Team

(album: Trying: Season 3 - 2022)

I thought we were a team
Each of us bringing half the dream
No storm that we could not weather
We make our mistakes together
I thought you could tell me anything
No cracks for us to fall between
But here I am clinging on
To the edge of what made us strong

I don't need protecting from what frightens you

I want you to know you can talk to me
I wanna know that I can talk to you
Why can't you swallow your pride?
What good's it done in your whole damn life?
I thought that we were a team

I'm so sorry that I lied
I wanted to hide it from your eyes
How hard it is I'm trying
To keep our dreams from dying
But if I didn't hide the truth
I'd still hide my shame from you
Some faces there's no saving
Some storms there's no braving
I don't know how to be vulnerable
Especially around you

I want you to know you can talk to me
I wanna know that I can talk to you
I'm sick of choking on my pride
It's the story of my life
I thought we were a team

I want you to know you can talk to me
I wanna know that I can talk to you
Why can't you swallow your pride?
What good's it done in your whole damn life?
I thought we were a team

I thought we were a team
