That song made me depressed and I didn't even feel like watching the show after hearing it. It just sucked the energy from me.

LOL

I'm not related to him in any way. He's taller, more physically fit, better looking, smarter, richer, more well hung, more charismatic, more popular, and overall a better human being than a mere mortal like me. Or at least that's what he claims on the forum.

Pearl Jam - Black

Sheets of empty canvas, untouched sheets of clay
Were laid spread out before me as her body once did
All five horizons revolved around her soul
As the earth to the sun
Now the air I tasted and breathed has taken a turn
Ooh, and all I taught her was everything
Ooh, I know she gave me all that she wore
And now my bitter hands chafe beneath the clouds
Of what was everything?
Oh, the pictures have all been washed in black, tattooed everything...
I take a walk outside
I'm surrounded by some kids at play
I can feel their laughter, so why do I sear
Oh, and twisted thoughts that spin round my head
I'm spinning, oh, I'm spinning
How quick the sun can, drop away
And now my bitter hands cradle broken glass
Of what was everything?
All the pictures have all been washed in black, tattooed everything...
All the love gone bad turned my world to black
Tattooed all I see, all that I am, all I'll ever be...yeah...
Uh huh...uh huh...ooh...
I know someday you'll have a beautiful life, I know you'll be a sun
In somebody else's sky, but why
Why, why can't it be, why can't it be mine

WTF..that's not a sad song, it's an instrumental. It's just atmospheric.

How about The Baby by Blake Shelton? Kinda cheesy I know, but the lyrics are really sad.

EDIT: Hallelujah by Jeff Buckley

You say you don't know where to start
Telling me is breakin' your heart
It's not that you don't care for me
It's just that you're not in love anymore
You stare at the floor

You say it's no one's fault that feelings change
And you'd rather not get into blame
You don' know if it's a choice or fate
But you can't fight this need to be set free
Tomorrow you'll leave
You tell me this is hard for you
You should try being me

Try watching dreams
Crash to the ground without warning
Try not to beg
When the one you love says they're going
Hells' near and you know it
You tell me this is hard for you
You should try being me

You say you don't deny what we had
But we can't tie the future to the past
I'll always be a part of you
And hurting me's the last thing on your mind
But you can't live a lie
You tell me this is hard for you
You should try being me

Try watching dreams
Crash to the ground without warning
Try not to beg
When the one you love says they're going
Hells' near and you know it
You tell me this is hard for you
You should try being me
