Poem by Tyler Joseph

Stay alive frens |-/

This is a line

And this line is mine

You will kindly find that my feet and spine

are perfectly aligned.

You'll also find that on either side is a plus

and a minus sign

Right now I'm on this line, minus this,

now I'm online

This is a line and this line is mine

You will kindly find my feet and spine

are on the plus sign

Now I'd like to assign

and also define

what one might find

on this side of the line

I will now pretend that there are no consequences

of saying something offensive online

no matter what

my ignorant friend says.

'Cause words are all I have

and yeah, I know it's sad

we hide behind the mask

of the latest social networking fad

so there's respect in my status whether through Mark Zuckerberg or Tom.

I'll treat you the same in person

And yeah, I'll accept your friend request mom.

This is a line

and this line is mine!

You will kindly find my feet and my spine

are on the minus sign

Now I'd like to assign

and also define

what one might find

on this side of the line

Now I might seem unassuming but if you only knew

what I was doing

brewing, spewing, spitting venom

when I'm at that screen, I ruin.

Reputations I will splatter

typing faster I get madder.

All the insults I will gather. You're so lucky it's only Saturday.

You have one day. Oh yes, Sunday

For my words to die away

And in that one day

I must say, your gonna wish you had a different name.

But then it's Monday.

And at school,

I'll remind them all of what I said

Then it's Tuesday

And then it's Wednesday

And then we'll all find out...

You're dead..

This is a line

And this line is mine!

And now that I have assigned what one might find

On either side

You will kindly find that my feet and my spine

Are on the plus sign

And I'm not moving

Where are you?
