Eminem - Love The Way You Lie Lyrics

Read Time:3 Minute, 36 Second

Just gonna stand there and watch me burn?
Well, thats alright because I like the way it hurts
Just gonna stand there and hear me cry?
Well, thats alright because I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie

I cant tell you what it really is
I can only tell you what it feels like
And right now, theres a steel knife in my windpipe
I cant breathe, but I still fight while I can fight
As long as the wrong feels right, its like Im in flight
High off her love, drunk from her hate
Its like Im huffin paint, and I love her the more I suffer, I suffocate
And right before Im about to drown, she resuscitates me
She f- hates me, and I love it

Wait! Where you going? Im leaving you
No, you aint, come back
Were running right back, here we go again
Its so insane cause when its going good, its going great
Im Superman with the wind at his back, shes Lois Lane
But when its bad, its awful
I feel so ashamed, I snapped, Whos that dude?
I dont even know his name
I laid hands on her, Ill never stoop so low again
I guess I dont know my own strength

You ever loved somebody so much
You can barely breathe when youre with em?
You meet and neither one of you even know what hit em
Got that warm fuzzy feelin, yeah, them chills, used to get em
Now youre gettin f- sick of lookin at em?
You swore youd never hit em, never do nothin to hurt em
Now youre in each others face, spewin venom in your words when you spit em
You push, pull each others hair, scratch, claw, bit em
Throw em down, pin em
So lost in them moments when youre in em

Its the rage that took over, it controls you both
So they say youre best to go your separate ways
Guess that they dont know you cause today, that was yesterday
Yesterday is over, its a different day
Sound like broken records playin over, but you promised her
Next time, youll show restraint
You dont get another chance
Life is no Nintendo game, but you lied again
Now you get to watch her leave out the window
Guess thats why they call it windowpane

I love the way you lie

Now I know we said things, did things that we didnt mean
Then we fall back into the same patterns, same routine
But your tempers just as bad as mine is
Youre the same as me, when it comes to love, youre just as blinded
Baby, please come back, it wasnt you, baby, it was me
Maybe our relationship isnt as crazy as it seems
Maybe thats 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
Dont you hear sincerity in my voice when I talk?
Told you this is my fault, look me in the eyeball
Next time Im p-, Ill aim my fist at the drywall
Next time? There wont be no next time
I apologize, even though I know its lies
Im tired of the games, I just want her back
I know Im a liar, if she ever tries to f- leave again
Ima tie her to the bed and set this house on fire

Just gonna stand there and watch me burn?
Well, thats alright because I like the way it hurts
Just gonna stand there and hear me cry?
Well, thats alright, because I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie
