Love The Way You Lie Lyrics - American Idol

Just gonna stand there and watch me burn 

Well that's alright because I like the way it hurts 

Just gonna stand there and hear me cry 

Well, that's alright 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 breathe but I still fight while I can fight 

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

High off of love, drunk from my hate 

It's like I'm huffin' paint and I love it, 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 running right back, here we go again 

It's so insane, 'cause when it's going good, it's going 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 snap, "Who's that dude?", I don't even know his name 

I laid hands on her, I 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 alright because I like the way it hurts 

Just gonna stand there and hear me cry 

Well, that's alright 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 could barely breathe when you with 'em? 

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

Got that warm fuzzy feeling, 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 nothing to hurt 'em 

Now you're in each others face spewing venom in your words when you spit 'em 

You push, pull each others hair, scratch, claw, bit 'em 

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

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

So they say you'd 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 playing over 

But you promised her, next time you'd 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 alright because I like the way it hurts 

Just gonna stand there and hear me cry 

Well that's alright 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 

And we fall back into the same patterns, same routine 

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

But 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 bed 

And set this house on fire 

Just gonna stand there and watch me burn 

Well that's alright because I like the way it hurts 

Just gonna stand there and hear me cry 

Well that's alright because I love the way you lie 

I love the way you lie 

I love the way you lie
