You're up on the scoreboard But the audience is sick of this collateral damage And this game's been going on for far too long And the audience is sick of the same old song We don't need a coach to recognize what matters most And we don't need a book of plays to construct security And everyone's a thief these days Just trying to find the next loop that pays But now you and me We refuse to play We both have beating hearts underneath our skin So let the games begin And hopefully we can build shelter from the storm Before they go for the win We don't need a coach to recognize what matters most to us And we don't need a book of plays to construct security We got a voice and a brain And we've got to be playing from inside of this city And everyone's a thief these days Just trying to find the next loop that pays But now you and me We refuse to play We both have beating hearts underneath our skin So let the games begin And hopefully we can build shelter from the storm Before they go for the win Before they go for the win We don't need a coach to recognize what matters most to us And we don't need a book of plays to construct security
