Verse 1:
We built this up with shaky hands,
Tried to stand tall, but we’re sinking in sand.
Every word’s like a paper cut,
We’re bleeding out, but we won’t give up.

Pre-Chorus:
Stacking lies like bricks in the dark,
Hoping no one will see the spark.
But one wrong move and it all will fall,
A house of cards, we can’t stand tall.

Chorus:
In this house of cards, we hold our breath,
Balancing love on the edge of death.
One small gust, and it’s all gone,
But we keep pretending we’re holding strong.
House of cards, we built so high,
But deep inside, we know it’s a lie.
We’re waiting for the fall, it’s bound to come,
In this house of cards, we’re both undone.

Verse 2:
We smile through the cracks, but the walls cave in,
Acting like we don’t know where we’ve been.
Every promise made feels like a joke,
Holding onto hope, but we’re bound to choke.

Pre-Chorus:
Stacking lies like bricks in the dark,
Hoping no one will see the spark.
But one wrong move and it all will fall,
A house of cards, we can’t stand tall.

Chorus:
In this house of cards, we hold our breath,
Balancing love on the edge of death.
One small gust, and it’s all gone,
But we keep pretending we’re holding strong.
House of cards, we built so high,
But deep inside, we know it’s a lie.
We’re waiting for the fall, it’s bound to come,
In this house of cards, we’re both undone.

Bridge:
We’re living on borrowed time,
Pretending everything’s fine.
But when the wind blows, we’ll watch it fall,
Our house of cards will lose it all.

Chorus:
In this house of cards, we hold our breath,
Balancing love on the edge of death.
One small gust, and it’s all gone,
But we keep pretending we’re holding strong.
House of cards, we built so high,
But deep inside, we know it’s a lie.
We’re waiting for the fall, it’s bound to come,
In this house of cards, we’re both undone.

Outro:
In this house of cards, we can’t stand tall,
One gust of truth, and it’ll end it all.
