House of Cards

I will take this night to recall in memory all our time.
By the time that the sun rises I'll be fine.
When I see you now, I will look upon a different person,
One who does not stir inside me, inside me,
Something so STRONG.

--CHORUS-
I will lock her away in the back of my mind
There will be no more illusions to sit and unwind
I will visit her only in the depths of the night,
Alone.

We'll talk of the past,
Stories and photographs.
The people involved won't seem like you and me.
The people involved won't seem like anyone
Who's ever been close to me.
I hope you see,

--CHORUS-

This House of Cards that I've come to call me heart,
Is just as frail as it's been from the start.
This House of Cards that I've come to call my heart,
Can be rebuilt…

So knock me down, I can take it.
I've built it back before.
