(N. Giraldo, M. Grombacher) Anger shakes the house of cards, loving cup upon the bars We bend the truth to help us through the night Tempers thrown against the wall, shatter like an empty glass Nothin' can save us from our own selves tonight Chorus: Anger is a mighty sword, vengeance is our own reward Love goes blind one eye at a time, gonna cut away from the ties that bind Hey, hey There's an edge within my voice, helps me win when I should lose We pick and choose our weapons carefully Words are twisted like a fist, behind our backs no slight-of-hand No battle ever ended with a kiss (chorus) (Solo) Anger shakes the house of cards, loving cup upon the bars We bend the truth to help us through the night (chorus)
