Candlebox - Vexatious Lyrics






All day long (baby)
So made up (baby, baby)

All the things that you said you believed in
Another victim of the "who's staring" feeling
Another object, yes, you want the pursuing
Red dress, skinny mess, lips drawn, you go

Can you do what's been done?
Can you shine in the sun?
So isolated
Can you make it a day
Without making your way,
Making your way to the edge?
(Hey hey)

Vex-a-tious (baby)
So bla-tant (baby, baby)

All of the things that you do to entice just
Another reason for the world to embrace you
Another glance, yes we're all looking up to
Bed head, shirtless, lips drawn, you go

Can you do what's been done?
Can you shine in the sun?
So isolated
Can you make it a day
Without making your way
To the edge? To the edge?
And you wish you were dead
Keep on pushing ahead
So suffocated
Can't you see that we see
You're so clever with all
Yeah, all you precede

Yeah (yeah)
Making your way to the edge

Can you do what's been done?
Can you shine in the sun?
So isolated
Can you make it a day
Without making your way,
Making your way to the edge? (To the edge)
And you wish you were dead
Keep on pushing ahead
So suffocated
Can't you see that we see
You're so clever with all
All, clever with all you precede

Can you do what's been done?
Can you shine in the sun?
So isolated
Can you make it a day
Without making your way,
Making your way to the edge?
And you wish you were dead
Keep on pushing ahead
So suffocated
Can't you see that we see
You're so clever with all
You're so clever with all you precede

    Seen them right after this came out at The Bear's Big Growl in South Bend IN.... absolutely jammed even still today....

  5. k.... ....

    Wow. They sound so much more...relaxed and the song flows better than a lot of their heyday stuff. Nice. Should've been huge.

  6. F.... M....

    Sounds almost exactly like one of the Gracious Few songs. Can’t ‘member offhand the name of it.

  12. G.... E....

    Who's the drummer? Dave Krusen?

    G.... E....

    According to Wikipedia Krusen's been back with the band since 2015, so I guess so. Wish the camera operator\video editor gave him more time. Did you catch him on the Pearl Jam Hall of Fame Induction? =) "Krusen was the second drummer for Candlebox, replacing previous drummer Scott Mercado. Krusen joined in 1997 and recorded the album Happy Pills (1998) while as a member of the band. Krusen left the band in 1999 and was replaced by Shannon Larkin of Ugly Kid Joe. Krusen completed eight tracks on the Candlebox record, Into the Sun, which was released in July 2008 and nine tracks on the latest Candlebox record, Love Stories & Other Musings, which was released in April 2012. As of 2015 he has rejoined the band."

  13. R.... P....

    Peter Klett has left the band?

  14. F.... O....

    They are no Candlebox anymore... only the singer.

    F.... O....

    +Chris “Wtf78” S Are you going to the Denver show?  I waited too long and now it's sold out!  Anyway, long shot, I know...but if you know anyone selling a ticket I am looking!  If not, then that's okay...figured I'd at least ask.  Enjoy the show...

  36. i.... ....

    I just can't get over how seamlessly 2 guitarists and a drummer joined the band. Just another day in the Candlebox journey it seems. Fantastic song btw. Kevin Martin is the man!

    i.... ....

    Well, Dave Krusen had already recorded one full album (Happy Pills) and appeared on Into The Sun and Love Stories. He has been involved with the band more than Scott Mercado. Love them both.

    Tuche! Good point, and further agreed. Mercado and Krusen are both awesome!
