Lyrically, sonically, what song endings sound the most sad to you? :'(
1. Ambrosia - HOW MUCH I FEEL
"How's your life been going on?
I've got a wife now,
years we've going strong...
OH NO!
There's just something that I've got to say
Sometimes when we make love...I still see your face
Just try to recall, when we were as one..."
2. Ciara - I BET
"Right now it's killing me
Cause now I have to find someone else...when all I wanted was you"

This thread instantly made me think of Dolly Parton, lol...
Dolly Parton - "Down from Dover"
My body aches the time is here it's lonely in this place where I'm lyin'
Our baby has been born but something's wrong it's much too still I hear no cryin'
I guess in some strange way she knew she'd never have a father's arms to hold her
And dying was her way of telling me he wasn't coming down from Dover
Dolly Parton - "The Bridge"
Tonight, while standing on the bridge
My heart is beating wild
To think that you could leave me here
With our unborn child
My feet are moving slowly
Closer to the edge
Here is where it started
And here is where I'll end it...
Dolly Parton - "Evening Shade"
Plans were that Joe Johnson would steal the kerosene
And I would get some matches when nobody seen
Beckie Adams would make sure the kids were all outside
Billy Watson would look out for the evil eye
Now Mrs. Bailey took a nap at three o'clock each day
We knew that she'd be a'sleeping as the plans got underway
Now that its all over and the sun is going down
There's no evening shade 'cause we burned it to the ground

2Pac - Brenda's Got a Baby
Now Brenda's gotta make her own way
Can't go to her family, they won't let her stay
No money no babysitter, she couldn't keep a job
She tried to sell crack, but end up getting robbed
So now what's next, there ain't nothing left to sell
So she sees sex as a way of leaving hell
It's paying the rent, so she really can't complain
Prostitute, found slain, and Brenda's her name, she's got a baby
Notorious B.I.G. - Suicidal Thoughts
People at the funeral frontin' like they miss me
My baby momma kissed me but she glad I'm gone
She knew me and her sista had somethin' goin' on
I reach my peak, I can't speak,
call my n!gga Chic, tell him that my will is weak.
I'm sick of n!ggas lyin', I'm sick of bitches hawkin',
matter of fact, I'm sick of talkin'.
[BANG]

Rise Against - "The Approaching Curve"
Murder-suicide over jilted lovers.
The car pressed on faster through the night. As our voices lowered,
The cadence again overtook the air.
Up ahead there was a curve approaching.
She made no indications of slowing.
*crash*

Brandy - "Love Wouldn't Count Me Out" :'(
It used to be... that you couldn't live without me
but now you think you're better without me
so I guess it wasn't true when you said I love you..
I soo can feel the pain in her voice.
Also Aaliyah's "I Refuse" ending is very sad sonically to me.

Blake Shelton - "The Baby"
"I got a call in Alabama,
said come on home to Louisiana
and come as fast as you can fly.
Cause your momma really needs you,
and says she's got to see you,
she might not make it through the night.
The whole way I drove 80
so she could see her baby.
She looked like she was sleepin'
and my family had been weepin'
by the time that I got to her side.
And I knew that she'd been taken,
and my heart it was breakin',
I never got to say goodbye.
I softly kissed that lady
and cried just like a baby."

Not really a personal favorite of mine, but it's tragic especially once you reach the end.

"Dark Blue Tennessee" | Taylor Swift Unfortunately, there don't seem to be any HQ versions on YouTube, since it's technically "unreleased." It's slightly vague, but the subject of the song seems to kill himself at the end: "She almost called him
on the night that he wrote
these simple words on his
goodbye note
missing you
like this is
such sweet sorrow
won't you come back to me
I'll be here
today and
here tomorrow
in dark blue Tennessee..."

Just an incredibly sad song all around about that last chorus gottdamn. The song is about falling in love with somebody in Paris and then having to leave to fly back to Canada. In translation, it kind of lacks the umph but just listen to the French and feel it.
Et je sais plus si tu en vaux la peine
C'est plutôt dur d'en être certaine
Et quand tu seras à Vincennes
Ce soir ne m'oublie pas
Je t'attendrais au moins le temps de dire
Que j'ai voulu prendre le plus grand risque
Un soir qui m'a rendue bien triste
Un soir Place de la République
(And I don't know if you're worth the effort
It's pretty hard to be certain
And when you you're at Vincennes (or Pearson in the original version) tonight
Don't forget me
I was waiting for you to tell you that I wanted to take the biggest risk
A night that made me so sad
A night in Place de la Republique)
