Lyrics Third Eye Blind – Exiles
Text:
The studio’s red lights are a smoke-filled screen
Trying to find the sound, I can’t say what I mean
Are we breaking up the band? The naturals of dark arts
I think we like the feeling of falling apart
Well I remember everything I said
And I don’t take it back
In the silence of this breakup all my cracks are exposed
And then the night goes black on black
Cause I recognize something in you
that makes me feel I’m not alone
I recognize something deeper than I’ve ever known
And we’ll never change, we’ll never have a home
This is ours now for awhile
We’re exiles
We are exiles
A kitchen light at midnight, our flat mates are asleep
Before she makes me go, it’s about to go deep
You’re gonna miss us when we grow up
I miss your sweetness and your grief
And I may be a mystery, but you were beyond belief
When Ziggy Stardust plays at a karaoke bar
And I can’t remember the DJ’s name
Everyone knows who you are and
We’ll never change, we’ll never have a home
This is ours now for awhile
We’re exiles
We are exiles
We’re exiles so
We are exiles so slow
We’re exiles
Come and sing it out
You’re the next best thing to the devil
Come and sing it out at the crossroads
At the crossroads, yeah
Cause I recognize something in you
that makes me feel I’m not alone
And I recognize something deeper than I’ve ever known
And we’ll never change, we’ll never have a home
This is ours now for awhile
We’re exiles
We are exiles
