What are your fav songs to listen to after a break up?

Gnarls Barkley Going On

(Can't do the link- here are lyrics)

"Going On"

I’ve seen it with my own eyes
How we’re gettin’ otherwise
Without the luxury of leavin’
The touch and feeling of free is
Untangible technically
Something you’ve got to believe in
Connect the cause and effect
One foot in front of the next
This is the start of a journey.
And my mind is already gone
And though there are other unknowns
Somehow this doesn’t concern me.

And you can stand right there if you want
But I’m going on
And I’m prepared to go it alone
I’m going on
To a place in the sun that’s nice and warm
I’m going on

And I’m sure they’ll have a place for you too oohoohoo

Anyone that needs what they want, and doesn’t want what they need
I want nothing to do with
And to do what I want
And to do what I please
Is first of my to-do list
But every once in a while I think about her smile
One of the few things I do miss
But baby I‘ve to go
Baby I’ve got to know
Baby I’ve got to prove it

And I’ll see you when you get there
But I’m going on
And I’m prepared to go it alone
I’m going on
May my love lift you up to the place you belong
I’m going on
And I promise I’ll be waiting for you oohoohoo



[Thanks to Ron Martin for these lyri
 
Oh this one is new, and though I'm not in that frame of mind, I have felt this before.
Janelle Monae faster

(again with the lyrics)

Faster lyrics
You, since that magic day
We've been like magnets in a place
We smash in then pull away
Every day

You, you're a jet, a flying gun
You kill me softly with your sun
You melt my wings and call it fun
I should run

Faster and faster
I should run
Faster and faster
From your arms

I watch my powers die
Falling our of starry skies
You kryptonite my life
Every night

The ending of this road
Dashing prince or horny toad?
Who really ever knows?
I should know

Faster and faster
I should run
Faster and faster
From your arms

Mmm, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I'm running
shaking like a schizo
'Lectric sheep are dancing in the window
My heart beats
It's kicking like a kick drum
Am I a freak?
Or just another weirdo
Call me weak
Or just call me your hero

You can't zap down all my good times
I know right from wrong
Kissing loving's feeling good
And not this feeling down
You hide your chainsaw deep in kisses
That don't make it quiet
You got em running, muttering, screaming, each and every night

Faster and faster
I should run
Faster and faster
From your arms
