Ultraviolet

Blue house in a holy town
While I'm tired eyed tiptoeing around
Not a waste of time till the time runs out
But I'll never run out on you
I'll drip dry on the clothesline
Try to lure you out into the light
I'll be sweet, let you win
Drag me by my heart back in

I stay quiet, but I'm seeing ultraviolet
If I speak up, will you notice that I'm trying?
Wasted time that you could've been fighting
Wish you'd start a riot

The silence came
Creeping in slowly
Asleep in bed
You're still sweetly glowing

Warm bath in your baby blues
I'd hold my breath, I'd drown in you
While I wash off what you said
Crawl back into bed again
When the Moon's high and you come alive
I've waited up for the longest time
Ink stains inside my mind
I'm a victim of my own design

I stay quiet, but I'm seeing ultraviolet
If I speak up, will you notice that I'm trying?
Wasted time that you could've been fighting
Wish you'd start a riot

The silence came
Creeping in slowly
Asleep in bed
You're still sweetly glowing

The sink drips, the phone rings, I'm praying on both knees
Earthly desire caught this house on fire
The sink drips, the phone rings, I'm praying on both knees
Earthly desire caught this house on fire

I stay quiet, but I'm seeing ultraviolet
If I speak up, will you notice that I'm trying?
Wasted time that you could've been fighting
Wish you'd start a riot

The silence came
Creeping in slowly
Asleep in bed
You're still sweetly glowing
The silence came
Creeping in slowly
Asleep in bed
You're still sweetly glowing
