House Of Cards
Tyler Shaw Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
My mind was filled with doubt
I long to feel alive
Don't know if I'll survive
yea But my hope was running low
You appeared out of nowhere
It was more than an illusion
More than I can ever know
Baby it's magic the way you came around (yea )
You come in before I hit the ground (yea )
If something was missing in the house of cards
And all I needed was he queen of my hearts
It's Magic the way you came around
You didn't make a sound
My heart was screaming out
A trick under your sleeve
Ya you make me believe (yea )
But my hope was running low
You appeared out of nowhere
It was more than an illusion
More than I can ever know
Baby it's magic the way you came around
You come in before I hit the ground
If something was missing in the house of cards
And all I needed was he queen of my hearts
It's Magic the way you came around (yea )
It's Magic the way you came around
Baby it's magic the way you came around
You come in before I hit the ground
If something was missing in the house of cards
And all I needed was the queen of my hearts
It's Magic the way you came around (yea )
It's Magic the way you came around (yea )
The lyrics of Tyler Shaw's "House of Cards" depict a sense of hopelessness and uncertainty that come with the end of a relationship. The singer's "fire" burns out and their mind is filled with doubt, leading them to feel as if they might not survive. They long to feel alive again, but their hope is running low. However, just when they think they might hit the ground, the "queen of [their] hearts" comes around, seemingly out of nowhere.
The lyrics suggest that the appearance of this new person is nothing short of magical. They make the singer believe in love again and give them hope for the future. The metaphor of a "house of cards" implies that the singer's life was fragile and unstable before the arrival of this new love interest. The new relationship has provided them with much-needed support and stability.
Overall, "House of Cards" is a song about the transformative power of love. It shows how someone's life can change in an instant with the arrival of a new person, and how that person can provide a sense of hope and stability in even the most uncertain times.

This song is so helpful with my depression man. I actually first heard it on Lost and Found Music Studios. You and...I don't know her name so I'll use the one she had on the show...U and Rachel sang it. I loved it. Ayo but Jude was all like "Tayler Shay". That was hilarious 😂
