All I've Ever Loved

It's that time again! The time where I post lyrics that I've written and you read them and tell me what you think. The music for this song is a work in progress, but I feel like it's going to be pretty good. I don't know if I'll add more to the lyrics, probably some sort of outro, but I'm not sure. This is just a song baby right now, but I'm kind of on the fence about the lyrics. I'm not huge on rhyming, and this one rhymes. A lot. So, tell me... are they corny? emo? genius? ;) hahaha Well, Here you go.

All I've Ever Loved

What's just short of perfection

Is what I've deserved

Never needing the best

Never coming in first

I've always been fine

With this ramshackle life

That's why I'll be your lover

That's why I'd be your wife

You suck the soul out of me

Like venom from a snake

At first glance, you're a hero

Cleansing wounds, mending breaks

But, as you and I become entwined

It's then I see your fangs

I guess loving beasts

Is what I do best

Keeping poison in my veins

I don't love you because you're all I've ever wanted

I just want you because you're all I've ever loved

Can you save me from this ghost that haunts my bedroom?

Can you cure me of my addiction to your drug?

So let's kiss without passion

Let's touch but not feel

It can't hurt without meaning

Only hurts when it's real

Why try to do better

When we can't have the best?

That's why I'll never leave you

A numb heart's not depressed

You suck the soul out of me

Like venom from a snake

At first glance, you're a hero

Cleansing wounds, mending breaks

But, as you and I become entwined

It's then I see your fangs

I guess loving beasts

Is what I do best

Keeping poison in my veins

I don't love you because you're all I've ever wanted

I just want you because you're all I've ever loved

Can you save me from this ghost that haunts my bedroom?

Can you cure me of my addiction to your drug?

Yep...there will probably be more lyrics and alterations, etc. But PLEASE comment! I really really need your input. Also, I'm going to really try this semester to actually make something happen with the songs I've been writing. I hope that you'll all be able to actually hear them in completion instead of reading my lyrics or listening to me play a half-hearted attempt at an incomplete song. So yeah... tell me if this is crap or not. I hope you're all having a wonderful day! :D
