"Love The Way
You Lie"
(feat. Rihanna)
[Intro - Rihanna:]
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
[Verse - Eminem:]
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 her love,
drunk from her hate,
It's like I'm huffing
paint and I love her the more I suffer, I suffocate
And right before I'm
about to drown, she resuscitates me
She fucking 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 snapped
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 - Rihanna:]
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 - Eminem:]
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 you
used to get 'em
Now you're getting
fucking sick of looking at 'em
You swore you'd never
hit 'em; never do nothing to hurt 'em
Now you're in each
other's face spewing venom in your words when you spit them
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 them
It's the rage that
took over,
It controls you both
So they say you're
best to go your separate ways
Guess that they don't
know you '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 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 - Rihanna:]
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 - Eminem:]
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 its lies
I'm tired of the
games I just want her back
I know I'm a liar
If she ever tries to
fucking leave again
Im'a tie her to the
bed and set this house on fire
I'm just gonna
[Outro - Rihanna:]
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
