House of Cards

04 - House of Cards

starting
starting over
my precarious house of cards
when, precious home of mine
when, do you fall?

building
building over ruin
building over ashes
this could be anything
when, exactly do you help me, little girl?
when will you help me, pretty girl?

// why must you bring this down?
// why do you test me?
// everything i’ve fought for
// razed to the ground under my knees
// everything, everything, everything
// is bullsh-t
// everything, everything, i’ve ever won
// is bullsh-t

starting
starting over
my broken home of cards
when, precious pile of mine
when do i fail?
when does my empire fall?

(chorus)

starting
starting over
my precarious house of cards
when, precious home of mine
when do you fall?

watching
watching my enemies
close for the kill
my fragile damaged soul
my f–ked up broken heart
when…
when can i just give up?
when can i sleep again?

(chorus)
