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
Dancin' around the lies we tell
Dancin' around big eyes, as well
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
Livin' in ruins of a 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,
and you know, and you know
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
Livin' in ruins of a palace
within my dreams
And you know,
we're on each other's team
I'm kind of over gettin' 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
Livin' in ruins of a 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,
and you know, and you know
