Lyrics Live This Nightmare - The Griswolds

Live This Nightmare

You do what you want,
You do what you need,
Just don’t let this get back to me.
You do what you want,
You do as you please,
Do whatever will help you sleep.
She called me up at the break of dawn.
She said that she’s going to be okay.
She called as if there was nothing wrong.
Okay, okay, okay.
I won’t lie to keep you here,
I could never be that cold my dear.
'Cause I can’t live this nightmare,
And I won’t live this nightmare.
I won’t lie.
I do what I want,
I do what I need,
I do whatever will help me sleep.
She called me up in the early morn.
She asked if we were going to be okay.
I won’t lie to keep you here,
I could never be that cold my dear.
'Cause I can’t live this nightmare,
And I won’t live this nightmare.
I can’t lie to keep you here
I could never be that cold my dear.
'Cause I can’t live this nightmare,
And I won’t live this nightmare.
You do what you want,
You do what you need.
Just don’t let this get back to me.
You do what you want,
You do as you please,
Do whatever will help you sleep.
Carrie, Carrie, Carrie
I can’t live ordinary.
I can’t just keep you holding on.
Carrie, my contrary,
I know you’re feeling buried,
So how’s your garden going to grow?
I won’t lie to keep you here
I could never be that cold my dear.
'Cause I can’t live this nightmare,
And I won’t live this nightmare.
If you cry for me my dear,
Drowning in a pool of wasted tears,
'Cause I can’t live this nightmare,
And I won’t live this nightmare.
I won’t lie.
