Lyrics

Just gonna stand there and watch me burn
That's alright because I like the way it hurts
Just gonna stand there and hear me cry
That's alright because I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie

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 of a love
Drunk from the 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 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 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

Just gonna stand there and watch me burn
That's alright because I like the way it hurts
Just gonna stand there and hear me cry
That's alright because I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie

You ever love somebody so much you can barely breathe?
When you're with them
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 getting fucking sick of looking at 'em

You swore you've 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 '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 rage that took over
It controls you both
So they say it's best to go your separate ways
Guess that they don't know ya
'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'll 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

Just gonna stand there and watch me burn
That's alright because I like the way it hurts
Just gonna stand there and hear me cry
That's alright because I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie

Now I know we said things
Did things that we didn't mean
We fall back into the same patters
Same routine
Your temper's just as bad as mine is, you're the same as me
But when it comes to love, you're just as blinded, baby

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 I 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 will 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
I'mma tie her to the bed
And set this house on fire

Just gonna stand there and watch me burn (watch me burn)
That's alright because I like the way it hurts
Just gonna stand there and hear me cry (hear me cry)
That's alright because I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie
