Halestorm - Heathens Lyrics






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
Locked away
Just because we check the guns at the door
Doesn't mean our brains will change from hand grenades
You're loving on the psychopath sitting next to you
You're loving on 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're loving on 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)
Please 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

  1. A.... F....

    I just discovered this last night and I fkn love this

  2. G.... C....

    Love it. Halestorm is the Moderatto of English rock.

  3. M.... V....

    Thank's for this, it's awesome

  4. U.... J....

    She misses the last part ;) We are bad guys, its what we do :P ;) :D

  5. X.... G....

    Better than original!!!! Keep up with the good work!

  6. F.... F....

    Imagine them covering bring me to life by Evanescence :O ❤️🤘🏻👌🏻

  7. R.... R....

    You should do Zombie by the Cranberries and Bad wolves

  8. D.... B....

    I LOVE UU HALESTORM

  9. z.... ....

    WOW! I love this!!

  10. D.... F....

    And this is how you take a good song and make it sound horrible! A WAY BETTER cover done by Something you Whisper. Much harder version but Amazing non the less!

    D.... F....

    I'll have to disagree, dude. The original seemed like it was trying too hard, in my opinion, but the Halestorm cover (this one) makes it seem more melancholic and less uhh.. TikTok-ish. I probably don't like the way she sang the verses though.

  11. �.... �....

    Лучший кавер на эту песню!!!!😊😊😊😊😊😍😍😍😍😍😍

  12. �.... �....

    Есть тут наши???))

  13. T.... 4....

    Wish you guys had done a video with this. This is the best cover and even better than the original IMO.

  14. D.... 7....

    I don't like the original version of this song but I love this cover

  15. m.... ....

    I’m so glad I found this

  16. s.... s....

    Awesome

  17. K.... M....

    When I first heard this song, I don't even like this kind of music but the words, well I relate to say the least. But when it says watch it, that made it perfect. Halestorm fucked up that part. You can hardly hear it but once. I would have truly preferred hale but not like that. The build up to watch it was good but the actual moment, Couldve been way better

  18. J.... G....

    I'm not a fan of the original, but yet again am fan of their rendition.

    "The Damn at Otter Creek" by Live would be a good one for Halestorm' s skill sets.

  19. T.... 4....

    Best cover...Period

  20. S.... J....

    i LOVE you

  21. B.... L....

    ❤️❤️

  22. N.... ....

    The piano is honestly the best part of this cover tbh

  23. T.... W....

    I'll be honest, I listened with an open mind but I just don't like it. It's just flat...

  24. T.... M....

    😍😍😍

  25. H.... I....

    Infinitely better than the original.

  26. c.... s....

    Cover nickelback

  27. S.... ....

    If Halestorm covers your song.....you’ve been outdone...sorry

  28. K.... S....

    Halestorm covers are iconic!

  29. L.... F....

    Excellent cover like the original

  30. A.... M....

    I'm heaven and I love it

  31. A.... M....

    M a heaven and I love it

  32. L.... S....

    This is so much better then the other one

  33. C.... W....

    I am so sad, seriously pains me to admit that Lzzy butchered this song, great song, but I don't think she is the one to sing it

  34. J.... G....

  36. S.... W....

    I love Lzzy’s covers. Too bad most of her originals bore the crap out of me.

  37. J.... 1....

    ARGH. I like 21 pilots, but... WOW. Sorry, but this is just... better.

    I can’t like this any more. Thumbs right up, love it. 🤘🏽👍🏼🎸

    Best Cover Ever!

  42. p.... ....

    You guys never disappoint! Keep up the awesome work❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

  43. J.... T....

    This almost sounds like 1997 era Megadeth :)

  44. d.... ....

