Car Radio / Heathens - MTV Unplugged Live

All right, let's do it

I ponder of something great

My lungs will fill and then deflate

They fill with fire, exhale desire

I know it's dire, my time today

I have these thoughts so often, I ought

To replace that slot with what I once bought

'Cause somebody stole my car radio

And now I just sit in silence

Sometimes quiet is violent

I find it hard to hide it, my pride is no longer inside

It's on my sleeve, my skin will scream

Reminding me of who I killed inside my dream

I hate this car that I'm driving, there's no hiding for me

I'm forced to deal with what I feel

There is no distraction to mask what is real

I could pull the steering wheel

I have these thoughts so often, I ought

To replace that slot with what I once bought

'Cause somebody stole my car radio

And now I just sit in silence

Ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh

Ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh

All my friends are heathens, take it slow (Ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh)

Wait for them to ask you who you know (Ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh)

Please don't make any sudden moves (Ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh)

You don't know the half of the abuse (Ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh)

I ponder of something terrifying

'Cause this time there's no sound to hide behind

I find over the course of our human existence

One thing consists of consistence

And it's that we're all battling fear

Oh, dear, I don't know if we know why we're here

Oh, my, too deep, please stop thinking

I liked it better when my car had sound

There are things we can do

But from the things that work there are only two

And from the two that we choose to do

Peace will win and fear will lose

And there's faith and there's sleep

We need to pick one please because

Faith is to be awake and to be awake is for us to think

And for us to think is to be alive

I will try with every rhyme

To come across like I am dying to let you know

You need to try to think

Try to think, try to think

Try to think, try to think

I have these thoughts so often, I ought

To replace that slot with what I once bought (Try to think)

'Cause somebody stole my car radio

And now I just try to think

Try to think, try to think

All my friends are heathens, take it slow (Try to think, try to think)

Wait for them to ask you who you know (Try to think, try to think)

Please don't make any sudden moves (Try to think, try to think)

You don't know the half of the abuse (Try to think, try to think)

Woah oh woah oh-oh, woah oh woah oh-oh

Woah oh woah oh-oh

And now I just sit in silence

And now I just sit in silence

And now I just sit

(Woah oh woah oh-oh, woah oh woah oh-oh)

And now I just sit in silence (Try to think, try to think)

(Woah oh woah oh-oh, woah oh woah oh-oh)

And now I just sit in silence (Try to think, try to think)

(Woah oh woah oh-oh, woah oh woah oh-oh)

(Try to think, try to think)

(Woah oh woah oh-oh, woah oh woah oh-oh)

And now I just sit (Try to think)

I ponder of something great

My lungs will fill and then deflate

They fill with fire, exhale desire

I know it's dire, my time today

I have these thoughts so often, I ought

To replace that slot with what I once bought

'Cause somebody stole my car radio

And now I just sit in silence
