House Of Cards

We all live in a house of cards
With diamonds in our eyes hands on our hearts
And we all bluff before we fold
But we’ve grown tired of the lies that we’ve sold

And are we sinners are we saints
Are we heroes are we ghosts
And though I’ve had the best of both
Do I have something to show
And will we run and hide away
Or we will fight for a better day
Only then we will truly know
That we had something to show

We all wish for a better life
But progress is a blood soaked knife
Our dreams could drown on the river
Or fly higher than before
So we play the hand were dealt and hope to
Reach for something more

And are we sinners are we saints
Are we heroes are we ghosts
And though I’ve had the best of both
Do I have something to show
And will we run and hide away
Or we will fight for a better day
Only then we will truly know
That we had something to show

I’ll burn down this house of cards
I’ll say goodbye give my regards

And are we sinners are we saints
Are we heroes are we ghosts
And though I’ve had the best of both
Do I have something to show
And will we run and hide away
Or we will fight for a better day
Only then we will truly know
That we had something to show
