[@jerryrobins5112]

Alright, I've got an odd theory: Twin Skeleton's is about a murder, particularly a murder inside of a relationship gone sour. First off, there's a shit ton of deathly iconography in this song: jet black crows, skeletons, and two outright mentions of death: "Just die laughing on your spiral of shame" and "a birth and a death on the same day." That sets the foundation that something really rather horrific is going on in this song. We can extrapolate that that something isn't entirely love- the lyrics aren't written like "Fourth of July" or "Favorite Record," which both instantly reek of love with lines talking of confession, beauty, and romantic regret. No; something worse is happening here, and I think it's a murder. Let's look at a few lines: "There's a room in a hotel in NYC/That shares our fate and deserves our pity." Buildings that play host to murder are often condemned (catch the pun?) to be terrifying places, the kind you'd see in a Ray Bradbury short. Dwellings where murders have taken place have their lives, if you will, cut short. They share the fate, in a way, of those who die there. "I don't want to remember at all/The promises I made if you just hold on." The promises in mention could very well be the promises of the honeymoon period of an abusive relationship- it will never happen again, I didn't mean it, it's all going to be okay. The murder at the heart of the song is, I believe, the culmination of one too many of these broken promises. "Till we're saints just swimming in our sins again." Murderers often believe they are saints. They aggrandize their self image into almost godlike proportions. More over, they often believe themselves- if you get into the especially sinister murderers- to be on missions from God or that they are messiahs, which this verse could be referencing. "And there's a jet black crow droning on and on and on." Any good history buff knows that crows are more often than not seen as harbingers of death, as ominous omens that something bad- I mean really fucking bad- is about to happen. See Julius Caesar by Shakespeare for evidence. "A birth and a death on the same day." While the person dies, a reputation- that of a violent, fanatical murderer- is born. There is a birth of newfound fame, of newfound recognition; perhaps, this is what our murderer sought all along. There you have it, folks. Thoughts from my head at 1:30 AM.

[@haileybaez59]

holy fuck go write a book bruh that was awesome

[@jerryrobins5112]

Thanks!

[@cybertronguy98]

+Jerry Robins good theory. too bad the song's confirmed to be about the break up of the band

[@jerryrobins5112]

Brandon Thompson Seriously? That's interesting, I would have never called that. Can you like me to where tehy say that?

[@cybertronguy98]

[@LIONHAWK78]

I'm in a actual haunted house HELP ME OR DIE :!

[@CurlyCee13]

This song is so sad. As someone who suffers from depression I can understand some of what Pete was going through at the time they broke up. This song is so powerful. Patrick's vocals are haunting and convey the helplessness, grief and pain that Pete felt at the time. Definitely my fave song from AB/AP :)

[@KalistaReyes]

Am I the only one that thinks the instrumental in the beginning sounds like the part from Miss Jackson by P!ATD with the 'Heyy, heyy, heyahahey' part? Yes, no? Okay. *scuttles away and hides in corner*

So I saw a comment down here that's no longer here, but it was an interesting theory on what the song was about. Now I don't mean to come under fire from this but I liked the idea. The lyrics "and I just did enough of you to dull the pain. Just enough to get me through the night 'til we're twins again. 'Til we're stripped down to our skeletons again. 'Til we're saints just swimming in our sins again" could be something about who the band is in front of the media/press vs. who they are when they get back home or are in the hotel room. Meaning "ok we need to be these people out in front of everyone" vs. "ok, we're back in the hotel, let's screw around and be ourselves." Just a thought. Like I said this idea isn't mine and I think the comment has been deleted since I saw it but it was a good idea and I liked it. You don't have to agree with it but please don't attack me for it.

[@lunabangtan7]

no its actually a good idea

[@robotoed1247]

I think it's about 9/11

[@JesseFckinPinkman]

I feel like it might have been sex related

[@dannytonnessen6896]

Just did enough to dull the pain are the same exact words Pete used to describe his struggle with anti depressants, if that helps 🤷‍♀️

[@Bowl849]

There’s a comment right above you that is a theory of the what the song is about, idk if it’s the same one but maybe you want to read it?

