Leave the Pieces

This is my new favorite song. Chances are if you've hung out with me at all in the past month or so, you've probably heard it too. I have great visions of Katie and me learning to play the song together.... For no other reason than I think it would be great. This morning, it was actually on the radio when my alarm was going off and in my delusional stage of half asleep / half awake, I passionately belted it out with them, until I actually realized I was singing along and decided to stop so as to not wake my roommate. Anyway, it's by The Wreckers, which is Michelle Branch and Jessica Harp (KC represent!). If you haven't heard the song, visit their website. It starts playing when the page loads. Anyway, here's the lyrics. This goes out to ETrain, the little engine that HAS.

You're not sure that you love me
But you're not sure enough to let me go
Baby it ain't fair
You know you just keep me hanging 'round

You say you don't wanna hurt me
Don't wanna see my tears
So why are you still standing here
Just watching me drown

And it's alright, yeah, I'll be fine
Don't worry about this heart of mine
Just, take your love and hit the road
There's nothing you can do or say
You're gonna break my heart anyway
So just leave the pieces when you go

Now you can drag out the heartache
Baby you can make it quick
Really get it over with and just let me move on
Don't concern yourself with this mess you left for me
I can clean it up you see
Just as long as you're gone

And it's alright, yeah, I'll be fine
Don't worry about this heart of mine
Just, take your love and hit the road
There's nothing you can do or say
You're gonna break my heart anyway
So just leave the pieces when you go

You're not making up your mind
It's killin' me
You're wasting time
I need so much more than that

And it's alright, yeah, I'll be fine
Don't worry about this heart of mine
Just, take your love and hit the road
There's nothing you can do or say
You're gonna break my heart anyway
So just leave the pieces when you go

Leave the pieces when you go
Leave the pieces when you go

It's about time this thing got updated - I could almost see the petals falling off as it began to wilt, shrivel, and die...but alas, it lives again!

bj, holy sh!t.

i didn't even pay attention to what your favorite song was because I knew I didn't have any speakers. Like, I didn't look at the title or the words or ANYTHING!!

And I added the exact same song to my myspace profile! How crazee is that??
