The saddest key is said to be the D Minor Chord
D-F minor third then F-A Major third.
Inspired by the D-Minor.
Added the following after the comment/s...
(As Nigel Tufnel, the waggish musician protagonist of the 1984 mockumentary Spinal Tap, said when putting his sentimental “Lick My Love Pump” in D minor: “It's the saddest of all keys. I don't know why, but it makes people weep, instantly, when you play it!”)

[_In response to @paulroe's comment I am planning on making a second song to this hopefully God Willing to explain how he get's over or when or something like that to show he doesn't forever feel pain in his heart; it just feels that way!]*side-note I should explain I could be pretty dramatical~ literally at times with tons of emotions coming and going or staying etc. etc.
Did I tell you that I am Bipolar?
*possibly fixed it just by changing a line in the song from When I can't get over you to: When It feels like I can’t get over you
[INTRO]The D Minor Triad
got played on my heart
[VERSE 1]I’m so sad you’re gone
Where did I go wrong?
No one can replace
I can’t even erase
The D Minor Chord
What the hell am I going to do?
Because I’m left
with the D Minor Chord
continuously playing
on my heart
[CHORUS]you played the D MINOR CHORD
D Minor Chord
you played the D Minor Chord
D Minor Chord
directly on my heart
directly from within
The D Minor Chord
The D Minor Chord
[VERSE 2]How could someone as wonderful as you
Give me what you’re putting me through
Leaving me feel so sad, depressed and blue
I still can’t even erase
the D Minor Chord
it just seems to linger on
Keeping me feeling
so out of sorts
It’s still playing on my heart
[CHORUS]you played the D MINOR CHORD
D Minor Chord
you played the D Minor Chord
D Minor Chord
directly on my heart
directly from within
The D Minor Chord
The D Minor Chord
[VERSE 3]Because you played the D Minor Chord
Right on my Heart
All this pain I’m going through
Because you played the D Minor Chord
Directly on my heart
Piercing me from within
I’m without a grin
Because you played the D Minor Chord
Directly on my heart
I can’t even erase
the saddest music
that i face
It just lingers on
Continuously playing on
[CHORUS]you played the D MINOR CHORD
D Minor Chord
you played the D Minor Chord
D Minor Chord
directly on my heart
directly from within
The D Minor Chord
The D Minor Chord
[BRIDGE]The D Minor is still playing on my heart
Which is the saddest key
including a minor third
than a major third
In lieu of a D Minor Chord
Could have played a beautification grace note instead
Give me a grace note instead
Give me a grace note instead
Give me a grace note instead
But I got the D Minor Chord
Gave me the D Minor Chord
It was played on my heart
You’re out of sight
but the hurt lives on
just like an ostinato
keeps replaying on repeat
from within
What am I going to do
When It feels like I can’t get over you
Left me in all this pain;
it’s as if I’m in constant rain
I’m constantly feeling so lapis lazuli
You got me feeling so lapis lazuli
IT keeps playing on my heart
my heart heart heart
my heart heart heart
It’s like a rhythmic knife keeps going through
[CHORUS]you played the D MINOR CHORD
D Minor Chord
you played the D Minor Chord
D Minor Chord
directly on my heart
directly from within
The D Minor Chord
The D Minor Chord
[OUTRO]Just to think I could have been euphoric, exalted and flying high
If you just played the beautification grace note instead, the grace note instead!

@nahlej381 Feb 2022
I can’t NOT imagine a spinal tap rendition of this lol very well written as usual! I’m gonna cry just thinking of Dm
@katestantonsings Feb 2022
"Because you played the D Minor Chord
Directly on my heart

the saddest music

@yewnorker Feb 2022
This really struck a chord with me! Nice!
@nadine Feb 2022
Funny, I learned the Dm chord on guitar yesterday and I love that melancholy *_* Great that a chord inspire you for such great lyrics. I love the image that only musicians understand. Lapis Lazuli for blue.. interesting. I wonder when the blue note drops in.
@mrtylerlarson Feb 2022
magical. Nigel's vision comes to life!
@paulroe Feb 2022
This chant like lyric contemplates altering the entire trajectory of one's life by the choice of someone close playing one note/chord over another. The minor chord has physically manifested itself on the heart and cannot be removed or undone, an effective metaphor for obsessive thoughts, persistent memories, inconsolable sadness affecting one's physical state.
Always a good thing when lapis lazuli is brought to bear!
What could have been, what is, and what remains. Word painting the chords into a musical rendition should be interesting.

Nigel would be proud.
