” of the song I heard in his BBC Radio 1 Live Lounge and I was completely blown away. Its what made me realize how much I loved what he does.

[@anatalan9234]

When you decide to start with Trench storyline first react to Heavydirtysoul from Blurryface then to Jumpsuit, Nico And the Niners and Levitate, in that order. And after you bring up yours theories about it, we can give you a whole lote more of other theories to think about🙃 (btw thank you for reacting to this sessions, i haven't listened to them in a while so i'm basically crying on every high note)

[@nattcattt]

Every video I watch from you makes me appreciate Tyler's talent more and more. I didn't even think it was possible to like him more until you started breaking down his musicality and how naturally skilled he is in so many ways. Thank you for opening my eyes up to a new level of appreciation for Tyler.

[@TheThirdErnest]

He’s EXTREMELY talented. It’s unbelievable tbh lol

[@stacybarkley7876]

This song 🖤🖤 Means so much. My daughter was suicidal and I heard this on the bus home from work one day and I literally sobbed on the bus lol. It’s now our song. It’s now her text tone when I call or text her. It’s so beautiful. She is My Blood and I will always go with her. 🖤💛

[@jaydw2583]

I just went back and watched the other location sessions and you are so insightful and amazing at breaking down lyrics. It’s common in reaction channels of tøp that the person reacting misses a lot and doesn’t really pay attention to the lyrics but you have not only listened to the lyrics but you also listen to the production and instruments and make comments on parts you love and how he did differ things and that’s why your my now favorite reactor.

[@TheThirdErnest]

Thank you! I try to give you my insight so it’s not just me in the video for no reason lol

[@AmandaBee]

He did a similar version of this a while back in the BBC Live Lounge and I think I replayed the last part of the song like 3 or 4 times because I was so blown away by it lol

[@phillugares4888]

The attention to detail in every video is great. My guy deserves more subs. Been here a long time. Hope the fam grows.

[@TheThirdErnest]

Thanks for the support! We will get there

[@phillugares4888]

@@TheThirdErnest I just hope you'd react to Wynne. I hope you know her. She has a song with JID.

[@BlizzardGhost]

My Blood is literally based off his cousin doing what he did in the music video. That's the real background of the song. He explained it somewhere

[@TheThirdErnest]

I haven't seen the music video just so I can react to it lol

[@lIlzerolIll]

He explained it in the video, i think..

[@yogafrog2052]

He said in a fan q&a that verse was about his cousins, not the entire song.

If you like these location sessions, you’re going to LOVE the BBC 1 Live Lounge session that Tyler did with Ride and My Blood and a cover of Damian Rice’s “9 Crimes”.

[@wyldchyld1967]

No Phun Intended has a lot of songs dealing with his mental stability and his faith, not sure when it was recorded but I believe its some of his earliest work. LOVE your channel and I just turned my daughter onto your channel as well .. total fam affair LOL . I so look forward to all your TOP reactions and just started following you on Instagram too! I'm a regional short haul trucker and listen to all your TOP videos via Bluetooth in my truck SO thanks for keeping me company!! Merry Xmas & Happy New Year to you, your fam & everyone here at The Third Fam!!

[@thamys2106]

He made this album when he was 17 years old

[@Lenny-ue8hk]

He also did a version of this in the BBC Live Lounge, along with Ride and Neon Gravestones. You should definitely react to those, especially NG.

@@TheThirdErnest topxmm heavydirtysoul will forever be my absolute favorite, definitely don't sleep on that sir 👀

[@kevinwells9751]

Man, the way he sings "stay with me" at the end is so powerful, it gives me chills every time. On the original song and I'm the early parts of this version it sounds encouraging, like he has your back no matter what, but by the end when he is belting it out it sounds like a plea for you to stay with him, like he doesn't want to lose you. It's amazing how much he can shape the meaning and feeling of his lyrics just with his musicality and voice

[@Mariannemaisy]

I love that tøp often reference their older songs. Tyler sings about lions in my blood AND migraine: “I did not know it was such a violent island Full of tidal waves, suicidal crazed lions They're trying to eat me, blood running down their chin And I know that I can fight, or I can let the lion win” It really feeds back into the meaning of this song.

[@wherethereisawill3708]

I love watching your videos because I get to see new artists that I probably wouldn’t have bothered to listen to before like Witt and TOP. I started watching your videos when you reacted to NF’s new album and enjoyed your reactions ever since. I get to hear new songs, and hearing your breakdown of the lyrics somehow makes it even more special hearing it the for the first time than it would’ve just listening to it on my own. That being said I would love to hear you react to Ivan b.

