Let me tell the tale of a broken man
he built a house he could call his home
he shared this house with the one he loved
but the one he loved had a heart of stone

no matter what this fella done
he worked his finger to the bone
he could never please the one he loved
cos the one he loved had a heart of stone

no matter how hard he tried 
he never seemed to get things right
he longed for love and to hold her hand
but the one he loved she was cold as ice

this broken man thought long and hard
he couldn't live this life no more
he stepped outside of the home he built
and with a broken heart he closed the door

then locked away in a lonely place
a million tears ran down his face
he cried and cried he could cry no more
he was a broken man with a broken heart

then what he thought was just another day
he tied his boots and made his way
to a place he knew where he spent some time
on a seat he sat in his world of pain

he sat alone as a girl ran by
she slowed her run and turned to the man
she walked right up and gave him a hug
was a girl from school was the man's first love

they sat alone and talked all night
hugged and kissed in a bright moonlight
was like the two had never been apart
she was there that day to mend his broken heart

I wanna tell the tale of a broken man
cos there's thousands more that are suffering
so don't despair cos there's always hope
you'll find another love and she will mend your heart

Sound is Sex

By Annabel Chima

Genre: Rap, Hip Hop, Indie, RnB, Pop This song is inspired by the flow and style of Nicki Minaj and Doja Cat. The hook is very catchy and engaging, immediately drawing the audience in. The overall lyrics are quirky, especially in the verses where I included double entendres, satire and confrontational, sexual jargon. The vibes/atmosphere of the lyrics are highly boastful, mocking, with a tint of anger. It fits perfectly into most genres, especially rap.
