[Verse 1]
Since 2006 I haven't been the same
Between fiction and fact
Which one of us changed?
Now I’m a mother of three
I'm not living for myself
I'm dancing right here, but my heart is somewhere else
[Pre-Chorus]
Sing my songs, bang my head
Rush me home, back to bed
[Chorus]
When you live a double life, it’s dangerous
Oh, not to fear love, not to fear
Keep it calm, calm, calm, it's dangerous
Oh, not to fear love, not to fear
[Verse 2]
I been trying to get a grip for all eternity
I know we don't know a man who acts maternally
And I'm on the brink of civil war, need a gender-fluid Jesus morе
I'm dancing right here, but my heart is always torn
[Pre-Chorus]
Sing my songs, bang my hеad
Cry my tears, baby's breath
[Chorus]
When you live a double life, it's dangerous
Oh, not to fear love, not to fear
Keep it calm, calm, calm, it's dangerous
Oh, not to fear love, not to fear
[Bridge]
Oh, oh-oh (Work it out, child, work it out, child)
Oh-oh, oh, oh-oh (Don’t you feel more dead than alive?)
[Chorus]
When you live a double life, it’s dangerous
Oh, not to fear love, not to fear
Keep it calm, calm, calm, it's dangerous
Oh, not to fear love, not to fear
[Outro]
When you live a double life, it’s dangerous
Oh, not to fear love, not to fear
Keep it calm, calm, calm, it's dangerous
Oh, not to fear love, not to fear

Nathan Willett:
We all lead dual lives to some extent: one that reflects our authentic selves and another that feels uncomfortable or out of place in our surroundings. As a parent, [for] the last few years my attention is always divided. And for myself and my friends, we are in this life phase wher...
Nathan Willett:
Musically, I was listening to the Pretenders song “The Wait” a lot. It has that fun bounce, swing and jerky rock ‘n’ roll riff. I think some of that rubbed off on “Double Life.” I think we all live a double life on some level. One that is deeply authentic and natural and another tha...
