Double Take

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Looking for your face

Where it could never be

I'm following a trail that only I can see

Blazing waves of heat

I press on in tiny bursts of speed

Caught in my pursuit

I play the fetishistic mission

The longing that I feel drives me mad in your direction

Nailed by something cute

I tear it out with microsurgical precision

Incender

Put some gas on the embers

Lightning goes to ground

Incender

Crazy fool on a bender

Striking the ground

Burning me down

Double take

Left with an aftertaste

I look again

Was it your face?

Double take

I'm in an altered state

I look again

Was it really you?

Another flash of face igniting and familiar

Pulls me by the eye to the perimiter

Riveting my gaze

Is that your face in the crowd?

Incender

Drop some gas on the ember

I felt a slap on the face

Incender

Crazy fool on a bender

Striking the ground

Burning me down

Double take

Left with an aftertaste

I look again

Was it your face?

I fell awake

I'm in an altered state

I look again

Was it really you?

Double take

Left with an aftertaste

I look again

Was it your face?

Looking for your face where it could never be

I'm following a trail that only I can see

Double take

I'm in an altered state

I look again

Was it really you?