    Not better than the original (sorry hipsters), but great in its own way. Halestorm is generally awesome

  45. A.... A....

    mmmmm.....maybe. ...... everything you say is beautiful

  46. R.... ....

    I don't even like the original but this one is great

  47. B.... S....

    Better than the original🤤😍❤️

  48. K.... ....

    Twenty one pilots: "Don't mess with my friends"

    Halestorm: "Try not to get yourself killed with my friends"

  49. n.... j....

    one of my favorit songs with one of my favorit rockers

  50. L.... S....

    This is better. By a lot

  51. K.... N....

    This is so much better than the original. Like, this cover just fits the lyrics so much more with the heavy guitar and drums. Lzzy's vocals also fit so much better. The original just feels weak, boring, and like a waste of potential now.

  52. �.... ....

    Better than the original in my opinion
    420/69

  53. A.... G....

    For once I like the cover as much as the original, if not more

  54. J.... D....

    This is ridiculous great !

  55. I.... ....

    AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHTHEYREGOINGONTOUR

  56. C.... M....

    I wish they do a Cranberries cover for Reanimate 4

  57. R.... 9....

    She should have left it alone. I'm falling asleep on it.

  58. O.... R....

    worst cover i ve ever seen

  59. A.... 1....

    My god she is so darn good. That voice.

  60. 1.... 1....

    Slipknot has "666", The Pretty Reckless have "make me wanna die" this guys have this.
    Not bad.

  61. A.... B....

    Oh my Goooood!

    For the dog lovers:

    All my friends are canines take it slow
    Wait for them to sniff you with their nose
    Please don't make any sudden moves
    You might startle some of them to poo
    All my friends are canines take it slow
    Wait for them to sniff you with their nose
    Please don't make any sudden moves
    You might startle some of them to poo

    Welcome to the room of people
    Who have pics of the puppies that they loved one day
    Who've passed away
    Just because we leave our shoes at the door
    Doesn't mean you shouldn't see what's on the floor
    You're lovin' on the terrier sitting next to you
    You're loving on the bull dog sitting next to you
    You'll think "why's this black chihuahua sittin' on my shoe?
    But after all I've said, please don't forget

    All my friends are canines take it slow
    Wait for them to sniff you with their nose
    Please don't make any sudden moves
    You might startle some of them to poo

    They don't deal with small mammals very well
    Or dogs until they get close enough to smell
    They've no trust issues to mention
    But I'm sure they can smell your intentions
    You're lovin' on the weird rescue sitting next to you
    You'll have some fun dogs sitting next to you
    You'll think "God damn how did you get so cute"
    But after all I've said, please don't forget
    (Pet it, pet it)

    All my friends are canines take it slow
    Wait for them to sniff you with their nose
    Please don't make any sudden moves
    You might startle some of them to poo

    All my friends are canines take it slow
    (Pet it)
    Wait for them to sniff you with their nose
    (Pet it)
    Please, all my friends are canines take it slow
    (Pet it)
    Wait for them to sniff you with their nose

    Why'd he leave? He knew I had said "stay"
    (It's blasphemy)
    Now she wants some really good belly rubs
    (Belly)
    Soon they'll be outside wanting to play
    (to play)
    It looks like they're gonna make you stay

    hate to say it but this is one cover out of all the covers they've done that I do not like at all. and I love when Halestorm comes out with cover eps. I never liked 21 Pilots to begin with.

  87. p.... ....

    With a few exceptions, (Rob Halford, Ann Wilson, Pat Benatar) I would rather hear Lzzy sing the covers than the original versions.

  88. C.... M....

    Awesome cover like always

  89. C.... P....

    Halestorm doing TØP? HELL. YEAH.

  90. C.... T....

    I love Halestorm, but when it comes to Heathens The Animal in Me did it better

  91. I.... U....

    What the fuck?... this sounds so similar to "Corporal Cleg" of Pink Floyd.... ???? the whole chorus

  92. l.... l....

    Better than the original

  93. C.... B....

    Omg I was not expecting this to be so good and cool!

  94. L.... :....

    I prefer the original version, but this is a great cover!

  95. C.... O....

    This HEATHEN is better than the original

  96. C.... M....

    Why is Evanescence so popular, this band is a joke? Halestorm needs more credit Lizzy's voice is so metal.

  97. S.... T....

    yes yes yes
