Nearly everyone knows a song that makes them sad or cry, because of the sad lyrics or the singer.

So tell me, whats yours & why?
You could also post the lyrics. C:

I have quite a few actually.
Like:

Aaliyah - Miss you, mostly because it's just such a sad song and knowing that she's dead now breaks my heart. :C

Tupac - Dear Mama, can't really explain, you should really listen to it to understand it.

Tupac - Brenda's got a baby, i think the lyrics say enough:

Brenda's got a Baby
Brenda's got a Baby

I hear Brenda's got a baby
Well, Brenda's barely got a brain
A damn shame
Tha girl can hardly spell her name
(That's not her problem, that's up ta Brenda's family)
Well let me show ya how it affects tha whole community
Now Brenda never really knew her moms and her dad was a junky
Went in debt to his arms, it's sad
Cause I bet Brenda doesn't even know
Just cause your in tha ghetto doesn't mean ya can't grow
But oh, that's a thought, my own revelation
Do whatever it takes ta resist tha temptation
Brenda got herself a boyfriend
Her boyfriend was her cousin, now lets watch tha joy end
She tried to hide her pregnancy, from her family
Who didn't really care to see, or give a damn if she
Went out and had a church of kids
As long as when tha check came they got first dibs
Now Brendas belly is gettin bigger
But no one seems ta notice any change in her figure
She's 12 years old and she's having a baby
In love with tha molester, who's sexing her crazy
And yet she thinks that he'll be with her forever
And dreams of a world with tha two of them are together, whatever
He left her and she had tha baby solo, she had it on tha bathroom floor
And didn't know so, she didn't know, what ta throw away and what ta keep
She wrapped tha baby up and threw him in tha trash heep
I guess she thought she'd get away
Wouldn't hear tha cries
She didn't realize
How much tha tha little baby had her eyes
Now tha babys in tha trash heep balling
Momma can't help her, but it hurts ta hear her calling
Brenda wants ta run away
Momma say, you makin' me lose pay, tha social workers here everyday
Now Brenda's gotta make her own way
Can't go to her family, they won't let her stay
No money no babysitter, she couldn't keep a job
She tried ta sell crack, but end up getting robbed
So now what's next, there ain't nothin left ta sell
So she sees sex as a way of leavin hell
It's payin tha rent, so she really can't complain
Prostitute, fair slang, and Brenda's her name, she's got a baby.

Omg the titanic song makes me so sad D:

loreena mckennitt - dante's prayer

it's just that beautiful

Wheel of Fortune, from the soundtrack of Shadow Hearts: From the New World. It doesn't have any lyrics, but it's always seemed like a beautifully sad song.

• The song "Chasing Cars" by Snow Patrol tends to make me cry every time I hear it. It's a beautiful song though.
  
  On a side not you might want to put those lyrics into quotes, or you risk loosing gold :P. Also, music forum might get even more responses xD.

The song Proud of Your Boy from Aladin makes me really sad.

Proud of your boy
I'll make you proud of your boy
Believe me, bad as I've been, Ma
You're in for a pleasant surprise

I've wasted time
I've wasted me
So say I'm slow for my age
A late bloomer, Okay, I agree

That I've been one rotten kid
Some son, some pride and some joy
But I'll get over these lousin' up
Messin' up, screwin' up times

You'll see, Ma, now comes the better part
Someone's gonna make good
Cross his stupid heart
Make good and finally make you
Proud of your boy

Tell me that I've been a louse and loafer
You won't get a fight here, no ma'am
Say I'm a goldbrick, a goof-off, no good
But that couldn't be all that I am

Water flows under the bridge
Let it pass, let it go
There's no good reason that you should believe me
Not yet, I know, but

Someday and soon
I'll make you proud of your boy
Though I can't make myself taller
Or smarter or handsome or wise

I'll do my best, what else can I do ?
Since I wasn't born perfect like Dad or you
Mom, I will try to
Try hard to make you
Proud of your boy.

This song always makes me sad, but in a good way, if that makes sense.

Punchline, "For the second time"

this bed has too much room
i might need another cover
these seems to be so much food
and i'm used to empty cupboards

i remember when the days seemed so short
when everything was so right
and now you're gone and my most wanted
the only thing in sight

but then i woke up to nothing
and you seemed more dead than i could ever be
so when you wake up to nothing
i'll leave your life
for the second time

be careful in this cold
this bridge might stay icy
and if i'm not there and don't hear a sound
just like that in the night
this is burning bridge falls down

i remember when the days seemed so short
when everything was so right
and now you're gone and my most wanted
this all ends tonight
right now

then i woke up to nothing
and you seemed more dead than i could ever be
so when you wake up to nothing
i'll leave your life for the second time

its all been said before
but this is my own outlook and my own curse
in years i'll laugh upon looking back
from the best to just dust on a box sealed shut
now blow away

It reminds me of bad times, and being sad about them for a while. Then calming down, only to wake up the next morning to re-realize the fact, and be sad all over again.

oh, i nearly forgot, a lot of dashboard confessional songs get me crying, lol, regina spektor's samson, and songs from the crash soundtrack

Butterfly Kisses

Don't know who wrote/sung it. I heard it late one night and it just got to me.