[@chemicalanathema313]

GUYS This connects to GINASFS "I was born under a bad sign / But you saved my life / That night on the roof of your hotel" ~ GINASFS "There's a room in a hotel in New York City/ That shares our fate and deserves our pity / I don't want to remember the promises I made if you'll just hold on" It's about Pete's suicide attempt Holy shit

[@ems4274]

this song could be about petes suicide attempt yeah but i think it deals with the hiatus: pete wrote this to pre-hiatus patrick. *"a birth and death on the same day"* is referring to the death of fob and birth of soul punk. patrick was the one who offered that the band go on hiatus and pete opposed it at first. *"i dont want to remember it all the promises i made if you just hold on"* pete was trying to convince patrick to not go on hiatus. im pretty sure the last show they played before the hiatus was in nyc too (but idk for sure) *"i need a new partner in crime"* and *"till we're twins again"* show how close patrick and pete were and still are. for the latter, pete even said on twitter that he and patrick have a bad case of cryptophasia (the language shared by twins) *"keep making trouble till you find what you love"* but in the end pete just wanted patrick to be happy and if going on hiatus and doing soul punk is "what patrick loved" pete wouldnt stop him

[@violleett]

It's about fobs breakup. 'A birth and a death on the same day' death of fob birth of soul punk and all the other things done during the hiatus. They also broke up in a hotel in nyc. Pete has also said it's a love song (most likely for Patrick, Andy, and Joe)

[@haydenpiber1314]

You are right now that I think about it

[@CurlyCee13]

Plus they would've said in interviews and stuff if the song was actually based on 9/11.

[@creamsoda376]

+violet flores There are more than two people in fall out boy. It's not called Quadruplet skeletons.

[@violleett]

Chris Cammidge​ after seeing fob 10 times and meeting them twice I know that. But I mean let's look at their other titles. How much sense do they really make (look at futct haha)? I'm still pretty sure its about the break up tho

[@forest_goblin_6321]

out it's about mikey way like everything else

[@peroxideprincess3246]

Guys, the game in general isn't cancer. The game is very heartwarming and hilarious. It's the fucking fandom that makes the game tainted. SO please, just shut up with all of these Undertale comments and just enjoy the music. I am fine with all of the comments that say, "Who else thought of Undertale?" Okay, those are fine because, let's be honest, we all thought of it. But all of those comments that are like, "OMG UNDERTALE!!!! SANS AND PAPYRUs M8888" Like holy crap we get it.

[@marl0n]

KellyT The Shadow Queen i agree, and i'd like to add, the lyrics that one would associate with sans and papyrus don't even appear throughout the entire thing. It's like, yes, those couple lines remind you of sans and papyrus, but what about the rest of the song and the meaning it's trying to convey? it takes all the enjoyment out of that.

[@somethingclever8668]

That tickled my funny bone

[@twangstytm7516]

Very humerus.

goddamnit...

[@g3mini920]

Wow.

[@tiannagraham5210]

So Halloween. Much spoopy.

[@chescalilly5304]

i got a distinctly stan pines twins feel from this huh

[@chescalilly5304]

+sire411 thanks

[@ectoplasmhell]

I said I didn't like Fall Out Boy and now look at me. My girlfriend has gotten me into them! XD Thank you very much!

[@justpeachie4473]

The first time I listened to this song I immediately fell in love with it

[@xirruz]

