lyrics

Do you feel it underneath your skin at night?
Are you wondering what you’ll find within your mind?
Careful what you wish for, ‘cause you just might get it.
Practice what you preach, or live to regret it.
Cause every day of my life might seem like a new adventure,
But you don’t know what’s inside (hey), or how hard it is to tame the monster (be careful what)
You know you can’t fight it, so don’t even try (you wish for, hey),
The weight of the world will bury you alive (be careful what),
And now you got me thinkin’, I guess you’re right (you wish for),
It doesn’t even matter if you’re already dead inside (oh yeah).
Careful what you wish for, ‘cause you just might get it.
Practice what you preach, or live to regret it.
‘Cause every day of my life might seem like a new adventure,
But you don’t know what’s inside or how hard it is to tame the monster.
Never figured out how this all worked,
But I’m finding now, it never mattered to begin with.
I’m always the first and last,
But I’m not gonna fall back.
I’m finding now, it never mattered to begin with.
I can feel it creepin’ underneath my bones,
And I’m just wondering when the hell it’s gonna leave me alone or not.
Careful what you wish for, ‘cause you just might get it.
Practice what you preach, or live to regret it.
‘Cause every day of my life might seem like a new adventure,
But you don’t know what’s inside or how hard it is to tame the monster.
You know you can’t fight it, so don’t even try,
The weight of the world will bury you alive,
And now you got me thinkin’, I guess you’re right,
It doesn’t even matter if you’re already dead inside (oh yeah, already dead inside).
Never figured out how this all worked,
But I’m finding now it never mattered to begin with.
I’m always the first and last,
But I’m not gonna fall back.
I’m finding now it never mattered to begin with.
