Be Careful What You Wish For Lyrics - Phoenix - Zebrahead

This is me 

I've got a nasty sense of humour and a case of high anxiety 

If you please 

I would rather be alone, than have the world around you judge me 

So I've got my life together, but it's half of what it 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 

So you've got your life together, but you say you gotta 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 

Photos 

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 wish for 

The small print, never end 

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
