Do you know any depressing song lyrics?

I'm feeling kind of depressed, so I want to hear sad songs. No, this isn't for attention; I just want sad song lyrics. So don't come out with a be happy lecture -_-

For example, the lyrics to "Nobody's home" by Avril Lavigne are the kind of lyrics I'm looking for. Oh, and please post the lyrics in your answer rather than just the song title.

    Cristina Vee - Bad Apple English Lyrics

    Ever on and on I continue circling

    With nothing but my hate in a carousel of agony

    Till slowly I forget and my heart starts vanishing

    And suddenly I see that I can't break free--I'm

    Slipping through the cracks of a dark eternity

    With nothing but my pain and the paralyzing agony

    To tell me who I am, who I was

    Uncertainty enveloping my mind

    Till I can't break free, and

    Maybe it's a dream; maybe nothing else is real

    But it wouldn't mean a thing if I told you how I feel

    So I'm tired of all the pain, of the misery inside

    And I wish that I could live feeling nothing but the night

    You can tell me what to say; you can tell me where to go

    But I doubt that I would care, and my heart would never know

    If I make another move there'll be no more turning back

    Because everything will change, and it all will fade to black

    Will tomorrow ever come? Will I make it through the night?

    Will there ever be a place for the broken in the light?

    Am I hurting? Am I sad? Should I stay, or should I go?

    I've forgotten how to tell. Did I ever even know?

    Can I take another step? I've done everything I can

    All the people that I see I will never understand

    If I find a way to change, if I step into the light

    Then I'll never be the same, and it all will fade to white

    Ever on and on I continue circling

    With nothing but my hate in a carousel of agony

    Till slowly I forget and my heart starts vanishing

    And suddenly I see that I can't break free--I'm

    Slipping through the cracks of a dark eternity

    With nothing but my pain and the paralyzing agony

    To tell me who I am, who I was

    Uncertainty enveloping my mind

    Till I can't break free, and

    Maybe it's a dream; maybe nothing else is real

    But it wouldn't mean a thing if I told you how I feel

    So I'm tired of all the pain, of the misery inside

    And I wish that I could live feeling nothing but the night

    You can tell me what to say; you can tell me where to go

    But I doubt that I would care, and my heart would never know

    If I make another move there'll be no more turning back

    Because everything will change, and it all will fade to black

    If I make another move, if I take another step

    Then it all would fall apart. There'd be nothing of me left

    If I'm crying in the wind, if I'm crying in the night

    Will there ever be a way? Will my heart return to white?

    Can you tell me who you are? Can you tell me where I am?

    I've forgotten how to see; I've forgotten if I can

    If I opened up my eyes there'd be no more going back

    'Cause I'd throw it all away, and it all would fade to black

    Artist: Cash Johnny Song: Sunday Morning Coming Down Well, I woke up Sunday morning With no way to hold my head that didn't hurt. And the beer I had for breakfast wasn't bad, So I had one more for dessert. Then I fumbled in my closet through my clothes And found my cleanest dirty shirt. Then I washed my face and combed my hair And stumbled down the stairs to meet the day. I'd smoked my mind the night before With cigarettes and songs I'd been picking. But I lit my first and watched a small kid Playing with a can that he was kicking. Then I walked across the street And caught the Sunday smell of someone frying chicken. And Lord, it took me back to something that I'd lost Somewhere, somehow along the way. On a Sunday morning sidewalk, I'm wishing, Lord, that I was stoned. 'Cause there's something in a Sunday That makes a body feel alone. And there's nothing short a' dying That's half as lonesome as the sound Of the sleeping city sidewalk And Sunday morning coming down. In the park I saw a daddy With a laughing little girl that he was swinging. And I stopped beside a Sunday school And listened to the songs they were singing. Then I headed down the street, And somewhere far away a lonely bell was ringing, And it echoed through the canyon Like the disappearing dreams of yesterday. On a Sunday morning sidewalk, I'm wishing, Lord, that I was stoned. 'Cause there's something in a Sunday That makes a body feel alone. And there's nothing short a' dying That's half as lonesome as the sound Of the sleeping city sidewalk And Sunday morning coming down

    One of the saddest songs I've ever heard is "Time" by The Alan Parsons Project. A magnificent video was created by You Tube's "Voyagersguidebook" as a tribute to the late actor Jon-Erik Hexum who died too young. This video is very sad because most of his fans thought he was going to be such a big star. My eyes watered when I saw this vid the first time. Listen to the lyrics..."Who knows when we shall meet again...If ever." You can check it out yourself. Here's the link.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cJwbkdl25Lo

    Here are the lyrics:

    Time

    Flowing like a river

    Time

    Beckoning me

    Who knows when we shall meet again

    If ever

    But time

    Keeps flowing like a river

    To the sea

    Goodbye my love

    Maybe for forever

    Goodbye my love

    The tide waits for me

    Who knows when we shall meet again

    If ever

    But time

    Keeps flowing like a river (on and on)

