House Of Cards

Why do you run from me?

You know you cannot escape from me

I’m sorry, but there is no way out

Searching, always searching for a way

Out of an endless maze

With traps and tricks to catch the innocent

Realize you brought this down on yourself

So you see what you wanted

Your sick and twisted lie turned back on you

You played your cards so well

But we both know you cheat

The construct of lies will fall

Like a house of cards one blow from caving in

So tell me was it worth the price?

Can you still look me in the eyes?

Tell me, I guess I don’t understand

Are you surprised to see me here?

The scales fell from my eyes

It’s such a shame what you’ve become

Oh! I never did believe

A single word you say

You always try to bend the truth I know

Such a hypocrite to me

Now you got what you deserve

You should pull a card

And you pulled out the bottom one

You played all your cards

I won fair in square

Next round’s on you

I didn’t care

Try as you might

But what’s the use of trying?

I control the cards

I’ll deal them as I wish

Your house of cards

Built up with lies

Collapsed on you

It’s far too late

You knocked it down

You can’t blame me

The blame’s on you

Why can’t you see?
