In this masquerade of fake ties confined with lost eyes so
Your small pride comprised of white lies from all the outside noise
You play games to try to maintain your name
I knew all along
You and me we’re just not the same up top’s where you’ll find me
We’ve come to find
The roads ahead
To break this shell
We’ll bring back hope in this
We’ll watch you fall
With your broken wings
To see the sights beneath the afterglow
And within these four walls I see this repeat
Of incompetent inadequency
You fall back in your circle of comfort
Your throne, your stage is now gone
Alone with no time so
I’m Barefoot on the concrete
Vision is weary (But) i’ll do it all with my own feet
Nothing you can provide would ever compete
Break the cycle, up top is where you’ll find me
We’ve come to find
The roads ahead
To break this shell
We’ll bring back hope in this
We’ll watch you fall
With your broken wings
To see the sights beneath the afterglow
You know you can’t compete
You know we’re out of reach
Break the cycle up top’s where you’ll find me
We’ve come to find
The roads ahead
To break this shell
We’ll bring back hope in this
We’ll watch you fall
With your broken wings
To see the sights beneath the afterglow

Artist Profile
The Cards I Play
The Cards I Play sonically embodies the emotions and circumstances surrounding passion. A canvas painted through stories of self-doubt within ambition, hope within anxiety, and love within despair expressed in a human yet poetic approach. The Cards I Play songs are minimal and catchy at first listen, yet have a transformative depth to discover within each line of melody, infused with multi genre influences to create an energetic and explosive experience. Working with Grammy nominated producer Tyler Smyth for mastering, and Christoph Wieczorek (Sawdust Recordings/Annisokay) for mixing, their debut album "Retrograde" promises to showcase the identity and progress of The Cards I Play through sonic brilliance. "Retrograde" landed 28th on the iTunes Japan Rock charts, and their first ever Japan tour final was a sold out show at Shibuya Cyclone.
