Notes

This one is a little more obvious with simple but deep metaphors. I believe this song is about a friend of Tyler’s (maybe the person about Friend, Please) who is in a battle with their mind and the darker part of the mind is winning so she (ms. believer) will not seek help from Tyler who is trying to help her. But maybe she wants to accept but can’t. Let’s go verse by verse shall we?


“Oh, Ms Believer, my pretty sleeper, your twisted mind is like snow on the road, your shaking shoulders prove that it's colder inside your head than the winter of dead.”
A believer is someone who believes in this certain way so our Ms. Believer may believe that she is fine, nothing is wrong when she is asked the question if she is alright, Tyler then proves us that she is not fine. Ms. Believer may not sleep much with the battle she has with her mind constantly so when she is asleep it is quiet, soft, peaceful, and pretty. I see snow on the road as two. You know when you're walking in snow and you leave a snow print and then another person does, or you're driving and you notice a lot of tracks being left behind? That's like a twisted mind. Because there is a lot of foot prints left in the road if you tried to follow it you would lose your way because all the paths intervene with others and you end up being twisted. Another way I imagine it is when most of the time when there is snow there is also ice left behind and I imagine someone walking on an icy road and falling from the slipperiness of the ice or cars driving and when they break they slide a little and can cause a car crash symbolizing the bad occurrences that happens during the winter happens with her twisted mind. The next part is my favorite part. This song is more about visualizing the lyrics and seeing it as a story. When you are cold you usually shiver through your whole body (mostly your arms) but when you're shaking your shoulders it's usually a shrug. If Tyler asked Believer if she was okay she would shake her shoulders and Tyler then would realize that she is not okay. (Maybe Ms Believer is the person Tyler is talking to in Falling Too.) Think about the winter of dead. It is the worst snowstorm ever! You wouldn't be able to go outside without getting a rush of coldness tickling your bones. Heck! You wouldn't be able to be in your house without air conditioning. But Ms. Believer's head is colder than that. Colder than the winter of dead. Her mind blasted sharp ice cycles at her and she needs to find warmth.


“I will tell you I love you but the muffs on your ears will cater your fears. My nose and feet are running as we start to travel through snow, together we go.”
Tyler is trying to tell Believer the truth. That he loves her and wants to help her but Ms. Believer just does not believe it and thinks she has to battle the shards of ice herself and will face them up close but Tyler worries if they are too strong or too much for her. Tyler's nose is running as he is metaphorically getting “sick” as she is but he is determined and will run (getting even more sick) to keep up with her and help her. He wants to battle their dark thoughts together, he believes 2 is better than 1 (which is true) but Ms. Believer just can't let him in.


“We get colder as we grow older, we will walk so much slower.” Their noses will get even more runnier causing them to get even more sick and wounded in the battle of their heads. As they grow older they learn even more about themselves and others but every section you unlock in your brain when you get older comes different demons, more mature and stronger demons, ready to fight at any given moment. As the winter of dead gets stronger (caused by their more powerful dark thoughts) they will walk so much slower, not being able to run anymore but instead fighting the blizzard head on.

“Oh, Ms Believer, my pretty weeper, your twisted thoughts are like snow on the rooftops. Please, take my hand, we're in foreign land as we travel through snow, together we go.”
Her twisted mind has gotten too much for her that she quietly and softly cries. But the thing is, sleeper is taking over by weeper here so what if whenever she does go to sleep she let's go a little by letting a little tear slip before going to sleep. Snow on a roof at first is very light and pretty, so no one really takes notice to it. But after snowing for a long time, it starts to weigh more and more, which could cause the roof to cave in. This is symbolic to the thoughts that Ms Believer is having. No one is really noticing her at first, but she can become very damaging, very quickly. As they walk through the snow they are traveling to places they never have been before (they are discovering more about their mind and about their dark parts of their minds) but they are new to everything around them that they are a little scared and intimidated to do anything bad, so Tyler believes that if they go together traveling through this foreign land, they can help each other overcome their demons/blurryface's and trust each other even more. Also see how sleep is taken by weep, twisted mind is taken by twisted thoughts and snow on the road is taken by rooftop? When you think about each one you realize this verse is more violent and depressing than the original.
