alright so my friend just dumped her boyfriend of 3 years because he was putting her through a bunch of un needed sh.it. She feels so much anger towards him because of how much he hurt her and made her life difficult and she is convinced that she has lost almost all of the love that she once had for him. She asked me to try and get her any lyrics that express that feeling because she wants to make a book full of lyrics and give it to him since he doesn't seem to understand why the f.uck she dumped him even though she told him over and over again. This place is usually good at helping people so please help

well, once song comes to mind, "nothing better" by postal service. it's done with two singers, the guy who's saying that he loves this girl and that he can't thinkof anything better than spending his life with her if she's take him back, then the girl comes in and says that she can't forgive him, so he should just let it go, kinda sounds like the situation you just described. here's the lyrics, with the girl's part in italics:

Will someone please call a surgeon
Who can crack my ribs and repair this broken heart
That your're deserting for better company?
I can't accept that it's over...
I will block the door like a goalie tending the net
In the third quarter of a tied-game rivalry

So just say how to make it right
And i swear i'll do my best to comply

Tell me am i right to think that there could be nothing better
Than making you my bride and slowly growing old together

I feel must interject here you're getting carried away feeling sorry for yourself
With these revisions and gaps in history
So let me help you remember.
I've made charts and graphs that should finally make it clear.
I've prepared a lecture on why i have to leave
So please back away and let me go
I can't my darling i love you so...

Tell me am i right to think that there could be nothing better
Than making you my bride and slowly growing old together
Don't you feed me lines about some idealistic future
Your heart won't heal right if you keep tearing out the sutures

I admit that i have made mistakes and i swear
I'll never wrong you again
You've got a lure i can't deny,
But you've had your chance so say goodbye
Say goodbye

Well, for the anger part, From Autumn To Ashes has a few good ones: The After Dinner Payback, Alive Out Of Habit, A Look Of Anguish Reflected On A Face So Innocent (something like that). Also Senses Fail Bloody Romance and the one that talks about carving a smile in her by slitting her throat, i don't remember the title. I'm all about the anger.
