Be Careful What You Wish For Songtext
von Memphis May Fire

Raise your glass to everything you′ve accomplished on your own!
I promise it won't mean a thing tomorrow!
We′re all just headed straight for the ocean floor! (The ocean floor)
On a ship without any captain aboard
This time you can't save yourself!

We're all just wasting time
Standing still waiting for something to happen (something to happen)
But I think we′d all be fine
If everyone would just shut up and listen!
Be slow to speak, shut up and listen!

We have no idea what we′re capable of!
If only, we would live in fear
Of knowing our own flesh and blood
Does not belong to us!
(We see everything a little different than before!)


Lose your pride!
We're all just wasting time
Standing still waiting for something to happen (something to happen)
But I think we′d all be fine
If everyone would just shut up and listen!
Be slow to speak, shut up and listen!

What you want, is never what you need!
It's never what you need!
Be careful what you wish for!
Lose your pride!
If it′s what you come back to!
Lose your pride!
Realize this was never about you, oh!

This time you can't save yourself!
We′re all just wasting time
Standing still waiting for something to happen (something to happen)

But I think we'd all be fine
If everyone would just shut up and listen
Be slow to speak, shut up and listen!
