Have I Ever Told You...

Have I Ever Told You...

have i ever told you,
that i love it when you smile,
have i ever told you,
that i love it when you look at me,

and have i ever told you,
that i love it when you defile,
or have i ever told you,
that i love you when i bleed,

and have i ever told you,
that your malice is a cold slap,
that i smile for,
because that requires contact,

you could drag my face in the mud,
and you could spit in my face,
and i'd buy you a gift to repay you,
for getting in your way,

and you could cut my throat,
and flick the blood in my eyes,
and as i struggle for air,
with my last breath, i'd apologize,

have i ever told you,
that i have never been strong,
have i ever told you,
here dies our love ever longed.
