I don't really know of that many sad songs, but a song I really like is "Yes, the River Knows" - by the Doors. I'm pretty sure it's about suicide, well it is atleast partially, but it's actually a really pretty song. The part that is saying "I'm going but I need a little time".... I can just understand that so unusually well.
Oh my god that song is so beautiful... I haven't listened to the doors in a while, I was going through really tough times while I was obsessed with them, and now I have bad memories. But Waiting for the Sun is still one of my favourite albums ever, and that song moved me miles.
One of my favourite sad songs is something that I recorded one night when I was really down. Its on my myspace, and its the last song on the list ( I have a band page for my music but I use it personally)called "Searching for Yesterday" Cliche title I know but its an old one and I was younger when I recorded it... I still love it.
