Love The Way You Lie

Just gonna stand there and watch me burn?

Well, that's all right because I like the way it hurts

Just gonna stand there and hear me cry?

Well, that's all right because I love the way you lie

I love the way you lie

I can't tell you what it really is

I can only tell you what it feels like

And right now, there's a steel knife in my windpipe

I can't breath, but I still fight while I can fight

As long as the wrong feels right, it's like I'm in flight

High off her love, drunk from her hate

It's like I'm huffin' paint and I love her

The more I suffer, I suffocate

And right before I'm about to drown, she resuscitates me

She fuckin' hates me, and I love it —  "Wait!

Where you going?" —  "I'm leaving you!" — 

"No, you ain't! Come back!" — 

We're runnin' right back, here we go again

It's so insane, 'cause when it's goin' good, it's goin' great

I'm Superman with the wind at his back, she's Lois Lane

But when it's bad, it's awful, I feel so ashamed

I snapped, "Who's that dude?", I don't even know his name

I laid hands on her, I'll never stoop so low again

I guess I don't know my own strength

Just gonna stand there and watch me burn?

Well, that's all right because I like the way it hurts

Just gonna stand there and hear me cry?

Well, that's all right because I love the way you lie

I love the way you lie

I love the way you lie

You ever love somebody so much

You can barely breath when you're with 'em?

You meet, and neither one of you even know what hit 'em

Got that warm fuzzy feelin', yeah, them chills, used to get 'em

Now you're gettin' fuckin' sick of lookin' at 'em?

You swore you'd never hit 'em, never do nothin' to hurt 'em

Now your'e in each other's face

Spewin' venom in your words when you spit 'em

You push, pull each other's hair, scratch, claw, bit 'em

Throw 'em down, pin 'em so lost in the moments when you're in 'em

It's the rage that took over it, controls you both

So they say you're best to go, your separate ways

Guess that they don't know ya

'Cause today, that was yesterday, yesterday is over

It's a different day, sound like broken records playin' over

But you promised her, next time you'll show restraint

You don't get another chance, life is no Nintendo game but you lied again

Now you get to watch her leave out the window

Guess that's why they call it window pane

Just gonna stand there and watch me burn?

Well, that's all right because I like the way it hurts

Just gonna stand there and hear me cry?

Well, that's all right because I love the way you lie

I love the way you lie

I love the way you lie

Now, I know we said things, did things that we didn't mean

Then we fall back into the same patterns, same routine

But you temper's just as bad as mine is, you're the same as me

When it comes to love you're just as blinded, baby, please

Come back, it wasn't you, baby, it was me

Maybe our relationship isn't as crazy as it seems

Maybe that's what happens when a tornado meets a volcano

All I know is I love you too much to walk away though

Come inside, pick up your bags off the sidewalk

Don't you hear sincerity in my voice when I talk?

Told you this is my fault, look me in the eyeball

Next time I'm pissed, I'll aim my fist at the drywall

Next time? There won't be no next time!

I apologize, even though I know it's lies

I'm tired of the games, I just want her back, I know I'm a liar

If she ever tries to fuckin' leave again

I'ma tie her to the bad and set this house on fire

Just gonna stand there and watch me burn?

Well, that's all right because I like the way it hurts

Just gonna stand there and hear me cry?

Well, that's all right because I love the way you lie

I love the way you lie

I love the way you lie
