Love The Way You Lie
Rihhana ft. Eminem Lyrics

Just gonna stand there and watch me burn?
Is it okay if you watch me suffer?

Well, that's alright, because I like the way it hurts
I enjoy pain because it makes me feel alive

Just gonna stand there and hear me cry?
Are you going to let me cry?

Well, that's alright, because I love the way you lie
I love it when you deceive me

I love the way you lie
I love the way you manipulate me

I can't tell you what it really is
I can't explain my emotions accurately

I can only tell you what it feels like
I can describe how it physically feels

And right now, there's a steel knife in my windpipe
I'm suffocating and in pain

I can't breathe, but I still fight while I can fight
I'm struggling but trying to survive

As long as the wrong feels right, it's like I'm in flight
Even if it's not the right thing to do, it feels good

High off of love, drunk from her hate
I'm addicted to love and the pain that comes with it

It's like I'm huffing paint and I love her, the more I suffer
Being with her is like inhaling paint, but I can't get enough

I suffocate and right before I'm about to drown
I'm struggling and about to give up

She resuscitates me, she fucking hates me
She helps me but also hates me

And I love it, "Wait
I love the attention and drama

Where you going?" "I'm leaving you"
Are you leaving me?

"No you ain't, come back"
You can't leave me yet

We're running right back, here we go again
We keep repeating the same mistakes

It's so insane 'cause when it's going good, it's going great
Our relationship is crazy because it's either amazing or terrible

I'm Superman, with the wind at his back, she's Lois Lane
I feel powerful when I'm with her

But when it's bad, it's awful
Our fights are intense and terrible

I feel so ashamed, I snapped, "Who's that dude?"
I'm ashamed because I got jealous and violent

I don't even know his name, I laid hands on her
I hurt her physically

I'll never stoop so low again, I guess I don't know my own strength
I didn't realize how much I hurt her

You ever love somebody so much you can barely breathe when you're with 'em?
Have you ever been so in love it's overwhelming?

You meet, and neither one of you, even know what hit 'em
You fell in love without realizing it

Got that warm fuzzy feeling, yeah, them chills, used to get 'em
You used to get excited and happy around them

Now you're getting fucking sick of looking at 'em
Now you're tired of them

You swore you've never hit 'em, never do nothing to hurt 'em
You promised you wouldn't hurt them

Now you're in each other's face
Now you're constantly fighting

Spewing venom in your words when you spit 'em
Your words are hurtful and toxic

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

Throw 'em down, pin 'em, so lost in the moments when you're in 'em
You're so caught up in the moment you forget everything else

It's the rage that took over, it controls you both
Anger is controlling your actions and relationship

So they say you're best to go your separate ways
They think you should break up

Guess that they don't know ya 'cause today, that was yesterday
They don't understand your relationship

Yesterday is over, it's a different day
We should start fresh today

Sound like broken records playin' over
We keep repeating the same mistakes

But you promised her, next time you'll show restraint
You promised not to hurt her again

You don't get another chance, life is no Nintendo game
You might not get another chance to fix things

But you lied again
You broke your promise once again

Now you get to watch her leave out the window
Now she's leaving you

Guess that's why they call it window pane
This is why they call it window pane

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

Then we fall back into the same patterns
We keep making the same mistakes

Same routine, but your temper's just as bad as mine is
We have the same temper issues

You're the same as me, when it comes to love, you're just as blinded
We both can't see past our love for each other

Baby, please come back, it wasn't you
Please come back, I know it was my fault

Baby, it was me, maybe our relationship isn't as crazy as it seems
It was my fault, maybe our relationship isn't that crazy

Maybe that's what happens when a tornado meets a volcano
Maybe our intense love creates chaos

All I know is I love you too much to walk away though
I can't leave you despite everything

Come inside, pick up your bags off the sidewalk
Come back inside and let's talk it out

Don't you hear sincerity in my voice when I talk?
Can't you tell I'm being sincere?

Told you this is my fault, look me in the eyeball
I'm taking responsibility, look at me

Next time I'm pissed, I'll aim my fist at the drywall
I won't take my anger out on you anymore

Next time? There won't be no next time
I won't mess up again

I apologize, even though I know it's lies
I'm sorry, even if you don't believe me

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

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

I'm a tie her to the bed and set this house on fire
I'll do something extreme to keep you here
