Depressing Song Lyrics

Postby Spit » Thu Apr 05, 2007 6:28 am

Some songs are not only sad but just downright depressing .Here are some of the lyrics from a song that I think fits in this category.

"The sleep is still in my eyes
The dream is still in my head
I heave a sigh and sadly smile
And lie a while in bed
I wish that it might come to pass
Not fade like all my dreams
Just think of what my life might be
In a world like I have seen
I don't think I can carry on
Carry on this cold and empty life
My spirits are low in the depths of despair
My lifeblood , Spills over"


Man ,talk about a downer.Anyone else what to share a few lyrics from a depressing song ?If not, just list the song or songs.

- - - - - - - - - - -
By my standards , this is deep and well thought out .

Plainsong - The Cure

I think its dark and it looks like rain she said
and its almost out there like its the end of the world she said

sometimes you make me feel like im living at the edge of the world...
and i just smile ....

Somethig like that. [:D]

<u>Everyday Is Like Sunday</u>

[i]Trudging slowly over wet sand
Back to the bench where your clothes were stolen
This is the coastal town
That they forgot to close down
Armageddon - come armageddon!
Come, armageddon! come!

Everyday is like sunday
Everyday is silent and grey[/i]

That about sums up how I feel when depressed...

Artist: The Smiths
Album: Louder Than Bombs
Year: 1987
Title: Unlovable

Lyrics by Stephen Morrissey
Music by Johnny Marr

Oh ...
I know I'm unloveable
You don't have to tell me
I don't have much in my life
But take it - it's yours
I don't have much in my life
But take it - it's yours
Oh ...

I know I'm unloveable
You don't have to tell me
Oh, message received
Loud and clear
Loud and clear
I don't have much in my life
But take it - it's yours

I know I'm unloveable
You don't have to tell me
For message received
Loud and clear
Loud and clear
Message received
I don't have much in my life
But take it - it's yours

I wear Black on the outside
'Cause Black is how I feel on the inside
I wear Black on the outside
'Cause Black is how I feel on the inside

And if I seem a little strange
Well, that's because I am
If I seem a little strange
That's because I am

But I know that you would like me
If only you could see me
If only you could meet me

Oh ...
I don't have much in my life
But take it - it's yours
I don't have much in my life
But take it - it's yours
Mmm ...
Oh ...

Somebody By Depeche Mode

I want somebody to share
Share the rest of my life
Share my innermost thoughts
Know my intimate details
Someone wholl stand by my side
And give me support
And in return
Shell get my support
She will listen to me
When I want to speak
About the world we live in
And life in general
Though my views may be wrong
They may even be perverted
Shell hear me out
And wont easily be converted
To my way of thinking
In fact shell often disagree
But at the end of it all
She will understand me
Aaaahhhhh....

I want somebody who cares
For me passionately
With every thought and
With every breath
Someone wholl help me see things
In a different light
All the things I detest
I will almost like
I dont want to be tied
To anyones strings
Im carefully trying to steer clear of
Those things
But when Im asleep
I want somebody
Who will put their arms around me
And kiss me tenderly
Though things like this
Make me sick
In a case like this
Ill get away with it
Aaaahhhhh....

Sunday Morning Fever by The Loved Ones

I know something you don't know (x2)
And I think it's going to kill you
I think you're going to die

Morressy's "Every Day Is Like Sunday."

I get all sad and goose-bumped over it, even though I love the hauting melody, and the song in general--it's still depressing as bloddy hell...
