My Chemistry by Interpol.

Not a love song but such sad desperate lyrics, I find it heartbreaking.

I thought of you OP and this thread yesterday when I was in our local supermarket. I think the person in charge of choosing the background music must also be going through a break up as all I heard was sad songs 😂 some already mentioned .... but I give you from their play list
Against All Odds Phil Collins

Thorn In My Side by Eurythmics might be cathartic at some point.

Oldies
Lonely Girl by Eddie Holman
The Crying Game by Boy George
Hurt by Timi Yuro
Anything sung by Timi Yuro who was a favourite singer of Frank Sinatra is pretty emotional

Tom waits- tom traubert's blues . Makes me roar every time.

Snuff-Arsehole. Not a traditional tearjerker but very therapeutic.

The Fratellis - Slow
The entire album 'Painkillers' by Brian Fallon (but especially the last track, Open All Night)

Then when you've cried all you can, try Ween - Piss up a Rope for some therapeutic anger Flowers

Magnetised by Tom Odell - both the acoustic and original version are good for a singalong
