Careful What You Wish For

Only in madness

Do you find beautiful death

And only in sadness

Do you feel happy instead

Be careful what you wish for

'Cause you don't know

The guilt I carried this far

All on my own

It's nothin' you wanna feel

Don't wait for the dust to settle

Don't wait till it's not enough

Don't wait for the world to let go

Of the both of us

Don't wait for the dust to settle

Don't wait till you've had enough

Don't wait for the world to let go

Or to give you up

The silence is one thing

That I'll remember you said

Well it's better than nothin'

When nothin's all that you left

Be careful what you wish for

'Cause you don't know

The guilt I carried this far

Wasn't my own

It's nothin' you wanna feel

So let it go

Don't wait for the dust to settle

Don't wait till it's not enough

Don't wait for the world to let go

Of the both of us

Don't wait for the dust to settle

Don't wait till you've had enough

Don't wait for the world to let go

Or to give you up

If you need a place to hang your head

A shoulder's better than a knot

You'd be a better memory

Alive rather than not

If you need a place to hang your head

A shoulder's better than a knot

You'd be a better memory

If no one else forgot

So let it go

Don't wait for the dust to settle

Don't wait till it's not enough

Don't wait for the world to let go

Of the both of us

Don't wait for the dust to settle

Don't wait till you've had enough

Don't wait for the world to let go

Or to give you up

(If you need a place to hang your head)

(A shoulder's better than a knot)

I'm not givin' up

(You'd be a better memory)

(Alive rather than not)

So don't you give up

(If you need a place to hang your head)

(A shoulder's better than a knot)

I'm not givin' up

(You'd be a better memory)

(If no one else forgot)

So don't you give up
