I Only Lie When I Love You
Royal Blood Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I only crawl when I hit the ground
You only cry when I love you
I only lie when I make a sound
Go ahead, muck about
I got my conscience twisted
Pull your hair, make me shout
Like you were onto something
I only lie when I love you
I only crawl when I hit the ground
You only cry when I love you
I only lie when I make a sound
I only lie when I
I only lie when I
I only lie when I
I only lie when I
I only lie when I love you
I only crawl when I hit the ground
You only cry when I love you
I only lie when I make a sound
Go ahead, pull the plug
Broken finger, sticky trigger
Now I can't get it off my chest
And now I'm wishing you were someone else
You know I'm up to something
Diagnosed, no disease
Got a suspicion but you just can't find it up your sleeve
And now I beg the truth be told from someone else
All of that fuss for nothing
I only lie when I love you
I only crawl when I hit the ground
You only cry when I love you
I only lie when I make a sound
I only lie when I
I only lie when I
I only lie when I
I only lie when I
I only lie when I love you
I only crawl when I hit the ground
You only cry when I love you
I only lie when I make a sound
Uh
Uh
The lyrics of "I Only Lie When I Love You" by Royal Blood are a paradoxical expression of love and deception. The repetition of "I only lie when I love you" highlights the idea that to love someone deeply means you may also deceive them. The song suggests that this is not necessarily a malicious or intentional act but rather an unfortunate byproduct of being human and fallible. The lyrics also suggest that the other person in the relationship plays a part in this dynamic by crying when they are loved, and that the singer only crawls when they hit the ground, highlighting the idea of being vulnerable and submissive in love.
The chorus of the song expresses a struggle with honesty as it is only when the singer makes a sound that they lie. This can be interpreted as them being unable to hide their true feelings or intentions, even if it results in deception. The verses describe a relationship dynamic where both parties play a role in the deception and the singer feels frustrated and almost helpless in their inability to be truthful. The bridge of the song continues this theme, expressing a desire for the truth to come from someone else, perhaps to relieve the guilt and imbalanced nature of the relationship.

lyrics
Royal Blood - Eu Só Minto Quando Eu Te Amo
Eu só minto quando eu te amo
Eu só rastejo quando eu caio no chão
Você só chora quando eu te amo
Eu só minto quando eu emito um som
Vá em frente, fale tudo
Tive a consciência virada
Puxe seu cabelo
Me faça gritar
É só que você insistiu que eu não era bom pra nada
Como se você estivesse em algo
Eu só minto quando eu te amo
Eu só rastejo quando eu caio no chão
Você só chora quando eu te amo
Eu só minto quando eu emito um som
Eu só minto quando eu
Eu só minto quando eu
Eu só minto quando eu
Eu só gosto quando eu
Eu só minto quando eu te amo
Eu só rastejo quando eu caio no chão
Você só chora quando eu te amo
Eu só minto quando eu emito um som
Vá em frente, puxe o plugue
Dedo quebrado, gatilho pegajoso
Agora eu não consigo tirar do meu peito
E agora eu estou desejando que você fosse outra pessoa
Você sabe que eu estou tramando algo
Diagnosticado, sem doença
Teve uma suspeita
Mas você não consegue encontrar na sua manga
E agora eu imploro pra que a verdade seja dita
Por outra pessoa
Todo esse alvoroço por nada
Eu só minto quando eu te amo
Eu só rastejo quando eu caio no chão
Você só chora quando eu te amo
Eu só minto quando eu emito um som
Eu só minto quando eu
Eu só minto quando eu
Eu só minto quando eu
Eu só minto quando eu
Eu só minto quando eu te amo
Eu só rastejo quando eu caio no chão
Você só chora quando eu te amo
Eu só minto quando eu emito um som

In my opinion, this is the definitive Royal Blood song. Heavy like the first album but with the danceable beats of the upcoming album. This captures RB right in the middle of that transition
