I absolutely love this song. The first time I heard it, I didn't think much of it, but after a few listens I really got how hauntingly beautiful it is.
Honestly, to me it just feels like a woman trying to make it against seemingly insurmountable opposition. She's not the best person ever, and she could easily be overlooked, but she has substance. She's trying to accomplish something, but it keeps getting more complicated. She would love to be rescued from the situation, but I feel like she knows no one is going to do that for her, so she carries on. And I feel like "Jesus Pieces" must be sort of like some kind of exclamation. Like, "Jesus pieces! I stubbed my toe!" ...except not exactly.
