Saddest song ever



You're All I Need Lyrics
The blade of my knife
Faced away from your heart
Those last few nights
It turned and sliced you apart
This love that I tell
Now feels lonely as hell
From this padded prison cell

So many times I said
You'd only be mine
I gave my blood and my tears
And loved you cyanide
When you took my lips
I took your breath
Sometimes love's better off dead

You're all I need, make you only mine
I loved you so I set you free
I had to take your life
You're all I need, you're all I need
You're all I need, And I loved you so
But you didn't love me
Laid out cold, Now we're both alone
But killing you helped me keep you home
I guess it was bad
Cause love can be sad
But we finally made the news

Tied up smiling
I thought you were happy
Never opened your eyes
I thought you were napping
I got so much to learn
About love in this world
But we finally made the news

You're all I need, make you only mine
I loved you So I set you free
I had to take your life
You're all I need, you're all I need
You're all I need and I loved you so
So I put you to sleep

You're all I need, make you only mine
You're all I need, you're all I need
You're all I need, you're all I need
All I need, you're all I need
All I need, you're all I need
You're all I need, you're all I need
 
@Overpressure I conjecture your cynical reaction to songs that mention heaven might involve what i think i remember as your well defended rationalist/materialist stance? Well i agree that promises of heaven are a cop out, but what if

1) Spinoza was right and there is really ultimately only 1 "substance" and we are all a part of this.

1a) Time is an aspect of that "substance"

2) The multiverse is conscious in a way you have yet to sense or measure.

Relevant to this thread it then follows that sadness is eternal. (Which is perhaps why @Haj01 tries real hard to stay happy.)

1) and 1a) are very easily defendable in our mundane language and 4 dimensions.

Statement 2) is something some people recieve as a gift in part or in whole. When they get just a part gifted they found world religions.

Of course it could all be just a lightshow in the brain, but there are pathways in the brain you can access that for a moment show you a flash of the whole fucking thing and it is quite sad and quite happy and everything is alive, dying.

Human music I believe is a particularly important creation that helps structure everything.

Still for pure sadness I cant top Marie yet, but Buffy St. Marie comes close with this the saddest christmas song...

Holy moly, way to overanalyze.
I just think it's a shitty, sappy song.
 
Antimatter has a bunch of really sad songs





And of course this always gives me the feels, not so much the song but what it brings to mind
 
You know a song has a deep impact when it ends the innocence of AJ Soprano and Morty Smith.

 
Why is everybody picking the most hipster songs and avoiding the obvious Mainstream sad songs? lol.


It's like everybody wants to pick the rarest sad songs to get some of that sherbro hipster credit.

Maybe it's because there's more too music than the radio?
 

For a more mainstream song I'll go with this one. It's broken my heart ever since it came out in 1980.
Yeah, I know, I'm an old dude. LOL.
