Be Careful What You Wish For Lyrics by Zebrahead

Phoenix

2008

This is me
I've got a nasty sense of humor and a case of high anxiety
If you please
I would rather be alone, and let the world around me judge me (judge me)
So I've got my life together, but it's half of what it should be (should be)
So you think you can make it better?
You'd better help me, help me
Hang on, but prepare
I can't live up to you
Hold on, Hold on
There's still a part of me that can't escape my insecurities
Hang on, this is me
Can't you see?
I've got a perfect explanation, but keep it deep inside of me
Pardon me
But if you really want to know
Well then you'd better learn to trust me (trust me)
So you've got your life together, but you say you gotta have more (have more)
So you think I could make it better?
Just be careful what you wish for
Hang on, but prepare
Can't live up to you
Hold on, Hold on
There's still a part of me that can't escape my insecurities
Hang on, this is me
Paint the perfect picture
But these pictures are deceiving
'Cause the colours lost their place
And they're dripping down and bleeding
And they're running and running away
Packed it up and leaving
And these dreams turn to nightmares
Like a promise with no meaning
So be careful what you wish for
You just might get it
And if this is what you live for
You might as well forget it
You don't know what you're in for
The small print, never read it
Be careful what you wish for
You just might get it, get it, get it
You just might get it, get it, get it
So hold tight
Hang on, but prepare
(Can't live up to you)
Hold on, Hold on
There's still a part of me that can't escape my insecurities
Hang on, This is me (be careful what you wish for)
Hang on, but prepare
Can't live up to you
Hold on, hold on (you just might get it)
There's still a part of me that can't escape my insecurities
Hang on, This is me (be careful what you wish for)
(Be careful what you wish for) this is me
(Be careful what you wish for) this is me
