Em C
On the first page of our story
G D
the future seemed so bright
Em C
then this thing turned out so evil
G D
I don't know why I'm still surprised
Em C
even angels have their wicked schemes
G D
and you take that to new extremes
Em C
but you'll always be my hero
G D
even though you've lost your mind
[Chorus]
Em C
Just gonna stand there and watch me burn
G D
but that's all right because I like the way it hurts
Em C
just gonna stand there and hear me cry
G D
but that's all right because I love the way you lie
Em C
I love the way you lie
G D
Ohhh, I love the way you lie
Em C
Now there's gravel in our voices
G D
glass is shattered from the fight
Em C
in this tug of war, you'll always win
G D
even when I'm right
Em C
'cause you feed me fables from your hand
G D
with violent words and empty threats
Em C
and it's sick that all these battles
G D
are what keeps me satisfied
[Chorus]
Em C
Just gonna stand there and watch me burn
G D
but that's all right because I like the way it hurts
Em C
just gonna stand there and hear me cry
G D
but that's all right because I love the way you lie
Em C
I love the way you lie
G D
Ohhh, I love the way you lie
Em C
So maybe I'm a masochist
G D
I try to run but I don't wanna ever leave
Em C
til the walls are goin' up
G D
in smoke with all our memories
Em C
Just gonna stand there and watch me burn
G D
but that's all right because I like the way it hurts
Em C
just gonna stand there and hear me cry
G D
but that's all right because I love the way you lie
Em C
I love the way you lie
G D
Ohhh, I love the way you lie
