Lyrics Matthew Mayfield - Team

call all the ladies out
they’re in their finery
a hundred jewels on throats
a hundred jewels between teeth
now bring my boys in
their skin in craters like the moon
the moon we love like a brother
while he glows through the room

dancing around the lies we tell
dancing around big eyes as well, ah
even the comatose
they don’t dance and tell

we live in cities you’ll never see on screen
not very pretty, but we sure know how to run things
living in ruins of the palace within my dreams
and you know we’re on each other’s team

i’m kind of over getting told to throw my hands up in the air
so there

so all the cups got broke
shards beneath our feet
but it wasn’t my fault
and everyone’s competing
for a love they won’t receive
’cause what this palace wants is release

we live in cities you’ll never see on screen
not very pretty, but we sure know how to run things
living in ruins of the palace within my dreams
and you know we’re on each other’s team
we’re on each other’s team, and you know
we’re on each other’s team…

i’m kind of over getting told to throw my hands up in the air
so there
i’m kind of older than i was when i reveled without a care
so there

we live in cities you’ll never see on screen
not very pretty, but we sure know how to run things
living in ruins of the palace within my dreams
and you know we’re on each other’s team
we’re on each other’s team
and you know we’re on each other’s team
we’re on each other’s team
and you know we’re on each other’s team
we’re on each other’s team…
and you know, and you know.
