It's late at night, the world's asleep,
and I'm trying not to think.
I take some pills 'cause 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'll be amazed at the secrets I keep.
You'll be amazed at my mouth full of lies.
Well, I'm too afraid to come clean
'cause my life's the flame in the house of cards.
Now I can't look you in your eyes
because the guilt is killing me.
I try to disconnect my heart again
just so I can breathe.
I wanna be myself again,
but I just can't 'cause
I'm afraid to be alone.
I'm afraid that one day you'll find out,
and you'll be amazed at the secrets I keep.
You'll be amazed at my mouth full of lies.
Well, I'm too afraid to come clean
'cause my life's the flame in the house of cards.
It's such a shame what I've become;
after years of breaking down
my whole life has come undone
'cause I'm trying to fake it all.
And I know that you love someone
but that someone isn't me, isn't me, no.
And you'll be amazed at the secrets I keep.
You'll be amazed at my mouth full of lies.
Well, I'm too afraid to come clean
'cause my life's the flame in the house of cards.
You'll be amazed.
You'll be amazed.
