In Heavydirtysoul the person driving the car that Tyler is in could be Nico or another bishop because of the shape of the hood and the fact that when the driver is shown in the car Tyler’s neck and hands are black (controlled). This could be a possibility because in Jumpsuit when Nico touches Tyler his neck becomes black and he follows the bishop as if he is just doing what Nico tells him. Also, in Heavydirtysoul it looks like Josh is the one destroying the car by playing the drums (could symbolize him speaking to Tyler). In Jumpsuit, Josh is looking over Tyler who seems to have escaped Dema, so maybe the car symbolizes Dema and Josh is destroying it. 

When the car gets destroyed, no one is driving, and Tyler sings “Can you save my heavy dirty soul?” that can be directed at Josh (who also has yellow hair -that could be a coincidence but yellow is the color of Trench- ). Tyler then gets out of the car and it burns -Dema is destroyed (?)-. 

In the last scene of Heavydirtsoul it is really hard to see Tyler’s neck and hands but it seems like they are not as black, so not controlled by Dema anymore. The first scene in Jumpsuit is Tyler in the same clothes, hair and location as in Heavydirtysoul, so that is why it could link it to Jumpsuit. In that scene it is hard to tell if he has a black body as well, so maybe it is filmed that way in purpose. Also, in Jumpsuit there are some scenes in the middle where Tyler from Heavydirtysoul appears.

The last “theory” is the lyrics of Hometown having a different meaning now that Dema is known to us. After knowing more about Dema, Hometown could possibly be talking about Dema. “A shadow tilts its head at me, spirits in the dark are waiting, I won’t let them win, go quietly”, this lyrics from Hometown could be referring to Josh (or someone) telling Tyler to leave “go quietly”, but to be careful because the bishops could spot them “spirits in the dark are waiting”. 

“Be the one to take me home and show me the sun”, could mean that Tyler wants to get out of Dema and see the sun. Dema is supposed to be like a tower of silence by the looks of the maps, so that explains him wanting to see the sun (go outside).

“Where we’re from, there’s no sun, our hometown’s in the dark”, which links to the previous lyrics. 

“Where we’re from, we’re no one, our hometown’s in the dark”, a variation of the last one. Still, talking about going out and being no one in Dema, because they are not being themselves, they are being controlled. 

“We don’t know, we don’t know, how to put back the power in our soul, we don’t know, we don’t know, where to find what once was in our bones”, which could be that Dema took their soul and they don’t know how to regain it.
