Bed Of Lies

Nicki Minaj- Bed Of Lies ft. Skylar Grey feat. Skyler Grey

Song features singer-songwriter Skylar Grey on the chorus; This song has touching lyrics that touch upon themes of "heartfelt litany of grievances" about an ex-lover. I love the new style Nicki is portraying in this song. "Do you ever think of me when you lie? Lie down in your bed, your bed of lies... And I knew better than to look in your eyes, They only pretend you would be mine, And oh, how you made me believe, You had me caught in every web that you weaved, But do you ever think of me when you lie?

Lie down in your bed, your bed of lies" - Nicki Minaj

Song Lyrics:

[Intro: Skylar Grey]

Oh-oh-oh, yeah

[Chorus: Skylar Grey]

Do you ever think of me when you lie? (When you lie)

Lie down in your bed, your bed of lies

And I knew better than to look in your eyes (In your eyes)

They only pretend you would be mine

And oh, how you made me believe (Oh)

You had me caught in every web that you weaved

But do you ever think of me when you lie? (When you lie)

Lie down in your bed, your bed of lies

[Verse 1: Nicki Minaj]

You could never make eye contact

Everything you got was based off of my contacts

You a fraud but I'ma remain icon-stat

Balenciagas on my boots with a python strap

You was caught up in the rush and you was caught up in the thrill of it

You was with me way before I hit a quarter mil' in it

Put you in the crib and you ain't never pay a bill in it

I was killin' it, now you got me poppin' pills in it

I told Baby hit you, I said, "This ni**a buggin'"

'Cause I was doin' it for us, I told 'em fuck the public

Couldn't believe that I was home alone, contemplatin' overdosin'

No more coastin', no more toastin' over oceans

[Pre-Chorus: Nicki Minaj]

They say you don't know what you got 'til it's gone

They say that your darkest hour come before your dawn

But there was something that I shoulda asked all along

I'ma ask on the song

[Chorus: Skylar Grey]

Do you ever think of me when you lie? (When you lie)

Lie down in your bed, your bed of lies

And I knew better than to look in your eyes (In your eyes)

They only pretend you would be mine

And oh, how you made me believe (Oh)

You had me caught in every web that you weaved

But do you ever think of me when you lie? (When you lie)

Lie down in your bed, your bed of lies

[Verse 2: Nicki Minaj]

I just figured if you saw me, if you looked in my eyes

You'd remember our connection and be freed from the lies

I just figured I was something that you couldn't replace

But there was just a blank stare and I couldn't relate

I just couldn't understand and I couldn't defend

What we had, what we shared, and I couldn't pretend

When the tears rolled down, it's like you ain't even notice 'em

If you had a heart, I was hopin' that you would show it some

What the fuck you really tellin' me? What you tellin' me?

I could tell you lyin', get the fuck out, don't yell at me

I ain't mean to cut you, I ain't wanna catch a felony

This ain't How To Be A Player, you ain't Bill Bellamy

[Pre-Chorus: Nicki Minaj]

They say you don't know what you got 'til it's gone

They say that your darkest hour come before your dawn

But there was something that I shoulda asked all along

I'ma ask on the song

[Bridge: Skylar Grey]

So does she know I've been in that bed before? (Bed before)

A thousand count and not a single thread of truth

If I was just another girl (Another girl)

Then I'm ashamed to say that I'm not over you

There's one thing I need to know

So call me when you're not so busy

Just thinkin' of yourself (Thinkin' of yourself)

[Chorus: Skylar Grey]

Do you ever think of me when you lie? (When you lie)

Lie down in your bed, your bed of lies

And I knew better than to look in your eyes (In your eyes)

They only pretend you would be mine

And oh, how you made me believe (Oh)

You had me caught in every web that you weaved

But do you ever think of me when you lie? (When you lie)

Lie down in your bed, your bed of lies
