Lyrics & chords

[Chorus 1]
Just gonna [Em]stand there and watch me [C]burn?
Well, that's al[G]right,
because I like the way it [D]hurts
Just gonna [Em]stand there and hear me [C]cry?
Well, that's al[G]right,
because I love the way you [D]lie
I love the way you [Em]lie

[Verse 1]
I can't tell you what it [Em]really is
I can only tell you what it feels like
[C]And right now,
there's a steel knife in my windpipe
[G]I can't breathe, but I still fight while I can fight
[D]As long as the wrong feels right,
it's like I'm in flight
[Em]High off of love, drunk from her hate
It's like I'm huffing [C]paint and I love her,
the more I suffer I suffocate
[G]and right before I'm about to drown
She resusci[D]tates me, she fucking hates me
And I love it, [Em]"Wait, where you going?"
"I'm leaving you" "No you ain't, [C]come back"
We're running right back, here we go again
[G]It's so insane 'cause when it's going good,
it's going great
[D]I'm Superman, with the wind at his back,
she's Lois Lane
[Em]But when it's bad, it's awful
I feel so ashamed, [C]I snapped,
"Who's that dude?"
I don't even know his name,
[G]I laid hands on her
I'll never stoop so low again,
[D]I guess I don't know my own strength

[Chorus 2]
Just gonna [Em]stand there and
watch me [C]burn?
Well, that's al[G]right,
because I like the way it [D]hurts
Just gonna [Em]stand there
and hear me [C]cry?
Well, that's al[G]right,
because I love the way you [D]lie
I love the way you [Em]lie[C]
I love the way you [G]lie[D]

[Verse 2]
You ever love some[Em]body so much
you can barely breathe when you're with 'em?
You [C]meet, and neither one of you,
even know what hit 'em
Got that [G]warm fuzzy feeling, yeah,
them chills, used to get 'em
Now you're [D]getting fucking sick
of looking at 'em
You swore you've never [Em]hit 'em,
never do nothing to hurt 'em
Now you're in each other's [C]face
Spewing venom in your words
when you spit 'em
You [G]push, pull each other's hair,
scratch, claw, bit 'em
Throw 'em [D]down, pin 'em, so lost
in the moments when you're in 'em
It's the [Em]rage that took over,
it controls you both
So they say you're [C]best to go
your separate ways
Guess that they don't know ya
'cause to[G]day that was yesterday
Yesterday is over, it's a [D]different day
Sound like broken records playin' over
But you [Em]promised her,
next time you'll show restraint
You don't get an[C]other chance,
life is no Nintendo game
But you lied a[G]gain
Now you get to watch her
leave out the window
Guess that's [D]why they call it window pane

[Chorus 3]
Just gonna [Em]stand there and
watch me [C]burn?
Well, that's al[G]right,
because I like the way it [D]hurts
Just gonna [Em]stand there
and hear me [C]cry?
Well, that's al[G]right,
because I love the way you [D]lie
I love the way you [Em]lie[C]
I love the way you [G]lie[D]

[Verse 3]
Now I know we [Em]said things,
did things that we didn't mean
Then we [C]fall back into the same patterns
Same routine, [G]but your temper's
just as bad as mine is
You're the same as me, [D]when it comes to love,
you're just as blinded
Baby, please [Em]come back, it wasn't you
Baby, it was me, maybe [C]our relationship
isn't as crazy as it seems
Maybe [G]that's what happens
when a tornado meets a volcano
[D]All I know is I love you too much
to walk away though
[Em]Come inside,
pick up your bags off the sidewalk
[C]Don't you hear sincerity
in my voice when I talk?
[G]Told you this is my fault, look me in the eyeball
[D]Next time I'm pissed,
I'll aim my fist at the drywall
[Em]Next time? There won't be no next time
I apolo[C]gize, even though I know it's lies
I'm tired of the [G]games, I just want her back,
I know I'm a liar
If she [D]ever tries to fucking leave again
I'm a tie her to the bed
and set this house on fire

[Chorus 4]
Just gonna [Em]stand there and
watch me [C]burn?
Well, that's al[G]right,
because I like the way it [D]hurts
Just gonna [Em]stand there
and hear me [C]cry?
Well, that's al[G]right,
because I love the way you [D]lie
I love the way you [Em]lie[C]
I love the way you [G]lie[D]
