"Love The Way You Lie, Pt. III" lyrics

"Love The Way You Lie, Pt. III"
(Original Demo)

On the first page of our story
The future seemed so bright
Then the saint turned out so evil
I don't know why I'm still surprised
Even angels have their wicked schemes
And you take that to new extremes
But you'll always be my hero
Even though you've lost your mind

Just gonna stand there and watch me burn?
Well, that's all right because I like the way it hurts

Just gonna stand there and hear me cry?
Well, that's all right because I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie

Now there's gravel in our voices
And glasses shattered from the fight
In this tug of war, you always win
Even when I'm right
'Cause you feed me fables from your head
With violent words and empty threats

And it's sick that all these battles
Are what keeps me satisfied

Just gonna stand there and watch me burn?
Well, that's all right because I like the way it hurts

Just gonna stand there and hear me cry?
Well, that's all right because I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie

So maybe I'm a masochist
I try to run, but I don't wanna ever leave
'Til the walls are going up
In smoke with all our memories

Just gonna stand there and watch me burn?
Well, that's all right because I like the way it hurts

Just gonna stand there and hear me cry?
Well, that's all right because I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie
