Cards Are Down Lyrics by The Blue Stones

Pretty Monster

2022

[Verse 1]
I hear you talkin' in a language I don't know
It's strange and heavy with a meaning of its own
You make it sound like you're a one-of-a-kind
And I get the feeling that I'm falling behind
[Pre-Chorus]
Move a little closer
Move a little closer now
All my cards are down
[Chorus]
I can feel the pressure, keep myself together
Pushin' through the pain while I'm in it
'Cause I came here to win it, oh!
Praying, hoping I don't break when
I can see the lights at the finish
'Cause I came here to win it, oh!
[Verse 2]
Will I be measured by the choices that I make
The clock is ticking getting hard to see it straight
Do I just call the blind and leave it behind?
And is that just what it takes?
[Chorus]
I can feel the pressure, keep myself together
Pushin' through the pain while I'm in it
'Cause I came here to win it, oh!
Praying, hoping I don't break when
I can see the lights at the finish
'Cause I came here to win it, oh!
[Bridge]
Move a little closer, move a little closer now
All my cards are down and I should take my final bow
Move a little closer, move a little closer now
All my cards are down
[Chorus]
I can feel the pressure, keep myself together
Pushin' through the pain while I'm in it
'Cause I came here to win it, oh!
Praying, hoping I don't break when
I can see the lights at the finish
'Cause I came here to win it, oh!
