[Verse 1: Birthh]

I don't know where I would go

Without these feathers, I'd not reach the sun

And melt right back to Earth

With lunar objects in my pockets

I could jump so high, you know

No running start and I'll get to the ninth floor

At least or maybe more

Just tell me when, I'll check the weather


[Chorus: Birthh]

Maybe I'll design sunglasses

That can show ultraviolet

See what bees see, see how life is

Without having to pretend I like it

Maybe I'll design sunglasses

That can show ultraviolet

See what bees see, see how life is

Without having to pretend I like it


[Bridge: Ivy Sole]

And lately I just cannot pretend that I cannot

Befriending all my demons and turning slow in a sandlot

Counting every baseless assumption I need to shed

It's swarming my concentration like honeybees in my head

My legs, heavy, sticky with the lingering of summer

My stomach be growing wings when I get too close to a ledge

The edge be calling to me on the days I don't get slumber

But numbering all my loves helping me choosing the roof instead

And just maybe what you see is UV rays

'Cause you teach my teeth to show their face

And you be, my heart, be still, be smart

Be part of me, don't part 'cause this park

Is lilac so lie back and let's count sheep

To drift to a place where we see UV

Let's drift to a place where we see UV

My ultraviolet love


[Verse 2: Birthh]

I don't know where I would go

Without these feathers, I'd not reach the sun

And melt right back to Earth

With lunar objects in my pockets

I could jump so high, you know

No running start and I'll get to the ninth floor

At least or maybe more

Just tell me when, I'll check the weather
