Intro
Just gonna stand there and watch
me burn,
But that's alright because I
like the way it hurts.
Just gonna stand there and hear
me cry,
But that's alright because I
love the way you lie,
(slide on D string)
I love the way you lie
Verse
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
Cuz when it's going good, it's going great
I'm Superman with the wind at
his back, she's Lois Lane
But when and 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'll never
stoop so low again
I guess I don't know my own
strength
Chorus
Just gonna stand there and watch
me burn,
But that's alright because I
like the way it hurts.
Just gonna stand there and hear
me cry,
But that's alright because I
love the way you lie,
I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie
Verse 2
You ever love somebody so much,
you can barely breathe when
you're with 'em?
You meet, and neither one of you
even know what 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 nothin' to hurt 'em
Now you're in each other's face
spewing 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 face that's the
culprit, it controls you both
So they say, you'd best to go
your separate ways
Guess that they don't know ya
cuz today, that was yesterday,
Yesterday is over and 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"
Chorus
Just gonna stand there and watch
me burn,
But that's alright because I
like the way it hurts.
Just gonna stand there and hear
me cry,
But that's alright because I
love the way you lie,
I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie
Verse 3
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
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,
Ima tie her to the bed and set this house on fire
Just gonna
Chorus
Stand there and watch me burn,
But that's alright because I
like the way it hurts.
Just gonna stand there and hear
me cry,
But that's alright because I
love the way you lie,
I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie
