| Twenty One Pilots – Car Radio Lyrics

Personally, I believe this song is full of symbolism. I view the Car as someone's physical life, driving on and on. The Car Radio could represent happiness or a distraction from what's going on in life. "Pulling the steering wheel" could be a suicide reference. I just see this song basically saying "When the happiness is removed from my life, I still have to keep going and face my fears and problems." This song is enriched with brilliant quotes, but the symbolism seems really deep for me. I know interviews with the lead singer explain that the song is totally literal with no symbolism, but I seem to interpret it different. |

I know people think this song is all Christian meaning, but I am pretty much an Atheist. This does not mean that the true meaning is wrong, I agree, it's about Jesus or whatever, and that's awesome, but my personal interpretation reminds me of a son and father who are distant and the son writes this song to his dad explaining how they havent been talking and that he misses him and needs him and how he is struggling in life, and he needs his father's wisdom and support that he has little of, which reminds me of the part where the singer says "I hold the water in the palm of my hand" referring to his memories, wisdom, and support from his father. When the verse continues and the water is lost, i believe it means that his relationship with his father is basically ruined and that the son is alone with no water, which can represent a necessity of life, especially in the desert. And a son needs his father, so the water and the desert have a lot of meaning to me. |
