What's your break up song?


Recommended Posts

this one comes to mind.. NiN

 

I still recall the taste of your tears

Echoing your voice just like the ringing in my ears

My favorite dreams of you still wash ashore

Scraping through my head 'till I don't want to sleep

Anymore

 

You make this all go away

You make this all go away

I'm down to just one thing

And i'm starting to scare myself

You make this all go away

You make this all go way

I just want something

I just want something I can never have

 

You always were the one to show me how

Back then I couldn't do the things that I can do now

This thing is slowly taking me apart

Gray would be the colour if I had a heart

Come on, tell me

 

You make this all go away

You make this all go away

I'm down to just one thing

And I'm starting to scare myself

You make this all go away

You make this all go away

I just want something

I just want something I can never have

 

In this place it seems like such a shame

Though it all looks different now

I know it's still the same

Everywhere I look you're all I see

Just a fading ****ing reminder of who I used to be

Come on, tell me!

 

You make this all go away

You make this all go away

I'm down to just one thing

And i'm starting to scare myself

You make this all go away

You make it all go way

I just want something

I just want something I can never have

I just want something I can never have

Oh yes... in the weeks after my break-up I was reading an online review of the re-released Pretty Hate Machine and was thinking about "Something I Can Never Have"...

 

I can hardly listen to music anymore right now. Just about everything on my mp3 player I listened to when thinking about my ex when we were going out... so many songs I associate with "us". I don't want to be reminded of her, so now I've actually moved all my old music off it into storage, and just listen to podcasts and any new music I download.

Cee Lo Green's song has been my mantra!! Don't worry about Britney, I downloaded Christina Aguilera's Fighter the other day and was REALLY feeling it, lol!

Ha, its weird that when you hear a song which you associate with how you feel you can't stop listening to it! Its like whoever is singing is going through exactly same pain as you are. Mine was

'Candy' by Paolo Nutini

, listened to this constantly, isn't too depressing and has a nice uplifting end to it and the lyrics are about losing the spark in a relationship, which is what happened with my ex

Karma-Alicia Keys

 

 

Weren't you the one who said that you don't want me anymore

And how you need your space and give the keys back to your door

And how I cried and tried and tried to make you stay with me

And still you said your love was gone and that I had to leave

Now you're Talking bout a family

Now you're saying I complete your dreams

Oh

Now you're sayin I'm your everything

You're confusing me

What you saying to me, don't play wit me, don't play wit me

Cause....

 

[Chorus:]

What goes around comes around

What goes up must come down

Now who's cryin', desirin' to come back to me

What goes around comes around

What goes up must come down

Now who's cryin, desirin', to come back

 

I remember when I was sittin home alone

Waitin for you til 3 o'clock in the 'morn

And when you came home you'd always have some sorry excuse

Half explaining to me like I'm just some kind of a fool

I sacrificed the things I wanted just to do things for you

But when it's time to do for me

You never come thru

Now you wanna be up under me

Now you have so much to say to me

Now you wanna make time for me

Whatcha doin to me, you're confusin me

Don't play with me don't play with me cause

 

[Repeat Chorus 2x]

 

I remember when I was sittin home alone

Waitin for you till 3 o'clock in the 'morn

Night after night knowing something goin on

Wasn't long before I be gone

Lord knows it wasn't easy believe me

Never thought you'd be the one that would deceive me

And never do what you're supposed to do

No need to approach me fool, cuz I'm over you

 

[Repeat Chorus]

 

Gotta stop trying to come back to me

 

[Repeat Chorus]

 

It's called Karma baby and it goes around

Oh my Godddddd!!! This is my break-up song - Forever As One by The Vengaboys. It really relates to me. Sniff.:(

 

Forever As One lyrics

I wish I could turn back time

I wish I'd never have to see that look in your eyes

You really broke this heart of mine

Now it's time to realise it's forever goodbye

 

So here I am

All alone

Don't understand where did we go wrong

I can't stop crying

Can't take the pain

Knowing you won't ever be back again

 

And it cuts like a knife

I'm going insane

Wishing you would show me love

Once again

I'm losing my mind

But I have to carry on

We were meant to be together

Forever as one

 

So this is where the story ends

Gonna take some to dry the tears in my eyes

You told me we could still be friends

Now I know your promises were nothing but lies

 

So here

I am All alone

Don't understand where did we go wrong

I can't stop crying

Can't take the pain

Knowing you won't ever be back again

 

And it cuts like a knife

I'm going insane

Wishing you would show me love

Once again

I'm losing my mind

But I have to carry on

We were meant to be together

Forever as one

Wow, so hard to say.

For my current Break Up it's Taylor Swift - Back to December, cuz all of the lyrics fit my ex's relationship and I mean to a tee, I don;t even listen to her music but the song came on the radio one day.. it sucks which is why I don't listen to the radio anymore lol.

 

My first serious breakup its the song she put on her myspace after we broke up

Midnight hour - Running Away, damn that song stung..

 

Mine right now though is

The Man Who Can't Be Moved by The Script *sigh* and I just learned how to play it on guitar too..

The music video is really nice if any of you guys wanna watch it.

Just wanted to say thanks for the songs......I've never been one to turn to music through a break up.......it was truly an awakening, and helped me to realize that I'm not alone......

 

.......and now I want "I'm moving on" songs!!!

Impossible - Shontelle

 

...Falling out of love is hard

Falling for betrayal is worst

Broken trust and broken hearts

I know, I know

Thinking all you need is there

Building faith on love is worst

Empty promises will wear

I know (i know)

And know when all is gone

There is nothing to say

And if you're done with embarrassing me

On your own you can go ahead tell them

 

Tell them all I know now

Shout it from the roof top

Write it on the skyline

All we had is gone now

Tell them I was happy

And my heart is broken

All my scars are open

Tell them what I hoped would be

Impossible, impossible

Impossible, impossible...

 

 

Big Girls Don't Cry - Fergie

 

...I hope you know,

I hope you know

That this has nothing to do with you

It's personal, myself and I

We've got some straightening out to do

And I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket

But I've gotta get a move on with my life.

It's time to be a big girl now

And big girls don't cry...

"Hit the Road, Jack" by Ray Charles

 

And that song by Fats Domino that goes:

I'm gonna be a wheel someday

I'm gonna be somebody

I'm gonna be a real gone cat

Then I won't want you.

God Bless the Broken Road -- Rascal Flatts

 

 

I'm not a country fan at all, but this song is amazing and the message is great. It's been helping me through what I'm going through...gives you hope for a better future. "And others who broke my heart, they were like northern stars...pointing me on my way, into your loving arms...this much I know is true, god bless the broken road that led me straight to you"

Call it Karma -- Silverstein

 

 

"You are the fire on my apartment floor, 16 stories, I'd rather burn then fall. And it isn't fate that took us all by storm, it's just the turn of a card"
