Love the way you lie .

Was bored so tried this writing prompt .
Use the words from your favorite song (or the song that is stuck in your head), mix them up and write a short short story using every word.

Used Love the way you lie by Eminem ft. Rihanna .

I didn't use all the words but I used a lot of the main ones :) .

O how I love the way you lie . So shamelessly to my face.

No matter how much you try to hide it the blood stains won’t wash away from your hands.

Are you just going to stand there and watch me burn ?
And right now there's a steel knife in my windpipe. I can't breathe.
You smile triumphantly. Do I amuse you ?

But I will still fight while I can fight. Life is no Nintendo game.

But that's alright because I like the way it hurts. As long as I can feel I know I am alive.

I pull the knife away and push you down.

It's like I'm in flight. High of a love. Drunk from the hate.
I press the knife against your throat.
You stare at me in amusement a hearty laugh escapes your lips.

“You're the same as me.” you say .

I feel so ashamed. The knife slips from my fingers.

I love the way you lie. It's like I'm huffin' paint.
It's so insane. I'll never stoop so low again I promise myself.

“I'm leaving you.” I say firmly and turn to go .

“No you ain't.” ”Come back.” You demand.

You jump to your feet fire in your eyes. You push me back .

Are you just going to stand there and hear me cry ?

I snap . I will no longer be your victim.

“That was yesterday, yesterday is over.” “It's a different day.” I say firmly.

I pull out a gun and aim it at you heart.

“I know I'm a liar.” You say walking slowing towards me .

“Look me in the eyeball .” “ Next time I'm pissed I'll aim my fist at the dry wall.”

“Next time..”

“There will be no next time.” I shout back .

“Now I know we said things and did things that we didn't mean.” You apologize.

It's the rage that took over as I shot the pistol. I shake as you stare back in shock.

You ever love somebody so much that you can barely breathe?

You swore you've never hit 'em. Never do nothing to hurt 'em.

But now here you lay my love a bullet in your chest .
I turn to to go tears filling my eyes .

“Baby please come back it wasn't you.” “Baby it was me.” You cry out .

My whole being tells me to leave you there.

All I know is I love you too much. To just walk away .

I guess I don't know my own strength as I lay beside you.

“I love you . “ you tell me .

O how I love the way you lie .

I dial 911 and put the phone against your ear .

I stand and smirk. “Now you watch as I walk away.”

Your eyes trail out to the window.

“Maybe our relationship isn't as crazy as it seems. "

“Maybe that's what happens when a tornado meets a volcano.” You say as you watch me go .

“Come inside.” You cry.

“No more . “ I whisper as I turn the key in the ignition . Even at the end you lie to me .

How fitting, I love the way you lie .
