Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
You drag this ball and chain Across the desert plain You build a house of cards Around a loveless heart Wild country in your head Gone dead, river bed In the dust you cry, cry, cry There's no water in the skies Bone dry, built on sand A house of cards that will never stand The doors crash open and the flood comes in And the flood takes everything So speak the language slow Beg some foreign money You're growing up on dog food In the land of milk and honey Shoot for the moon Live a life out of a window In your room, all alone You watch the sky, watch the storm Coming down On your house of cards Drink another drink And I spill my stories But when I wake up I forget my stories Magnificent in failure Resplendent in decay Tall tales of the land and the sea And the tides That tore away my house of cards It's so hot, so hot in here I can't sleep with you so near And the time goes by so slow And the night peels away like gasoline Shoot for the moon Live a life out of a window In your room, all alone You watch the sky Watch the storm Coming down, coming down On your house of cards
