You just won’t lie down. Even closing your eyes, you can’t let it go, Surrounded inside. Leave it alone. You don’t get it back Undoing the scenes you can’t explain, Whatever you dream That you’ve buried away. It seems like you’re there as someone removed And left in their place with nothing to do. Bound to the switch. Railing again at the thought of the fight For well-earned dissent Undeserved at the time. As you’ve been shown, the motion has gone A shade of the night, only leading you on.

I’m a big music snob, and I’m in my forties, but Decompression Period by Papa Roach hit me really hard the first time I heard it, and it’s always one I go back to. I’ve never had a bad breakup or anything, but it really captures the feeling for me.
I’ve got a playlist, “Everything sucks but that’s ok”. This Year by The Mountain Goats is usually a solid pick. It’s wistful and defiant without being too sweet.

And if things are starting to get a little better Good As It Gets by Little Hurt is great. It is incredibly catchy.
