"Tune Out" lyrics

It's your bed. Please choose a side.
I'll take the one closest to the door.
And you start to speak.
The words that try to justify
Do far more wrong than anything you do.

So grab the coat, the keys.
The tension speaks,
But we're singing it.

I'll tap the brake while you crack the window.
The smell of smoke is making my lungs explode.
The 51 is backed up and too slow.
Let's tune out by turning on the radio.

And this town is dead.
We've been caught in these sheets way too long.
Let's just see
Who's up on this screen.
No one I know is more depressing than me.
Or should I say the two of us
'Cause after all we're all we've got?

And tension speaks,
But we're singing it.

I'll tap the brake while you crack the window.
The smell of smoke is making my lungs explode.
The 51 is backed up and too slow.
Let's tune out by turning on the radio.

And, oh, my love, you're all I need.
Backed behind a frequency.
They played this song an hour ago.
But let's tune out...
Let's tune out by turning on the radio.

Haven't we heard this song about a thousand times before.
Oh, well. After awhile it all sounds the same.
I guess it's better than silence
And better than shame.

I'll tap the brake while you crack the window.
The smell of smoke is making my lungs explode.
The 51 is backed up and too slow.
Let's tune out by turning on the radio.

I'll tap the brake while you crack the window.
The smell of smoke is making my lungs explode.
The 51 is backed up and too slow.
Let's tune out by turning on the radio.

And, oh, my love, you're all I need.
Backed behind a frequency.
They played this song an hour ago.

But let's tune out...
Let's tune out...
Let's tune out by turning on the radio.
