Two of the saddest songs I know. (for whatever reason they popped up in my head in the last 24 hours)
Chris Cornell - Seasons Shijing posted it before but also here's the lyrics for it.
Summer nights and long warm days
Are stolen as the old moon falls
Mirror shows another face
Another place to hide it all
Another place to hide it all
I'm lost behind the words I'll never find
I'm left behind as the seasons roll on by
Sleeping with a full moon blanket
Sand and feathers for my head
Dreams have never been the answer
Dreams have never made my bed
Dreams have never made my bed
I'm lost behind words I'll never find
I'm left behind as the seasons roll on by
Now I wanna fly above the storm
But you can't grow feathers in the rain
And the naked floor is cold as hell
The naked floor reminds me
The naked floor reminds me
The naked floor reminds me
That I'm lost behind words I'll never find
And I'm left behind as the seasons roll on by
If I should be short on words and
Long on things to say,
Could you crawl into my world,
And take me worlds away?
Should I be beside myself
And should I even stay?
And I'm lost behind words I'll never find
And I'm left behind as the seasons roll on by.
Second one is what I was listening to when I had a panic attack almost a year ago.
Nine Inch Nails - Right where it belongs Approaching Infinity (
here ) and Johnno (
here ) posted it before with lyrics. I just keep coming back to this song from time to time.
