I DON'T BELIEVE IN WISHING WELLS
AND I DON'T CARE HOW MUCH IT SELLS
SO MUCH OF IT IS COUNTERFEIT
SHRUNK TO MAKE SURE THAT IT FITS

I STILL BELIEVE IN INTEGRITY
THAT WHAT YOU GET SHOULD BE WHAT YOU SEE
THAT SOMEWHERE THERE'S A BROKEN HEART
DYING TO MAKE STARVING ART

THEY BUILT ME LIKE A HOUSE OF CARDS
WHEN THE ROAD GETS QUEASY, YOU'RE GONNA FALL SO HARD
I KNOW IT'S NOT EASY, BEING WHO YOU ARE
I KNOW THEY BUILT YOU LIKE A HOUSE OF CARDS

MY MOOD'S TAKING A SOUTHERN DIP
IT FEELS LIKE A FAMILIAR TRIP
DISTRACT MYSELF WITH MY GUITAR
OR NURSE MYSELF OUT AT THE BARS

IT'S A LOVE AFFAIR OF FLAME AND ICE
THIS WAY TO THE WHITE HOT SPOTLIGHT
WHERE MYSTERIES WILL SOLVE THEMSELVES
AND MYTHS COME TRUE FOR SOMEONE ELSE

THEY BUILT ME LIKE A HOUSE OF CARDS
WHEN THE ROAD GETS QUEASY, YOU'RE GONNA FALL SO HARD
I KNOW IT'S NOT EASY, BEING WHO YOU ARE
I KNOW THEY BUILT YOU LIKE A HOUSE OF CARDS

THESE SECRETS YOU CAN NEVER GIVE AWAY
THEY COLOR EVERYTHING YOU DO AND SAY

I DON'T BELIEVE IN WISHING WELLS
AND I DON'T CARE HOW MUCH IT SELLS
SO MUCH OF IT IS COUNTERFEIT
SHRUNK TO MAKE SURE THAT IT FITS

I STILL BELIEVE IN INTEGRITY
THAT WHAT YOU GET SHOULD BE WHAT YOU SEE
THAT SOMEWHERE THERE'S A BROKEN HEART
DYING TO MAKE STARVING ART

THEY BUILT ME LIKE A HOUSE OF CARDS
WHEN THE ROAD GETS QUEASY, YOU'RE GONNA FALL SO HARD
I KNOW IT'S NOT EASY, BEING WHO YOU ARE
I KNOW THEY BUILT YOU LIKE A HOUSE OF CARDS
