House of Cards

Ain't it funny how it's always the same
 Thought you couldn't lose when you played this game
 Then everything changed
 And you could go on
 But your world's all wrong
 So you count to ten, then open your eyes
 What you really want is to be surprised
 But they're telling you lies
 And you could go on
 But your world's all wrong, your world's all wrong
 And this house of cards you're living in
 Is falling down on you
 It's a one way street you're driving on
 The signs are all around you
 And this shooting star you're hanging on
 Won't make your dreams come true
 Now it feels like it's already done
 Now you realize that you weren't the one
 You're losing the sun
 It doesn't seem real
 It's not what you feel
 So you live alone like you are possessed
 Look at your life like it's some kind of test
 Go on give it your best
 Try and move on
 But your world's all wrong, your dreams are gone
 And this house of cards you're living in
 Is falling down on you
 It's a shadow world you're moving in
 And they cannot touch you
 Yes the walls are caving in again
 Do you know what to do
 Do you know what to do
 And they're falling, they're falling, they're falling
 Ain't it funny how it's always the same
 Thought you couldn't lose when you played this game