I've forgotten most of the lyrics but they were about a father's relationship with his daughter and his saddness at watching her grow up and grow apart from him.

Hm, probably "Never Alone" by Barlow Girls, only because I saw a really REALLY sad AMV to that song. D:
Lyrics:

I waited for You today
but You didn't show
no no no
I needed you today
so where did you go?

You told me to call
said You'd be there
and though I haven't seen You
are You still there?

chorus:
I cried out with no reply
and I can't feel You
by my side so
I'll hold tight to what I know
You're here and i'm never alone

I know I can not see You
and I can't explain why
such a deep reassurance
You placed in my life, woah

we cannot seperate
'cause You're a part of me
and though You're invisible
I'll trust the unseen

chorus

we cannot seperate
You're a part of me
and though You're invisible
I'll trust the unseen

chorus

Alot of Nirvana songs make me feel sad and almost make me cry. Which isnt that surprisingly really. Erm Heart Shaped Box, Polly, and Where did you Sleep Last Night in particular.

Radiohead also makes me cry, especially Creep. D:

Edit: Also to all those posting lyrics, please quote them otherwise they might be considered spam.

This song makes me sad in a good way too.

"She's Got A Boyfriend Now"

She used to be the happiest girl I knew
I remember seeing her laugh
I remember the time she cried
When tears filled her eyes
As we sang 'Love Song' by Tesla
Her smile is turning upside down
She's got a boyfriend now

[Chorus:]
She's got a boyfriend now
And it's hard to see
What she's got herself into
She's getting used to
The loneliness that's bottled up
Inside she knows
She'll stick right through the sad times
And all the bad times
Cuz it's up to her to make some sense somehow
She's got a boyfriend now

She always knew she'd find the right guy
To hold her through the night
Someone she'd take to meet her mom
And take her to see Brittany Spears
Who knows if Clark Kent is a Superman?
Or if he's just an asshole
Leading on and on
And on and on
And on

[Chorus]

Why does it always seem to be
Guys like that always get to be the one
She thinks the world of
And why does it always seem to me
That girls like that can't ever find someone
Someone like me
And its hard to know the difference between inside and out
When she asks if I can mend her broken heart
I wouldn't know where to start.

She got what she always wanted
She got what she always wanted
And now

She's only crying on the inside

[Chorus]

I just love it.

This is in the wrong forum so i shall be moving it to the Music Sub-forum, which can be found in the Media forum.

Everything, by Lifehouse. I don't even know why it makes me tear up. Just... when the song reaches its climax, I get tears in my eyes. It's the only song that has ever done that to me.

Find Me Here
Speak To Me
I want to feel you
I need to hear you
You are the light
That's leading me
To the place where I find peace again.

You are the strength, that keeps me walking.
You are the hope, that keeps me trusting.
You are the light to my soul.
You are my purpose...you're everything.

How can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?

You calm the storms, and you give me rest.
You hold me in your hands, you won't let me fall.
You steal my heart, and you take my breath away.
Would you take me in? Take me deeper now?

How can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?
And how can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?

Cause you're all I want, You're all I need
You're everything,everything
You're all I want your all I need
You're everything, everything.
You're all I want you're all I need.
You're everything, everything
You're all I want you're all I need, you're everything, everything.

And How can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?
How can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?

How can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?

Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?

Lonely Day by System of a Down. It's beautiful. v.v
There was a Gaara AMV to it on YouTube, which made me cry even more. >.<

"Ed Ero Contentissimo" Tiziano Ferro

Ora che sarai un po' sola
Tra il lavoro e le lenzuola
Presto dimmi tu come farai
Ora che tutto va a caso
Ora non sono più un peso
Dimmi quali scuse inventerai

Inventerai che non hai tempo
Inventerai che tutto è spento
Inventerai che ora ti ami un po' di più
Inventerai che ora sei forte
E chiuderai tutte le porte
Ridendo troverai una scusa
Una in più

Ed ero contentissimo in ritardo sotto casa ed io che ti aspettavo
Stringimi la mano e poi partiamo…
In fondo eri contentissima quando guardando Amsterdam non ti importava
della pioggia che cadeva…
solo una candela era bellissima
e il ricordo del ricordo che ci suggeriva
che comunque tardi o prima ti dirò
che ero contentissimo
ma non te l'ho mai detto che chiedevo
Dio ancora
Ancora
Ancora

Qualche cosa ti consola
Con gli amici il tempo vola
Ma qualcosa che non torna c' è
C' è che ho freddo e non mi copro
C' è che tanto prima o dopo
Convincendoti ci crederai

Ci crederai che fa più caldo
Da quando non mi hai ormai più accanto
E forse è meglio
perché sorridi un po' di po' di più
[ Ed Ero Contentissimo lyrics found on http://www.completealbumlyrics.com ]
un po' di più…

