Heathen Lyrics in English
All my friends are heathens, take it slow
Wait for them to ask you who you know
Please don’t make any sudden moves
You don’t know the half of the abuse
All my friends are heathens, take it slow
Wait for them to ask you who you know
Please don’t make any sudden moves
You don’t know the half of the abuse
Welcome to the room of people
Who have rooms of people that they loved one day
Docked away
Just because we check the guns at the door
Doesn’t mean our brains will change from hand grenades
You’ll never know the psychopath sitting next to you
You’ll never know the murderer sitting next to you
You’ll think, “How’d I get here, sitting next to you?”
But after all, I’ve said, please don’t forget
All my friends are heathens, take it slow
Wait for them to ask you who you know
Please don’t make any sudden moves
You don’t know the half of the abuse
We don’t deal with outsiders very well
They say newcomers have a certain smell
You have trust issues, not to mention
They say they can smell your intentions
You’ll never know the freakshow sitting next to you
You’ll have some weird people sitting next to you
You’ll think “How did I get here, sitting next to you?”
But after all I’ve said, please don’t forget
(Watch it)
(Watch it)
All my friends are heathens, take it slow
Wait for them to ask you who you know
Please don’t make any sudden moves
You don’t know the half of the abuse
All my friends are heathens, take it slow
(Watch it)
Wait for them to ask you who you know
(Watch it)
All my friends are heathens, take it slow
(Watch it)
Wait for them to ask you who you know
Why’d you come? You knew you should have stayed
(It’s blasphemy)
I tried to warn you just to stay away
(Away)
And now they’re outside ready to bust
(To bust)
It looks like you might be one of us

Heathens Song Review
A heathen means someone considered an outsider from the point of view of a particular religion. It can also mean someone who is outside of a specific group or community.
For instance, let’s assume you are with a group of diehard Twenty One Pilots fans and someone else comes near your group who is not so much. Then he can be considered as a heathen.
What’s more, truth be told, it is that specific situation that TØP is supposed to address in this melody. On one hand, the verses have been deciphered as the band advising the Skeleton Clique to be more thoughtful to heathens, for example, individuals who are a few seconds ago joining the gathering’s being a fan themselves. Despite the fact that they may not have all the earmarks of being as dedicated at first, that may not really be the situation.
Music Video
This song is based on a superhero or particularly supervillain-themed fiction movie – ‘Suicide Squad’. The video starts by taking out prisoners, special ones with powers or special talents, and apparently, we see Harley Quin hanging upside down inside the prison cell.
It is believed that Twenty One Pilots wanted to use such a prison cell theme for their song to pay regard to another singer Johnny Cash – and his live performance “At Folsom Prison” in January 1968 in California.
The Music video won the Best Rock Video category award from MTV in 2016.
