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 alright because I like the way it hurts
You're just gonna stand there and hear me cry
Well, that's alright 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 (I love the way you lie)

Now there's gravel in our voices
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 (satisfied)

Just gonna stand there and watch me burn
Well, that's alright because I like the way it hurts
You're just gonna stand there and hear me cry
Well, that's alright because I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie (the way you lie) (love the way you lie)
I love the way you lie (the way you lie) (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 (memories)
Oh

Just gonna stand there and watch me burn
Well, that's alright because I like the way it hurts
You're just gonna stand there and hear me cry
Well, that's alright because I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie (the way you lie) (love the way you lie)
I love the way you lie (the way you lie) (love the way you lie)
I love the way you lie (the way you lie) (love the way you lie)
(The way you lie, the way you lie) (love the way you lie)
