You know what it's like to just be over it? To be done with whatever's going on in your life? Maybe it's your love life, your job, your college major – there are all kinds of things you can be over. When you're dealing with that situation, you need a playlist, the perfect playlist, so you can vent your feelings through some great music. I got you covered!
1. Descendents – “Everything Sux”
I put this first because when you're in the frame of mind that you're just over it, everything sucks. Everything. Everything sucks and you're over it and that's it.
2. The Band Perry – “Done”
The name says it all, right? Is there a better song to listen to when you're absolutely done with everything and all the crap involved with it? Nope!
3. Lily Allen – “Fuck You”
This name says it all, too. Eff you, eff you very much!
4. Yo Preston – “Love Yourself Vs. Fuck Yourself”
Well, because it always comes down to that choice when you feel like this, doesn't it? Which one do you pick?
5. Bowling for Soup – “a Friendly Goodbye”
No lie, I blare this song as loud as I can when I'm over it. Usually while I'm driving around and getting lost on purpose.
6. Meredith Brooks – “Bitch”
Not only is it natural to act like a bitch and to feel like a bitch when you're over it, but you should make like Meredith Brooks and own it. Nothing wrong with being a bitch.
7. Carolina Liar – “Coming to Terms”
Any time you're feeling done and over everything, you definitely have to come to terms with whatever made you feel that way.
8. Ed Sheeran – “Small Bump”
Oh, Ed, with that gorgeous crooning voice of his! He always puts things in perspective!
9. Rachel Platten – “Fight Song”
Sometimes, you need a little inspiration to keep fighting. This is a great song for that.
10. Macy Gray – “I Try”
I don't know what it is about this song, but in addition to Macy's distinctive voice, which is gorgeous, the message just resonates. I think we all know how it feels to keep trying to accomplish something, anything, and to keep choking.
11. Rihanna – “Take a Bow”
When you're over it, it's absolutely important to know when to walk away.
12. Avril Lavigne – “My Happy Ending”
Because, see, sometimes you just don't get your happy ending. Sometimes it's just not in the cards.
13. Stroke 9 – “Kick Some Ass”
And sometimes, when you don't get the outcome you want or you're frustrated and so done, you just kind of wanna kick some ass.
14. Three Days Grace – “I Hate Everything about You”
It's also natural to feel like you hate everything about everyone – or about one someone in particular. No problem!
15. Eminem – “the Way I Am”
Actually, there's an Eminem song for every mood you're in, and plenty to listen to when you're just over it. My thinking is, though, when you're over it, that's the best time to just seriously own who you are.
16. Drowning Pool – “Bodies”
Let the bodies hit the floor! Let the bodies hit the floor! Let the bodies hit the floooor!
17. Limp Bizkit – “Break Stuff”
An oldie but a goodie, am I right? Besides, when you're over it, you really just wanna break stuff, don't you?
What do you listen to when you're just absolutely done?
