I've fallen in love with this song.  It's by the band Daughtry - lead singer Chris Daughtry was an American Idol finalist a couple of years ago. I love the whole CD, but this song has just got me.  It first makes me think of my dad and all the work I've done with regards to the abuse.  Second, it makes me think of Jason and all the work I still have to do.

Over You
Now that it's all said and done, I can't believe you were the one
To build me up and then tear me down
Like an old abandoned house
What you said when you left, just left me cold and out of breath
I fell too hard was in way too deep
Guess I let you get the best of me

(chorus) 
Well, I never saw it coming
I should have started running a long long time ago
And I never thought I doubt you
I'm better off without you, more than you, more than you know
I'm slowly getting closure, I guess it's really over
I'm finally getting better
Now I'm picking up the pieces from spending all of these years
Putting my heart back together
'Cause the day I thought I'd never get through
I got over you

You took a hammer to these walls
Dragged the memories down the hall
Packed your bags and walked away, there was nothing I could say
And when you slammed the front door shut
A lot of others opened up, so did my eyes so I could see
That you never were the best for me 

(chorus)
