LYRICS
You freak me out
So I stay in
Do you see me now?
Do you have my pin?
No, I don’t know how
You’ll show up or when
But it freaks me out
So I stay in
You say “Boy I’m not a stalker
But I watch you when you’re walking
You call all kinds of people
Who aren’t me
You love me in such weird ways
Like when you lead me back to your place
And you do it without words
But don’t you worry ‘cause I heard everything."
Now you’re looking through the peephole
On the door of my apartment
My panic’s at the ceiling
But I'm flat down on the carpet
You say
“Boy, I know you’re in there
And the way you tease is unfair
And this ain’t Misery
But I’d break your knees
To keep you here with me"
You freak me out
So I stay in
Alone on my couch
Watching Netflix again
It’s like I’m watching You
But it’s about me
And just to be clear
I mean the show, you’re Joe
“Boy I’m not a stalker
But I watch you when you’re walking
You call all kinds of people
Who aren’t me
You love me in such weird ways
Like when you lead me back to your place
And you do it without words
But don’t you worry 'cause I heard-"
Now you’re looking through the peephole
On the door of my apartment
My panic’s at the ceiling
But I'm flat down on the carpet
You say
“Boy, I know you’re in there
And the way you tease is unfair
And this ain’t Misery
But I’d break your knees
To keep you here with me"
Now you’re looking through the peephole
On the door of my apartment
My panic’s at the ceiling
But I'm flat down on the carpet
You say
“Boy, I know you’re in there
And the way you tease is unfair
And this ain’t Misery
But I’d break your knees
To keep you here with me"
I'm not leaving any signs
Like the kind you think you find
#Waterparks #Violet #GreatestHits #OfficialVideo
otto was the reason there was a toilet paper shortage last year
I was about to comment "well I know where the toilet paper shortage was from"
@@Aetherrri my first thought when I saw that 😂
TRUE LOL
What did they do with the toilet paper after recording this music video 😂
Cleaned the full house with it lol
The way there's an Ice Bath reference in there.... if Ice Bath isn't the next MV **and horror themed** I will riot
I will join you
since ice bath is just an intro to see you in the future, i think it isn’ta
YES
i love that geoff is just vibing and doesn’t know what’s going on lol
Okay actually I have to say this: the entirety of this album tastes like baja blast to me and if you don't like baja blast then I'm sorry because I mean it in the best way possible
So true omg
oh my god youre actually right
oh my god you're so fucking right- it does...
wait that's the flavor... THANK YOU
Still a great album, keep Up the great work and the awesome sound!!
Watch one of their most prettiest songs be one of the most darkest music video
tbh the song is about a stalker awsten had so i wouldn’t be shocked if it was dark
well u were not wrong
i meannn
Isn't there a lyric about Awsten's smashing someone's knees in
@@harrystyles705 the lyric is “but I’d break your knees to keep you here with me” and I’m pretty sure its from the stalkers pov :)
The throwback to Easy To Hate with Otto drumming in the toilet and in that MV they were stalking the fan and now it’s reversed love it
Which MV
@@betzabesuazo9784 easy to hate mv lol
I also have the same thoughts 😂😂 no wonder the scene looked familiar 😂
does otto even play imessage games i feel like he wouldn’t
does otto even have a phone let alone an iphone let's be honest
I’m going to be completely honest and say I’m willing to bet money that he doesn’t have an iPhone.
i will bet all of my money that otto has a tracfone
i´m gonna ask again, how many important things are in this album that we haven't noticed yet?
well. not necessarily this album, in We Need To Talk's mv there's a lot of references to gh. • the apartment is number 103 • Awsten jumps out of the window- "I might just lose my head off the balcony of 103" • His shirt in that is red, blue, and yellow • when he walks towards the Not Warriors / Crybaby house, he's wearing a red sweatshirt, there's a yellow car, and his hair looks blue.
The sass of awsten's clap to turn the lights off is everything
OUR BOI IS RICH NOW
@@harsheh clapper is 19.97 on Amazon, you can be rich too haha
@@michalstrazevic3443 it was a joke, michal /j plus I'm not American do inflation
Theory: Travis is spying on them because they didn't let him play bass for the band
IMAGINE THAT WOULD BE SO FUNNY
this is the best comment 😭
LMAOO
No it's Otto's clone
PLEASEJAKKSKAK
The way how the whole MV looks very DD/ENT-ish really sticks to me. The bed reminds me of Not Warriors, him playing the guitar reminds me of 21 Questions, the whole house reminds me of Easy To Hate, and the water somehow reminds me of Cluster’s album cover. The song sounds like something you’d hear from DD or ENT too!
