MADINA LAKE - House of Cards

It's late at night and the world's asleep
And I'm trying not to think
I take some pills cuz my mind bleeds
I'm thinking what is wrong with me
Because the only thing I know
About honesty
Is every lie I've told
That you believed

I'm afraid
to be alone
I'm afraid
That one day you'll find out

And you'd be amazed
At the secrets I keep
You'd be amazed
At my mouth full of lies
But I'm too afraid to come clean
My life's the flame in a house of cards

Now I can't look you in your eyes
Because the guilt is killing me
I try disconnect my heart again
Just so I can breathe
I wanna be myself again
But I just can't cuz

I'm afraid
to be alone
I'm afraid
That one day you'll find out

And you'd be amazed
At the secrets I keep
You'd be amazed
At my mouth full of lies
But I'm too afraid to come clean
My life's the flame in a house of cards

It's such a shame what I've become
After years of breaking down
My whole life has come undone
Cuz I'm trying to fake it all
And I know that you love someone
But that someone isn't me
Or is this me
No

(inaudible)

And you'd be amazed
At the secrets I keep
You'd be amazed
At my mouth full of lies
But I'm too afraid to come clean
My life's the flame in a house of cards

You'd be amazed
You'd be amazed
