Self Righteous Lyrics by Third Eye Blind

Out of the Vein

2003

[Ad Libs: Kimya Dawson & Stephan Jenkins]
- Come on, take a dare
- No. See, it's working. I told you this would work
- You're never going to find any peace. You're like a haunted house at midnight. Come on

[Chorus: Kimya Dawson]
Everyone is so self-righteous
Lift your head again and try this
Ooh

[Verse 1: Stephan Jenkins]
If you want this, I do
And I want this, but I can't break through
And I can see you begin to glow
Mmm

[Chorus: Kimya Dawson & (Stephan Jenkins)]
Everyone is so self-righteous
(Get up everyone now
We're all on our own now)
Lift your head again try this

[Verse 2: Stephan Jenkins]
And feel you, I do
And I want this, but I can't break through
And your burning lights red and blue

[Chorus: Stephan Jenkins & Kimya Dawson]
Everyone is so self-righteous

[Interlude: Kimya Dawson]
Where have you sinners gone?
All you sinners

[Bridge: Stephan Jenkins]
What's ours is ours
And we're all alone
What's ours is ours
And outside rain
It's just a shower
And then I feel you breathe
And I let go the hours
And I feel your skin
And I let you in
And that's my dream
Again and again
I feel the hours
Sliding by

[Chorus: Kimya Dawson & (Stephan Jenkins)]
Everyone is so self-righteous
(Get up on your own now
Way up on our own now)
Lift your head again and try this
Ooh

[Verse 3: Stephan Jenkins]
Do you want this in you?
You're the only thing that's real
And we don't need to beg or steal

[Ad Libs: Stephan Jenkins & Kimya Dawson]
- I actually like that thing that the idea that what you're wearing is worn by somebody who's probably been dead for a hundred years
- Alright

[Outro: Kimya Dawson]
Everyone is so self-righteous
Everyone is so self-righteous
