In his latest story, "Break Ups: When a Name Becomes a Trigger," Austin Cox eloquently drove home one timeless message: Men ain't shit. In honor of that (mostly facetious) sentiment, here are twelve songs with a "f**k you" message for when you're drunk and in your breakup feels.
12. Billie Eilish - Lost Cause
Thought you had your shit together, but damn, I was wrong
You ain't nothin' but a lost cause
And this ain't nothin' like it once was
I know you think you're such an outlaw
But you got no job
11. Halsey - Without Me
Tell me, how's it feel sittin' up there?
Feeling so high, but too far away to hold me
You know I'm the one who put you up there
Name in the sky, does it ever get lonely?
Thinking you could live without me
10. Aly & AJ - Potential Breakup Song
'Cause without me, you know you're lost
Minus you I'm better off
Soon you will know
You're not livin' 'til you're livin'
Livin' with me
You're not winnin' 'til you're winnin'
Winnin' me
You're not gettin' 'til you're gettin'
Gettin' me
You're not livin' 'til you're livin'
Living for me
9. NF - Lie
Why you playin' with my mind, huh?
Why you playin' with my time, huh?
Told me we should let it go and put it all behind us
That's what I did, now you askin' me what I done, I was
Waitin' for this day, I saw it comin'
I think you just like attention, tryna tell me all your problems
I got issues of my own, I ain't got time for all this drama
You told me that you don't really wanna talk
Then why you callin', huh?
8. Taylor Swift - I Did Something Bad
If a man talks shit, then I owe him nothing
I don't regret it one bit, 'cause he had it comin'
7. Miley Cyrus - East Northumberland High
And if there's some confusion
Let me tell you, you're just delusional, get a clue
'Cause people change, thank God I did
6. Kristinia DeBarge - Goodbye
I don't care if I never see you again
I'll be alright
Take this final piece of advice
And get yourself together
But either way baby, I'm gone
5. Taylor Swift - Mr. Perfectly Fine
Mr. "Never told me why"
Mr. "Never had to see me cry"
Mr. "Insincere apology so he doesn't look like the bad guy"
He goes about his day
Forgets he ever even heard my name
Well, I thought you might be different than the rest, I guess you're all the same
4. Paula Cole - Where Have All the Cowboys Gone?
Where is my John Wayne
Where is my prairie song
Where is my happy ending
Where have all the cowboys gone
3. Halsey - You should be sad
No, you're not half the man you think that you are
And you can't fill the hole inside of you
With money, drugs, and cars
I'm so glad I never ever had a baby with you
'Cause you can't love nothing
Unless there's something in it for you
2. Lizzo - Truth Hurts
Why are men great 'til they gotta be great?
Don't text me, tell it straight to my face
Best friend sat me down in the salon chair
Shampoo press, get you out of my hair
Fresh photos with the bomb lighting
New man on the Minnesota Vikings
Truth hurts, needed something more exciting
Bom bom bi dom bi dum bum bay
1. Olivia Rodrigo - good 4 u
And good for you, it's like you never even met me
Remember when you swore to God I was the only
Person who ever got you
Well, screw that and screw you
You will never have to hurt the way you know that I do
Sending love and positivity Austin's way and to anyone with a broken heart! 💖
