In My Veins

Jesse McCartney · Departure Recharged [2009]

I'm an addict, a junkie, a fiend

I gotta have it, it keeps callin' for me

I need a fix, a quick hit

My body's achin', hands are shakin' for it



It's like dope man, 'cause it's so dope man

I'm a customer, get serviced on the regular

With that drug man, it keeps me up man

Can't get enough, no I can't get enough



It's like a blood rush straight to my head

When I think about you in my bed



She's all up in my veins

Ooh I got addicted

Her love is so addictive

It took over me



She's all up in my veins

It's like a gotta shot

Injection to my heart

It flows through my body



She's all up in my veins

And I need it everyday

Good lovin' oh baby, oh yeah, oh yeah

She's all up in my veins, veins, veins

She's all up in my veins, veins, veins

Ooh oh



Take the car, the keys to the crib

The pin number to the ATM

All my money, you can have it all for a hit, hit, hit



Ain't no rehab gon' help it 'cause I'm fiendin' outta control

Your the medicine baby, write me up for one more dose

I'm high as a kite now

Ooh and I'm floatin' on Cloud 9



It's like a blood rush straight to my head

When I think about you in my bed



She's all up in my veins

Ooh I got addicted

Her love is so addictive

It took over me



She's all up in my veins

It's like a gotta shot

Injection to my heart

It flows through my body



She's all up in my veins

And I need it everyday

Good lovin' oh baby, oh yeah, oh yeah

She's all up in my veins, veins, veins

She's all up in my veins, veins, veins

Ooh oh



Shorty the love I give

It's so insane

It's like ooh-oh, ooh-oh, ooh-oh, ooh-oh



Shorty the love you give

It's on my brain

It's like ooh-oh, ooh-oh, ooh-oh, ooh-oh



Are you ready, 'cause I'm ready ooh-oh

Are you ready, 'cause I'm ready

Girl get ready, 'cause I'm ready ooh-oh-oh

Girl I'm addicted to you



She's all up in my veins

Ooh I got addicted

Her love is so addictive

It took over me



She's all up in my veins

It's like a gotta shot

Injection to my heart

It flows through my body



She's all up in my veins

And I need it everyday

Good lovin' oh baby, oh yeah, oh yeah

She's all up in my veins, veins, veins

She's all up in my veins, veins, veins

Ooh oh



She's all up in my veins

She's all up in my veins

In My Veins

Jesse McCartney's "In My Veins" serves as a poignant centerpiece on his 2009 album *Departure Recharged*. Released during a pivotal period in his career, the track exemplifies his signature blend of pop-rock and emotional balladry, characterized by soaring vocals and introspective lyrics. The song reflects McCartney's continued exploration of personal vulnerability and romantic longing, themes that have defined much of his discography since his early days with the band The Script. With its polished production and melodic structure, the recording stands as a testament to his ability to craft accessible yet deeply felt pop anthems that resonate with listeners seeking emotional connection through music.
