This is actually my funeral choice but it is multi-purpose

Last Goodbye - Jeff Buckley

[camo]

This was in heavy radio rotation during my split.

Lemar - It's not that easy

not that easy
dont you know how hard it is for me
to smile and say goodbye
it's not that easy no
it's not that easy

its not over
not for me
used to have so much faith and I still believe
you're my weakness
youre my strength
and one without the other
just dont make no sense

girl I tried, I tried a million times
to get you off my mind
its not that easy no
not that easy
dont you know how hard it is for me
to smile and say goodbye
it's not that easy no
it's not that easy

its not as easy for me
as it is for you
let me talk about it
its not that easy
listen
what am I meant to do without your love, your love
what am I meant to do without your love
oh what am I meant to do without your love, your love
what am I meant to do without your love

girl I tried, I tried a million times
to get you off my mind
its not that easy no
not that easy
dont you know how hard it is for me
to smile and say goodbye
it's not that easy no
it's not that easy

what am I meant to do without your love, your love
what am I meant to do without your love
what am I meant to do without your love, your love
what am I meant to do without your love

dont you know how hard it is for me
to smile and say goodbye
it's not that easy no
it's not that easy

[abcdefz]

I will survive - Gloria Gaynor.

Say no more.




Yeah.... whatever happened to her? :D

[hpdrifter]

Hopefully if she reemerges it'll be with a different song.

I have heard that song more times in my life then any other song ever. Including the abcs song and happy birthday.

Why oh why do people still play it?

[abcdefz]

It's pretty propulsive, but, yeah, I dunno.

[Waus]

...I know it always seems like I just plug my favorite bands, but -

Beck - Lost Cause
Eels - Numbered Days

and finally:

Elliott Smith - Waltz #1

everytime the day darkens down and goes away
pictures open in my head of me and you
silent and cliché
all the things we did and didn't say
covered up by what we did and didn't do
going through every out i used to cope
to make the repetition stop
what was i supposed to say?
now i never leave my zone
we're both alone
i'm going home
i wish i'd never seen your face

[HEIRESS]

"Long way down" - Hayden

Do you ever go to the places we both were known?
Do you walk where we used to roam?
Do your thoughts go by me in their flow?
When Im alone sometimes I need to know
Baby, its a long way down
And I wonder how youve changed
Have the years left lines I cant trace?
Has your brain lost cells that wont replace?
And are you light or weighed down with mistakes?
When it gets late sometimes I see your face
Baby, its a long way down
Baby, let your feelings show
Its all I need from you to let go
Cause baby, I cant stay this low
When theres so much I need to grow

And I know you never go to the places we both were known
And you dont walk where we used to roam
And your thoughts dont pass me in their flow
Because if they didnt I wouldnt be out alone
Baby, its a long way down
Baby, let you feelings show
Its all I need from you to let go
Cause baby I cant stay this low
When theres so much I need to know

[paul jones]

'Piss Up A Rope' -WEEN

[abcdefz]

I want to give honorable mention to Tom Petty for "The Best of Everything."

It's probably years after the break-up, but it's one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard about anything.

Robbie Robertson did a great horn arrangement and produced it.



The Best of Everything (http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=50:sydovw9ua9qk~T)

She prob'ly works in a restaurant
That's what her mama did
But I don't know if she ever really coulda put up with it
Or maybe she sings in a nightclub
'Cause sometimes she used to sing
But I don't know if it ever amounted to anything

Chorus
But listen honey, wherever you are tonight
I wish you the best of everything in the world
And I hope you found whatever you were looking for

Yeah and it's over before you know it
It all goes by so fast
Them bad nights take forever
And the good nights don't ever seem to last
And man, we never had the real thing
But sometimes we used to kiss
Back when we didn't understand
What we were caught up in

(Repeat Chorus)

[HEIRESS]

"its all over now" - ROLLING STONES

"right time to say goodbye" - THE INBREDS

[HEIRESS]

this song just makes me cry when I think of past break-ups

"various stages" - GREAT LAKE SWIMMERS

I have seen you in various stages of undress
I have seen you through various states of madness
I have seen your refractions and I did not recognize you
I have seen you in various states of madness.

How high your highest of heights? How low are your lows?
How high your highest of heights? How low are your lows?

