Twenty One Pilots - Addict With A Pen (Live) (The Most Emotional Live twenty one pilots Performance)

[@r3m]

seeing the difference between clancy’s version and this, oh how far he’s come

[@cloudwinchester0903]

You can see how hard Josh is playing, when he gets worried he plays harder and he's holding nothing back here

[@RowanLmao]

One of the many things I still love about this performance years later is how involved Josh is. Yes he’s the drummer so he’s obviously involved, but if you watch shows before Josh joined, Chris wasn’t really into it. Josh and Tyler share the same energy and that’s what made the songs more emotional live

[@meagan4605]

1:17 "Do you feel that?" and then going onto the "water" lyric gave me chills

[@localeboy5176]

it gives me chills everytime. i come to this video when im upset or doubtful of my faith because it helps me a lot

[@no_phun_in_dema]

Same

[@cheyne7526]

when he drug the mic across his wrist, that hit me hard, I've been crying for a damn hour

[@hometxwn5056]

2:17 made me have a breakdown.

[@alicia-eo1xk]

Me too

[@cloudwinchester0903]

Both of them look like they're about to cry in this whole performance

[@0TBZ9]

That happened before

[@nobody6537]

I love how we’re all speechless

[@Me-zr9yh]

Scusemecouldyoupleaseleave hi fren

[@wowspiders7176]

A year ago from today I watched this video while in the hospital after an attempted suicide, this is still amazing and I love these boys so much, they’ve helped me immensely, I owe them my life,,

[@inactive3889]

Aqua Hood how are you doing now?

[@wowspiders7176]

really good, thank you,,

[@cmk7826]

[@kyrafryer721]

Glad to here your doing better, ik im late. There the real super heros. Stay alive Frens ||-//

[@chihirofujisaki6479]

I hope you are still good ❤. Let's make 2020 a good year together frens!

[@abbeye5403]

Josh drums harder when he’s worried about ty. Poor josh was about to break something at 1:40

[@blurrybanditosianyuwu360]

Abbey E aw 🥺

[@theontheron7730]

I miss this random burst of emotion from them.

[@ellaheller5339]

It's still there

[@Someone-fn3ij]

But this means he's not feeling alright... It's *not* a good thing to almost have a mental breakdown on stage. I do not miss it

[@RedK5]

catarina F same

[@gangstergardener5356]

@@Someone-fn3ij i don’t think they mean that they like it when tyler is suffering. i think they mean that they appreciate the true emotion in the performance.

[@aurora-zf4lt]

Who clicked the dislike button obviously was crying while seeing this and meant to his the like button

[@kirai8092]

I actually did that and then quickly thumbed it up 😂

[@MissSallyB1]

before hitting play: why am I doing this to myself after watching: WHY DID I DO THAT MYSELF

[@eliotelakoseckie9232]

2:27 look what hes doing with a mic. cry with me now.

[@KatE-fs8cf]

😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

[@jemstevens3345]

zuzia k I thought I was the only one that noticed that agh 😭

[@eliotelakoseckie9232]

Nine in the cheezwiz pumpkin pie of 2001 im just happy he is better now

[@cloudwinchester0903]

He did that in Guns For Hands one time, during the line "and you swear to your parents, that it will never happen again"

[@eliotelakoseckie9232]

EmoQuartetHydra i know ;(

[@elsunshine2650]

what he did with the mic will always hurt me. he’s been through so much. i hate seeing him upset. he was definitely about to breakdown during that part. i love tyler and josh so much holy shit.

[@nat-pl3ki]

I physically cannot take this video but I'm happy I found it again

[@no_phun_in_dema]

I still can’t watch this video without crying

[@riyak.7393]

When you watch this, I feel this was one of the darkest hour of Tyler's life, and it wasn't even close. Imagine what he's went through.

[@fernandoandrecardonalopez6540]

I'm proud of this boy, he's been through so much and he fight that... and now look at him! Married, father of a beautiful child, having a happy life and still making music with his best friend for all their fans around the world ❤️

[@Ethan-cr2ze]

This hurts to watch

[@diegocornu-oxley9300]

at the part when he says 'my trial was labeled as crazy suicidal head case' you can see fear and sadness in his eyes. also noticed just after the part he says 'im an addict with a pen' he looks at his wrist and uses the microphone to draw lines down his arm. I'm happy that smol bean is better now

[@itssiobhan0726]

that’s so sad

[@itssiobhan0726]

The fact that I suddenly understood what he was doing it’s so sad bro

[@itssiobhan0726]

I’m having this kind of thoughts in the past few years so I get it

[@kirai8092]

1:49 sad stuff starts

[@schaberto]

I was at Bandito Tour live and it was one of the best concerts for me so far! ...But i missed THOSE emotions... :/

[@K300-z9y]

I see what you mean, but I'm glad in a way. They are doing much better now so they wouldn't show the same emotions as they did when they were not OK. I don't want to see them sad and depressed. They still show passion and emotion just not the same kind. |-/

[@coreytoeler8092]

god it makes me so sad that just the performance shows not even close to what he went through

[@introspectivesteps5433]

i try and stop myself from crying whenever i watch them play live (even just on youtube) but i just cant! you can feel the emotion through the frickin screen! nothing can compare to these guys!

