House of Cards

Built on a perilous foundation
Likely to cave in
Fix this broken melody
Don't always look for what's in the end
Pick up the pieces, start again
I'm yearning to mend our hearts
We're in too deep to give up
It's only a matter of time, my love
I fear the fall of our house of cards
It never had to be this way
I only wanted you to stay
Just
Give me a reason why
All we have to do is try
My love, it won't fade away
Please give me the time of day
To
Say what you mean to me
I love you in memory
Now burn it down, bury our hearts
What the fuck could I have done
This collapse was inevitable
The depth of distance took away our love
What the fuck could I have done
Just a repeat
Of history
No, we can't fight a change, this is our destiny
I spent a lifetime thinking this
Was all I wanted; it wasn't just take it from here
It never had to be this way
I only wanted you to stay
Just
Give me a reason why
All we have to do is try
My love, it won't fade away
Please give me the time of day
To
Say what you mean to me
I love you in memory
