On Delay

I hear it doubly clear

There’s a doubled exposure

Just waiting to happen

I’m sitting and fading

Rain tapping together

Two licks of the dog bone

Me slipping through belt loops

You running ahead of

The sound coming after

I hear it doubly clear

Two mannequins in the window

Suit up like twins on day one

Loud harks in the grandest canyon

Natural slap the world back at ya

It’s placing the mirror

And you will hear her

Throw two hacks attempting to chip it

Return of the bat crack

In a place called Camden

On delay two of us together

On delay the sweet of the double

On delay me right behind you

On delay my steps will follow

On delay two eyes that appeared there

You saw them both times

On delay looking at reflections

And you were one of them

And it was so nice

And it happened twice

A place that’s thrice best leading me into a feedback zone in which I lose time I’m finding new rhythms to hold on

So turned on by the delay

So turned on by the delay
