Be Careful What You Wish For Lyrics by Written by Wolves

Secrets

2019

[Intro]
(Be careful what you wish for)
[Verse 1]
Feels like a cyclone closing in on me
Floats like a butterfly, stings like a goddamn bee
Who am I if I don't have this dream?
Wasn't a lie when they said that they don't come free
So, do I have to choose?
Tell me what would you do if you were in my shoes
Every single breakthrough feels like it's lose, lose
I don't have a damn clue, tell me what would you do?
[Pre Chorus]
Never meet your heroes
Never fully close an open door
Beware of all the scarecrows
Be careful what you wish for
[Chorus]
What's wrong with wanting to have it all
I've come too far to watch this fall
This is not how it was meant to feel
Nothing worse than a dream that becomes real
I want it all
But there's a price I can't ignore
I want it all
Be careful what you wish for
[Verse 2]
Do or die, but it shouldn't have to be
There was a time when I don't think I would agree
But the light bulb hanging over me
Gave me a sign like a goddamn epiphany
So, what am I to do
Fall down on my sword, waiting to be rescued
Or I could be grateful for the heaven they've moved
Making sure I don't lose, tryna make it come true
[Pre Chorus]
Never meet your heroes
Never fully close an open door
Beware of all the scarecrows
Be careful what you wish for
[Chorus]
What's wrong with wanting to have it all
I've come too far to watch this fall
This is not how it was meant to feel
Nothing worse than a dream that becomes real
I want it all
But there's a price can't ignore
I want it all
Be careful what you wish for
[Pre Chorus]
Never meet your heroes
Never fully close an open door
Beware of all the scarecrows
Be careful what you wish for
[Chorus]
What's wrong with wanting to have it all
I've come too far to watch this fall
This is not how it was meant to feel
Nothing worse than a dream that becomes real
I want it all
But there's a price I can't ignore
I want it all
Be careful what you wish for
[Outro]
Never meet your heroes
Never fully close an open door
Beware of all the scarecrows
Be careful what you wish for
