Been here, done this thread.... I needed them for another teacher for a lesson on the subject.... why is it I suspect your motives less innocent? :laugh:!! I found the link especially helpful for the project.... the teacher used "Breakin' Up is Hard To DO" (of course), Air Supply "All Outta Love," and the Mandy Moore one :D

Cry by Faith Hill
Everytime by Britney Spears
Hard to say Im sorry by Chicago
All I have by Jlo
Why did you mess with forever by John Mayer
Tell me what to say by John Mayer
Low by Kelly Clarkson
Cry me a river by justin timberlake
Never again by Justin timberlake
Pushing me away by Linkin Park
The power of goodbye by madonna
Are you happy now by Michelle Branch
Do I have to cry for you by Nick carter
Speak by Nickel creek
DOnt speak by No Doubt

Where do broken hearts go by WHitney houston

Sorry this past month has been hard so ive got a lot hope they help! SOmetimes break ups are good and you grow and really discover who you are- whetehr you still love the peson or not isnt the issue...So you still love them..its who you are without them that counts.

"Used to love her" is great on the recovery path :)
For the serious mourning I like Weezer - Say It Ain't So
And for the "it was your fault" stage, Bob Dylan - Positively Fourth Street - check the lyrics!

You think that I can't live without your love
You'll see,
You think I can't go on another day.
You think I have nothing
Without you by my side,
You'll see
Somehow, some way

You think that I can never laugh again
You'll see,
You think that you destroyed my faith in love.
You think after all you've done
I'll never find my way back home,
You'll see
Somehow, someday

You think that you are strong, but you are weak
You'll see,
It takes more strength to cry, admit defeat.
I have truth on my side,
You only have deceit
You'll see, somehow, someday

All by myself
I don't need anyone at all
I know I'll survive
I know I'll stay alive,
I'll stand on my own
I won't need anyone this time
It will be mine
No one can take it from me
You'll see

Umm...Yeah break up in about early october.....Became very ugly.....mean tings were sad..its over now and Im just single and mingling having fun and trying to find out who i am and bettering myself after this harsh time. Im sure if you asked him his side has been easy but its not big deal. I hope he finds happiness and whatever he wants in life. DOnt be sorry some of the best things in my life have happened since him and I broke up .......Academic wise, physically, emotionally, relationships with friends, family members, and guys....Im just a better person. Thanks for the concern though.

I wrote my own breakup song (acutally I have only written the first two of three verses and the chorus and the melody for everything)... I would post it, but couldn't someone theorectically take it, copyright it, and pretend they themselves made it?

Delta Goodrem - Not Me, Not I

You mixed me up for someone
Who'd fall apart without you
Yeah you broke my heart for the first time
But I'll get over that too
It's hard to find the reasons
Who can see the rhyme?
I guess that we where seasons out of time
I guess you didn't know me

If you think love is blind
That I wouldn't see the flaws between the lines
Surprised that I caught you out
On every single time that you lied
Did you think that every time I see you I would cry
No not me, not I, not I, no not me, not I

The story goes on without you
And there's got to be another ending
But yeah you broke my heart it won't be the last time
But I'll get over them too
As a new door opens we close the ones behind
And if you search your soul I know you'll find
You never really knew me

If you think love is blind
That I wouldn't see the flaws between the lines
Surprised that I caught you out
On every single time that you lied
Did you think that every time I see you I would cry
No not me, not I, not I, not I, not I

All you said to me
All you promised me
All the mystery never did believe
No I never cry no I never not me not I

If you think love is blind
That I wouldn't see the flaws between the lines
Surprised that I caught you out
On every single time that you lied
Did you think that every time I see you I would cry
No not I, I won't cry
No not me, not I, not I

delta goodrem-not me not i
its a great song that tells of a girl who loved someone with all theie heart, and then they betrayed her.

G-man
01-12-2004, 01:19 AM
LOL I'm feelin' ya' great lyrics...

Let's see I can think of a few more to add to my list...
"One Hundred Ways" by James Ingram
"Fool Of Me" by Meshell Ndegeocello ...I love Meshell too cool!

"No More" by Billie Holiday
"You ain't gonna bother me no more
No how
Love goes just so far
Woke up this morning and found I didn't care for you no more
No how
Never felt so good before
You're down to my size
It's over and done
So kindly step down from your throne..."

hehehe... good stuff there... :laugh:
Yeah, sometimes relationships are just full of too much B.S. and you just lose that feeling and don't even wanna' bother anymore with it... better to just move on.

The Breakup Song-The Greg Kihn Band

Personally though I like anything by Linkin Park 'cause even if it's not about break ups the way they make you feel just helps.

Bad time lately!!

1. HANDS DOWN- DASHBOARD CONFESSIONALS
2. The Reason- Hoobastank
3. Here without you- 3 Doors Down
4. Meant to Live- Switchefoot
5. Dare you to move- Switchfoot

FOOL AGAIN- Westlife
one of my all time favorites

Baby
I know the story,
I've seen the picture
It's written all over your face
Tell me
What's the secret
That you've been hiding
And who's gonna take my place

I should have seen it coming
I should've read the signs
Anyway...
I guess it's over

[Chorus:]
Can't believe that I'm the fool again,
I thought this love would never end
How was I to know?
You never told me,
Can't believe that I'm the fool again
And I who thought you were my friend,
How was I to know?
You never told me.

Baby
You should have called me
When you were lonely
When you needed me to be there
Sadly
You never gave me
Too many chances
To show you how much I care

I should have seen it coming
I should've read the signs
Anyway...
I guess it's over

About the pain and the tears,
oh oh oh,
If I could I would,
Turn back the time

Ooh yeah
I should've seen it coming
I should've read the signs
Anyway...
I guess it's over


All of them great songs.
Whatever happened in your life, im so sorry, i know it hurts, were all suffering, but a critical step is to move on, and its been hard for me, and i can imagine as well.

Take care everyone!
God Bless everyone!

peace out
-Jon
