Favorite Lines:
You’ve got your dumb friends
I know what they say

All the shit that you do - #9 – Don’t Bother by Shakira

Don’t feel sorry - #8 – Get Out (Leave) – JoJo
Favorite Lines:
Get Out (leave) right now,
it’s the end of you and me,
It’s too late (now) and I cant wait for you to be gone,
cause I know about her, (who) and I wonder (why),
how I bought all the lies.
You said that you would treat me right
but you was just a waste of time. (waste of time) - #7 – Ain’t It Funny – Jennifer Lopez
Favorite Lines:
It’s been awhile since you came around
Now ya wanna see what’s goin’ down

Now I’m seein’ that you’re kinda lame
Knowin how the situation change - #6 – Not Goin’ Cry – Mary J. Blige
Favorite Lines:
I was your lover and your secretary
Working every day of the week
Was at the job when no one else was there

Swallowed my fears, stood by your side
I shoulda left your ass a thousand times - #5 – Over It – Katharine McPhee
Favorite Lines:
Movin’ on, it’s my time
You never were a friend of mine
Hurt at first, a little bit
But now I’m so over
So over it

Favorite Lines:
Thought I couldn’t breathe without you,
I’m inhalin’
You thought I couldn’t see without you,
Perfect vision,
You thought I couldn’t last without ya,
But I’m lastin’
You thought that I would die without ya,
But I’m livin’
Thought that I would fail without ya,
But I’m on top,
Though it would be over by now,
But it won’t stop,
You thought that I would self-destruct,
But I’m still here,
Even in my years to come,
I’m still gon’ be here. - #3 – Irreplaceable – Beyonce
Favorite Lines:
So since I’m not your everything

Replacing you is so easy - #2 – Since U Been Gone – Kelly Clarkson
Favorite Lines:
You had your chance, you blew it
Out of sight, out of mind
Shut your mouth, I just can’t take it
Again and again and again and again
But since you been gone
I can breathe for the first time
I’m so movin’ on, yeah, yeah
Thanks to you, now I get, I get what I want
Since you been gone - #1 – I Will Survive – Gloria Gaynor
Favorite Lines:
Go on now go walk out the door
just turn around now
’cause you’re not welcome anymore
weren’t you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye
you think I’d crumble
you think I’d lay down and die
Oh no, not I
I will survive

I’ll bet no one has ever heard of this one, but in college, it was my sorority sisters’ and my favorite- ” Another Dumb Blonde” by Hoku
Memorable Lines:That’s alright that ok you never loved me anyway
and I think it’s time for you to just move on
That’s alright(That’s alright)That’s ok(That’s ok)

That i think it’s time for you to find another dumb blond
‘Cause it’s not me no no ‘Cause it’s not me no no oh no.

Goin through a break up… thought I’d share a few of my personal faves right now…
I Can Do Better – Avril Lavigne
Favourite Lines:
I couldn’t give a damn what you say to me
I don’t really care what you think of me
Cause either way your gunna think what you believe
There’s nothing you could say that would hurt me
I’m better off without you anyway
I thought it would be hard but I’m okay
I don’t need you if your gunna be that way
Cause with me its all or nothingI’m sick of this shit, don’t deny, your a waste of time
I’m sick of this shit don’t ask why
I hate you now, so go away from me
Your gone, so long
I can do better, I can do better
Hey, hey you – I found myself again that’s why
You’re gone
I can do better, I can do better———————————————
Never Again – Kelly ClarksonFavourite Lines:
I hope the ring you gave to her turns her finger green
I hope when your in bed with her, you think of me

Never again will I fall to you
Never
Never again will I kiss you
Never again will I want to
Never again will I love you
Never

I LOVE the song “Rootless Tree” By Damien Rice.
Fave lines:
Fuck you, fuck you, fuck you
and all we’ve been through.
I said leave it, leave it, leave it,
There’s nothing in you.
And if you hate me, hate me, hate me, hate me so good
then you can let me out
let me out, let me out
of this hell when you’re around.
Let me out, let me out, let me out.
Hell when you’re around.
Let me out, let me out, let me out.