Here's my two-cents on the meaning of the song: It's about two taken/married people having an affair and one left the other. "I don't want to remember it all the promises I made if you just hold on" - There's a promise he doesn't want to remember everytime they're together and he doesn't want her to leave because he's fallen for her. "There's a room in a hotel in new york city that shares our fate and deserves our pity" - A room that doesn't get occupied has no meaning for existence(pitiful). Sharing their fate with an unoccupied room would mean they feel there is no purpose to their existence if they're not together. "And I just need enough of you to dull the pain" - He got addicted to her(He fell for her). If that ain't a perfect description of an addiction then I don't know what is. "Just to get me through the night till we're twins again" - Again addiction right here but the 'till we're twins again' part makes it sound like one party doesn't think like the other anymore. "Till we're stripped down to our skeletons again, till we're saints just swimming in our sins again" - First part is about their lust for each other that it's how they feel about each other. Second part describes that this might be adultery and that they look like a saint at first glance. "And there's a jet black crow droning on and on and on" - Jet Black Crow(Death) of a marriage hanging above their heads. "Keep making trouble till you find what you love" - She got bored of him and left to find another lover. "I need a new partner in crime and you shrug" - describes how he searched for another lover and went back to the old one but got rejected. "A birth and a death on the same day" - The birth of an affair, The death of a marriage. A new lover. "And honey I only appeared so I can fade away" - He doesn't want to get attached to her and get hurt like the last time. "I wanna throw my hands in the air and scream and I could just die laughing on your spiral of shame" - Walk of shame? "Hit it never quit it I have been through the wreck, but I can string enough to show my face in the light again" - He's suggesting that they keep their affair going and he's a better liar if they're ever found out. After this stanza it goes back to the first part which hints that he's fallen for her like his other lover who left him and he doesn't want her to leave him. Repeat.

[@momo53191]

+xirruz There we go! Only explanation thus far that has made sense.

[@sfrazier5100]

Every time it says "I don't want to remember it all, the promises I made" I get shivers because I just imagine how they would tell them stuff like "it's okay people are coming to rescue you" etc

[@annielitster5706]

i have really bad anxiety and after I listen to this song I feel like a new person thank you fall out boys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@windbladefromcaminus764]

3:13 I love that chorus that Patrick did on his G2 low note (If you listen very carefully) Note: it feels like Halloween vibes in this video

[@renaepollack3809]

The undertale AMV that had to do with sans and pap is what led me to find this song

[@bryleerose5515]

I love how everyone's like "IT'S ABOUT THE TWIN TOWERS!" The everyone else is like "IT'S ABOUT A BREAK UP!" And im just over here like: "All of you SHUT. THE. F. UP. AND JUST LISTEN TO THE SONG AND STOP ARGUING."

[@talcumheart8974]

Agreed 100% some people don't get

[@sheggy5442]

+Sketch girl I believe everyone interprets lyrics differently. Music is an art, so the message is subjective. What the artist felt when creating the piece isn't necessarily what fans will take away with the song, and that is fine. It's how it should be...but......WHO THE FUCK IS SAYING THIS IS ABOUT THE TWIN TOWERS??? O.o

[@myriumherandez2137]

But how can you like a song if you don't know what it's about 😒

[@myriumherandez2137]

What !?!!?!

[@jennyjemmy5734]

ikr

[@tyrush-squidwardsbrother968]

'there is a room in a hotel in new York city...' me: 'IS IT A SUITE? IS IT FANCY????' 'that shares a fate and deserves are pity...' me: 'ohhhhh fancy! how much does it cost?' 'I don't want to remember it all...' me: awwww, so you don't remember the price? )':' ''if you just hold on...' me: ok ok, sorry I'm in a rush, but dis place sounds fancy! *random cliff comes out of no where* me: OK NOW I GET WHY I SHOULD HOLD ON

[@aluxifer1534]

i know it's not about 9/11 but it sure as hell sounds like it tbh

[@galaxyboyo5841]

+Alyers I agree, it kinda does remind me of it. Scarry to think of D:

[@kaylynstrong4795]

yes

[@Raccnophobia]

...

[@Fahrenheit-gj2ib]

omg your right...

[@Junkey1989]

no

[@nikinicole27]

My ears have been blessed

[@_the-fallen-killjoy_2176]

XD

[@ashtheintroverted7204]

Just by going through the comments I saw 3 different interpretation. My own interpretation is 4-- this is why I like FOB. It's crazy how the song can differ person to person.

[@AlexS-ik4kt]

Don't argue. A song is about whatever you believe it to be about. What it means to you.

[@luckneh5330]

Stop with the undertale comments. Literally just because it has twin skeletons in the name could mean anything I mean like I like undertale but I don't like it where I have to comment " oh it reminds me papyrus and sans anybody else? " sorrynotsorry

[@deeniewatson7849]

I didn't know they were twins XD

[@luckneh5330]

Deenie Watson They aren't through lol

[@deeniewatson7849]

Oh good, I thought I was being stupid again XD

[@luckneh5330]

Deenie Watson Don't worry :P.

