My Football Team

Your parents say you’re too much to handle,
 but I think they’re just scared
They’re in love with suburbia and you’re anywhere but there 
I wish they saw you like I do instead of looking through their neighbors eyes 
but as hard as you try, they won’t so just let me hold you tight. 

I can be here for you, 
you’re my football team,
and I’m rooting for you 

All your stars are heroes just cause they run real fast 
They don’t even know you, 
but you wear their numbers on your back
I watch you chase for approval, 
only to find a kind of hell because the only way to win that game is his sacrifice yourself

Why can’t they leave you alone leave you alone leave you alone, 
so let me hold you 
Let me hold let me hold you close

I can be here for you 
You’re my football team and I’m rooting for you. 
I can be here for you 
you’re my football team and I’m rooting for you 

So let me hold you close, let me hold let me hold you close, 
so let me hold you close, let me hold you, let me hold you close.
