Ultraviolet (feat. Katy Alex)

We met stocking shelves in a toy store at fifteen

Singing out dancing the aisles

And hed tell me stories of girls that he liked and Id

Just nod along and smile

Then mid way year 10 he went full time &I asked him why

He didnt wanna go to school

He said he had dreams and believed he was now free to do em

But could tell there was more

I got the feeling you were hiding

Hiding yourself away

Oh keeping all your disco lighting side of the stage

When boy you glow a kaleidoscope a firework display

And all your ultraviolet goes to waste

When you cover it up in grey

Wed bond over musicals movies and singing songs

Acting out all the scenes

I would be Jack hed be Rose just like Kate and Leo

And wed drown out Celine

Hed make me wear shoes that I couldnt walk straight in

Earning my stripes in fake tan

Wed show the world all our dance moves at clubs

And both make out with a man

But youd lie about where weve been

One night we sat out front of my house

He buried his face in his hands

He had to come clean and he said that if I didnt wanna be friends

Hed understand

He said he left school cause the guys in his class

Made his life living hell every day

They pushed him over they broke his hip

Stood over him couldnt shine in the shade

Oh now I see how youre surviving

By hiding yourself away

Oh but all your disco lighting

Should be centre stage

Cause boy you glow a kaleidoscope a firework display

So let your ultraviolet radiate

Let all your ultraviolet take up the space

In your own damn neon way

And fuck what anyone else wants to say