[@ronanbloodedge5378]

same, i also hate the dan and phil peeps that does this shit with this song

[@strawberrylipglossxx]

2:01 im so obsessed with this part of the song patrick literally sounds heavenly

[@hyunjae203]

Ok I haven't heard this song in years but here I am mouthing practically every word

[@alyssarains2727]

I LIKE FOB... They are THE BEST BAND EVER. Like in the history of rock music.

[@satvrn9793]

did Patrick hve a twin that died and he was telling them to hold on so that they dont die? WOW, MIND BLOWN

[@jocelynmclaughlin1799]

No, this was about Pete’s attempt at suicide. Patrick helped him out of it.

[@elisabeth8670]

this song is great

[@saramichajlyszyn1600]

Which is your favorite of their songs? Really.. I can't decide...

[@chelswak2469]

Probably all the songs on Infitnity On High. Personally, I'm not a fan of AB\AP except for this song.

[@rayia4094]

stop arguing about what the song is about and just agree that it's awesome and listen to it thank you love you all

[@thebluesky7512]

mom: Stop listening to music and come eat dinner! me: *plays the Hold on part of this song*

[@Ash-fo7fu]

I clicked on this by accident. What a wonderful accident!!! I LOVE FALL OUT BOY!!!!!!

[@natsnotreal]

Can't sleep so here I am getting myself addicted to fall out boy

[@elisabethnini3643]

geez patricks voice is amazing

[@misscellaneous6355]

I love how if you listen closely, during the chorus you can hear Patrick's shaky breaths :)

[@DovahGirlie]

If you lied about the band and said it was Billy Talent, I would have fell for it. I wouldn't even be surprised if the two bands knew each other well enough to have toured together.

[@sherylg.5139]

When I first heard this song I thought it was about Halloween... Well, I feel kind of embarrassed now...

[@natalienelson5307]

I thought so to

[@laoiser9690]

Like do people realise how perfect Patricks voice is? Every fob song sounds different he never uses the same tone

[@lampshade1304]

some parts sound like let's kill tonight

[@minalas2275]

same, esp at 2:01

[@kimberlymay1613]

Low key my favorite song

[@MaryannPeas]

I am obsessed with the ending of this song...Anyone else? Just me? Ok gtggtggtggtg

[@xfranchiex507]

Am I the only one who thinks Twin Skeletons and The Haunting (Set It Off) would be great together? No one? Just me? Okay.

[@kaizzen7942]

I'm listening to this while drawing Grell...well, I'm trying to draw Grell

[@MaggieMangleWright]

From Black Butler? Nice.

[@g3mini920]

Grell Sutcliffe?

[@cicicranne9185]

Grell as in Grell Stutcliff? As in Sebastian obsessed Grell from black butler? We're best friends now.

[@Raccnophobia]

"The chairs are fake and deserves our pity..."

[@eyesopod]

Am I the only one who thinks this song is about the titanic? It was: 1. Going to New York 2. "If you just *hold on* 3 The Titanic sunk on it's first trip ("A birth and a death on the same day") MAybe it's just me.

[@nataliaramo4262]

Good theory, but the titanic ship wasn't made the same day it sank if that's what you meant, I could be wrong😜

[@ilyadimov7608]

A birth and a death refers to the dying of their fake outer personality and the birth of their genuine inner personality. This happens out of public view, and they put on their fakeness before going back. They hold on until the next time they can be alone together. No towers, no tragedies. It's all depression and identity confusion.

[@geesus8570]

I accidentally had the speed set to 25. and it was my first time listening and I was cunfuzzled for a minute there.

[@alexvlogs8653]

FoB: *makes a good song* Fans: *doesn't pay attention to song* Fans: OMG TH3 TITL3 IS LICK SANS N PAPRYRUS!1!!!1!

[@MaggieMangleWright]

I actually love this song. it's one of my personal favourites of their songs. Sans and Papyrus aren't twins anyway.

[@Enderhayley]

+Maggie Wright they don't have to be identical to be twins...

[@MaggieMangleWright]

+EnderHayley But there's an age difference..

[@2spoonsbunnypeach393]

When he hits that high note in the end I get shivers.
