Lyrics
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 It burned my mind to see All the young energy Drain to the house of cards Fed on by falcons 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 It burned my mind to see All the young energy Drain to the house of cards Fed on by falcons La, la, la La-la-la, la-la La, la, la La-la-la, la-la La, la La, la La, la, la, la 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 It burned my mind to see All the young energy Drain to the house of cards Fed on by falcons 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 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
