House Of Cards
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Take another step/then another/ then another dying breath/
Nine lives have come and gone/number 10 is what I'm on/
Look the other way/then another/then another gets away/
So I climb down off my cross/and I fight another day…
What don't kill me/makes me stronger/I'm holding on, enjoying the ride/
'Cause I've been living in a house of cards with a hurricane outside….
Take another step/then another/ then another dying breath/
Sedating my sedation 'til I'm blind/
A brand new way to waste my waste of time…
What don't kill me/makes me stronger/I'm holding on, enjoying the ride/
'Cause I've been living in a house of cards with a hurricane outside….
Outside/outside and I taste the taste of blood and it's Mine….
What don't kill me/makes me stronger/I'm holding on, enjoying the ride/
'Cause I've been living in a house of cards with a hurricane outside….
