heartbreak songs

Hey guys I need some help,
I'm having a hard time getting over this guy so I decided the best way to aid my heartbreak is to make a burned cd of heartbreak and getting over you songs so if you all could give me some suggestions, I would love you all much.
Thanks
Amber

If you hate the guy might I suggest a little ditty called "This Bitter Pill" by Dashboard Confessional. It goes a little something like this...

Quote:

Walking away.
It's not the same as running.
Is it to you know that you've run in this ground.
And you say take this.
This medicine is just what you deserve.
Swallow, choke, and die. (my favorite lines...)

And this bitter pill is leaving you with such an angry mouth.
One that's void of all discretion such an awful tearing sound.
With it's measure only equal by the power of my stare
glaring over you and over you
this feeling of despair is never wearing out.

It's wearing off
and it's leaving you with such a heavy heart
and a head to match.
The bottle is waiting
the cap is twisted begging to be used
and so are you.

If you still love the guy there's "Days" by the KINKS.

"Days

Lyrics:

Thank you for the days,
Those endless days, those sacred days you gave me.
I'm thinking of the days,
I won't forget a single day, believe me.

I bless the light,
I bless the light that lights on you believe me.
And though you're gone,
You're with me every single day, believe me.

Days I'll remember all my life,
Days when you can't see wrong from right.
You took my life,
But then I knew that very soon you'd leave me,
But it's all right,
Now I'm not frightened of this world, believe me.

I wish today could be tomorrow,
The night is dark,
It just brings sorrow anyway.

Thank you for the days,
Those endless days, those sacred days you gave me.
I'm thinking of the days,
I won't forget a single day, believe me.

Days I'll remember all my life,
Days when you can't see wrong from right.
You took my life,
But then I knew that very soon you'd leave me,
But it's all right,
Now I'm not frightened of this world, believe me.
Days.

Thank you for the days,
Those endless days, those sacred days you gave me.
I'm thinking of the days,
I won't forget a single day, believe me.

I bless the light,
I bless the light that shines on you believe me.
And though you're gone,
You're with me every single day, believe me.
Days."

he wrote it under similar circumstances

Michelle Branch's Goodbye to You

"Goodbye To You"

Of all the things I've believed in
I just want to get it over with
Tears form behind my eyes
But I do not cry
Counting the days that pass me by

I've been searching deep down in my soul
Words that I'm hearing are starting to get old
It feels like I'm starting all over again
The last three years were just pretend
And I said,

[Chorus:]
Goodbye to you
Goodbye to everything that I knew
You were the one I loved
The one thing that I tried to hold on to
The one thing that I tried to hold on to

I still get lost in your eyes
And it seems that I can't live a day without you
Closing my eyes and you chase my thoughts away
To a place where I am blinded by the light
But it's not right

[Chorus]

And it hurts to want everything and nothing at the same time
I want what's yours and I want what's mine
I want you
But I'm not giving in this time

[Chorus x2]

And when the stars fall
I will lie awake
You're my shooting star

or start listening to some of Chopin's nocturnes

Gonna get a lot of boos, Limp Bizkit - Nookie helped me out though. Course, it was a really messy situation, so might not be the song for you ;)

Just about anything from Cinderella...those guys had some tough love lives from the sounds of their songs!