    To the sea, to the sea

    Till it's gone forever

    Gone forever

    Gone forevermore

    Goodbye my friends (goodbye my love, now I must leave)

    Maybe for forever

    Goodbye my friends (who knows when we shall meet again)

    The stars wait for me

    Who knows where we shall meet again

    If ever

    But time

    Keeps flowing like a river (on and on)

    To the sea, to the sea

    Till it's gone forever

    Gone forever

    Gone forevermore

    Forevermore

    Forevermore

    Forevermore

    "Fallen" - by Sarah McLachlan

    Heaven bent to take my hand

    And lead me through the fire

    Be the long awaited answer

    To a long and painful fight

    Truth be told I've tried my best

    But somewhere along the way

    I got caught up in all there was to offer

    And the cost was so much more than I could bear

    Though I've tried, I've fallen...

    I have sunk so low

    I have messed up

    Better I should know

    So don't come round here

    And tell me I told you so...

    We all begin with good intent

    Love was raw and young

    We believed that we could change ourselves

    The past could be undone

    But we carry on our backs the burden

    Time always reveals

    The lonely light of morning

    The wound that would not heal

    It's the bitter taste of losing everything

    That I have held so dear.

    I've fallen...

    I have sunk so low

    I have messed up

    Better I should know

    So don't come round here

    And tell me I told you so...

    Heaven bent to take my hand

    Nowhere left to turn

    I'm lost to those I thought were friends

    To everyone I know

    Oh they turned their heads embarassed

    Pretend that they don't see

    But it's one missed step

    You'll slip before you know it

    And there doesn't seem a way to be redeemed

    Though I've tried, I've fallen...

    I have sunk so low

    I have messed up

    Better I should know

    So don't come round here

    And tell me I told you so...

    Suicide Season by Bring Me The Horizon :

    We stare at broken clocks, the hands don't turn anymore

    The days turn into nights, empty hearts and empty places

    The day you lost him, I slowly lost you too

    For when he died, he took a part of you

    No time for farewells, no chances for goodbyes

    No explanations, no f**king reasons why

    I watched it eat you up, pieces fallen on the floor

    We stare at broken clocks, the hands don't turn anymore

    If only sorrow could build a staircase, or tears could show the way

    I would climb my way to Heaven, and bring him back home again

    Don't give up hope my friend, this is not the end

    We stare at broken clocks, the hands don't turn anymore

    The days turn into nights, empty hearts and empty places

    The day you lost him, I slowly lost you too

    For when he died, he took a part of you

    Death is only a chapter

    So let's rip out the pages of yesterday

    Death is only a horizon

    And I'm ready for my sun...

    I'm ready for my sun to...

    I'm ready for my sun...

    I'm ready for my sun to set

    This is suicide season!

    If only sorrow could build a staircase, or tears could show the way

    We would climb our way to Heaven, and bring him home again

    If only sorrow could build a staircase, or tears could show the way

    We would climb our way to Heaven, and bring him home again

    If only sorrow could build a staircase, or tears could show the way

    We would climb our way to Heaven, and bring him home again

    We would do anything to bring him back to you

    We would do anything to end what you're going through

    If only sorrow could build a staircase, or tears could show the way

    I would climb my way to Heaven, and bring him home again

    I would do anything to bring him back to you

    Because if you got him back, I would get back the friend that I once knew

    If I die young bury me in satin

    Lay me down on a bed of roses

    Sink me in the river at dawn

    Send me away with the words of a love song

    oh oh oh oh

    Lord make me a rainbow, I’ll shine down on my mother

    She'll know I’m safe with you when she stands under my colors, oh and

    Life ain't always what you think it ought to be, no

    ain't even grey, but she buries her baby

    The sharp knife of a short life, well

    I’ve had just enough time

    If I die young bury me in satin

    Lay me down on a bed of roses

    Sink me in the river at dawn

    Send me away with the words of a love song

    The sharp knife of a short life, well

    I’ve had just enough time

    And I’ll be wearing white when I come into your kingdom

    I’m as green as the ring on my little cold finger

    I’ve never known the lovin' of a man

    But it sure felt nice when he was holding my hand

    There’s a boy here in town says he’ll love me forever

    Who would have thought forever could be severed by

    The sharp knife of a short life, well

    I’ve had just enough time

    So put on your best boys and I’ll wear my pearls

    What I never did is done

    A penny for my thoughts, oh no I’ll sell them for a dollar

    They're worth so much more after I’m a goner

    Find More lyrics at www.sweetslyrics.com

    And maybe then you’ll hear the words I been singin’

    Funny when you're dead how people start listenin’

    If I die young bury me in satin

    Lay me down on a bed of roses

    Sink me in the river at dawn

    Send me away with the words of a love song

    oh oh

    The ballad of a dove

    Go with peace and love

    Gather up your tears, keep ‘em in your pocket

    Save them for a time when your really gonna need 'em oh

    The sharp knife of a short life, well

    I’ve had just enough time

    So put on your best boys and I’ll wear my pearls
