Tears of a Broken Heart

"Try to say its over, 

                           say the word goodbye..."

Isn't it funny that one time in your life you’ve dreamed of a happy ever after, you thought that things will get better as time passed by; everything will be going so perfectly and will never get hurt but in the end you’ll find yourself broken? You spend time to figure it out what really went wrong and obviously its too late to undo things.

We love. We admire. Then we cry. What is a tear? Is it just a drop of water which comes out from our eyes? Is it just a drop of water that seeks freedom and fiercely wanted to escape? Or is it something else that even words can not explain? Tear, a powerful element of life that can never be replaced by any thing. In times of joy, sorrow excitement and for all of the instances in life tears take the center stage. It is an extreme feeling; an undeniable emotion. It is not released by our eyes nor by our mind. It came from somewhere much stronger yet too sensitive, our hearts.

Why tears always associated to a broken heart?

It's amazing how you build things with someone whom you believed will stay with you as long as you want to; lots of promises, plans and breath you shared then one day you'll find yourself awaken because it was just a fairy tale. Maybe all of us believes in a fairytale; a happy ever after; a wonderland; a place where both worlds collide but at some point of our lives we still got hurt then eventually end up with "lies". Its good to fantasize things however it is better to face the reality. Love as everyone know is one of the main reasons why people find their happiness but on the other hand this is one of the main reasons why most of us end up miserable. We always begin with "once upon a time" then end up crying. Now, what I'm trying to say is, face the reality and move on.  We are sometimes forced to say goodbye to people we love and care about not because we want a revenge, but we're trying to save the good old times and the little feelings that have left. 
But, what causes our heart to release these tears? The broken promises? The lies? The reality? or is it the broken heart itself? The moment we cry is the moment our heart releases its tears. It does not mean that we're weak but its a way of saying that we've been strong enough and struggled for too long and it is time to let go.

We love. We laugh. We cry. We let go. We move on. We just have to bear in mind that nothing's permanent, its up to you nor to the person you love whether both of you will stay longer. We just need to learn the art of letting go...:) Here is a song by Mikaila which will help you a lot during a tough time of your life:

The Art of Letting Go by Mikaila

Some people believe that holding on is a great strength. However, there are times when it takes much more strength to know when to let go. Let the past be the past and let the present guide you to a better future. I once got hurt then I moved on...I found no harm by doing it, I faced the reality and luckily I've found someone better, someone who I considered the BEST...

Music as Self Expression

Expression is the acme of all arts. A language that anyone will or will never understand. A data entry stored in one’s memory that is ready to explode any time. Now, turn your radio on and you will hear different kinds of music; from country to classical, oldies to hard rock and mellow to punk, they all have something notable to offer you.

Music is more than just head-banging and singing in front of the crowd. Its deeper, it lets people say things that even themselves can't utter.  Any music has a versatile way of expression which brings a variety of emotions onto people; expressing themselves through music is a way of escaping from a certain feeling of depression or uttering special sentiment to people. The genres of songs that we used to listen is a way of expressing what kind of mood we have for example listening to hard rock; a form of loud and aggressive music, the riffs of the guitar accompanied by drums in high range and its raspy vocals can release you're anger, mellow musics means that you're in sorrow or sometimes people eavesdrop to this kind of song for relaxation and reflecting life, rap is a vehicle of expression and various rappers have their unique idea on sharing how they really feel and alternative love songs is a mode of expressing feelings to loved ones. There are still many genres of music but the focal point of which is "self-expression".

People listen to music based on their moods and also how the lyrics affect them; what kind of emotion they get and how it'll make a better perspective on their thoughts.

Why People Listen to Angry music?

It’s not always the song that upsets you but the emotions that it whips out. Songs about break ups, being cheated, lied to etc. gives you an outlook on something happened in your life it’s not the sense of “coincidence” but rather you've got hit by the lyrics and you can relate from one way or another. It gets you thinking about an incident happened to you, the things you regret or things that you don’t want to happen in your life. The feelings of indifference and guilt that makes you wanna scream is lightened by relating it to the meaning of the song.

