DOUBLE HELIX

[Intro]
Not ready for this yet, I resist stepping out
I'm too immature and the days are counting down
Can't get any words to escape from my own mouth
I hesitate too long, and you're gone now

[Hook 1]
Flashing morse on the screen
I know, it's a tossup
Counting all my days left
I think might have lost some
Don't recognize who's in the mirror
I don't know where they came from
That's a case of ID theft
Do I say something?
Taking all our DNA, I think
They may have crossed 'em
Piercings in my face
Double helix, and I feel numb
Ice cold stares
Blood draining from my septum
You turn away, I'm
Not someone to run from

[Verse]
Staring in your eyes, the
Endless void looking right back at me
Emotions in disguise. I'm
Planting my feet and getting there slowly
Just how close am I to
Getting exactly what I was looking for?
I'm looking to the sky and
Shattered stars blind my eyes as they rain down on me
Sending texts to me, it's a quarter past 3
And we don't got the right key to get home safely
Yelling, capital B, holding down the shift key
Put in the CD, quit spreading your potpourri

(Just how close am I?)
(I'm looking to the sky)

[Hook 2]
Every time you talk to me, I'm
Trying not to slip up
Ice is on the road, but I'm
Taking that as a plus, see you
Swerving in the rearview mirror
I don't know where you came from
Thinking 'bout the way you left
Do I say something?
Extracting samples of our genes, I think
They may have fused them
Feelings slip away
Double helix got me seeing the
World spinning 'round me
Gotta check up on my symptoms
When we watched the stars rain down
Why'd you go numb?

[Break]
Aa-aaa-aa-aaah
Aa-aaa-aa-aa-aah
Aa-aaa-aa-aa-oh
Aa-oh
Aa-aaa-aa-aaah
Aa-aaa-aa-aaah
Aa-aaa-aa-aa-oh
Aa-oh

[Hook 3]
Flashing morse on the screen
I know, its a tossup
Countin' all my days left
I think might have lost some
Don't recognize who's in the mirror
I don't know where they came from
That's a case of ID theft
Do I say something?
Takin' all our DNA, I think
They may have crossed 'em
Piercings in my face
Double helix, and I feel numb
Ice cold stares
Blood draining from my septum
You turn away, I'm
Not someone to run from