Ed ero contentissimo in ritardo sotto casa ed io che ti aspettavo
Stringimi la mano e poi partiamo…
In fondo eri contentissima quando guardando Amsterdam non ti importava
della pioggia che cadeva…
solo una candela era bellissima
e il ricordo del ricordo che ci suggeriva
che comunque tardi o prima ti dirò
che ero contentissimo
ma non te l'ho mai detto che chiedevo
Dio ancora
Ancora
Ancora
Ancora

E il mio ricordo ti verrÃz a trovare quando starai troppo male
Quando invece starai bene resterò a guardare
Perché ciò che ho sempre chiesto al cielo
È che questa vita ti donasse gioia e amore vero
E in fondo

Ed ero contentissimo in ritardo sotto casa ed io che ti aspettavo
Stringimi la mano e poi partiamo…
In fondo eri contentissima quando guardando Amsterdam non ti importava
della pioggia che cadeva…
solo una candela era bellissima
e il ricordo del ricordo che ci suggeriva
che comunque tardi o prima ti dirò
che ero contentissimo
ma non te l'ho mai detto che chiedevo
Dio ancora
Ancora
Ancora

Ed ero contentissimo ma non te l' ho mai detto
E dentro urlavo
Dio ancora
Ancora
Ancora

Most of you wont know what he's talking about, but basically it talks about he used to be happy or content with this girl and stuff. I don't know if you really want to know more about it you can translate it or something. lol

A LOT of songs make me cry...lately, I can't listen to Tears by X JAPAN or Without You by Yoshiki without getting misty-eyed. Story by Gackt is another on that makes me go all ;-;. Something about piano without any vocals gets me, I suppose.

Reila by The GazettE.
The end really gets me </3


And also Fantasy and Ruri No Ame by alice nine. (Mainly because they''re absolutely beautiful songs)


And Shizuku by Kagrra,

"Black Parade", by My
Chemical Romance.
It's such a beautiful song,
and the day I got it on my
iPod and listened to it,
I literally cried.

Tears In Heaven by Eric Clapton made me cry alot after my grandpa died.

Would you know my name
If I saw you in heaven?
Will it be the same
If I saw you in heaven?
I must be strong, and carry on
Cause I know I don't belong
Here in heaven

Would you hold my hand
If I saw you in heaven?
Would you help me stand
If I saw you in heaven?
I'll find my way, through night and day
Cause I know I just can't stay
Here in heaven

(That's not all of it, but you get the point)

Also, Cry Baby by Janis Joplin has made me cry. But I was more crying because of something else. But it sort of felt like Janis was telling me to let it out, so I just started bawling. But the song did have alot of relevance, to be honest. Not 100%, but some.

I know she told you that she loved you
Much more than I do,
But I know she left you,
And you swear that you just don't know why.
Well, you know that I'll always be 'round.
If you ever want me,
Come on and cry, cry baby, cry baby, cry baby, yeah,
Oh, like you always seem to do.

Don't you know,
Honey, nobody ever gonna love you
The way I try to do?
Who'll be willing to take your pain,
And all your heartache, too?
Honey, I swear I'll always, I'll always be around
If you ever want me
Come on and cry, cry baby, cry baby, yeah, cry baby, yeah

(Again, that's not the whole song. But I don't want to stretch the whole page when two verses can sum up the song)
Plenty of other songs make me sad, though.

November Rain by Guns & Roses
It is just a completely sad song.

That song from the movie Dumbo, where Dumbo's mom was rocking him in her trunk. I think it was called "Baby of mine" or something close to that. That song mixed with that scene was sad.

I don't have any songs that make me cry; but I do have one that makes me sad (though I love it). The song is "Kasumi" (Mystery/ Confusion/hazed) by Dir en Grey. The lyrics say it all.
here is the translation:

You were crying with an apple candy in one hand... walking into the twilight
"Where's Mommy?" your eyes the shape of the moon burn inside my head and I hold you.

It's August, when the insects start to cry at the sensu shop on the Gion Hill.
The happy month of May that this child is looking foward to will not come.

Paper balloons fly high in the sky.
There, the tears overflow with the memories of the red candy ball as it melts together until it's gone.

I wake up at 4 o'clock in the morning by the sound of a small cry.
I put the child to sleep by reading the child's favorite book. Good Bye.

Paper balloons fly high in the sky.
There the tears overflow with the memories of the red candy ball as it melts together until it's gone.
How many more years will it take for the tears to be all gone? The sun sets, underneath the burial is
the truth and...

13 o'clock in the afternoon, not a single sound of the wind can be heard. Her body, still to this day,
lie very guiet, underneath the tatami.

That really was a sad song. I cried a little bit when I was kid because of that scene.

I have a lot of songs that make me sad, but right now the one that makes me sad the most is: "I Would Die For That" by Kellie Coffey
It's about infertility.

Here's a link: http://youtube.com/watch?v=JqfGqOx2iDQ

Good-Bye Days.
It's in japanese but you can find it subbed.
I love the tune.
But it's a sad tune T_T.
