A Diary of A Single Man: This Bleeding Heart

Heavy is the head which wears the traditional gold & black crown. 

A Diary of A Single Man: This Bleeding Heart

Intro Chorus: This Bleeding Heart

Don’t know what to do
I’m constantly thinking of you
I’m so tired and confused

Right now
(uh)
I’m going down
(like)
I’m drownin’ fast
(oh)

I feel cold
When I’m away from you
(Yeah! Yeah!)
I need my fix
Another hit of you

To get through 
(Uh)
Just a little taste
To get me right 
(Please)
Could you hold me tight
Don’t let go

Verse 1:

It’s not what you say baby
(Maybe)
It’s how you say it
(Lady)

We’re disastrously like Vaseline & sand
Tailor made for each other

In a way most pestering nosy people won’t understand

As a matter of fact

Why don’t you go snack on that reality

Chew on your flat cinnamon

Quill sticks with your mouth closed

Nobody needs to hear you smack

Nobody took the time to tell you the expiration date makes it non-edible
Please don’t spoil the show like a soiled diaper
There’s always a master plan
We can’t let them know 

Lets keep our issues local

Inside our sacred circle 

(Feel me)
Don’t let
The left hand
Play the right hand
Don’t reveal your true colors to the young and

Savage people they’re not our equal
Unless you don’t understand 
Harlem rolls in silence
We stand out like
Beautiful colors that’s vibrant
Let’s stay below radar, and harmonize 

Keep our business on silent can’t you smell the Fragrance of success

(He who has true grit resides within. They possess the ability. They have the power and the passion along with the perseverance to see all things manifest into fruition.) 
A Diary of A Single Man: This Bleeding Heart

Chorus: This Bleeding Heart

Don’t know what to do
I’m constantly thinking of you
I’m so tired and confused

Right now
(uh)
I’m going down
(like)
I’m drownin’ fast
(oh)

I feel cold
When I’m away from you
(Yeah! Yeah!)
I need my fix
Another hit of you 

To get through
(Uh)
Just a little taste
To get me right
(Please)
Could you hold me tight
Don’t let go

Verse 2:


Bye bye little birdie

Spread your wings and sail away

There’s nothing more I can say

When I walked away from you
I didn’t mean to send lusting mixed signals
I needed space from this restricted weighted down Tethered love affair 
To clear the air
To plan my next move
Later hoping you’d understand

But, you plucked at me and you 

Fucked with me getting on my very last

Nerve. I don’t understand your antics I don’t Appreciate this caper

Your mouth flaps open like a broken gate.

You blew up my cellphone mumbling & bumbling
Blah blah
This
Blah blah
That
You twisted all the facts 

And created an illusion

Which caused so much confusion 

So I withheld information 

Let you fall off your tracks

Just to prove my point

And get you back

Your swag doesn’t match my moxie

You’re a carbon copy

Learn something and keep watching me

Your style is different you rhyme off key

You’re that awful nasty toxic fly in the ointment

That attracts shit and sticks like gum to a shoe but Repels like a magnet.

– 

No more lusting for another lollipop love without a glove

It’s too expensive to risk it

Let’s just bury the hatchet and count our losses

It makes no sense to try to force it

Chorus: This Bleeding Heart


Don’t know what to do
I’m constantly thinking of you
I’m so tired and confused
It’s time to get over you


Right now
(uh)
I’m going down
(like)
I’m drownin’ fast
(oh)

I feel cold
When I’m away from you
(Yeah! Yeah!)
I need my fix
Another hit of you 

To get through
(Uh)
Just a little taste
To get me right  
(Please)
Could you hold me tight
Don’t let go

Verse 3

I couldn’t talk
Cause
I wasn’t home alone
(Uh)
You got mad
Cursed me too
You wanted to fuss, fight
and argue 

(I wasn’t tryin’ to hear that)

You turned sexy sunny days

Into peculiar cloudy and rainy days

It’s best for us to part our ways 

Your tethered love is full with suffocating hidden restraints it’s becoming uncomfortable and difficult

To breathe

I can’t even think

– 

You made me cringe

All I could think of was revenge

You ripped apart this bleeding heart

Screeching wheels turning in my head

From all the horrible things you just said

I had to get away from you
I felt alone and so confused
I knew this dormant relationship
Was over
You keep blowin’ up my cell
This passenger is tapping out

Slow down baby you’re swervin’

People dash out your way because you’re drivin’ Crazy

I’m getting off this train wreck of a relationship 

I need some space 
Away from you

A Diary of A Single Man: This Bleeding Heart

Chorus Outro Fades: This Bleeding Heart

Don’t know what to do
I’m constantly thinking of you
I’m sooo tired and confused  
It’s time to get over you


Right now
(uh)
I’m going down
(like)
I’m drowning fast
(oh)

I feel cold
When I’m away from you
(Yeah! Yeah!)
I need my fix
Another hit of you 

To get through
(Uh)
Just to get me right
Please hold me tight

Right now
(uh)
I’m going down
 (like)
I’m drownin’ fast

(oh)

Don’t know what to do
I’m always thinking about you
I’m sooo tired and confused
It’s time to get over you

  1. That is a lovely song and I found it interesting that you were able to incorporate nine Daily Prompt words into it, being snack, local, illusion, magnet, sunny, cringe, wheels, passenger and dash.

    1. Thank you very much. Your kind words are appreciated. Incorporating the daily prompts is a challenge by itself. In a way this method allows me to build/add to the story/song. I’m really happy you enjoyed it. It tells me I may be doing something right.

  2. Probably my favourite line “SCREECHING WHEELS TURNING IN MY HEAD” of today because I can kinda hear/see it… in my head!

    1. Smiling no doubt… 😉. Bless you for taking the time to read my post. I appreciate you.
