House of Cards
Love's Fragility: Unveiling the Metaphor in Mick Clarke's 'House of Cards'
Lyrics
Blues fallin down like a thunder storm
Blues descending heavily and intensely like a thunderstorm
Fall from the heaven above
Falling from a divine or celestial source
Rainin down on your happy home
Symbolizing troubles or sorrow raining down on a contented or joyous household
Rain on the one you love
Adversity affecting the person or people you care for deeply
Maybe right to your neighbourhood
Possibly impacting your immediate surroundings
Comin' down from afar
Descending from a distant place
To bring your love all tumblin down
Causing the collapse of love or affection abruptly and completely
Like a house of cards
Comparing the downfall of love to a fragile structure like a house of cards
Maybe right in your family
Possibly affecting relationships within one's family
Closer than the beat of your heart
Closer than the very rhythm of your heart
One word best left unsaid
A single unspoken word leading to separation or discord
Drivin' you apart
Causing emotional distance or estrangement
Mmm mmm mm
Expressing a hum or melody signifying anguish or lamentation
No matter who you are
Regardless of one's identity or status
When your love come crashin' down
When your affection or love collapses dramatically
Like a house of cards
Similar to the sudden and fragile collapse of a house of cards
Mm mm mm
Mm mm mm
-Dont let your love come crashing down
Advice against allowing love to crumble abruptly and entirely
Like a house of cards
Emphasizing the fragile and sudden nature of love's collapse
