House of Cards
Shayne Orok Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The deeper we fall,
The fear I'm in.
So bad (Why)-
We, yeah
Though i try to cope,
And keep in control,
So hard (Hard)
And then we fall.

Even though i already know,
Somehow i can't let you go-
No way, no way, no way---
So we fall.
She got me but times come and go,
Keep trying but can't get ahead-
No way, no way-
Don't wanna break apart

Caught in a bond so weak,
A house of cards, are we.

Could she see the end of,
Our love and affection.

Caught in a bond so weak,
A house of cards, are we!

Two fools in the middle,
A dream or a riddle?-
Just stay .

(Music interval) + Mumbling

Yea-
Today is all it might be,
Tomorrow we may never see,
But i can't forget what you've done nor regret,
All the time that we've spent and what you mean to me.
But it's all for nothing (now),
We're in way over our heads,
No matter how i think about it,
But if I'm with you until the end, I'm okay.

Even though i already know,
Somehow i can't let you go-
No way, no way, no way---
So we fall.
She got me but times come and go,
Keep trying but can't get ahead-
No way, no way-
Don't wanna break apart

Caught in a bond so weak,
A house of cards, are we.

Could she see the end of,
Our love and affection.

Caught in a bond so weak,
A house of cards, are we!

Two fools in the middle,
A dream or a riddle?-

We've gotta--
Slow down.

Just give me more,
Don't walk out that door-
(high note)

Please baby!-
Calm down!!-

Just give me more!
(Highest note)

The deeper we fall,
The fear im in.
So bad (So bad)-
We, yeah,

Though i try to cope,
And keep in control.
So hard (So hard)
Don't wanna break apart-

Caught in a bond so weak,
A house of cards, are we.

Could she see the end of,
Our love and affection.

Caught in a bond so weak,
A house of cards, are we!

Two fools in the middle,
A dream or a riddle?

Just stay





(high notes and music fades out)

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Shayne Orok's "House of Cards" delves into the complexities of an unstable and fragile romantic relationship. The song begins with the singer recognizing the fear that comes with falling deeper into love. Despite being aware of the potential consequences of this bond, the fear doesn't prevent him from staying with the other person. He acknowledges that he can't let go of the person, even though he knows the relationship is bound to fall apart, and highlights the futility of trying to move on from it.


As the song progresses, Orok refers to their bond as "a house of cards" - fragile and easily breakable. He wonders if the other person is aware of the end that looms ahead of them. Amidst the turmoil of their emotions, Orok recognizes that they are essentially two fools who are uncertain if their relationship is worth fighting for or if it's simply a dream or a riddle that cannot be solved. The song ends with the singer asking the other person to calm down, give him more time, and to stay, hinting that he still hopes for a positive outcome despite the uncertainty.
