Tables are turning There's a storm closing in I say it's love, you say it's war On the horizon I see dark clouds linger on You look at me and say you wish me gone A poison trail to evermore Throw away the key and lock the door You wish that I would finally set you free But be careful what you wish for You might get it all and more And things would never be like they were before So be careful what you wish for It might just all come true And you realize it might not be for you I know I'm dying And there's a wolf at my door I wish for light, you give me none My final hour and the clock keeps ticking on With pleading eyes I'm looking up at you at you All the pain of wasted years Endless fights and bitter tears I feel the end of us has just begun But be careful what you wish for You might get it all and more And things would never be like they were before So be careful what you wish for It might just all come true And you realize it might not be for you So be careful what you wish for You might get it all and more And things would never be like they were before So be careful what you wish for It might just all come true And you realize it might not be for you
