I've been listening to "you give love a bad name" by Bon Jovi because

 

a) The start of the song cracks me up (Shot through the heaaaart...)

b) The lyrics are actually so appropriate in my situation...(my ex does give love a bad name) and...

c) i get to play air guitar in my living room when Richie plays his solo... what more do i need?

I hurt myself today

To see if I still feel

I focus on the pain

The only thing that's real

The needle tears a hole

The old familiar sting

Try to kill it all away

But I remember everything

 

What have I become?

My sweetest friend

Everyone I know

Goes away in the end

You could have it all

My empire of dirt

I will let you down

I will make you hurt

 

I wear this crown of ****

Upon my liar's chair

Full of broken thoughts

I cannot repair

Beneath the stains of time

The feelings disappear

You are someone else

I am still right here

 

What have I become?

My sweetest friend

Everyone I know

Goes away in the end

 

You could have it all

My empire of dirt

I will let you down

I will make you hurt

If I could start again

A million miles away

I would keep myself

I would find a way

 

...as sang by Kermitt

Sinead O'Connor - Nothing Compares to you

 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eN0ssW0YBwM

 

It's been seven hours and fifteen days

since you took your love away

I go out every night and sleep all day

since you took your love away

since you've been gone I can do whatever I want

I can see whomever I choose

I can eat my dinner in a fancy restaurant

but nothing

I said nothing can take away these blues,

 

'cause nothing compares

nothing compares to you

 

It's been so lonely without you here

like a bird without a song

nothing can stop these lonely tears from falling

tell me baby where did I go wrong?

I could put my arms round every boy I see

but they'd only remind me of you

I went to the doctor guess what he told me

guess what he told me

he said girl you better try to have fun

no matter what you do

but he's a fool

 

'cause nothing compares

nothing compares to you

 

All the flowers that you planted mother

in the backyard

all died when you went away

I know that living with you, baby, was sometimes hard

but I'm willing to give it another try

 

nothing compares

nothing compares to you (3x)

don't know if it was mentioned, but:

 

Coldplay - The Scientist.

 

 

Come up to meet you,

Tell you I'm sorry,

You don't know how lovely you are.

 

I had to find you,

Tell you I need you,

Tell you I set you apart.

 

Tell me your secrets,

And ask me your questions,

Oh let's go back to the start.

 

Runnin' in circles,

Comin' up tails,

Heads on the science apart.

 

Nobody said it was easy,

It's such a shame for us to part.

Nobody said it was easy,

No one ever said it would be so hard.

Oh take me back to the start.

 

I was just guessin',

At numbers and figures,

 

Pullin' the puzzles apart.

 

Questions of science,

Science and progress,

Do not speak as loud as my heart.

 

Tell me you love me,

Come back and haunt me,

Oh on I rush to the start.

 

Runnin' in circles,

Chasin' our tails,

Comin' back as we are.

 

Nobody said it was easy,

Oh it's such a shame for us to part.

Nobody said it was easy,

No one ever said it would be so hard.

I'm goin' back to the start.

Never There - Hoobastank

 

I'm filling up inside like I need to open wide and pour my heart out to you

But I'll just get denied and all I wanted was someone to hear what I'm going through

 

Every time that I need you around, you're never there, you're never there

Because in my life is where I need you but now you're never there, you're never there

 

You were supposed to see all the signs I left right in front of your face

You were supposed to be the closest thing to being me but you're the furthest away

That's because

 

Everytime that I need you around, you're never there, you're never there

Because in my life is where I need you but now you're never there, you're never there

 

And I doubt that I will ever find out, if there's a way to get out, of feeling all alone

'Cause lately, I've been thinking maybe, that no one's gonna save me

I'll do it on my own

 

Everytime that I need you around, you're never there, you're never there

Because in my life is where I need you but now you're never there, you're never there

MY HAPPY ENDING - Avril Lavigne

 

 

 

Lets talk this over, it's not like were dead

Was it something I did? Was it something you said?

Don't leave me hanging, in a city so dead

Held up so high, on such a breakable tread

 

You were all the things I thought I knew

And I thought that we could be

 

Chorus:

You were everything, everything that I wanted

We were meant to be, supposed to be, but we lost it

All of the memories so close to me just fade away

All this time you were pretending

So much for my happy ending

 

Oh, oh

So Much for my happy ending

 

Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh

 

You've got your dumb friends, I know what they say

They tell you I'm difficult, but so are they

But they don't know me, do they even know you?

All the things you hide from me, all the **** that you do

 

You were all the things I thought I knew

And I thought that we could be

 

Chorus:

You were everything, everything that I wanted

We were meant to be, supposed to be, but we lost it

All of the memories so close to me just fade away

All this time you were pretending

So much for my happy ending

 

It's nice to know that you were there,

Thanks for actin' like you cared

And makin' me feel like I was the only one

 

It's nice to know we had it all

Thanks for watchin' as I fall

And lettin' me know we were done

 

He was everything, everything that I wanted

We were meant to be, supposed to be, but we lost it

All of the memories so close to me just fade away

All this time you were pretending

So much for my happy ending

 

Chorus:

You were everything, everything that I wanted

We were meant to be, supposed to be, but we lost it

All of the memories so close to me just fade away

All this time you were pretending

So much for my happy ending

 

Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh

So Much for my happy ending

 

Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh

So Much for my happy ending

Loveshackers i urge you to listen to a song by a UK artist called James Blunt. The song is called 'Goodbye my lover'.....if you have just been dumped (like me) and you still love your partner (like me) this song is perfect, it says everything your feeling, perfect if you want a good cry and strangly great to listen to if you're feeling strong. Download it please and see what im on about!

