I Feel Bad

I noticed something today. There have been 3 songs that have carried me through the last 4 months and all 3 are by the same artist. Not only that, all 3 songs have strong similarities. All 3 are about moving on and becoming strong. All 3 focus more on the relief of the relationship being over versus the mourning of it.

I guess this is really how I feel. Yes, I think it sucks my marriage is over but I am not really mourning it. I am happier than I have been in years to be truly honest. I am looking forward to seeing what the future holds, and for once in a long time, I am not fearful. I know there are great things out there for me, and for him.

Below are the lyrics to "I Don't Feel Bad". A few days ago I posted the lyrics to "Movin' On". Both are by Rascal Flats. If anyone is interested in the 3rd song, it is also by Rascal Flatts titled "Stand".

It's amazing to me how all 3 of these songs encompass exactly everything that I have been feeling over these last four months and how it's so completely different then the emotions that most would think that I am feeling.

For anyone going through something similar to what I have gone through, I highly suggest listening to these picks. You will gather more strength from the lyrics and music then you have had in a long time.

"I Don't Feel Bad"

"I should be out in that driveway stopping you
Tears should be rolling down my cheek
And I don't know why I'm not falling apart
Like I usually do
And how the thought of losing you's not killing me

I feel bad

That I can stand here strong
Cold as stone,
Seems so wrong
I can't explain it
Maybe it's just
I've cried so much
I'm tired and I'm numb
Baby I hate it
I feel bad that I don't feel bad

I can let myself be angry over wasted time
And sad about just throwing love away
Yeah I almost wish my heart was breaking
But I cant lie
All I want to do is turn the page

I feel Bad

That I can stand here strong
Cold as stone,
Seems so wrong
I can't explain it
Maybe it's just
I've cried so much
I'm tired and I'm numb
Baby I hate it

I feel bad

That I don't feel bitter,
alone
I just feel its time,
its time to move on
I just gotta move on and on and on and on

Baby it's just I've cried so much
I'm tired and I'm numb
baby I hate it

I feel bad that I don't feel bad

No, I don't feel bad"

-Rascal Flatts
