[Refrain]
(I'm in pieces, bits and pieces)
(I'm in pieces, bits and pieces)

[Verse 1]
Since you left me and you said goodbye
(I'm in pieces, bits and pieces)
All I do is sit and cry
(I'm in pieces, bits and pieces)
You went away and left me misery
(I'm in pieces, bits and pieces)
That's the way it'll always be

[Refrain]
(I'm in pieces, bits and pieces)
(I'm in pieces, bits and pieces)

[Verse 2]
You said you loved me and you'd always be mine
(I'm in pieces, bits and pieces)
We'd be together 'til the end of time
(I'm in pieces, bits and pieces)
Now you say it was just a game
(I'm in pieces, bits and pieces)
Well, all you're doin' is leavin' me pain

[Bridge]
Time goes by, it goes so slow, oh yeah
('Tll you start to see it too)
Only just a few days ago
You said you loved me and it made me blue

[Refrain]
(I'm in pieces, bits and pieces)
(I'm in pieces, bits and pieces)

[Verse 3]
Now you're gone and I'm all alone
(I'm in pieces, bits and pieces)
You're still way up there on your throne
(I'm in pieces, bits and pieces)
Nothin' seems to ever go right
(I'm in pieces, bits and pieces)
Night is day and day is night

Joan Jett & The Blackhearts

After splitting with The Runaways, and releasing her first solo album, Joan Jett placed an ad in LA Weekly looking for bandmates. Gary Ryan, Eric Ambel, and Danny “Furious” O'Brien joined her, creating the orginial Blackhearts lineup.

After their initial tour though, O'Brien was replaced with Lee Crystal.

Early on, keeping the band afloat was not easy. Joan and producer Kenny Laguna struggled, sometimes selling copies of albums from the trunk of his car. Eventually unable to keep up with the demand for Joan Jett’s album, they signed with Boardwalk Records.
