stupidhead Posted May 7, 2007 Posted May 7, 2007 hiya people, i'm in an american music class at my school and this was one of the songs we listened to in class - i just sat there in stunned silence because of how perfectly it fit my situation at the time. i figure that probably holds true for a lot of people trying to stick to NC or LC. i was having a really hard time coping (i live on the same campus as my ex) b/c i kept trying to hang out with him since we'd been best friends since before we started dating. i realized after about two months of this that it just made me miserable and i was clinging onto hope that i probably shouldn't be. so we're doing the very LC thing (i just told him i need more space). haven't seen him in person in about three weeks (?!) and have had two brief & to-the-point email convos during this period. i've been doing SO much better, though i do slip backwards (this weekend has been esp hard b/c i kept seeing him at my school's spring festival thingy, but avoided him...still i was thinking about him all day, still do today, and am pretty miserable). ANYWAY...enough about me and my problems...here you go, perhaps someone else who uses music as a way of emotionally venting will enjoy it too https://vspace.vassar.edu/marmurphy/1-04%20I%20Fall%20To%20Pieces.mp3?uniq=-31h62f Patsy Cline - "I fall to pieces" I fall to pieces Each time I see you again I fall to pieces How can I be just your friend You want me to act like we've never kissed You want me to forget, pretend we've never met And I've tried and Ive tried but I haven't yet You walk by, and I fall to pieces I fall to pieces Each time someone speaks your name I fall to pieces Time only adds to the flame You tell me to find someone else to love Someone who'll love me, too, the way you used to do But each time I go out with someone new You walk by and I fall to pieces (I fall to pieces) Each time someone speaks your name (I fall to pieces) Time only adds to the flame You tell me to find someone else to love Someone who'll love me too, the way you used to do But each time I go out with someone new You walk by and I fall to pieces I fall to pieces Each time I see you again I fall to pieces How can I be just your friend You want me to act like weve never kissed You want me to forget, pretend weve never met And Ive tried and Ive tried but I havent yet You walk by, and I fall to pieces I fall to pieces Each time someone speaks your name I fall to pieces Time only adds to the flame You tell me to find someone else to love Someone wholl love me, too, the way you used to do But each time I go out with someone new You walk by and I fall to pieces

Author stupidhead Posted May 7, 2007 Author Posted May 7, 2007 aw, i can't edit my original post, i accidentally posted the lyrics twice in a row, sorry 'bout that. just read the lyrics to that song, and they do seem very pertinent. i'll have to see if i can find it 'round the internets.
2ndIINone Posted May 7, 2007 Posted May 7, 2007 There are a gazillion whiney piney pathetic break up songs out there... (I think the music industry preys on the heartbroken), but there is only ONE song I've heard that pretty much says it all from a dumpee's point of view. From the Relationship, to the break up... to how the dumpee usually acts just after the breakup. The nc... the end...
