i'm not trying to sound depressing - i'm just trying to think of songs or quotes from songs to say to a friend as a joke

Wouldn't anything from THE LAST 5 YEARS be suitable?

If Losing My Mind counts as one, then Could I Leave You? should probably count at least as an I'm Going to Either Break Up With You Or Beat You Within An Inch Of Your Life Song.

"Without You"-MY FAIR LADY
"Simple"/"Be On Your Own"-NINE

Not really a break-up song per se, but I would count "Casualty of Love" from The Wedding Singer as one. And if you don't count that, "A Note From Linda" is definetely one.
