I'm So Sick - by Flyleaf

This song came across my mind today partially because I literally feel sick (but it's only allergies...).
Flyleaf is from Temple, TX.  They originated in 2000 as Listen, & then changed to Passerby - they independently released 2 EP's ("Broken Wings" [2002] - which also had a special edition release - & self-titled [2003]) under that name.  Then they signed to Octone Records (Paper Tongues, Maroon 5, …) in Jan. of 2004, & changed their name to Flyleaf, releasing their first EP, self-titled, later that year.  Oct. 2005 saw the release of the hit & self-titled LP, which reached high into the charts.  Tours ensued, & the music video for this song even made it into the 2007 movie "Live Free or Die Hard".  A couple of EP's later - including a Connect Sets EP - & "Memento Mori" was released - on Nov. 10th, 2009.  The title is a Latin phrase, meaning 'be mindful of death'; it made it to #1 on Billboard's Hard Rock Albums chart.  They've since released "Remember to Live EP" in 2010.  This song is from "Flyleaf" - the LP.