I am sorry I had nothing left for you
My mind was willing and my spirit was strong
My lips were tired and tightened from singing along
My eyelids are heavy as anchors thrown over.

How high your highest of heights? How low are your lows?
How high your highest of heights? How low are your lows?

I have seen you in the eyes of a hundred thousand other stranger faces
I have seen you in unlikely and unfamiliar places
I have seen you be reckless in matters of love
I have seen by degrees the boiling point come and go.

How high your highest of heights? How low are your lows?
How high your highest of heights? How low are your lows?
What lies at the end of this long and dark and twisted road?
How high your highest of heights? How low are your lows?

I have seen you in various stages of undress
I have seen you through various states of madness.

[paul jones]

'Piss Up A Rope' -WEEN

Nice, but I prefer If You Could Save Yourself (You'd Save Us All):

On a free ride home from the embassy
I saw the governor, and his lover holding hands
When I got to my place, I emptied my suitcase
And opened the windows wide

If you could save yourself, you'd save us all
Is that what you called me for, is that why you're knocking on my door?
The time I've spent, working myself to death
Thought that's what you wanted
I thought you needed my help
To make it good again, to make us strong
To make you happy, to push you along
And gain some respect, to be thrown a crumb
I was on my knees, when you knocked me down

The wheels fell off, the bottom dropped out
The checks all bounced, I came in your mouth
Your mother came calling but there was no one around
The trash caught fire when the leaves turned brown
The vultures were circling when the circus left town
I left you a note but I wrote it in disappearing ink

If you could save yourself, you'd save us all
Is that what you called me for, is that why you're knocking on my door?
The time I've spent, working myself to death
Thought that's what you wanted
I thought you needed my help
To make it good again, to make us strong
To make you happy, to push you along
And gain some respect, to be thrown a crumb
I was on my knees, when you knocked me down


Ween doesn't fuck around when it comes to break up songs.(y)

[MC Moot]

Hank Williams "I'm so lonesome I could cry"

Hear the lonesome whiperwill
He sounds too blue to fly
The midnight train is whining low
Im so lonesome I could cry

Ive never seen a night so long
When time goes crawling by
The moon just went behind a cloud
To hide its face and cry

Did you ever see a robin weep
When leaves begin to die
That means hes lost the will to live
Im so lonesome I could cry

The silence of a falling star
Lights up a purple sky
And as I wonder where you are
Im so lonesome I could cry

[thegoodmrbrodie!]

'nobody but you' by trembling blue stars.

what am i going to do
i don't want to live without love
but i don't want to love
nobody but you
someone who doesn't want
me any more, me any more
someone who no longer wants me
what am i going to do?

anyone else
i'd always be thinking
how they're not you
i'd always be thinking
how they're not you
i just wish you
would give me the chance to
never, never hurt you again
why must it be that
i was too late in seeing that
in thinking my love gone
i couldn't've been more wrong
anyone else
i'd always be thinking
how they're not you
i'd always be thinking
how they're not you

what am i going to do?
i don't want to be
alone in the world
but want you only
but only want you.

[Lex Diamonds]

The lyrics to She Bangs The Drums are perfect, especially this bit:

I dont feel too steady on my feet
I feel hollow I feel weak
Passion fruit and holy bread
Fill my guts and ease my head
Through the early morning sun
I can see her here she comes

She bangs the drums

Have you seen her have you heard
The way she plays there are no words
To describe the way I feel

How could it ever come to pass
Shell be the first shell be the last
To describe the way I feel
The way I feel

[Mustangjen808]

song for the dumped

so you wanted
to take a break
slow it down some
and have some space
well, fuck you too!

give me my money back
give me my money back, you bitch
I want my money back
and don't forget
and don't forget
to give me back my black t-shirt

I wish I hadn't
bought you dinner
right before you
dumped me on your front porch

give me my money back
give me my money back, you bitch
I want my money back
and don't forget
and don't forget
to give me back my black t-shirt

so you wanted
to take a break
slow it down some
and have some space

give me my money back
give me my money back, you bitch
I want my money back
I want my money back
and don't forget

[hpdrifter]

Fiona Apple has some great break up songs:

Love Ridden

Love ridden I looked at you
With a focus I gave to my birthday candles
I wished on the lidded blue flames under your brow
And baby I wished for you

