I think this song is about an off-and-on relationship where the girl is always going out "taking on trouble" and she expects him not to use sound judgment by taking her back (seeing double, read: drunk) or seeing her other (double) side that is good.
"Tangled in feathers" refers to feathers from a feather pillow/mattress.
"tired and hoarse" means from sex and breathing during sex.
"Caught up in tethers you are the source" means he's tied to her and can't get away/he's on her tether.
"Whenever you're drifting from pillow to pillow, you always expect me to lift up my window" means she sleeps with other guys, but always wants to come back to him)
"I'd rather see you in color" refers to how you can only really see shades of gray at night- which is when the girl gets lonely or wants to be with him. The whole cones and rods thing with night and day and you optical nerves...
"Carry the weekend, fist in the air. Tonight you'll be back with hands in my hair" means she'll go out ready to have an exciting weekend, but she'll want to come back to him at night.