Here are list of songs for people who is pissed off but at the same time...these would be a "burden-lightener":

My top 10 songs for upset:

Over You by Daughtry

 

"You're with somebody for a really long time, and you pretty much think that this is the person you're gonna spend the rest of your life with, and then they drop the ball on you. Then you think it's over, your life is done, and then somebody better walks in." - Chris Daughtry

Actually, this break up song has no particular impact on me in the sense that I haven't yet engaged in so serious relationship but as I digest every thought of its lyrics I knew that the incidents happened particularly in the "song-story" are the things that I don't want to happen in my life. Though this song discloses anger, war of feelings and extreme sorrow that any listener can be upset (if they got hit by its lyrics) still it has a positive notion; it is finding strength and courage to move on even though someone left you hanging out of the blue.

Gone Forever  by Three Days Grace

This really is a beautiful song based on a relationship that didn't turn out best. It may hit a personal chord to a listener with a relationship that didn't end in the best way …and at the end of the horizon…

"I feel so much better

Now that you're gone forever

I tell myself that I don't miss you at all

I'm not lying, denying that I feel so much better now"

Numb by Linkin Park

This song is awesome and really explains parent-child relationship. Sometimes children are sick of living up to the extreme expectations their parents set to them. Just what like the song is trying to emphasize; it really sucks to make your parents disappointed and at the same time it takes a long time to make them proud, the feeling of imperfection and the sense of being who you really are, are just some of the things that is hard to explain towards your parents. However, parents should realize how desperate their children are just to satisfy their expectations also they should accept every bit of reality of what their progeny wanted to be.

Down With a Sickness by Disturbed

With my personal view, this song accentuate extreme anger and at the same time cruelty towards someone. I got hooked with its "oh! aahhhh, aaaahhhh, aaaaahhhh, ah" lyrics but I can't relate to its full story. But for the sake of music I think this band really expressed who they really are.

Pardon Me by Incubus

This is a great song about dealing with all of the crap and dim-witted things people do in life and the want of literally exploding at some time. Life has so many to offer both ups and downs but no matter how sick you may become by the shits and craps in vivacity still think of the positive sides always. Remember, problems make you stronger.

Riot by Three Days Grace

Awesome song for pissed people. It releases anger indeed. The story behind this song is about political power controlling the people thus, result to a chaotic storm that causes death and destruction. Moreover, it also deals with people who think life is full of shit and their emotions are bottled only on themselves and they're thinking of an "escape" from horrendous feeling. Thus, every individual should try to express how they really feel all the time because the more you hide the pain the more hurtful it is until you can't escape from it anymore and you wanna end up to a "riot".

Shut Up by Simple Plan

SHUT UP!!!!!!!!!!! YEAH I'M PISSED OUT AS I'M WRITING THIS POST! HAHAHAHA. Seriously, this song is about someone whose always been pushed on something he don't want to be and always been criticized because of his mistakes. But, who cares if you committed mistakes? its your life, be what you want to be!

Vindicated by Dashboard Confessionals

Vindicated, as what the song is trying to impart the listener. This song has an contradicting thoughts: being right and at the same time being wrong towards something. Same with dealing through reality, sometimes right decisions are not right at all especially when there's someone hurt and left hanging.

Losing Grip by Avril Lavigne

Do you know the feeling of being ignored, left out, confused and alone? Well, you should listen to this music. Digest everything behind the lyrics and later on you'll realize how painful it is to be ignored and left hanging with bewilderment. Well, just MOVE ON!

Let the Flames Begin by Paramore

An emotional song. Cynical. The song lay emphasis on giving up of a flawed individual because of his weak personality,sense of despair and the feeling of being miserable. Though bowing out is pretty near still faith paved strength and a burning passion to prove to others that giving up is not a solution. Basically, every person has their own dance and its up to us how well we bop on its perfect tune. Always bear in mind that, misery loves company, so be strong.
