I wish that I could believe you
I wish that I could believe in us
I wish I could stop all the bleeding
I wish that it didn't hurt at all
and I said
here in this house of cards
you and me play a game of hearts
it's for keeps
cause we've got nothing left to lose
we keep it close to the vest
we say it under our breath
and neither one of us will back down now
here in this house of cards
ready to fall apart
we just keep on
playing the same hand
and you're so hard to read
but I still know your tell
so lay it out on the table
I wanna know what you really mean
I want the truth if you're able
don't pretend anymore for me
and I said
here in this house of cards
you and me play a game of hearts
it's for keeps
cause we've got nothing left to lose
we keep it close to the vest
we say it under our breath
and neither one of us will back down now
here in this house of cards
ready to fall apart
we just keep on
playing the same hand
and you're so hard to read
but I still know your tell
and I said
here in this house of cards