You’ll think of me by Keith Urban..
Lines:Someday I’m gonna run across your mind
Don’t worry, I’ll be fine
I’m gonna be alright
While you’re sleeping with your pride
Wishing I could hold you tight
I’ll be over you
And on with my life

Its no doubt that No Doubt has some of the best songs be it happy or sad. But definitely 2 of the best for break ups are
1. Dont Speak
A few of the beginning lyrics…You and me
We used to be together
Everyday together always
I really feel
That I’m losing my best friend
I can’t believe
This could be the end
It looks as though you’re letting go
And if it’s real
Well I don’t want to knowDon’t speak
I know just what you’re saying
So please stop explaining
Don’t tell me cause it hurts
Don’t speak
I know what you’re thinking
I don’t need your reasons
Don’t tell me cause it hurts2. End It on This
A few of the lyrics from that song…
You see in the pastI had a dream
A fantasy
I thought that we would last
Become a little family
Then one, two, three, four
The years were flying by
They soared
And its my gut feeling
Its not happening for me, so…Lets end it on this
Give me one more kiss
Lets end it on this
Lets end it on thisYou see its hard to face
The addict thats inside of me
I want to fill my glass up
With you constantly
Ive been here before
But Ive never ever felt this sure
And now I know Ive been dreaming
And your actions
Have inspired me, so…Lets end it on this
Give me one more kiss (its over)
Lets end it on this
Lets end it on this (its over)
Just one more wish
One last kiss (its over)
Lets end it on this
Lets end it on thisI open up, you ignore me
Oh youre not the same at all no
And if I turn back
The pages of time
Id rewrite your point of view uh huhGood luck to all. I really think it helps listening to music. Me and my boyfriend just broke up last night. I was more prepared this time around. This is the 2nd time i have gotten my heart broken. This first time I had no idea what I was in for. The pain hurt so bad and i never thought it would go away. Here I am 2 years later with my heartbroken again. But I am trying to look at the brightside. I never thought I would love again after the first heartbreak and I did. Also, this time around I know what to expect. People that have never had thier heart broken are lucky but also I am glad that first one is over and done with because it does get easier the second time around. I kind of know how long the pain will last and what I should do to make this feel better. Its so tough. Any words of advice from anyone out there with a broken heart too??

Okay, I read this TWO YEARS too late! My favorite getting over a break-up song is Ani Difranco’s Untouchable Face. I wont type in the lyrics cause I’m uncomfy using the F-word on a blog that’s not mine (I know (and most readers and) you’re not offended and all, but its a concept) here they go anyway:

“Bulimic” – “The Used.”
“I’m about to see a million things I thought I’d never seen before,
And I…I’m about to do all of the things I dreamed of and
I don’t even miss you at all!
(Fuck you!)Goodbye to you,
Goodbye to you.
You’re taking up my time!”“Smile” – “Lily Allen.”
“At first when I see you cry,
yeah it makes me smile, yeah it makes my smile
At worst I feel bad for a while,
but then I just smile I go ahead and smile.”“The Preyingmantis” – “Porcelain And The Tramps.”
“I hung you on a limb
Made you bend over
Backwards on a sin
Quit crying on my shoulder
There’s nothing left to say
We’re beautiful garbage
Throw it all away
Wash you off in the shower”“I Hate Everything About You” – “Three Days Grace.”
“Only when I stop to think about it
I hate everything about you
Why do I love you?
I hate everything about you
Why do I love you?”“Let It Die” – “Three days grace.”
“We had fire in our eyes
In the beginning I
Never felt so alive
In the beginning you
You blame me but
It’s not fair when you say that I didn’t try
I just don’t want to hear it anymoreI swear I never meant to let it die
I just don’t care about you anymore
It’s not fair when you say that I didn’t try
I just don’t care about you anymore”

I would just like to say that some ex’s break up with people for good reasons or they are ex’s but not because they cheated but because they have stuff to work out themselves so before you go and get mad at someone for breaking up with you make sure you know why a favorite song of mine would have to be pain by three days grace

I Look So Good Without You – Jesse James
Pretty Wings – Maxwell
Time will bring the real end of our trial
One day they’ll be no remnants
No trace, no residual feelings within ya
One day you won’t remember meOh you played me dirty, your game was so bad
You toyed with my affliction
Had to fill out my prescription
Found the remedy, I had to set you free
Away from meTo see clearly the way that love can be
When you are not with me
I had to leave, I have to live
I had to lead, I had to live
