"Afraid" by Sarah Fimm. The song reminds me of someone I've also lost, a good friend to a meth overdose. It always reminds me that no matter how much I wanted to help, support, and give strength to him, pieces from my heart can never mend one so shattered and lonely. Daryl Stanford (1987-2008) [YOUTUBE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=02PoYkaCvIM[/YOUTUBE] I'd like to hold you close Make you feel safe Not so afraid of yourself If we have to part, so it shall be I'd like to help you suffer less Not be so locked up in your thoughts Afraid of love and all under the sun I'll hide out in your space Emptiness on my face I'll be keeping you safe When you're cold and alone Til you come out and play I'd like to know you more, Tell you you're fine Even though you're not When you worry so much It makes me want to cry Fragile like the leaves come fall Red yellow gold, I love them all I guess it's just the way we love I'll hide out in your space Emptiness on my face I'll be keeping you safe When you're cold and alone Til you come out and play Here I am I don't wanna come out Null to the bone I don't wanna come out Here I am I don't wanna come out Null to the bone I don't wanna come out I've been dead and I wanna come out Call my name cause I wanna come out Here I am and I wanna come out Null to the bone I don't wanna come out I've been dead and I wanna come out Call my name cause I wanna come out I'll hide out in your space Emptiness on my face I'll be keeping you safe When you're cold and alone Til you come out and play Here I am I don't wanna come out Null to the bone I don't wanna come out I've been dead and I wanna come out Call my name cause I wanna come out I'll hide out in your space Emptiness on my face I'll be keeping you safe When you're cold and alone Til you come out and play
I thought I had heard just about everthing Johny Cash ever recorded, but 'Hurt' made me cry like a baby. Songs that also made me cry (yes I'm VERY emotional): Vincent - Don McLean Crying - Don McLean America - Neil Diamond Anything by Bread, & Almost anything played on the bagpipes. I'm sure a million more songs will come to my mind after I post this
Sigur Rós/Jónsi & Alex have so many 'tearjerkers' for that reason ^. Takk..., Vaka, Vijrar Vel Til Loftárása, Happiness, E-Bow and Stokkseri especially. Actually, the videos for the 2nd and 3rd songs there are what actually sets me off, the 3rd would be more of interest to a LGBT forum, and surely must be one of the best videos of all time. The song? Yeah that's one of the most underrated of all time too. [YOUTUBE]34ZtT4Th9Ys[/YOUTUBE] Xiu Xiu/Former Ghosts, Joy Division and to some extent Placebo have a really bitter feel to some of their songs that make listening to them uncomfortable. [YOUTUBE]Tx3k1O87DgI[/YOUTUBE] Noah And The Whale - First Days Of Spring (album) - lyrics about a breakup that are very frank and genuinely depressing, and not covered in try-hard coatings Arcade Fire - Haiti - For making a song about dead Haitian children in 2004...ouch. Johnny Cash - Hurt - this, recorded shortly before he died and just after his wife died. Gahh he sounds so fragile in this <3. Goldfrapp - A&E - a song about waking up after attempted suicide, says it all really. Actually i have a playlist for crying to, FML?
having not read through all 4o something posts i may repeat someone...sorry about that! spies - Coldplay (I feel so at one with it, skiz symtoms btw) Martha - Tom waits Mrs. Bartolozzi - Kate Bush there are so many thats all I have the energy to post el xxx

I LOVE YOU. CHRONO CROSS <3 I just replayed the game a few weeks ago. LOVE LOVE LOVE IT, along with the soundtrack. When this song started to play at the ending, I was definitely choking up. It was just perfect. It really gets to you since it has the feeling of coming to an end of a perfect game.
I will admit that the first time I heard this song I cried. The first time I heard it was right before coming out to my best friend and I was driving in the car in the pouring rain. I was really sad and then I heard this song, and it made me a little tear-ish. Im such a loser lol.

[YOUTUBE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZPH80CpBYwI&feature=related[/YOUTUBE] And through the life force and there goes her friend on her Nishiki it’s out of time and through the portal they can make amends Hey would you say whatever we’re blanket friends Can’t stop what’s coming Can’t stop what is on its way And through the walls they made their mudpies I’ve got your mind, I said She said, I’ve your voice I said, you don’t need my voice girl you have your own but you never thought it was enough of So they went years and years like sisters blanket, blanket girls Always there through that and this There’s nothing we cannot ever fix, I said Can’t stop what’s coming Hey, can’t stop what is on its way Bells and footfalls and soldiers and dolls Brothers and lovers she and I were Now she seems to be sand under his shoes There’s nothing I can do Can’t stop what’s coming Can’t stop what is on its way And now I speak to you Are you in there You have her face and her eyes but you are not her and we go at each other like blank ettes who can’t find their thread and their bare Can’t stop loving Can’t stop what is on its way and I see it coming and it’s on its way
^^ I second those two songs choices. [YOUTUBE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R-Cf8_f9g30[/YOUTUBE] I really love this song. It was because of this song that I discovered the Wicked soundtrack (which I love, as well). It makes me cry because I know the story behind it (not the Glee story, but for Chris Colfer and this song) but not sad tears.

This song is amazingly sad and beautiful, especially if you've seen the episode of Bones that features it: [YOUTUBE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gOZXTsrMb3A[/YOUTUBE] Also: [YOUTUBE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RUDc1frz22E[/YOUTUBE]
I was totally gonna post Death Cab's "I Will Follow You into the Dark", but MusicIsMyBoyfriend beat me to it!
I just remembered how freaking sad this song is [YOUTUBE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EDrq-nCb6kY&feature=related[/YOUTUBE] I am strong in his hands I am beyond me on my own i'm human and I do faults I do confess I feel you trickeling down my shoulders from above I turn myself in I give myself up volunteer you own me : I'm yours You have to trust it I'm eternally yours all that I gave them I gave to you So needy of comfort but too raw to be embraced undo this privacy and put me in my place Generous palmstroke the hugest of hugs undo this privacy embrace E m b r a c e m e E m b r a c e m e E m b r a c e m e E e e e e e m m m m m I am strong in his hands I am above way beyond me I.... con... She's strong in his hands she is beyond her on her own she is human and she does faults
[YOUTUBE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uHDffGb8ZTE[/YOUTUBE] this one almost always makes me really desperately want to cry.
