Love The Way You Lie
David Guetta; Eminem; Kelly Rowland; Rihanna Lyrics

Just gonna stand there and watch me burn
You're just going to stand there and watch me suffer the consequences of my actions.

But that's alright, because I like the way it hurts
It's alright that it hurts me because I enjoy the pain and the drama.

Just gonna stand there and hear me cry
You're just going to stand there and listen to me cry even though you caused me pain.

But that's alright, because I love the way you lie
It's alright that you lie to me because I love you too much to leave.

I love the way you lie
I love the way you deceive me even though it hurts me.

I can't tell you what it really is
I can't explain what's happening between us.

I can only tell you what it feels like
I can only describe how it feels when we're together.

And right now there's a steel knife, in my windpipe
I feel like I'm being suffocated by the intensity of our relationship.

I can't breathe, but I still fight, while I can fight
I feel trapped in this relationship but I'm still trying to make it work.

As long as the wrong feels right, it's like I'm in flight
Even though I know this isn't healthy, I feel like I'm flying when I'm with you.

High off of love drunk from my hate
I'm addicted to the feelings our relationship brings and can't stop, even though it's toxic.

It's like I'm huffing paint and I love it the more that I suffer
Our relationship is addictive like huffing paint and I can't get enough even though it hurts me.

I suffocate and right before I'm about to drown
I feel like I'm suffocating in our relationship and about to break down.

She resuscitates me, she fucking hates me,
You bring me back to life after hurting me, which makes me feel confused and frustrated.

And I love it, wait
I love the drama and intensity of our relationship, even though it's unhealthy.

Where you going, I'm leaving you
I'm trying to leave this toxic relationship.

No you ain't, come back
You won't let me go and are trying to convince me to stay in the relationship.

We're running right back, here we go again
We keep repeating the same patterns in our relationship and ending up back together.

It's so insane 'cause when it's going good, it's going great
Our relationship is crazy because when it's good, it's amazing, but when it's bad, it's terrible.

I'm Superman, with the wind at his back, she's Lois Lane
I feel like a superhero when our relationship is good, and you are my love interest.

But when it's bad, it's awful
Our relationship is terrible when things aren't going well.

I feel so ashamed, I snapped, who's that dude
I feel guilty for losing my temper and don't even recognize myself when I act out.

I don't even know his name, I laid hands on her
I don't even know who I hurt in my rage.

I'll never stoop so low again, I guess I don't know my own strength
I promise to never hurt you again, but I don't know if I can keep that promise.

You ever love somebody so much
Have you ever loved someone so much that it consumes you?

You can barely breathe, when you're with them, you meet
Being with them takes your breath away and you feel like you've found your other half.

And neither one of you, even know what hit 'em,
You both fell in love so quickly that you didn't see it coming.

Got that warm fuzzy feeling, yeah them chills, used to get 'em
You used to feel so happy and comfortable around them, but now things have changed.

Now you're getting fucking sick, of looking at 'em
You're starting to feel annoyed and frustrated by their presence.

You swore you've never hit 'em, never do nothing to hurt 'em,
You promised yourself that you would never hurt them, but now things have changed and you're consumed by rage.

Now you're in each others face,
You're constantly arguing and fighting with each other.

Spewing venom, and these words, when you spit 'em
You're saying hurtful things to each other that you can't take back.

You push, pull each other's hair, scratch, claw, bit 'em,
You're physically fighting each other and hurting one another.

Throw 'em down, pin 'em, so lost in the moments, when you're in 'em
You get so caught up in the intensity of the moment that you lose control of your actions.

It's the rage that's the culprit, it controls you both
Your anger and rage are the root cause of your problems and are controlling your actions and emotions.

So they say it's best, to go your separate ways,
People are advising you to end the relationship for the sake of your own wellbeing.

Guess that they don't know ya 'cause today, that was yesterday
People don't truly understand the complexities of your relationship and how hard it is to let go.

Yesterday is over, it's a different day
The past is behind you and it's time to move on and make a change.

Sound like broken records, playin' over, but you promised her
You keep repeating the same mistakes and hurting each other even though you promised not to.

Next time you'll show restraint
You'll try to control your emotions and not let them get the best of you next time.

You don't get another chance,
You may not get another chance to fix things and make it work.

Life is no Nintendo game, but you lied again
Life is not easy and you keep making the same mistakes and lying to yourself and others.

Now you get to watch her leave,
You have to watch the one you love leave because of your own mistakes.

Out the window, guess that's why they call it window pane
You watch them leave through the window and realize that the window pane is all that's left of your relationship.

Now I know we said things, did things
We made mistakes and hurt each other in the past.

That we didn't mean and we fall back into the same patterns
We didn't mean to hurt each other and now we're falling back into the same destructive patterns.

Same routine, but your temper's just as bad, as mine is
We keep repeating the same routine, but we both have bad tempers that often get in the way.

You're the same as me, but when it comes to love, you're just as blinded
We're both the same in many ways, but we're both blind when it comes to our love for each other.

Baby please come back, it wasn't you,
I want you to come back because I know it was my fault and I want to make it right.

Baby it was me, maybe our relationship isn't as crazy as it seems
I admit that I was wrong and maybe our relationship isn't as crazy as it seems.

Maybe that's what happens When a tornado meets a volcano
Our relationship is like a natural disaster where two opposing forces collide and create a destructive force.

All I know is I love you too much, to walk away now
Despite everything that's happened, I still love you too much to let go.

Come inside, pick up your bags off the sidewalk
Come back inside and pick up your things from the sidewalk.

Don't you hear sincerity, in my voice when I talk,
Can't you hear how sincere I am in my apology and in wanting to make things right?

Told you this is my fault, look me in the eyeball
I take full responsibility for what happened and I'm owning up to my mistakes.

Next time I'm pissed, I'll aim my fist at the dry wall
The next time I'm angry, I'll direct my emotions towards something other than hurting you.

Next time, there will be no next time
I'm making a promise that I won't make the same mistakes again.

I apologize even though I know it's lies
I apologize even though I know I may not be able to keep my promise to change.

I'm tired of the games, I just want her back, I know I'm a liar
I'm tired of the games and I just want you back, even though I know I'm a liar and have made mistakes.

If she ever tries to fucking leave again
If you ever try to leave me again,

I'm a tie her to the bed and set this house on fire
I'll do whatever it takes to keep you from leaving, even if it means hurting you or destroying our home.

Just gonna stand there and watch me burn
You're just going to stand there and watch me self-destruct.

But that's alright, because I like the way it hurts
It's alright that it hurts me because I enjoy the pain and the drama, even though it's not healthy.

Just gonna stand there and hear me cry
You're just going to stand there and listen to me cry even though you caused me pain.

But that's alright, because I love the way you lie
It's alright that you lie to me because I love you too much to leave and can't handle the truth.

I love the way you lie
I love the deception and intensity of our relationship even though it's not healthy.
