For the iPod: Death by Chocolate by Sia

The title of this song caught my eye first, since anyone who knows me for about 30 seconds has a run down of my almost inordinate desire for chocolate. Then I realized how much it pertains to my particular emotional sensibility at this time in life, and I liked it even more. And it relates to something most people can relate to, namely, the experience of feeling broken-hearted. the lyrics are simple and a little witty. I'd recommend Sia's music in general; she has a very unique sound to her music. So here it is - I don't think it's an official music video, but at least it plays the song. Enjoy!

Death by chocolate is myth
This I know because I lived
I've been around for broken hearts and how
Lay your head in my hands little girl
This is only right now

Death by crying doesn't exist, though
The headaches feel a bit like it
You might explode
But you reach the end of the road
And you, little tree
I'm certain you will grow

Tears on your pillow will dry and you will learn
Just how to love again
Oh my weeping willow
Let your leaves fall and return
Oh darling the seasons are your friend

Death by anger this is true
Just let him go he can't hurt you
Oh little girl this is such a cruel cruel world
This is the first, of a million broken hearts

Tears on your pillow will dry and you will learn
Just how to love again
Oh my weeping willow
Let your leaves fall and return
Oh darling the seasons are your friend

Oh it won't be long you will grow strong
Up up and away

He's but a falling leaf, he's but a falling leaf, he's but a falling leaf
