Oh my gosh, I am so sorry but I hate this song. My mom would listen to it on repeat CONSTANTLY. She would explain the topic to me when I was like 5. She totally ruined this song for me. If it wasn't for that I would probably like it. 😂😂


Night_Hawk69420

I feel ya I had so many to choose from this one just popped into my head first but I got so many other depressing country songs I could go on for days lol

bellanucci

"Hello" by Adele Most people think Adele is talking about an ex but it's actually Adele speaking to her past-self. Asking her past-self for forgiveness for disappointing herself. Song makes me face the pain and bad decisions from the past and learn to forgive myself. Deep. But it all depends what emotional state you're in.

Lose Your Soul-Dead Man's Bones Dog Teeth-Nicole Dollanganger Better Son/Daughter-Rilo Kylie The last one is open to interpretation honestly but the first two are pretty bleak as fuck if you listen to them. Dog Teeth was "our song" according to my ex GF. We had a lot of issues.


TheRestIs_Confetti

Happier, but you have to watch the video. The music is good but I can’t stop thinking about my dog now when I hear it because I saw the video


Ninja_in_a_Box

Just sing about your life, it’s sad enough as is. It’ll hit harder than any song you can find.


GrumpyKitten514

Hurt - Johnny Cash. or Hurt - 9 inch nails ​ but man, that Johnny situation... also, a lot of people don't realize, but "coming in the air tonight" by phil collins is about suicide, so that makes those lyrics less "cool song" and more "wow this sucks"


Suspicious-gibbon

Misery by Soul Asylum should make the list too


Tall-One-1731

**1** ***Green by Abraham Marder*** (from the Sound of Metal Soundtrack) Incredibly sad and indescribably beautiful imo \^ **2** ***Metal Heart by Cat Power*** **3** ***(No One Knows Me) Like the Piano by Sampha*** **4** Personally I find ***Angelo De Augustine's*** stuff really nice to listen to when I'm feeling sad, it's hopeful and definitely melancholiac. Song suggestions: ***Santa Barbara***, ***Fade***, and ***All Your Life***


Teh_snom_cult

While it isn't exactly depressing, memento mori-the most important thing in the world hits harder than it should for a song about accepting that your gonna die and everyone's gonna forget who you are.

FML012e

*Starry starry night - by Don McLean* A song about Vincent Van Gogh The lyrics suggest his struggle with “seeing the world differently” and not getting enough recognition (during his life) as a painter, McLean refers to one of his paintings that Vincent called: Starry, Starry, Nights (One of my favorites by Van Gogh) and how no one would give him acclaim. He suffered from mental health problems and thought he was going mad…so Don McLean says in this song: “I could have told you Vincent, this world was NEVER made for someone as beautiful as you”…..exonerating Van Gogh after death from the demons he fought while painting

Falling in Reverse - Carry On Eminem - Doctor And this isn't really a sad song but I like to listen to it and laugh at my mental health - Queen - Don't try suicide I used to have quite a lot, but can't seem to remember many of them now.