Nobody sees when you are lying in your bed
And I wanna crawl in with you but I cry instead
I want your warm but it will only make me colder when its over
So I can't tonight, baby

No not baby anymore, if I need you I'll just use your simple name
Only kisses on the cheek from now on
And in a little while we'll only have to wave

My hand won't hold you down no more
The path is clear to follow through
I stood too long in the way of the door
And I've given up on you

Chorus

Chorus

Get Gone

How many times do I have to say to get away-get gone
Flip your shit past another lass's humble dwelling
You got your game, made your shot, and you got away
With a lot, but I'm not turned on

So put away that meat you're selling
Cuz I do know what's good for me-
And I've done what I could for you
But you're not benefiting, and yet I'm sitting
Singing again, sing, sing again

How can I deal with this, if he won't get with this
Am I gonna heal from this; he won't admit to it
Nothing to figure out; I gotta get him out
It's time the truth was out that he don't give a shit about me

How many times can it escalate
Till it elevates to a place I can't breathe?
And I must decide, if you must deride
That I'm much obliged to up and go
I'll idealize, then realize that it's no sacrifice
Because the price is paid, and there's nothing left to grieve

Fuckin go cuz I've done what I could for you
And I do know what's good for me and I'm not benefiting, instead
I'm sitting singing again, singing again, singing again,
Sing, sing, sing again

How can I deal with this, if he won't get with this
Am I gonna heal from this; he won't admit to it
Nothing to figure out; I gotta get him out
It's time the truth was out that he don't give a shit about me

[Mr Films]

Incubus "Blood on the Ground"

I don't wanna talk to you anymore
I'm afraid of what I might say
I bite my tongue everytime you come around
cuz blood in my mouth beats
blood on the ground

[hitmonlee]

christina aguilera - walk away

What do you do when you know something's bad for you
And you still can't let go?

I was naive
Your love was like candy
Artificially sweet
I was deceived by the wrapping

Got caught in your web
And I learned how to bleed
I was prey in your bed
And devoured completely

And it hurts my soul
Cause I can't let go
All these walls are caving in
I can't stop my suffering
I hate to show that I've lost control
Cause I, I keep going right back
To the one thing that I need to walk away from

I need to get away from ya
I need to walk away from ya
Get away, walk away, walk away

I should have known
I was used for amusement
Couldn't see through the smoke
It was all an illusion

Now I've been licking my wounds (licking my wounds)
But the venom seeps deeper (deeper, deeper)
We both can seduce, but
Darling you hold me prisoner (prisoner)

I'm about to break
I can't stop this ache
I'm addicted to your allure
and I'm fiending for a cure
Every step I take
Leads to one mistake
I keep going right back
To the one thing that I need...

I can't mend
This torn state I'm in
Getting nothing in return
What did I do to deserve
The pain of this slow burn
And everywhere I turn
I keep going right back
To the one thing that I need to walk away from

I need to get away from ya
I need to walk away from ya
Get away, walk away, walk away

Everytime I try to grasp for air
I am smothered in despair, it's never over, over
Seems I'll never wake from this nightmare
I let out a silent prayer, let it be over, over

Inside I'm screaming
Begging, pleading no more
Ahh...

Now what to do
My heart has been bruised
So sad but it's true
Each beat reminds me of you

It hurts my soul
Cause I can't let go
All these walls are caving in
I can't stop my suffering
I hate to show that I've lost control
Cause I, I keep going right back
To the one thing that I need...

I'm about to break
And I can't stop this ache
I'm addicted to your allure
And I'm fiending for a cure
Every step I take
Leads to one mistake
I keep going right back
To the one thing that I need...

I can't mend
This torn state I'm in
Getting nothing in return
What did I do to deserve
The pain of this slow burn
And everywhere I turn
I keep going right back
To the one thing that I need to walk away from

I say...
I need to get away from ya
I need to walk away from ya
Get away, walk away, walk away

Only thing I need to do is walk away

:D

[yeahwho]

Well if your going to quote lyrics, I have to jump in with some of the very best I've ever seen or heard, rarely played but worth the search.

