House of Cards

Ian Tyson

[Verse 1]
Playin' in the card house
Turn to see his eyes
Stakes grow higher every day
Reachin' for the sky
And truth is where you find it
Some of the young ones try

[Chorus]
It burned my mind to see
All the young energy
Drain to the house of cards
Fed on by falcons

[Verse 2]
In the concrete deserts
That he brings forth the cards
Hast not died for something
You might just discard
Alone with your broken dreams
In your own backyard

[Chorus]
It burned my mind to see
All the young energy
Drain to the house of cards
Fed on by falcons

[Bridge]
La, la, la
La-la-la, la-la
La, la, la
La-la-la, la-la
La, la
La, la
La, la, la, la

[Verse 3]
Searchin' is accepted
The results are all accrued
But only when directed
From the falcon's muse
And far away the house of war
Alternatives just confuse

[Chorus]
It burned my mind to see
All the young energy
Drain to the house of cards
Fed on by falcons

[Verse 4]
Muddy rivers still flow on
And the crops still grow
Look into the eyes of youth
Tell me that you know
Even though we've lost our way
They'll find a way to go

[Chorus]
It burned my mind to see
All the young energy
Drain to the house of cards
Fed on by falcons

{Outro}
La, la, la
La-la-la, la-la
La, la, la
La-la-la, la-la
La, la
La, la
La, la, la, la
