| Through my telescope, I can analyze
|
| What I don’t understand, I judge and criticize
|
| From my hiding place in the loneliness
|
| I fear I'öö lose control of my tainted soul
|
| Living in a time that is so hard to understand
|
| Watching everybody stake and claim
|
| the Promised Land
|
| Say they know the way or what you can
|
| depend upon
|
| I realize we’ve gone too far
|
| If I were born another man and personality
|
| Maybe in a distant and far off galaxy
|
| Somewhere in the universe there is a place for me
|
| I’m telling you
|
| We’re living in a house of cards
|
| It’s not ignorance, I have really tried
|
| To see every side and put away my pride
|
| From my solitude in the dark and cold
|
| Now my Shangri-La seems unreachable
|
| Living in a time that is so hard to understand
|
| Watching everybody stake and claim
|
| the Promised Land
|
| Say they know the way or what you can
|
| depend upon
|
| I realize we’ve gone too far
|
| If I were born another man and personality
|
| Maybe in a distant and far off galaxy
|
| Somewhere in the universe there is a place for me
|
| I’m telling you
|
| We’re living in a house of cards
|
| I cannot deny or be a stranger to myself
|
| I’m looking in the mirror and blaming no one else
|
| This house of cards is falling as I turn and walk away
|
| I realize we’ve gone too far
|
| What I thought was nothing might be
|
| something after all
|
| All the hidden meanings beyond what I control
|
| Struck by all the fear abd weakness
|
| hiding deep within
|
| I’m telling you we’re living in a house of cards |
