saddest lyric? Hmmm, let me think!! There are a lot of lyrics that aren't really that sad in itself, but are sad to me because of how they sound, and the music and stuff... but here's a good one...
"You look like the real thing, you taste like the real thing, my fake plastic LOVE!!!" - Radiohead - Fake Plastic Trees
when he sings my fake plastic love, I'm gone... it's totally heart breaking to me...

the lyrics to paranoid android are pretty depressing...
"raaaain down, raaaain doooown, come on raaain down on me. from a great height, froom a greeeeaaaaat heeeeiiiight, heeeeeiiight."

oh, another one is Release by the Afro Celt Soundsystem... right before they recorded this album, a member of their band was killed, and this song (which is partly sung by Sinead O'Connor) was written through the point of view of the killed band member... it's like he's speaking to the living members... it's really moving!!

sorry, but you really have to read the whole song Radiohead-Worrywort
You don't want to talk to me You don't want to say the words Trying to get off the hook Trying to get off the hook Spinning on a pin Hanging off a hook Trying to get yourself away Trying to get yourself away There's no use dwelling on On what might have been Just think of all the fun You could be having We the way you talk We know what you want We know what you want What you really want Take a look around The candles on the cake On what might have been The road you should have took Mistakes mistaken There's no use dwelling on No use dwelling on It's such a beautiful day It's such a beautiful day Find yourself a moment And go and get some wings It's such a beautiful day It's such a beautiful day Go up turning round Go up turning round Go and get some wings

Lp5 is definitely a sad album (no pun intended) - its also their foremost though-of-as-radiohead cd. coincidence?

Judas As Black Moth
I can't hear the voice, I can't see the form, The wallpaper peeling, Let the walls down, And the bone answers: "Eternity", to my question: when? what time is it? what place is this? which conjunction is this? All this waste.. Where the clocks tick away all around What hour is this in the middle of the night? The cats cry in the street The car sweeps by with a murdered child The car sweeps by with a violated girl The car sweeps by with its trunkful of death... do you believe in God? do you believe in Christ? What monsters we've become This flight from eaves will finally kill us all when all we need is something.. let us lie, and sleep, and dream other dreams brighter dreams better dreams please

Current 93 is my absolute favorite of all time. The music isn't really depressing, it instills a sense of meloncholic grandeur... if that makes sense to anyone else.
There's always a small shaft of light spilling in from a tiny window..

"No I Can't Lose You" from the song by Type O Negative entitled "Can't Lose You". . . this song is so unbelievably sad, and TON are an absolutely INCREDIBLE band. I'm not ever going to be into goth/thrasher metal music but this will always be one of my favourite bands ever.

Listen to the song itself and you'll understand why that simple lyric line is so irrevocably sad; in fact, alot of Type O Negative songs are sad. They're a very depressign band, in truth.

Red House Painters - 24
so it's not loaded stadiums or ballparks and we're not kids on swingsets on the blacktop and i thought at fifteen that i'd have it down by sixteen and twenty-four keeps breathing in my face like a mad whore and twenty-four keeps pounding at my door like a friend you don't want to see oldness comes with a smile to every love given child oldness comes to rile the youth who dream suicide

San Francisco band fronted by Mark Kozalek. I think they are still together, but he has some solo stuff as well. The early albums are really depressing stuff, good for a breakup or rainy day.

Daddy by Korn. This song can leave you tears it's so moving (the singer actually screams out his pain and bursts into tears at the end of the song, shouting words directed at the man who raped him as a child). it's sad, angry & very open...just makes you think what a horrible world we live in, some people are monsters >(
lyrics:
Mother please forgive me I just had to get out all my pain and suffering Now that I am done, remember I will always love you I'm your son
Little child, looking so pretty Come out and play, I'll be your daddy Innocent child, looking so sweet A rape in my eyes and on your flesh I'll eat
You've raped! I feel dirty [I feel daddy] [I fear daddy] It hurt! As a child Tied down! That's a good boy And fucked! Your own child I scream! No one hears me It hurt! I'm not alive [not a lie] My God! Saw you watching Mommy why?! Your own child {The third time this section is sung, 'Mother' is repeated in the background}
It's alright
I didn't touch you there Mama said she didn't care I didn't touch you there That's why mama stopped and stared
this is where he is crying:
I fucking hate you! Mother fucker! Mother Fucker! I fucking hate you! Fuck You! You son of a bitch, you fucking ruined my life! I wanted to die! I'm sick of it, mother fucker . . . oh oh Why'd you fuck'n do it to me? I Hate You! I Fuck'n Hate You! I Hate You! Piece of shit! Why?! I Hate You!
{The woman's voice in the background} When I awake, I'll see your face When I awake, I'll see your light Mother wake me from my dream Mother wake me in the . . .

