Love The Way You Lie (cover) - Victor Lu ft. Carmen Chu

Everybody deals with heartbreaks and trials in their own ways and at their own pace, but sometimes we just have to face the finality of the ending without denial or disbelief. I wrote this one a few months back when I was in a dark place, and I guess in some ways, I never really left.

Instrumental belongs to Terrell Canute (sick version), and a big thank you goes out to Carmen for the hook and for editing the video -- with random, cheesy effects! Enjoy guys, hopefully I didn't butcher this version, and as usual, PM me if you want the mp3.

[Lyrics]

Verse 1:
I know I must've written this verse about a thousand times
But it's still not sounding right every rhyme I write
Right now sounds like the last line I just wrote
Like these thoughts in my mind are encrypted -- can't break the code
Like the pieces of the puzzle are so jumbled together that
They don't resemble what the picture on the front show
And I'm still waiting here knowing
That there's no signs I can put up to stop you from going
Emotions swirling on this merry go round
No sound even though I'm here going all out
My tank is empty, you're telling me to slow down
But that was a no back then, it's still a no now
I know now if feelings could turn so fast then maybe
It was never meant to last after this 180
I won't look back, my vision's getting hazy, you're just part of the past
That I packed away in a shopping bag in the back

Verse 2:
What's there left to say, I guess we're all talked out
You saw an exit sign in our future and walked out
We were going steady miles but we hit a wall now
Ran straight into timing, you can say we both clocked out
Every memory is on lock down
Promised myself to rebound but forgot to box out now
Thought I had it all mapped out
Now I'm drinking in these lyrics before I pass out in the background
The bass is heavy but I can't seem to match the sound now
Made contact but I guess it was a ground out
We were one and a half, you wanted to round down
I was pushing up but we couldn't make this work out
So who to blame, is it my fault now
That I left for that trip or yours for taking that job now?
Who am I kidding, it was gonna end up like this somehow
All I know this time is there's no going back now

Verse 3:
Pop in the CD, every song on it reminds me of better days
Where I didn't have to get on my knees
And beg for a little time so you would see me
Like you were on the phone and all I kept getting was the busy
Tone and now I'm stuck in the moment
Super glued together but still missing the main component
Since you left like a demolition I'm falling apart
Rebuilding the pieces but can't repaint the scar marks
Yeah it's hard, every song I write about you still leaves me speechless
It's ironic, I don't want to doubt your reasons but
I don't know how to move on, how do I go forward
If my heart's still where I'm coming from?
All I do is miss you, regret every miscue
Is the issue forcing me or is it with you?
Quick to bleach out these stains but I can't forget you
In the end am I better off now or before I met you?
