How about a sad song to help me get further down
So down like I’m drowning, so down like I’m dying
How about a song to pull the rug from under me
When I was O.K, when I was sane
When I found my way, Yeah
How about a warning when the body’s already dowsed
And It’s ready for burning, to late to learn
How about a reunion when everybody’s gone away
They don’t want to see you, They don’t want to find out that you’re doing

O.K
Will you be the first one when things get me down
Will you be the first one to bring me around
Resurrect my sense of believing
Cause’ I sure could use the feeling
Got to get a handle, got to climb up another rung
I’m tired of being down, I don’t want to drown
I’m gonna walk, gonna walk, like a walking time bomb
I don’t want to go off, but I will if I’m forced to run
Will you be the first one when things get me down
Will you be the first one to bring me around
Resurrect my sense of believing
Cause’ I sure could use the feeling
Something in the way I feel, makes me want to run
There’s something in the way you lead me.
That stop’s my head from making my body go
How about a sad song to make me get further down
Got to get ahead got to climb another rung
Will you be the first one when things get me down
Will you be the first one to bring me around
Resurrect my sense of healing, Cause’ I sure could use it
Will you be the first one when things get me down
Will you be the first one to bring me around
Resurrect my sense of believing
Cause’ I sure could use the feeling

I identify to this song SO MUCH. I don't know how many times it's made me cry. I know that not many people find Courtney Love very likeable but to me she's amazing. And this is one of my all time favorite songs... Amazing lyrics.

YouTube - ‪Courtney Love - Letter to God live‬‏

Lyrics:

Oh dear god I’m writing this letter to you
Cause I don’t have a clue
Can you help me?

I’m sitting here
Simply trying to figure out
What my life’s all about it
Can you tell me?

I never wanted to be
The person you see
Won’t you tell me who I am?

I always wanted to die
But you kept me alive
Please tell me who I am

I lie awake conducting this symphony,
That you have gifted to me,
but I don't ever sleep

Don’t get mad
Cause I get weak inside
And I start to fall apart
Cause I feel nothing

I never wanted to be
Some kind of comic relief
Please show me who I am

I been tortured and scorned
Since the day that I was born
But I don’t know who I am

And I thank you man for everything
Sorry I’m so frightened about all of this
Oh I wish I could give you more

But all the lights are shining down on me
And I feel violated by it all

I never wanted to be
The person you see but thank you
Oh god please tell me now
Are you disappointed or are you proud
I’ve been also EVRYTHING, EVRYTHING!

I’m so sorry I’m so weak
And I turned into a freak
But I don’t know ANYTHING, ANYTHING!

I’ve lost all self-esteem
A million, everything
And I feel NOTHING, NOTHING!

Oh god please tell me now
God please tell me now
Cause I feel nothing

Oh dear god I’m writing this letter to you
Cause I’m coming undone
Please help me, me

Ok, the two songs I'm going to share are about mental illness. The first one is originally sang in German but later the translated into English and that's the one I'll be shown you and are by a German band called Oomph, it's about a girl who has schizophrenia and hears voices in her head. It's actually one of the band members nieces. and the second is a man who has been in the darkness for so long and also has a mental illness. First ones called Labyrinth and the second is beyond the realms of death. Enjoy! really, really awesome songs. YouTube - ‪Oomph! - Truth or Dare - 05 - Labyrinth‬‏ YouTube - ‪Beyond the Realms of Death - Judas Priest‬‏

Yeah I love them! Honestly I like a lot of German bands and Japanese/Korean music I find it better then the American crap... well unless it's Led zeppelin or Atreyu... and maybe some others lol Like Our lady peace or 3 doors down.. Ok, I like all music but I do prefer subtitles on my music. ::p:

Correction Our lady peace is Canadian. :p and Led zeppelin is British.

I love Amorphis, one of my favorite bands :)

Here's my pick for saddest song with another favorite band of mine:

YouTube - ‪Kamelot - Abandoned‬‏

Lyrics:

Once my life was plain and clear
I recall
Once my ignorance was bliss
Nightfall came
Like a serpent’s kiss
To my troubled mind

Why... Oh why my God
Have you abandoned me in my sobriety
Behind the old façade
I'm your bewildered child
So take me cross the river wide

Binding promisses were made on my soul
Grand illusions lead astray
Ice cold winds swept my heart away
Bring me back to you

Why... Oh why my God
Have you abandoned me in my sobriety
Behind the old façade
I'm your bewildered child
So take me cross the river wide

-- Helena --
I remember a song
Like in a dream
Where September was long
And winter unreal

Why... Oh why my God above
Have you abandoned me in my sobriety
Behind the old façade
I'm your bewildered child
So take me cross the river wide
