motivational songs

Im trying to get over my addict ex boyfriend, but i find that when im in the car, every song makes me sad and think of him!

are there any songs that you can think of that i can listen to to give myself motivation and not sulk on the has beens but what he has put me through??

i like all kinds of music. Rock, Classic Rock, Country, Rap, R n B, everything
except like gospel and jazz and what not.

thanks ahead in advance!

I almost torture myself with depressing music on purpose and then maybe I go on overload and get over it! The songs that helped me see hope was Sara Evens "Little Bit Stronger" that song is so true! And then the other one was "Call Me" by Shinedown. I actually made my XABF listen to that one and told him it had to be his song! He just laughed and wouldn't listen to all of it.

thank you! i really liked the call me by shinedown and i esp liked the circle down the drain. i swear that one i relate to so well. i somehow thought i needed to act like his mother to help him, and he was an opiate pill addict. i spent many many many... lets just say too many, times sitting around beign bored while his face was in his lap.
