House of Cards Lyrics

People like us have our eyes on the stars
And we keep informed via TV guide
And we entertain in a house of cards
But the trouble remains in our sleeping heartsWake up! Wake up!
(Wake up!)
(Get out, out of this house of cards)
Get out, out of this house of cards, yeah
Why are we sleeping?Wake up! Wake up!
(Wake up)
(Get out, out of this house of cards)
Get, get out of this house of cards
Why are we dreaming?Why are we blinded
Always the little guys?
Why do we find ourselves
Always compromised?Wake up! Wake up!
(Wake up!)
(Get out, out of this house of cards, yeah, yeah)
Get out, this is a house of cards

Why are we sleeping?People like us
Have lives made of dust
And we know too little
But we know too muchAnd our puzzled lives have
Come all apart
So we go back to bed
With our sleeping heartsAnd we stay asleep
In a house of cards
(In a house of cards)
And we stay asleep
(In a house of cards)
In a house of cards
(In a house of cards)
