Hiding away in your paper walls
You’re unaware but one day you’ll fall

Don’t act surprised, when you open your eyes
Huffing and puffing with your last breath
You blew till you were through and there was nothing left

You reached for the sky with no where to land
You built it too high and played your last hand
Your big deal almost dealt yourself out
Playing in your house of cards

Once in a while you get to reflect
How your great fall almost broke your neck

But you never cared, you weren’t even scared
You pulled your hand and played again like it’s a game
But don’t you know that in the end its all the same

You reach for the sky with no where to land
You build it too high and you play your last hand
You big deal won’t you deal yourself out
Playing in your house of cards
