love this

Have you ever thought about what protects our hearts?
Just a cage of rib bones and other various parts.
So it's fairly simple to cut right through the mess,
And to stop the muscle that makes us confess.

And we are so fragile,
And our cracking bones make noise,
And we are just,
Breakable, breakable, breakable girls and boys.

-Breakable by Ingrid Michaelson

So insightful..Recommend you listen to her songs, she's amazing..All her songs are awesome, with really meaningful lyrics, nice clean voice. I like, The Chain, which is very floaty. Lady In Spain has quirky lyrics. So do Men of Snow, which is not just about of snowmen. Incredible Love is quite classic, like a song you'll hear in a cafe. The Way I Am is so sweet. And of course Breakable is just so true..I Wikipedia-ed her, and apparently there are 8 of her songs featured on Grey's Anatomy. Her voice reminds me of Lenka, but her melodies are less quirky, arrangement is more classic. Sometimes her more acoustic pieces are like Colbie Caillat's, but a little more upbeat. Her lyrics are soooo good. She uses a lot of metaphors, and she rhymes most of them! Wonder why I haven't heard her earlier..She's been around for awhile, 3 albums already. I don't think I'll tire of her music anytime soon. She's just good la..XP
