Asking For It by Shinedown Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Can I have a moment of your time?
Just a single second so you see that indeed we’ll be leaving you behind Far across that line
Turn it up so you can hear the bells, crashing through the clouds as it rain down the drain
We know all too well, it’s a living hell

[Pre-Chorus]
Careful what you say and who you say and who you say it to
Careful what you say and who you say it to

[Chorus]
Maybe you talk too much and you were asking for it, asking for it, asking
You can blame bad luck but you were asking for it, asking for it, asking
When all is said and done, you need to tie your tongue
'Cause when you spit on everyone
You are, you are, you know you're asking for it, asking for it, asking

[Verse 2]
Caught up in the gutter once again
Crashing through the mud, throwing lies, cutting ties 'til the sidewalk ends
And the truth begins
Power through the point of no return
Famously deranged all the same, hope you change if the world is gonna turn
It’s none of my concern
[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus]

Oooh hoo hoo oooh hoo hoo oh
Oooh hoo hoo oooh hoo hoo oh

[Bridge]
You are, you are, you are, you are, you are, asking for it
You are, you are, you are, you are, you are, asking for it

[Chorus]

[Outro]
You know you’re asking for it, asking for it
You know you’re asking for it, asking!