God Will
Lyle Lovett

Who keeps on trusting you
When you've been cheating
And spending your nights on the town
And who keeps on saying that he still wants you
When you're through running around
And who keeps on loving you
When you've been lying
Saying things ain't what they seem
God does
But I don't
God will
But I won't
And that's the difference
Between God and me

So who says he'll forgive you
And says that he'll miss you
And dream of your sweet memory
God does
But I don't
God will
But I won't
And that's the difference
Between God and me

[MC Moot]

There's a tear in my beer
'cause I'm cryin' for you,dear
you are on my lonely mind.
Into these last nine beers
I have shed a million tears.
You are on my lonely mind
I'm gonna keep drinkin'
until I'm petrified.
And then maybe these tears
will leave my eyes.

i don't much care for bob dylan, but dont think twice, it's alright, has always stayed with me for it's cutting nature.
i like the break up songs the most which are like fuck this, rather than woe-is-me.

it ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe
it don't matter, anyhow
and it ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe
if you don't know by now
when your rooster crows at the break of dawn
look out your window and i'll be gone
you're the reason i'm travelling on
don't think twice, it's all right

it ain't no use in turnin' on your light, babe
that light i never knowed
and it ain't no use in turnin' on your light, babe
i'm on the dark side of the road
still i wish there was something you would do or say
to try and make me change my mind and stay
we never did too much talking anyway
so don't think twice, it's all right

it ain't no use in callin' out my name, gal
like you never did before
it ain't no use in callin' out my name, gal
i can't hear you any more
i'm a-thinkin' and a-wond'rin' all the way down the road
i once loved a woman, a child i'm told
i give her my heart but she wanted my soul
but don't think twice, it's all right

i'm walkin' down that long, lonesome road, babe
where i'm bound, i can't tell
but goodbye's too good a word, gal
so i'll just say fare thee well
i ain't sayin' you treated me unkind
you could have done better but i don't mind
you just kinda wasted my precious time
but don't think twice, it's all right

ouch.

[na§tee]

He doesn't say "ouch"! :mad:
haha! you just kinda wasted my precious time :cool:

[abcdefz]

Right. You're posting on a message board and I'm wasting your time. ;)

Yeah -- Bobby Z could be pretty harsh when he wanted to. Elvis Costello does that, too.

[na§tee]

no no no. you never waste my time, yo. you add to my daily bout of awesomeness.

that line is just sorta harsh. but i like it. /evil laughs. goodbye is too good a word? oooooooh child. that's gotta burn.

hit me with some harsh costello!

[abcdefz]

Okay. This isn't a romance-breakup song -- this one was about his former drummer who went on to write a thinly veiled tell-all novel about Costello:

"How to be Dumb"

I was hell-bent on destroying my powers of concentration
While you were living like a saint
And all the time the very one you trusted was washing off
somebody else's paint
Now you've got yourself a brand new occupation
Every fleeting thought is a pearl
And beautiful people stampede to the doorway
of the funniest fucker in the world

They're here to help you
Satisfy your desire
There's a bright future for all you professional liars

[Chorus:]
Now you know how to be dumb
Are you ready to take your place in the modern museum of mistakes?
Don't you know how to be dumb?
Like a building thrown up overnight in one of those reverse earthquakes

They emptied out all the asylums, they emptied out all the gaols
The "New Bruise" was the name of a dance craze
By "Jesus Cross and the Cruel Nails"
Followed up by "Torturing Little Beaver"
With their contraption of barbed wire
Between the fear and the fever lies all the rejection they require
They'll be howling by midnight, they'll be drooling by dawn
Skulls shrunk down to the size of their brains
Heads shaven and shorn

[Chorus]

Trapped in the House of the Perpetual Sucker
Where bitterness always ends so pitifully
You always had to dress up your envy in some half-remembered
philosophy

Now you're masquerading as pale powdered genius
Whose ever bad intention has been purged
You could've walked out any time you wanted but face it you
didn't have the courage
I guess that makes you a full time hypocrite or some kind of
twisted dilettante
Funny though people don't usually get so ugly till they think
they know what they want
Scratch your own head stupid
Count up to three
Roll over on your back
Repeat after me

Don't you know how to be dumb?
Are you ready to take your place in the modern museum of mistakes?
Don't you know how to be dumb?
Like a building thrown up overnight in one of those reverse earthquakes

I think it's actually Think(About It)...and it's not much of a break-up song.

