Perfect Nightmare - Shontelle

Sometimes we fight, sometimes I cry

Why don’t I just tell him goodbye

Sometimes I should, but sometimes I don’t

Build up the strength to say that it’s wrong

Sometimes I hate, sometimes I love

Sometimes I hurt, sometimes I don’t

Sometimes I wait for him to change

But it’s okay, I’ve disguised the pain

And I don’t ever wanna leave him alone

They say I’m brainwashed but I’m in love with this man, yeahh

Keep telling myself that it’s not worth it

I already know I don’t deserve it

But if it’s from you I don’t mind hurting

This is my perfect nightmare

So when will I wake up and scream

No way, no way, no way,

No way, no way, no way, no way

But if it’s from you I don’t mind hurting

This is my perfect nightmare, perfect nightmare

Sometimes I keep my cool, sometimes I let him know

Sometimes I even pack my bags to walk out the door

Sometimes I feel safe, sometimes I really don’t

Sometimes I promise that I’m ready to let him go

But I don’t ever wanna leave him alone

They say I’m brainwashed but I’m in love with this man, oh oooh

Keep telling myself that it’s not worth it

I already know I don’t deserve it

But if it’s from you I don’t mind hurting

This is my perfect nightmare

So when will I wake up and scream

No way, no way, no way,

No way, no way, no way, no way

But if it’s from you I don’t mind hurting

This is my perfect nightmare, perfect nightmare

Hoping he’s changing, but I’m scared he’s not

Can’t see a way to leave, help me open my eyes

Keep telling myself that it’s not worth it

I already know I don’t deserve it

But if it’s from you I don’t mind hurting

This is my perfect nightmare, perfect

Keep telling myself that it’s not worth it (no way)

I already know I don’t deserve it

But if it’s from you I don’t mind hurting (don't mind hurting)

This is my perfect nightmare

So when will I wake up and scream

No way, no way, no way,

No way, no way, no way, no way

But if it’s from you I don’t mind hurting

This is my perfect nightmare, perfect nightmare

No way, no way, no way,

No way, no way, no way, no way

But if it’s from you I don’t mind hurting

This is my perfect nightmare, perfect nightmare

Perfect nightmare.
