Heard this one for the first time today........ Taylor Swift "I almost do". Says it all for me,even after nearly 7 months! Also "Since you've been gone" by Rainbow.

 

For my more positive moments....... "Blow me (one last kiss) by Pink and "So Yesterday " by Toni Braxton are great.

Not to be funny but when your heart gets ripped out, EVERY song is about you.

 

They all help one way or another all you have to do is hear the music.

 

:p

Blow me one last kiss was my best friends breakup song! Hahaha she still gets all fired up when she hears it a year later.

 

Stronger - Leighton Meester

 

 

Then two songs that are kind of uh, hopeful, that I used to like

Austin - Blake Shelton (the song is about a girl who breaks up with him and goes back to Austin. They don't talk for almost a year. When she comes back to town, she calls him up and a country song ensues)

Darius Rucker - Come Back Song (he leaves her, she gets her **** together and he realizes how bad he's messed up)

"Love-Hate-Sex-Pain"

Godsmack

 

In this life I'm me,

Just sitting here alone

By the way I tried to say I'd be there

For you

Walk the silent emptieness

That leads me by my hands

And throw away

What I don't understand, as a man

 

Love-Hate-Sex-Pain

It's complicating me sometimes

This love-Hate-Sex-Pain

it's underestimated lies

 

And I wonder as I tear away my skin

It's taken me so long to stitch

These wounds from where I've been

And mother please don't bury me

I'm begging for my life

It's hard to say that I will be complete

Before I die

 

Love-Hate-Sex-Pain

It's complicating me sometimes

This love-Hate-Sex-Pain

it's underestimated lies

 

Don't you worry please

Don't you leave me

Because I surely slip away

Though love, hate, sex, and pain

I fall away into

Love, hate sex, and pain

 

Love-Hate-Sex-Pain

It's complicating me sometimes

This love-Hate-Sex-Pain

it's underestimated lies

 

Love-Hate-Sex-Pain

It's complicating me sometimes

This love-Hate-Sex-Pain

it's underestimated lies

"Wicked Game"

 

The world was on fire and no one could save me but you.

It's strange what desire will make foolish people do.

I never dreamed that I'd meet somebody like you.

And I never dreamed that I'd lose somebody like you.

 

No, I don't want to fall in love (This world is only gonna break your heart)

No, I don't want to fall in love (This world is only gonna break your heart)

With you (This world is only gonna break your heart)

 

What a wicked game to play, to make me feel this way.

What a wicked thing to do, to let me dream of you.

What a wicked thing to say, you never felt this way.

What a wicked thing to do, to make me dream of you and,

 

I want to fall in love (This world is only gonna break your heart)

No, I want to fall in love (This world is only gonna break your heart)

With you.

 

The world was on fire and no one could save me but you.

It's strange what desire will make foolish people do.

I never dreamed that I'd love somebody like you.

And I never dreamed that I'd lose somebody like you,

 

No, I want to fall in love (This world is only gonna break your heart)

No, I want to fall in love (This world is only gonna break your heart)

With you (This world is only gonna break your heart)

No, I... (This world is only gonna break your heart)

(This world is only gonna break your heart)

 

Nobody loves no one.

one of my favorites lately is "sum 41 - Crash"

 

Sum 41 - What am i to say

 

 

Sum 41 - Back where i belong

 

If you're familiar with Sum 41 at all they came out with an album called "screaming bloody murder" and pretty much every song on that album can relate to a break up in some way shape or form i love that album.

although i do try and stay away from most depressing songs because they just make me think about her way too much :(

 

others are "Blink- 182 - Always"

"Blink-182 - i miss you"

"blink-182- what went wrong (one of my favorites)"

"blink-182 - Dammit"

"Blink-182 - I'm lost without you"

"Blink-182 - Down"

"Angels & Airwaves- Do it for me now (has some of my favorite lyrics in this song

I've really had it with the rain of the tears

The predictable storm that has come every year

And it sneaks in from shore with a bat in it's hand

I'm trying I'm trying I'm trying I'm trying I can't

You're a thief and a witch but I love you to death

You steal my heart and curse under your breath

But the one thing that I can most willingly prove

That when you are gone I'll be fine without you"

 

"Boxcar Racer - Cat Like thief"

"Breaking Benjamin - Forget it"

"Anberlin - Paperthin Hymn"

"William Fitzsimmons - So this is goodbye"

"Passenger - Let her go"

"Damien rice - Fool"

"Damien Rice - Prague"

"Rise Against - Everchanging"

"Damien Rice - Cheers Darlin'" (if you've never heard of Damien Rice listen to just one of his songs almost all his songs will connect to you with a break up)

"The All American Rejects - Heartbeat slowing down"

"Linkin Park - In Pieces"

"Weezer - I Don't Want to let you go"

"The Black Keys- Too afraid to love you"

"Jimmy Eat World - 23"

 

And thats all i got for now, hope some of those help :)
