House of Cards - Alexander Stewart

Changing flights and changing my mind every day

I cope with the pain but to be honest, things don’t feel the same

Since you left LA

All the stars couldn’t lead me where you are

Should’ve known that in the dark I’d be too dumb to see

Even though you’re laying next to me, can’t give me what I need

And God I have some questions

How many drinks does it take to walk away

How many times will I fuck it up and stay

I don’t know how to love you from afar, you have my heart

'Til we fall just like a house of cards

Of cards

Call your bluff, tell me who are you trying to convince

It’s not enough if your words never lead you to commit

You know it feels like shit

All the stars couldn’t lead me where you are

Should’ve known that in the dark I’d be too dumb to see

Even though you’re laying next to me, can’t give me what I need

And God I have some questions

How many drinks does it take to walk away

How many times will I fuck it up and stay

I don’t know how to love you from afar, you have my heart

'Til we fall just like a house of cards

Of cards, of cards, of cards

If we’re made of paper, there’s bound to be flames

I’ll hold us together, but is it in vain?

If one gust of wind could be all that it takes, oh

If we’re made of paper, there’s bound to be flames

I’ll hold us together, but is it in vain?

If one gust of wind could be all that it takes

All that it takes, all that it takes

How many drinks does it take to walk away

How many times will I fuck it up and stay

I don’t know how to love you from afar, you have my heart

'Til we fall just like a house of cards

Of cards, of cards, of cards
