Songs you listen to to get through this


Recommended Posts

So I've finally decided to stop moping around and be sad all the time.

Been listening to "Let It Be" by The Beatles constantly and then it hit me: I didn't know anymore "get over him/her or be happy songs". So I figure we could all try and create some sort of good song list.

 

I'm tired of crying at every love or breakup song that comes on the radio. This is my first step to healing.

 

Sorry if this has been done before.

"Over You" by Chris Daughtry. Every line fits my situation perfectly.

 

Yes!! Both of his cd's have been my favorite soundtrack since my breakup...there are songs for any mood, and for me, there have been a LOT of different moods since the breakup. "It's not over", "over you" and "what about now?" are all great songs for all your different moods on his 1st cd, and on the current one, "no surprise", "ghost of me" and the last song "call your name" are all fantastic (although can be depressing!).

I dunno..these aren't sad. You're looking for "not sad" right? They were on a playlist I had made while thinking about my ex..

This breakup, the song that's been the most meaningful to me is "My Skin", Natalie Merchant.

 

 

 

Maybe for me it's because it's about accepting the pain and how I'm beginning to feel atrophied emotionally. I know I'm going to be scarred for some time from this experience. I'm doing okay, but I'm realizing that part of the grieving experience is acceptance, of everything about it... the highs and lows. For me it's also that my ex is very walled off from everyone, including me, and in some ways I wish he would acknowledge the pain and suffering I'm having to face with this. He's probably too selfish to even think about it though, frankly.

 

The first three days after the breakup when I had the house to myself at night, I would keen and wail and sob, and listen to this song. It helped me, maybe it's not the most positive and uplifting song, but sometimes you have to just let out the sorrow.

Right this moment - Alicia Keys - It doesn't matter.

 

Man, she is explaining exactly how I feel this week. I wish I could write songs.

 

The opening line is about "wanting to be a millionaire"

 

I use to drive to work or anywhere thinking about winning the lotto. But since the breakup, I only think of her. I don't even think of the lotto anymore.

Enough Cryin'" Mary J. Blidge

 

[1st Verse

Cause um

The sex was good; You had my mind

And I

I let you; Come back

Every time

You would; Violate

And cross The line

And you Knew that I Would

be The type

To always

Wait so patiently

Thinkin'

You was comin'

Home to me

Well

Damn, I never heard

The keys

Or

Felt ya taps

Sayin' are

You sleep

 

 

[Chorus

Don't wanna

Play house

No more

So dumb

To think

You gon'

Marry me

I got to be out

My mind

To think I

Need someone

To carry me

I've done enough

Cryin', cryin', cryin'

(Cryin', cryin', cryin')

It's time to say

Bye, bye, bye

It's time I

Do something

For me

 

[2ND Verse

It's time

I choose

My clothes

Choose my friends

Be with my family

They been asking

Girlfriend

Where you been?

We ain't seen

You in weeks

Been chasin'

This fool around

Thinkin' he gon'

Hold me down

I would

Follow his lead

Thinkin' I would

Be the one

He keep around

What I needed

Not ya finance

And all that

I needed

Real commitment

I really couldn't see it

Not the real man

You said you would be

In this relationship

So many men

Think all

A girl needs

Is to be sold

A dream

But I won't

Fall for it