K a t y S o n g
some escape some door to open this path seems the blackest but i guess it's the soonest but there in the clearing i know you'll be wearing your young aching smile and waving your hand can't go with my heart when i can't feel what's in it i thought you'd come over but for some reason you didn't glass on the pavement under my shoe without you is all my life amounts to
a final sleep no words from my cutting mouth to your ear or taut wicked pinches from my fingers to your bitter face that i can't heal i know tomorrow you will be somewhere in london living with someone you've got some kind of family there to turn to and that's more than i could ever give you
a chance for calm a hope for freedom outlet from my cold solitary kingdom by the forest of our spring stay where you walked away and left a bleeding part of me empty and bothered watching the water quiet in the corner numb and falling through without you what does my life amount to?
This song is by Red House Painters-if you like sad and depressing songs then check this band out. you will be heaven...or hell depending on the way you look at it.

I hear about small doses at a time. I used to hunt for bands like RHP (lullaby for the working class, smog, etc..) now it just gets to be to much. its kind of funny...both of the rhp songs that we posted I used to listen to religiously. I just turned 24 the other day and my ex girlfriend (Katy) of four years just moved out about a month ago. she left a month before my planned proposal(had a ring too). when I was younger I used to eat songs like the forementioned up. now when the lyrics hit to close to home I can't even work up the courage to listen just once.

12 Rounds — Barbed Wire Hair
don't know if it's the saddest song i know, but it's the one i can most relate to when i'm feeling depressed... it's not really dramatic, maybe it's a little more about being a lost soul, hopeless... but... i don't want to argument, it's just how i feel :)
Obscene fantasy spins in my mind I'm going nowhere Love the way I feel when I am lost In your Barbed Wire Hair I am cut on Silky breath My dear my heart keeps racing Sewer in this mind Don't care much for this Life I'm facing Give me back my sugar cane Kept me up Kept me sane Feel no sunshine Feel no rain Don't know if I'll ever Love again... Mirror to my mind You seemed so kind My trust's unerring Messed her head up real good Do you find that life's disturbing? I'm so tired most of the time My heart keeps twisting burning Gut implodes on ice I want now that This world stops turning Give me back my sugar cane Kept me up Kept me sane Feel no sunshine Feel no rain Don't know if I'll ever Love again... I promise please Down on my knees I'll be your whore Just give me More...Give me back my sugar cane Kept me up Kept me sane Feel no sunshine Feel no rain Don't know if I'll ever Love again...Don't know Will I ever love again?

some very dramatic lyrics by Goldfinger:
"My Girlfriend's Shower Sucks"
The temperature changes It chills me to the bone It makes me wish that I was cleaning myself at home It makes me grumpy and sometimes I lose hope The water's hard, so I can never rinse the soap and it's got no pressure The water dribbles down on me and it's got no pressure It's like the shower's going pee
moving, eh? :.(

Marilyn Manson - Last day on Earth
Yesterday was a million years ago In all my past lives I played an asshole Now I found you, it's almost too late And this earth seems obliviating We are trembling in our crutches High and dead our skin is glass I'm so empty here without I crack and split my xerox hands
I know it's the last day on earth We'll be together while the planet dies I know it's the last day on earth We'll never say goodbye
The dogs slaughter each other softly Love burns it's casualties We are damaged provider modules Spill the seeds at our children's feet I'm so empty here without you I know they want me dead
I know it's the last day on earth (chorus repeat)

Marilyn Manson - Coma White
Something is cold and blank behind her smile She's standing on an overpass In her miracle mile (coma): "You were from a perfect world A world that threw me away today Today to run away"
A pill to make you numb A pill to make you dumb A pill to make you anybody else But all the drugs in this world Won't save her from herself
Her mouth was an empty cut And she was waiting to fall Just bleeding like a polaroid that Lost all her dolls (coma): "You were from a perfect world A world that threw me away today Today to run away"
A pill to make you numb A pill to make you dumb (chorus repeat)
