House of Cards

Don't wanna talk about yesterday
Wiht all of these thorns in my side
Old devil with a new conspiracy
With no place for him hide
Freeze frame! Can Somebody tell me
Is there no more loyalty?
Hands Break...But you should have known by now
That there's a price, for slowing us down
There's nothing left to save
Nothing left to save to start again
When all I needed was one night...of sanctuary
And pray you'd turn your wrongs to right
Your sleight of hand made your
House of cards fall down
So now you're swinging from the mercy tree
The blinders ripped from your eyes
I saw you coming from miles away
Your bark was worse than your bite
Freeze frame! Can Somebody tell me
Is there no more loyalty?
Hands Break...But you should have known by now
That there's a price, for slowing us down
There's nothing left to save
Nothing left to save to start again
When all I needed was one night...of sanctuary
And pray you'd turn your wrongs to right
Your sleight of hand made your
House of cards fall down
FALLING DOWN!
FALLING DOWN!
FALLING DOWN!
Do you know where you're going?
When there's no one to drive to home?
I've grown tired of waiting
When your excuses are all for show
There's no light up the road...
When you trade your highs for lows
I feel the sunlight shining
But your as cold as the day is long
When all I needed was one night...of sanctuary
And pray you'd turn your wrongs to right
You were never there...when I needed...when I needed...
A friend to save me
I played the hand you dealt now I'm standing on much higher grounds as your...
House of cards fall down
