Twenty One Pilots - Truce Meaning

Truce Lyrics

Now, the night is coming to an end,
Oh

The sun will rise, and we will try again.
Oh

Stay alive, stay alive, for me.
You will die, but now your life is free,

Take
Pride
In what is sure
To
Die.

I will fear the night...

   My best friend and I are only fifteen. We live across the country from each other. She is dying, just a little, every day, from Cystic Fibrosis. She asked me to learn this song on the piano for her. She has no idea what the lyrics mean to me. Someday her night will be coming to an end. And I'll beg her to stay alive for me. But she will die.
   
   
   And then her life is free.
   
   And I will fear the night again without her.

   Pretty clear for me. You're trying to persuade your friend to stay alive, because you can't live without them. You tell them they can live with the knowledge that everyone dies at last.

   The song truce is about Tyler trying to convince the young (and old) audience that life is so worth living, and we die someday, so we should wait for that day instead of killing ourselves. He is begging the audience to stay alive for him because life is for the living and life is beautiful.

   He is trying convince his frI end not to die, but tells him that we will all die one day. Also that when you die, you'll be free. Wake up every day and try again, go to bed fearing the night. It's an endless circle.
