Perilous Love Lyrics

Take what you want. Leave me broken, leave me estranged. Just tear me apart. Still my devotion remains the same. I bit my tongue for fear of igniting something I can't tame. A perilous love will be my undoing. Nothing will remain. What you want from me is my everything. What you want is a perfect endeavor. What I want can't escape from me now. What you want from me is my everything. What you want is subconsciously clever. All I want are deliberate lies. I try to escape from my mind but I've been tied with subliminal lines. I try to retain what is mine and I just lie just to keep us alive. Set me aside with brazen integrity I can't obtain. Leave my insides tangled in knots that I can't rearrange. No time left to devote. Madness follows a slippery slope.

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