I laughed to myself when I read the song name “Fruit Roll Ups,” but now it’s one of my favorites! I love how Awsten says “colors” how come it sounds so pretty??
Love fruit roll ups, And I'm sorry if you don't have any.. ,😊
And would never have to break my knees lol
id like to think that otto is teaching the chameleon how to play drums
That was the cutest thing they could add to a song with dark lyrics
so wholesome
YES
i like to think that the chameleon already knows how to play drums and he’s otto’s biggest inspiration
This video is like it Not Warriors, Dream Boy, and Lowkey as Hell were combined and I love it
And Easy To Hate
Yes I see it.
also does geoff actually have that many guitars in his trunk? cuz i genuinely wouldn’t be surprised
@Kennedy Mason makes sense
Ok but I love how this is the night after the recording of the music video Numb if you play them back to back and damn. He's going for that P!ATD trilogy idea
it hasn’t even premiere but i’m already saying this is gonna be their best mv
so true
It really is
well you're correct!
Spoiler alert! It was!!!
You were righttt
Took me a while to realize that was an eye. I was thinking “what does a jawbreaker have to do with this???”.
omg I didn't even see it until you pointed it out- I was thinking of beekeeping hats...sad there weren't any bees now
I thought it was a camera.
i thought it was a planet
LMAO 😭😭😭😂😂😂
This is probably what a yandere's crush would sing.
The drums at the end of See You in the Future and in Crying Over It All are so insanely like overwhelming and surrounding. Have you had the chance to listen to those tracks in a big echoey room yet? So good.
No not yet but looking forward to it
fun fact awsten’s actually the cutest ever and i’m gonna cry
i’m crying with ya
agreed
THE CLAP LIGHT THO
FACTS
He looks so perfect in this mv
i have so many feelings about their production this era that i absolutely do not mind staying up till 1am to catch this and see that fUcking lighting as it premiers lets gO
Timezone buddyyyy
it's 7pm here👀
I love that, it’s only 1 pm here
Fellow asian parxie? :O
@@onecreepypenguin9138 filo gang 😩🤙
when you joined in with the recording for the last line in the title track for the album release show last night... holy shit it sounded so good it gave me chills. after that performance im absolutely ecstatic for tour. idk how much you'll be able to do stage-design wise, but if last night was any hint im extremely excited
♥️♥️♥️thank you♥️♥️♥️
Ugh Awsten is so good looking, it’s actually unfair
There’s literally no bad songs on this album. They’re all so good.
It's there greatest hits hehe
I personally think nothing surpasses Double Dare and this new album is mediocre...
@@thenextchrislawrence who?
@@thenextchrislawrence congratulations, your inability to adapt to new sounds is exactly what kills bands
@@SimpleNoodle Everyone has their own tastes, this stuff isn't for me. Simple as that. Shouldn't feel like you have to buy into a new sound a band produces just because you liked their other material.