 

Its my favourite...but hey thats just my opinion xxx

Me again.... here are the lyrics for James Blunt Goodbye my lover...

 

 

Did I disappoint you or let you down?

Should I be feeling guilty or let the judges frown?

'Cause I saw the end before we'd begun,

Yes I saw you were blinded and I knew I had won.

So I took what's mine by eternal right.

Took your soul out into the night.

It may be over but it won't stop there,

I am here for you if you'd only care.

You touched my heart you touched my soul.

You changed my life and all my goals.

And love is blind and that I knew when,

My heart was blinded by you.

I've kissed your lips and held your head.

Shared your dreams and shared your bed.

I know you well, I know your smell.

I've been addicted to you.

 

Goodbye my lover.

Goodbye my friend.

You have been the one.

You have been the one for me.

 

I am a dreamer but when I wake,

You can't break my spirit - it's my dreams you take.

And as you move on, remember me,

Remember us and all we used to be

I've seen you cry, I've seen you smile.

I've watched you sleeping for a while.

I'd be the father of your child.

I'd spend a lifetime with you.

I know your fears and you know mine.

We've had our doubts but now we're fine,

And I love you, I swear that's true.

I cannot live without you.

 

Goodbye my lover.

Goodbye my friend.

You have been the one.

You have been the one for me.

 

And I still hold your hand in mine.

In mine when I'm asleep.

And I will bear my soul in time,

When I'm kneeling at your feet.

Goodbye my lover.

Goodbye my friend.

You have been the one.

You have been the one for me.

I'm so hollow, baby, I'm so hollow.

I'm so, I'm so, I'm so hollow.

Seriously, I would love if everyone would go check out the band City and Colour. Most of their songs are about break up and the feelings afterwards and Dallas Green has the most amazing voice Ive ever heard. Here is the lyrics to one of many great songs.

 

 

"Comin' Home"

 

Well I've been down to Georgia

I've seen the streets in the West

I've driven down the 90, hell I've seen America's best

I've been through the Rockies, I've seen Saskatoon

I've driven down the highway 1 just hopin' that I'd see you soon

 

Cause I'm comin' home, I'm comin' home

 

I've never been to Alaska, but I can tell you this,

I've been to Lincoln, Nebraska and hell you know it ain't worth ****

I've been through Nova Scotia, Sydney to Halifax

I'll never take any pictures cause I know I'll just be right back

 

Cause I'm comin' home, I'm comin' home

 

I've seen a palace in London, I've seen a castle in Wales

but I'd rather wake up beside you and breathe that ol' familiar smell

I never thought you could leave me, I figured I was the one

but I understand your sadness so I guess I should just hold my tongue

 

But I'm comin' home, I'm comin' home

 

I know that we're takin' chances, you told me life was a risk

but I just have one last question...

will it be my heart or will it be his?

 

I'm comin' home

Forget It-Breaking Benjamin

 

it's a crime

you let it happen to me

never mind

I let it happen to you

I don't mind forget it

there's nothing to lose

but my mind and all the things I wanted

 

everytime I get it

throw it away

it's a sign I get it

I wanna stay

by the time I lose it

I'm not afraid

I'm alive

but I can surely fake it

 

how can I believe

when this cloud hangs over me

you're the part of me

that I don't wanna see

forget it (x14)

 

there's a place

I see you following me

just a taste

of all that might come to be

I'm alone

but holding breath you can breathe

to question every

answer counted

 

just fade away

please let me stay

caught in your way

forget it, forget it

 

just fade away

please let me stay

caught in your way

forget it

 

it's a crime you let it happen to me

I don't mind

I love it easy to please

never mind

forget it

just memory

on a page inside a spiral notebook

 

just fade away

please let me stay

caught in your way

I can live forever here

 

Just fade away

please let me stay

caught in your way

I can live forever here

 

how can I believe

when this cloud hangs over me

you're the part of me

that I don't wanna see

forget it, forget it

 

I can live forever here

 

Think this is a great song to for the broken hearted to move on...

The Reason - Hoobastank

I'm not a perfect person, there are many things I wish I didn't do

But I continue learning, I never meant to do those things to you

And so I have to say before I go, that I just want you to know

 

I've found a reason for me, to change who I used to be

A reason to start over new, and the reason is you

 

I'm sorry that I hurt you, it's something I must live with every day

And all the pain I put you through, I wish that I could take it all away

And be the one who catches all your tears, that's why I need you to hear

 

I've found a reason for me, to change who I used to be

A reason to start over new, and the reason is you

 

I'm not a perfect person, I never meant to do those things to you

And so I have to say before I go, that I just want you to know

 

I've found a reason for me, to change who I used to be

A reason to start over new, and the reason is you

I've found a reason to show, a side of me you don't know

A reason for all that I do, and the reason is you
