    Tyler revealed this morning that the line was written about his grandmas passing but the theory is well done

    It almost seems like it’s hinting at Clancy becoming a Bishop and sacrificing himself for the banditos. Maybe making some sort of compromise with Blurryface.
    And then the code from the FPE “…if we become them, we must do better.” 👀

    As someone who has never seen Arcane and knows nothing about it, I totally interpreted the lyrics as Clancy becoming a bishop

    I’m not familiar w/Arcane but as you said with Heathens (relates to Suicide Squad and has lore references TØP fans would recognize) this might be the same. Written for Arcane but I can definitely see how it could fit into the Clancy storyline at the end of Paladin. I don’t think they’ll do a video for this song in that context, as there will already be the MV for Arcane coming out this Monday. But we can infer the connection (if we want)
    Tyler’s voice is sublime when it crescendos with the strings! ❤💛

    There are Theories that Clancy might become a Bishop after he Defeats Nico

    This is random but is Blurryface an in universe album? If it’s not how does the music connect to Dema

      Ah. Yes, I have been operating upon the assumption that it is. There are plenty of pretty explicit references to the lore throughout it.

      @@ToubYu My understanding is that Tyler didn't really do all the detailed universe building until the hiatus, whilst writing Trench (source, his interview with Zane Lowe for Beats1). So at the time Tyler wrote Blurryface, he was writing about the part of himself that he called Blurryface. Tyler was not yet Clancy and Blurryface was not yet Nico.

    Its a prequel, not a sequel. At the end of "The Line" the beginning of Overcompensate.

      That could be also - or if you buy into the theory of repeating cycles, it could be both.

      @@Deltaaaaaaaaa which is why we will wait until June to truly know the end. This feels like Tyler sacrificing himself willingly for the people, not him submitting to the Bishops. God/the torchbearer will honor his sacrifice and will resurrect him.

    HOT TAKE: The Line is not lore and you all read into things way too much. The Line is for Arcane written from his experiences of loosing his grandma.

    The story isn’t done.
    We already know he is already in part all of the Bishops, that’s why all of their robes are in his closet in Routines in the Night.
    I think the line “did I disappoint you?” is to the Torchbearer.
    I think the story he is trying to tell is that the struggle is never really over,
    and nothing gets done on your own, it’s only through the Torchbearer that you can defeat your demons.
    I got two faces, Blurry is the one I’m not. He already is Blurryface, aka Nico.
