[Verse 1]
Looking for your face where it could never be
I'm following a trail that only I can see
Raising waves of heat
I press on in tiny bursts of speed

[Verse 2]
Caught in my pursuit, I play the fetishist admission
The longing that I feel drives me mad in no direction
Nailed by something cute, I tear it out with micro-surgical precision

[Verse 3]
Incender
Put some gas on the ember
Lightning goes to ground

[Verse 4]
Incender
Crazy fool on a bender
Striking the ground
Burning me down

[Pre Chorus]
Double take
Left with an aftertaste
I look again
Was it your face?

[Chorus]
Double take
I'm in an altered state
I look again
Was it really you?

[Verse 5]
Another flash of face, igniting and familiar pulls me by the eye to the perimeter
Riveting my gaze
Is that your face in the crowd?

[Verse 6]
Incender
Drop some gas on the ember
I felt a slap on the face

[Verse 7]
Incender
Crazy fool on a bender
Striking the ground, burning me down

[Pre Chorus]

[Chorus]
I fell awake
I'm in an altered state
I look again
Was it really you?

[Pre Chorus]

[Verse 8]
Looking for your face where it could never be
I'm following a trail that only I can see

[Chorus]
Double take
I'm in an altered state
I look again
Was it really you?

[Verse 9]
I'm following a trail that only I can see

Blondie is an American rock band founded by singer Deborah Harry and guitarist Chris Stein. The band was a pioneer in the early American new wave and punk scenes of the mid-1970s. Their first two albums contained strong elements of these genres, and although successful in the United Kingdom and Australia, Blondie was regarded as an underground band in the United States until the release of Parallel Lines in 1978. Over the next three years, the band achieved several hit singles including “Call Me”, “Atomic” and “Heart of Glass” and became noted for its eclectic mix of musical styles incorporating elements of disco, pop, rap, and reggae, while retaining a basic style as a new wave band.
