House of Cards

It's falling all around
this house of cards
falling down down down
I'm on the top floor
tumbling toward the ground
the cards fluttering
fluttering down down down

I can't believe this
a house of cards
made of dreams and lies
I can't catch myself
I'm falling
falling
smashing to the ground

It's raining all around
cursed house of cards
raining down down down
I'm here on the edge
looking toward the ground
the lies pattering
pattering down down down

I can't contain this
a house of cards
made of dreams and lies
I can't save myself
I'm falling
falling
crashing to the ground

It's fading all around
dead house of cards
slipping down down down
I'm lost in the storm
lying on the ground
the pieces shattering
shattering down down down

I can't rebuild this
a house of cards
made of dreams and lies
I can't brace myself
I'm falling
falling
dashing to the ground

I can't... I can't...
Oh God, it's a house of cards
made of dreams and lies
I can't hold myself
I'm falling
falling
falling to the ground
I can't... I'm falling
falling
fallen to the ground.
