metal/rock break up songs


Recommended Posts

I have been a member of this site for about a week and couldn't find a post about this, but if U have read my few posts, I said I was gonna find some metal/rock songs about breaking up and all of the "things" that go along with it. I have found a couple of songs so far. Hopefully people will add more in the future. OK, so here's what I got so far

1: Avenged Sevenfold - "Afterlife." This song can be taken for face value of a man that dies and goes to heaven to early, but I feel he is talking about a relationship that is "too perfect" and has to get out of it. Kind of like my relationship.

2: Avenged Sevenfold - "Almost Easy." About a guy realizing its over and kind of wants her back.

3: Metallica - "Nothing Else Matters." This is actually a love song, but I love it so I put it on the list.

4: New Found Glory - "Forget Everything." Kind of "an bitter at my ex" type song, but pretty good.

5: Rancid - "Fall Back Down." Interpret it ur own way.

 

That's all I got right now, but there are a million+ more, so if anyone else has anymore, please add them. I will add them as I find them. I probably know a thousand more that I can't think of right now, but will add them soon. So keep on, keepin' on.

Please try to keep these somewhat rock/metal songs for the metal/rock heads. Thanx

Estranged, November Rain, Don't Cry, Breakdown, 14 Years... obviously a lot of others by Guns N' Roses, if you're a fan.

 

Poison - Every Rose Has Its Thorn

 

Louis Armstrong - What a Wonderful World... made me bawl like a week after we broke up. Not a rock song though.

 

Goo Goo Dolls - Iris.

 

Blind Melon - No Rain... "so stay with me and I'll have it made". Light/pop rock

So Far Away-Staind

No one - Cold

 

Purity -Slipknot {about a guy who buried his girlfriend alive, from her perspective - a reminder that things could always be worse}

Not to be an a-hole, but "betrayed" by A7X was about Dimebag Darrell from Pantera. It is an awesome song, but if u have ur own meaning to it, then more power to u. But then again songs are what u make of them.

Bullet for my Valentine - Forever and Always - I know its more of a love song, than break up song but I love it. The metal version, not the acoustic version.
