it is about two people pushing each other to phsycological extremes because they love each other.
the song is not about one person being attacked, or any actual physical violence, there are no victims in this song.
sometimes the love two people have for each other is a destructive force. but they cant have it any other way,
because its what holds them together, they enjoy the drama and pushing each others buttons.
the only way to express these extreme emotions is with extreme imagery, all of which is fantasism and nothing in the song is based on reality.

leona lewis's bleeding love isn't actually about her bleeding.
this isnt really about punching someone in the face. thank you and goodnight. x

I don't get what the big deal would be if people thought it was about domestic violence,
what, would that make it less NME / radio friendly...?
Who cares.

It's unfortunate if you have to explain that though, maybe the song isn't as clear as you thought?

Robert Smith by his nature is a man who cannot fall for a woman unless it Friday, poor sap. If you see him on the bus on the weekend give him a cuddle.

I wish bleeding love was about leona lewis bleeding, the amount it's been played she'd have no blood left.
