We live in a house of cards so tall It looks fine on the outside but it?s bound to fall But the looking good is easy It?s the feeling good that?s hard And this house is just a house of cards We?ve been bluffing each other for almost seven years We both put on out best poker face But inside we?re filled with tears I bet our love and lost in too many other secret games Now the love is spent and just the marriage remains Chorus You wear a diamond but you?ve got a broken heart We look like the perfect paid but we?re far apart It just a matter of time until the shiny surface fades And all that I?ve done wrong pays back in spades