"burn" Ray Lamontagne

oh man, this songs gets to me, oh freaking man



Oh mama don't walk away
I'm a goddam sore loser
I ain't too proud to stay
But I'm still thinking 'bout you
And I'm so lonesome without you
And I can't get you out of my mind
Oh mama don't leave me alone
with my soul sat down so tight it's like a stone cold tomb
Ain't it clear when I'm near you
I'm just dying to hear you
Calling my name one more time
Oh so don't pay no mind
To my watering eyes
Must be something in the air
That I'm breathing
Yes'n I try to ignore
All this blood on the floor
It's just this heart on my sleeve that's a bleeding
Oh mama don't walk away
You leave me here bereaving from the words so hard and plain
Saying the love that we had
was just selfish and sad
To see you now with him
is just making me mad
Oh so kiss him again
just to prove to me that you can
and I will stand here
and burn in my skin
Yes I will stand here
and burn in my skin

Otha Fish - Pharcyde

this one helped me through many hard times:

Yeah, bam, bam, bam, heyya, whassup, yeah
We was like that you know
Yeah, and I bet you got layed back
Yeah, I'ma uh, I'm a just sit in here for a couple of hours
Man, don't sweat it, yo, we gonna catch some stuff, dude
Oh no, I'm kinda tired
Nah, we got a basket, we're gonna fill this basket before we go, yo
Aight, bro
Cause there are otha fish...

[Slim Kid Tre]
It took a second to register up in my branium
My dome, my head, my skull, my cranium
My eyes have had enough, it was time to do some talkin
I had to creep through the hound-dogs that were stalkin
This slimmy caught me peepin, this means she wasn't sleepin
on who I was, so she crept in like a hawk
In a minute's time, we adjourned to the floor
Ooh! I hit a high note cause of the way that she was walkin
We got into the groove, I didn't bust no, uh, hip-hop moves
I just kept it nice and smooth
Next thing you know, we got together, word, I thought we'd be forever
Didn't have an um-ber-ella, now I'm soaked in stormy weather
whether two birds of a feather fly or fall it'll be together
Never sympin, and leave your love life limp
There'll be no suicide attempts for this slim-trim kid
Cuz you know there's otha fish in the sea, that is, in the sea
In the sea that is

(Chorus 3X)
(In the sea) You know there's otha fish in the sea that is

I reminisce, try to clear up all the myths
for an imaginary kiss with you again
Not even friends, though I wish that I could mend
like a tailor and be Olive Oyl's number one sailor
I ams what I am, still I falls like an anvil
She's heavy on the mind sometimes it's more than I can handle
But men aren't supposed to tumble into the den B
Macho, but I hancho like Pancho will give in
Family oriented, but not Oriental
A dame is supposed to claim ya even if you drive a Pinto
A hero is a sandwich, and a Manwich is a meal
A marriage is a paper, are they fakin or for real?
What's the deal dabbers? Will you go tumbling after
your man and take a stand or will you help him roll faster?
The reason why I ask you is because I'm sick of this
Bitch lickin drip drip from a niggaz benefits
He doesn't even suit ya and he's surely not ya size
I'm surprised that you slept on a heart that's worldwide
And when ya open up ya eyes, babe, my mate, I really wish
that ya don't bruise a limb, as ya swim with otha fish in the sea
In the sea that is

(Chorus 3X)

Now, if there ain't no mountain high enough
Why ain't you climbin up?
My hand has been extended every since the day I lent it to ya
I thought I knew ya, but I didn't even know ya
Bro, you're stupid, cause ya thought you'd catch a Cupid
and you found that love ain't two wiffs of shit
So I resign or quit
It ain't even about the hips, or the lips or the tits or
Even the pussywhip, Elizabeth, this is it
Because I slipped and I tripped into a shoe that didn't fit
And now the next man is stealing my heart away
I'd charge him like a bull, but his pull never fades me
The kid is going crazy, they steppin with my lady
They workin on a baby, I'm pushin up the daisies, but
hey diddle diddle, I won't play second fiddle
To no man and stand firm on this
And seal up on the bliss with a big juicy kiss
Just call me Big Gibraltor miss
No, I won't diss, I'm just like on to otha fish in the sea
In the sea that is
