I'd have to go with Alice In Chains - Nutshell.

as far as current rock songs go this one by RJA involves a subject that is quite depressing.

I don't understand why everyone thinks Nutshell is more sad. *shrugs*

I once shed an actual tear while singing along to this song.

Pearl Jam's version :thumbsup:

Clapton - Tears in Heaven. No others need apply.

For those misguided people that think Clapton isn't "rock", I'd say that anyone you could possibly name would be honored to be mentioned in the same sentence as Clapton. That is, if they consider themselves to be musicians.

Can't forget Black by Pearl Jam.

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
and all i taught her was everything
i know she gave me all that she wore
and now my bitter hands shake beneath the clouds
of what was everything?
all the pictures had 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
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 had 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...
i know someday you'll have a beautiful life, i know you'll be a star
in somebody else's sky, but why
why, why can't it be, why can't it be mine?
