Bleeding Heart
What you got on tapI’ll take two of thatI’m chasing a story I heardWhen I was here lastAt the back of the classYou pretended you never got lost
Yeah at the back of the classIn the back of the busSitting out at the danceAlways saying no thanksWhen they see you aroundYou look down at the groundBut when they walk awayYou wish they’d stayed…
Never never mind, bleeding heart, bleeding heartNever never mind your bleeding heartNever never mind, bleeding heart, bleeding heartNever never mind your bleeding heart
You can’t help but stare at everyone thereIt’s you versus everyone elseYour outfit’s a crimeYou feel their cold mindsPlacing you under arrestAnd you serve your timeDrinking all night longStaring at the wallsOf your jail-like homeListening to that song’Cause it hurts just rightTill everything is gone tonight…
Never never mind, bleeding heart, bleeding heartNever never mind your bleeding heartNever never mind, bleeding heart, bleeding heartNever never mind your bleeding heart
Someday you’ll grow upAnd then you’ll forgetAll of the pain you enduredUntil you walk by a sad pair of eyesAnd up will come back all the hurtAnd you’ll see their painAs they look awayAnd you want to helpBut there’s just no way’Cause you’ve won the warSo it’s not your turnBut everything inside still burns…
Never never mind, bleeding heart, bleeding heartNever never mind your bleeding heartNever never mind, bleeding heart, bleeding heartNever never mind your bleeding heart
How long must I wait…’til you learn that it’s not too lateHow long must I cry…’til you know that you really triedHow long must I try…’til you learn that dreaming’s hardHow long must I dream…’til you heal your bleeding heartNever mind your bleeding heart…