I love how Waterparks always include so many Waterparks references in their songs and videos
when this song came out I thought it was a love song and now I’m in therapy
the vocals on every track on greatest hits make me so happy because they’re so beautiful, and they really portray your growth since AC so it is truly inspiring ☺️🥺
God I need at least one friend who's as enthusiastic for waterparks as me
me too! let's be friends
me too still searching for that friend
@@elliesparklez5818 duude if ur serious I'm down lol
Same. I've tried to get all my friends listening to them but I'm the only one obsessed. Lmao
@@mariahsubia7270 all my friends refuse to listen to them like 😐😐
here before its released but I already know this is gonna be the best thing ive ever watched
AGREED
YES
SO TRUE
i wonder if all the callbacks to their older stuff in this video are symbolic of them being haunted by/unable to get away from all that they’ve done before because of everyone expecting them to still be the same or maybe I’m just being too meta and reading way too much into it and they’re just little easter eggs (ayy) for the fans just for fun because if i was an artist i would absolutely reference myself like that all the time too
not a question but i want to say thank you for everything you're doing along with otto and geoff, it means a lot and i (and a lot of other people) appreciate it sm,, also I'm so glad i found your music,, you guys are so cool and hope I'll be able to meet y'all one day or see you perform live
Flashback to Not Warriors mv when Otto and Geoff were sitting on the couch playing video games and Awsten walked right past them to his room and now in Violet! he's sitting with them🥰 and not to mention his hair was violet in the other video and there were flowers attacking him but now he's watering flowers😳
to the two people who disliked this, i just wanna talk bro
We Need To Talk
@@arabellaw3267 looool
THE NEXT ERA SPOILER?? WHEN HE CLAPPED AND THE LIGHTS TURNED TO RED?? IS ANYONE ELSE REWATCHING OLD MVS TO LOOK FOR CLUES
Now he has red hair and released their newest single
IF YOU LOOK AT COMMENTS HE SAYS “🎾♥️” (FROM A GREATEST HITS MV)
Theory: the stalker is a female Travis and wants to play bass
this feels like not warriors/crybaby mv in a different font
SO TRUE BESTIE
@@darkheart0827 HEY BESTUE 😰
yes this is exactly what i was thinking
THATS LITERALLY WHAT I WAS SAYING
when Otto started drumming on the toiler paper I lost it lmao
I want a horror movie with waterparks based on this song
1:18 “if geoff’s been drinking-“
one thing that does confuse me is why she drops the binoculars. does she realize awsten knows she watches him?
I mean he did just drop he music video for a song that says he knows so...maybe?
not sure if you’re still reading comments, but just want you to know i appreciate everything y’all have been doing lately. i don’t think anyone says thank you enough, so here’s a massive thank you and i can’t wait to tell you that in person 🌟
appreciate u ♥️
@@WaterparksTx love u awsten
i'm so proud of everything you guys have been doing, this era has been huge
shaking crying and throwing up cause this song is so good ily guys
‘This ain’t Misery but i’d break your knees to keep you here with me’ - I love this line bc i read the book not long ago and thought it was great
oh man i’m dumb, took me until this comment to even recognise this lyric lol
Woah, what book?
@@emmae.2832 Its called Misery by Stephen King, its a fantastic book if you are into that kind of stuff
@@inadaze6076 Thank you
Oh lol. Thought he was referencing the Maroon 5 song this whole time lmao
Theory: what if after they were stalked they were kept/locked up in a snow globe?
i was thinking about this after i realized the numb & violet videos connect!
That's what i thought somebody is getting dragged in the start of snowglobe.
when my bf and i get married will you play at our wedding? (we’re the couple that met at one of your shows in 2019, you commented on my tweet abt it today
Tweet this at them!! Awstens more likely to see it on Twitter.
plot twist: travis is actually the stalker
i wouldn’t be surprised
I just... wtf is it with Otto playing drums while in the bathroom?😂
He’s got to keep care of all of that toilet paper somehow
BLAME AWSTEN.
he’s got a gamer toilet
i was rewatching the "new waves" mv and men thats a masterpiece
Back to this because of the new season of you
Do you feel like Crybaby was underappreciated for its time? That song was WAY ahead. Still can't believe how good it is.
Thank u! I think so too!!!! Top 3 on Ent
@@WaterparksTx Wait what's the other two?
SO PRETTY THE WHOLE VIDEO OH MY GOD WHEN OTTO TURNS HIS HEAD DRAMATICALLY AND WHEN GEOFF IS LYING AMONG THE GLASS AND WHEN AWSTEN POINTS THE HOSE UPWARDS AND YOU CAN SEE THE THREE OF THEM AGHHHHHHh this is so good
So just wondering...anyone else notice the eye in the background at 1:27?
creeeeeeeepy cause no I didnt!!
