​fluorescent Switchfoot

[Intro]
One, two, three and

[Verse 1]
I am the moth beating his wings against the dusty window
Outside of your dull, fluorescent light
Youth was dark with the simple things
You had your light, I had my wings
You were the brightest star in the black night
My fluorescent girl in the city light

[Chorus]
How long, my fluorescent favorite?
How long 'til you are mine?
Today, tonight? Today, tonight?
How long, my fluorescent light?

[Verse 2]
The spiders, and the ants, and the dance goes
Two by two into arks of oblivion (Ha)
Ours is a desperate song
"You're not that bright, I'm not that strong"
And our outcome looks exceedingly clear
We are always separate, always near

[Chorus]
How long, my fluorescent favorite?
How long 'til you are mine?
Today, tonight? Today, tonight?
How long, my fluorescent light, oh-oh-oh?
How long, my fluorescent favorite?
How long 'til you run out of light?
A year, a month, a day, a night?
How long, my fluorescent light?
