Heartbreak sucks; there we said it! It is much more than a person leaving our life, it seems like a part coming to an end.
Hollow gut-wrenching feelings, being messy, having anxiousness and we all have been there and realised that the aftermath of every breakup just gets complex with each passing day.
We have cried our eyes out at a traffic signal in the car, sobbed during the night, seen a picture of our ex on social and then cried again.
Life is a vicious cycle that brings everything from both worlds, the good and the bad and we all have our ways to handle it.
But what remains common for each one of us is an emotional connection with songs.
Whether you want to shout, sob or just sing out loud and fall in love with yourself all over again, these breakup songs will definitely help you.
1. We are never ever getting back together by Taylor Swift
A song for every mood. Every time you feel, you want to go back, “we are never ever getting back together” is the song that needs to be on your playlist. It stabs us in the heart, but it is what it is. We absolutely do not want anything getting in our way of healing.
2. Thank U next by Ariana Grande
“Thank U Next” perfectly defined how every failed relationship and person teaches us something and how we need to let go of them too. Ariana’s song is the best definition of looking back at our past as an appreciation and learning.
3. Falling by Harry Styles
Not a single time has taken place when we have heard this song and not shed some tears. “I can’t unpack the baggage you left.” Just true to the lyrics, there comes a stage when we are the most vulnerable and Falling’s lyrics just make it more relatable.
4. Someone like you by Adele
A very different take on breakups, Adele’s song is not sarcastic or bitter, it has a positive side to it, “I wish nothing but the best for you, too”, is what she says.
5. Good for U by Olivia Rodrigo
This song is a total vibe! Angry yet therapeutic, this song is all things fantastic. During the raging phase that you go through, you need to realise you are worthy of everything that you didn’t get in the relationship.
6. We belong together by Mariah Carey
This is just when reality hits us which can indeed be very heartbreaking and the lyrics say it all, “Who am I gon’ lean on when times get rough?”
7. Flowers by Miley Cyrus
No matter how many phases of breakup you go through, there comes a time when nothing feels better than making yourself the priority and this song promotes the right kind of love, and self-love with lyrics like, “I can buy myself flowers, write my name in the sand”.
