    The title explains it all, link us some of the most depressing shit you know. Make us bawl yo.

    Here's some of mine. I'll probably update this list once I think of more.

    Obligatory Opeth, the masters of depressing as fuck music.

    This song makes me not want to even exist sometimes tbh.

    I'll post more eventually.

    Btw. you can click on my signature, that song is really dark too (not hard to figure out from the lyrics obviously).

    And if you translate the lyrics to the song right before it (La Mer), it's even more depressing.

    And when the day arrives
    I'll become the sky
    And I'll become the sea

    And the sea will come to kiss me
    For I am going home

    Nothing can stop me now



    Then when you add to the fact that Trent locked himself away to make this album and was considering suicide at the time....

    ^ That's pretty much the only Red song I like, and it's pretty damn good.

    I'll post two songs since they're from the same band.

    [video=youtube;3J5mE-J1WLk]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3J5mE-J1WLk[/video]

    Goner is certainly the sadder of the two, and the one I prefer. The ending is phenomenal.

    [video=youtube;92XVwY54h5k]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=92XVwY54h5k[/video]

    Another amazing ending for this one.

    Pretty much a majority of La Dispute's discography but especially:

    You stole my thunder with these ones. I was going to mention these two, and a number of other songs in Sufjan Stevens' discography.

    A song about the main character dying in a car crash and how her death affects her loved ones days, months, and years after.

    Revive.

    This song. Much feels. Extremely unique lyrics, too.

    EDIT: Listen to Bawa's version.

    Woops, I didn't even notice the tempo and pitch shift! I just chose a video, grabbed a link, and posted it here. I hadn't even listened to it. Those lyrics aren't right though.

    And to get a little off topic here, I absolutely love this album. Has some really solid messages and themes on it.
