Double Life
Soliterre Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A look that's saying you got me where you want me
Grab me by the heart, taking me higher
Watching the sweat beads rolling down your body
Out of sight, she's the queen of the night
All eyes are on you, don't wanna miss this
But where do you go when they turn on the lights
When you get to do the things that no one gets to witness 'cause...
(Ooooh) She's a dancer
She can't help keeping me awake at night
(Ooooh) She's a dancer
She can't help living in a double life
(Ooooh) She's a dancer
She can't help keeping me awake at night
(Ooooh) She's a dancer
She can't help living in a double life
On the beat, she'll be walking the streets
A fallen angel, bathed in the neon
I close my eyes, she appears in my dreams
You'll be my only, someone to lean on
Out of sight, she's the queen of the night
They throw you money, you blow 'em kisses
But where do you go when they turn out the lights
When you get to do the things that no one gets to witness 'cause...
(Ooooh) She's a dancer
She can't help keeping me awake at night
(Ooooh) She's a dancer
She can't help living in a double life
(Ooooh) She's a dancer
She can't help keeping me awake at night
(Ooooh) She's a dancer
She can't help living in a double life
(Ooooh)
(Ooooh)
(Ooooh) She's a dancer
She can't help keeping me awake at night
(Ooooh) She's a dancer
She can't help living in a double life
(Ooooh) She's a dancer
She can't help keeping me awake at night
(Ooooh) She's a dancer
She can't help living in a double life
The song "Double Life" by Soliterre is a tribute to a stripper, who lives a double life. The opening lines "light the fire, feel the heat of desire" create an atmosphere of passion and lust. The lyrics describe how the woman, who is a queen of the night, is the center of attention, and all eyes are on her, but when the lights go out, she goes back to her double life. The repetition of the chorus emphasizes the dancer's struggle with living a double life and how she can't help but keep the singer awake at night.
The song's verse talks about how the dancer walks the streets and is a fallen angel bathed in neon, which creates an illusion of perfection, but in reality, she is struggling with her life choices. The lyrics "you'll be my only, someone to lean on" convey the dancer's plea for emotional support in her double life. The song ends with the dancer's continued struggle between the two lives she lives.
Overall, "Double Life" is a poignant portrayal of a stripper's life, who lives in two different worlds, and how she can't help but live in a double life. The catchy music and the relatable lyrics make it a popular song among music lovers.
