[Intro – 2 bars instrumental] (Slow biker guitar riff, slide accents, distant thunder. Strings swell. Drums and bass enter halfway.) [Verse 1] Three days straight, no sleep in sight, Facetime glow in the dead of night. Fourteen hours just seein’ your face, Now I’m a ghost in my own damn place. Donna’s screamin’ ‘bout the mold in the wall, But I ain’t hearin’ nothin’, girl, I’m under your thrall. Acorn Fencing’s got jobs to do, But I’m welded to my screen, just stuck on you. [Chorus] Facetime fever, got me down on my knees, Talkin’ ‘bout love while my business bleeds. From Carolina dirt to your Oslo skies, I’d trade my last breath for your look in my eyes. [Instrumental Fill – 2 bars] (Slide guitar + strings, drums riding cymbals.) [Verse 2] My red ‘California’ tank top’s soaked, Dreamin’ ‘bout you till my brain gets smoked. Busted back, arms achin’ from the day, But one “Hey baby” makes the pain go away. Donna’s hoardin’ junk like Noah’s ark, Whole damn house smellin’ way too dark. But girl, I’d walk through a swamp of sin, Just to kiss your lips when you let me in. [Chorus] Facetime fever, got me down on my knees, Talkin’ ‘bout love while my business bleeds. From Carolina dirt to your Oslo skies, I’d trade my last breath for your look in my eyes. [Bridge – 2 bars] (Southern slide guitar dueling with symphonic strings. Drums go half-time, then build to double kick.) [Verse 3] Three days later, I’m flat in bed, Visions of you runnin’ through my head. Donna’s prayin’ to her holy ghost, Sayin’ “Lord, save this sinner most!” But baby, you’re my sacred sin, I’d risk hellfire just to taste your skin. Facetime calls and your wicked smile, Girl, you got me losin’ my mind in style. [Double Chorus] Facetime fever, got me down on my knees, Talkin’ ‘bout love while my business bleeds. From Carolina dirt to your Oslo skies, I’d trade my last breath for your look in my eyes. Facetime fever, yeah, you burn me alive, Every pixel of you keeps my soul revived. From moldy walls to the great unknown, You’re my only home, you’re my only home. [Extended Outro – 2 bars] (Slide guitar wails, strings stab in between riffs. Motorcycle revving fades in and blends with final sustained guitar chord.)