[@ellasoper7922]

still the most emotional performance ive ever seen them do

[@mercuryeuphoria5052]

I always listen and watch this whenever I need to cry. It helps me so much, I can't explain how much Tyler and Josh mean to me, they saved my life, along with my friends. Without them, I would've felt alone, trapped, and that nobody cared, but they do. Stay alive. |-/

[@lucytaylor8010]

and back i go, into my addict with a pen appreciation phase

[@lucytaylor8010]

I'm here again. Ugh

[@AlexCruz-pp2xw]

This performance always gets me. I never cry and this is the closest I get to it. I love how emotional it is and everything about it is so heart breaking but comforting at the same time.

[@ashholtcaron1280]

His voice shaking at 3:14 :(

[@itssiobhan0726]

I CANT with this song it’s beautiful but it hurts so bad

[@shinydiamonds4565]

This is seriously my favorite song on this album and when I found this and listened to it I just cried and couldn’t stop because this song means so much to me and just hearing it live just makes my so happy because I friggin love this song

[@cicadadays420]

Same. I scream the lyrics along with migraine.

[@avery3403]

Getting a tattoo to commemorate this song soon

[@deinodinosuchus]

1:33 the way he slams the piano. i feel this so deeply in my soul. the frustration and overwhelming emotion you can't get out without slamming something, and if that thing is an instrument, all the better

[@a.becker4851]

Hear I am, 4 years later, trade school, returning to this emotional performance. I will never forget this video. Thank you so much for uploading

[@thatoneperson9107]

I hate that this gives me chills because I dont want to be happy with seeing someone as amazing as tyler joesph be in pain but I also know from experience that sometimes to feel better you need to scream and sing it out

[@thatoneperson9107]

My cat passed away today after 10 years she has allways been there and this music.. tyler joesph is giving me hope something told onto so thank you Tyler ik you will never see this but thank you

[@jacobmoreno9698]

This song brings me to my knees with tears mannnnn. Like so listens to this for fun. Nah we listen to it when we at our worst

[@marinavelaz]

This song is what holds me together. Fun fact: I go to Stephen F. Austin State University in Nacogdoches TX. Tyler was (unknowingly) throwing out an Axe 'Em Jacks! The thumb and two fingers. Made me smile 'cause, even though he didn't realize it, he gave me a signal to keep going. 💜🪓 |‐/

[@livnewman7746]

this video murders me every time without fail

[@wendyisonfire]

crying

[@Dayton_Koleszar]

Ok for new TOP fans when Tyler is having a mental breakdown just cheer as loud as you can and when Tyler is acting like a crazy lunatic then that’s him being him just go with it because it’s awesome

[@suxshadow584]

Still one of my fav T.O.P songs to this day

[@ellasoper7922]

still here

[@amber458]

||-// 🌮🖤

[@haileypiazza96]

[@snailtoons]

ME!!!!!!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 XD

[@billyborus8587]

Miss these days. Happy for where they've ended up though. They deserve it

[@kirai8092]

Remember! Life is short! And its so easy to waste it! What im saying is one day the sun wont rise again ||-//

[@asoulscondition7466]

We are the real warriors

[@themaster.8143]

I like to watch it sometimes

[@ellasoper7922]

seriously the only thing that keeps me going

[@ellasoper7922]

this saved me

[@Damnchaosemerald_e.e]

HE POPS OFF

[@helenakeown8122]

I really love all their albums. But I have to say, self titled is my favorite.❤️

[@FancyShrimpp]

As someone who doesn’t feel much emotion, I wish I could feel this.

[@applesauceandpeanutbutter]

I watch this video a lot, same with other sad emotional performances, but for some reason, I can't cry. like, I tear up but I can't cry and I hate that. feels like I'm fucking numb. sorry for the rant lmao have a good day

[@itssiobhan0726]

I feel bad for them bro

[@feralstreetrat]

10 seconds in and I'M CRYING ALREADY SHGFFDFNKLL

[@nopoop630]

Tyler took the microphone and pretended to slit his wrist 😭

[@plutia6882]

Oh wow i can't believe it's been so long since i uploaded this, surprised it's still getting views and comments

[@rtridoutt2379]

❤

[@shugarplum2065]

Why was Josh getting worried? 😢 He drums harder when he's worried, I guess it's because Tyler almost had a breakdown

[@spacedout3218]

The way he drug the mic across his wrist I’m crying 😭😭😭😭😭😭

[@neonschizo2026]

Hello We haven't talked in quite some time I know I haven't been the best Of sons, hello, I've been traveling in the desert of my mind And I Haven't found a drop Of life I haven't found a drop Of you, I haven't found a drop I haven't found a drop Of water Water I try desperately to run through the sand As I hold the water in the palm of my hand 'Cause it's all that I have and it's all that I need and The waves of the water mean nothing to me But I try my best and all that I can To hold tightly onto what's left in my hand But no matter how, how tightly I will strain The sand will slow me down and the water will drain I'm just being dramatic, in fact, I'm only at it again As an addict with a pen, who's addicted to the wind As it blows me back and forth, mindless, spineless, and pretend Of course I'll be here again, see you tomorrow, but it's the end of today End of my ways as a walking denial My trial was filed as a crazy suicidal head case But you specialize in dying, you hear me screaming "father" And I'm lying here just crying, so wash me with your water Water Hello I haven't talked in quite some time I know I haven't been the best Of sons, hello, I've been traveling in the desert of my mind And I I haven't found a drop Of life I haven't found a drop Of you I haven't found a drop I haven't found a drop Of water Songwriters: Tyler Joseph
