One of my personal faves is "Since you've Been Gone"- Kelly Clarkson

I'm not really a country music fan (and this is a little "tenny bopper" for me) but you've gotta love the lyrics ...

"State the obvious, I didn't get my perfect fantasy
I realize you love yourself more than you could ever love me
So go and tell your friends that I'm obsessive and crazy
That's fine I'll tell mine you're gay"****

Picture to Burn by Taylor Swift


****As they used to say on Seinfeld..."Not that there's anything wrong with that".

Bob Dylan's "Don't Think Twice, It's All Right" helped me through a really rough time.

One of the best parts:
"I'm walkin' down that long, lonesome road, babe
Where I'm bound, I can't tell
But goodbye's too good a word
So I'll just say fare thee well
I ain't saying 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"

Unanswered Prayers by Garth Brooks is by far my favorite.
It is sappy, but having been there and now being on the other side, well, it is spot on.

"I will Survive" is always a good one too, depending on the situation with the breakup.

Miranda Lambert- Kerosene
my favorite part:

"Now I don't hate the one who left
you can't hate someone who's dead
He's out there holding on someone
I'm holding up my smoking gun"

Don't really know what your situtation is, but, Mya has this song called, "If you died I wouldn't cry cause you never loved me anyway". It's circa 1996...
Best Part:
You used to be my lover and my friend (You use to be my best friend)
You can get struck by lighting
Washed away by the sea
Burned in a fire just don't bring it back to me
Cause if you died i wouldn't cry cause you never loved me anyway

Kelly Clarkson's "Walkaway" is awesome
Best Part:
I wanna love
I want a fire
To feel the burn
My desires
I wanna man by my side
Not a boy who runs and hides
Are you gonna fight for me?
Die for me?
Live and breathe for me?
Do you care for me?
'Cause if you don't then just leave
