House of Cards LyricsSo close yet so far, see the irony? (Irony)
Defeated, without an enemy (Enemy)
One finger close to finally make it
I deviated
I carried the hopes and the promises (Promises)
Now I'm left with a bitter feeling (Feeling)
A house of cards is everything I built
Now comes the wind
One card removed for all your sins
Try to add one to save the rest
One card is down, vanity needs payment
The house is trembling
One card removеd for your mistakes
And you add one in the panic
Onе card has burned
You blew on the embers
My house of cards is down
Running in circles
Waiting for the end
I am left with a bitter feeling
What can I do to pay for my mistakes?
Now comes the wind
You might also likeI only wanted to do what is right but
My life appears to be an endless night
The only thing I built to bring light is
My house of cards
One card removed for all your sins
Try to add one to save the rest
One card is down, vanity needs payment
The house is trembling
One card removed for your mistakes
And you add one in the panic
One card has burned
You blew on the embers
My house of cards is down
It's true I had it all
I threw it all away
I gave my life and in return
I had nothing except a house of cards
I gave my life for a lie
But I want it back
I want it back
I jumped into the unknown
And now I'm left all alone
One card is left, I won't waste it
That's all I have to save the rest
Maybe it's all I need to make it stand
The house is rising
One card is given for my sake
For the burdens of the journey
One card it's my last and only asset
My house of cards stands