Love Violet! My favorite song from Greatest Hits also one of my favorite music videos from WATERPARKS love this band they are so freaking cool 💛💛💛
I'D BREAK YOUR KNEES TO KEEP YOU HERE WITH ME - classic waterparks lyric
ice bath reference was pretty cool ngl ...geddit? i'll show myself out
HEY THE LIGHTING FOR THE RELEASE SHOW WAS AMAZING I CANT STOP TALKING ABOUT IT
it took me much longer than i would like to admit to realize that the sky at the beginning was the same one from the end of the numb video
i'm new in this fandom and this is the best decision i've ever made. this mv is pure art
AMG QUAL SEU TWITTER
@@giovannamilito7437 countingdragons kskkskd
I hate how he’s been planning on murdering Geoff on tour for years but didn’t even take the time to break his knees for the sake of the video :(
i went FERAL to see you in the future last night during the stream and almost broke my desk THAT SONG GOES SO HARD LIVE!! THE ENERGY IN THAT SONG >>>>>
EVEN THO THE SONG IS ABOUT STALKING IT MAKES ME FEEL ALL WARM INSIDE AND THE MUSIC VIDEO WITH THE LIGHTING AND THE PARX BOYS THIS IS EVERYTHING
@Mady Hornsby YES
Well at least this time they didn't have the struggle of fitting the entire drum set in the bathroom so much as just stacking loads of toilet paper around Otto without him knocking it over
My favorite song by them💜
1:27 how have I never noticed the stalker just lurking in the hall 😳
This looks so good and all I see is a still image of Awsten so far, I hope this is everything I imagined it would be
HI TATE
@@Angelina-cf7fz PFFT HI STRAW GIRL
I can already tell that it’s gonna be so pretty
I JUST WANTED TO THANK YOU FOR HELPING ME THROUGH A STRESSING EXAM PERIOD. YOUR MUSIC IS MY HAPPY PLACE
BANGER SONG
THE ICE BATH IS PROBABLY MY FAVORITE PART OF IT. LIKE IDK THAT NOD. ALSO THE LYRIC ABOUT YOU IS MY FAVORITE PLS I KEEP SHOWING THIS SONG TO PEOPLE JUST FOR THAT LMAO
REKI
that’s actually such a kickass door omg there are ROSES ON IT
I'm a 31 year old guy from Eastern Europe and I've been listening to WP religiously since like 2021. First time seeing a music video. Keep it up guys. I love this shit. Lmao
Good 👍 they always have good melody
Shout-out to Awsten for not sleeping with socks, Geoff you sleep with socks or no?
This already looks SO GOOD even though its not out yet, LOOK AT THE LIGHTNING AAH
i don’t even know what to ask tbh just wanna say thank you so much for sharing your art with us. you’re a lyrical genius and your writing inspires my own writing. thank you.

hey not a question but i just wanna say i love u guys, ur music really makes me happy and more comfortable and listening to u guys has allowed me to make new friends and stuff so yh thanks
this song
Awsten's feet be crusty af in that last shot of him jumping on the bed 😂😭
i have been asking for weeks and i will continue: will you be painting the tracks of greatest hits like you did with fandom??
I think about that one interview way too much. I don't know if you saw the live stream concert but I'm thinking that was Awsten's way of doing that again. It was so badass. All those pretty colors
@@mariahsubia7270 i do have a ticket, but i was working the night of so i plan on watching it today!! i always LOVE the way they incorporate awsten's vision of the songs with coordinating lights in their live shows, it's so satisfying, and i'm so excited to see what they came up with 🥺 there was just something about that video where he painted them that was right up my lane tho. presented so well
@@midtowntodowntown I totally forgot that there's a name for people who see music as colors. Which is really cool because I'm one of those types of people and I can also see way more colors than most people can. Austin made that video it got me real excited and usually when I make art I picked certain colors that I feel go with that music or that video very well. You're going to love the livestream show it was so good it was so pretty I was so amazed like I wanted to cry.
I'm playing this song so often and so loud, I'm pretty sure my neighbours know the chorus by heart (Mouahahah)
YES I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS TO COME OUT
Whenever I look at this MV, it's just too good😭🛐🛐🛐 the lightning and all makes this sooo good
will you paint the album using your synesthesia again like how you did for fandom? i rlly enjoyed that
he always manages to look so pretty omfg
Love them
not a question just wanna say thank you so much for sharing your art with us. i’m a poetry writer and i find your lyrics so poetic. you’re a big inspiration for my own writing. thank you for everything
i dont know how it’s legal to be that pretty
hey bestie geoff what song off GH gives you “we’re gonna die playing this live but it’s gonna be sick” vibes
Probably Magnetic!
@@Underscoregeoff that one does go hard, i’m gonna be looking forward to seeing that one live!!! you guys will crush it! 💚