[@roxiedoes7894]

This song and his voice in particular always give me the goosebumps. I feel like that a good way to distinguish a great song...

I think this just moved to my fave react from you. Everything you were feeling was how I was when I first heard it but um, I may have teared up some lol! It gives me chills. I agree with you that this was the perfect reconstruct for this song. I did see someone let you know the back story of this song, & he also dedicated it to his baby (at the time) niece at a Detroit show. Anyway, loving these reactions. His voice never stops amazing me.

Please never stop reacting to tøp videos, I love your view of them and your interpretations, the other KZbinrs just trigger me, but I REALLY really enjoy your channel

[@esselleanderic]

I totally agree with you, I always felt this song was for their fans, but that’s the beauty of their songs, people can interpret them literally or metaphorically or have them mean something entirely different to them. That’s the sign of a true genius writer, a song that can mean so much to so many for whatever reason they need it in their lives.

[@EDub513]

He has a Live @ SiriusXM performance where he does this song and talks about the backstory that inspired this song. His cousins that he looked up to that lived in Michigan.. the younger cousin was cocky and would run his mouth and apparently he was running his mouth at school and the rival football team showed up to his house to kick has ass. And so he said he wrote the song about... people at the end of your driveway calling out your name and he said his older cousin was always quiet and kept to himself, but no one knew that he was a blackbelt and he went down to the end of the driveway and took care of business. He said that story always stuck with him.. that is, defending your family. And so when writing this song, he thought about if he were in that position of having to go defend his family that he would probably need a weapon so he's going to introduce a bat into the story. So this story isn't really about his fans, though whatever works to get someone through a tough time, by all means.

[@criticalthinker72]

Somebody that's going to be there for you no matter what. When the sunshines and then it rains. The complete opposite of each other. The good and bad. The yin and yang. I'm 46 and and only had one person in my life that ever did this and he is dead now. People really need to step up to the plate and represent this kind of compassion and understanding.

Your breakdowns are phenomenal! Loving this series. One thing though I always took it as "pull my pin" like pulling a grenade pin - like I'll jump on a live grenade for you. Also a call back to "I'll bomb down on them..." Just my two cents - like you said their lyrics are how you apply them to yourself at times. Much love as always!

The lions den line is also actually a throwback to a line in the song “Migraine” in the album vessel. The line goes “full of tidal waves, suicidal crazed *lions*. they’re trying to eat me, blood running down their chin. And I know that I can fight, or I can let the *lion* in.” Which I’m actually not sure what this is trying to imply here with that. Any insight? Maybe a reaction to migraine ;)?

[@lanceb247Upload]

Aaron E he’s already done a reaction to Migraine - go find it!

[@TheThirdErnest]

Forgot about that line!

[@dejahwilson268]

I feel like the lion is another form of his depression or anxiety, maybe the lion is his suicidal thoughts. Therefore, he is saying, when you (My Blood) have all this crap going on in your brain, when you are trapped in a "lions den" he will jump in and and pull his pen. Do what Tyler does best and write it out, write a song to get through. He references a PEN as a weapon in multiple songs, "some see a pen, I see harpoon" Up until this reaction, I've always thought of it as a grenade pin for this song, but now I'm leaning towards a pen, to write and kill the lions....

[@ErikGrimms]

@@dejahwilson268 The lion is the king of the animal kingdom maybe? A ruler? Something/someone with power over him? And why can't it be both? The grenade he tosses are his words, written with his pen, he'll blow up the lions with his music because we're all invited to come along to be seen and heard and see and hear. Lions also hunt in packs and when dark thoughts and depression and anxiety comes hunting for you they rarely come by themselves, they're always in packs. Since the lion is the king it could also be seen as something insurmountable. It's not a little cat or parrot, it's the literal king of the jungle. Transpose that emotionally. Edit: @TheThirdErnest didn't it bum u out that the "weathered flag by the sea" part of chlorine wasn't in the session version? Sure did for me, fav part of the song.

[@nikkigonzalez9802]

Made me cry 😢

[@MrThankman360]

I took the “I’m gonna pull my pin”as a pin from a grenade. “Go with you” as in “go out with you” as in “die with you in the lions den” Although it makes sense to be a double too.
