House of Cards

So close yet so far, see the irony? (Irony) Defeated, without an enemy (Enemy) One finger close to finally make it I deviated I carried the hopes and the promises (Promises) Now I'm left with a bitter feeling (Feeling) A house of cards is everything I built Now comes the wind One card removed for all your sins Try to add one to save the rest One card is down, vanity needs payment The house is trembling One card removеd for your mistakes And you add one in the panic Onе card has burned You blew on the embers My house of cards is down Running in circles Waiting for the end I am left with a bitter feeling What can I do to pay for my mistakes? Now comes the wind I only wanted to do what is right but My life appears to be an endless night The only thing I built to bring light is My house of cards One card removed for all your sins Try to add one to save the rest One card is down, vanity needs payment The house is trembling One card removed for your mistakes And you add one in the panic One card has burned You blew on the embers My house of cards is down It's true I had it all I threw it all away I gave my life and in return I had nothing except a house of cards I gave my life for a lie But I want it back I want it back I jumped into the unknown But now I'm left all alone One card is left, I won't waste it That's all I have to save the rest Maybe it's all I need to make it stand The house is rising One card is given for my sake For the burdens of the journey One card it's my last and only asset My house of cards stands
