House of Cards |
| I was looking for you |
| You were buried under the sand |
| I was so busy painting pictures |
| Of the kings and queens who ruled this land |
| And they tried to hang me |
| From the gallows pole down in the yard |
| Oh, I spent my time |
| Building a house of cards. |
| I watched you building |
| Your bridges again |
| Just like a thief you never know when to stop |
| Or to start taking revenge |
| Oh, I tried so hard, I tried so hard |
| I tried so hard |
| But I just built myself a house |
| Out of your regards. |
| I was looking for you |
| You were waiting for me |
| Your shoes are sacred |
| There’s nothing left that you haven’t seen |
| And I watched you swinging |
| Watched you swinging down so far |
| I was looking for you |
| In my house of cards. |
| I saw you standing there |
| In the luggage van |
| And I held you for a lifetime |
| Hoping you might understand |
| I tried to give you reasons |
| Tried to tie you down to false regards |
| But you left me on an island |
| Left me in my house of cards. |
