Can anyone identify this plant?

This plant seems to have invaded my garden the last few years. I don't think I planted it myself, but anything's possible... and it keeps coming back like a weed when I pull it out. It seems very persistent.

Thanks!

    It's a peony. Leave it be, give it a little fertilizer, and you'll be rewarded with gorgeous foliage and big, colorful flowers year after year!

    If it's NOT a peony, I'm registering a vote for bleeding hearts. And agreed, leave it be and you will have lovely flowers.

    The other nice thing about both of these plants is that since they sprout from the ground every spring, you can cut off any dead material in summertime without guilt...you're not hurting a thing.
