"Careful What You Wish For" lyrics

"Careful What You Wish For"
(feat. Monique Powell)

Now you're fucking around with my head
Fucking around with my heart
There's something, always something
Telling me that I need more

A little more love, I wonder
If that would satisfy this hunger
Cause there's something, always something
Telling me that I need more

I wanted sex, I wanted drugs
I wanted sunshine
I wanted every day to always be a good time
I wanted fame
You say my name, I wanted girls
Getting what you want is the worst

Careful what you wish for
Careful what you wish for
It's never enough, you'll want more
Getting what you want is the worst

It used to be
The wanting it was the worst part
Now that I have what I want
My head keeps telling me that I could lose what I got

Where's the love, I wonder
I wonder if you got lost under
The needing and all that bleeding
The time I lost needing more

I wanted sex, I wanted drugs
I wanted sunshine
I wanted every day to always be a good time
I wanted fame
You say my name, I wanted girls
Getting what you want is the worst

Careful what you wish for
Careful what you wish for
It's never enough, you'll want more
Getting what you want is the worst

Careful what you wish for
Careful what you wish for
It's never enough, you'll want more
Getting what you want is the worst

Now you're fucking around with my head
Fucking around with my heart
There's something, always something
Telling me that I need more

Careful what you wish for
Careful what you wish for
It's never enough, you'll want more
Getting what you want is the worst

Careful what you wish for
Careful what you wish for
It's never enough, you'll want more
Getting what you want is the worst
