Let's welcome the SGs with songs about SUICIDE!

Damnit. You beat me to it.
IM me and I'll add you.

You beat me to it! Love that song.

Asleep

Sing me to sleep
Sing me to sleep
I'm tired and I, I want to go to bed

Sing me to sleep
Sing me to sleep
And then leave me alone
Don't try to wake me in the morning 'cause I will be gone
Don't feel bad for me
I want you to know
Deep in the cell of my heart I will feel so glad to go

Sing me to sleep
Sing me to sleep
I don't want to wake up on my own anymore

Sing to me
Sing to me
I don't want to wake up on my own anymore

Don't feel bad for me
I want you to know
Deep in the cell of my heart I really want to go

There is another world
There is a better world
Well, there must be
Well, there must be
Well, there must be
Well, there must be
Well ...

Bye bye
Bye bye
Bye ...

Smiths

Papa Roach "Last Resort"

Cut my life into pieces
I've reached my last resort, suffocation, no breathing
Don't give a fuck if I cut my arms bleeding
Would it be wrong, would it be right
If I took my life tonight, chance are that I might
Mutilation out of sight and I'm contemplating suicide
Cause I'm losing my sight, losing my mind
Wish somebody would tell me I'm fine
Nothing's alright, nothing is fine
I'm running and I'm crying
I never realized I was spread too thin
Till it was too late and I was empty within
Hungry, feeding on chaos and living in sin
Downward spiral, where do I begin
It all started when I lost my mother
No love for myself and no love for another
Searching to find a love upon a higher level
Finding nothing but questions and devils
Cause I'm losing my sight, losing my mind
Wish somebody would tell me I'm fine
Nothing's alright, nothing is fine
I'm running and I'm crying
I can't go on living this way

OK - not about suicide, but it does have some BDSM references too it.

From one of my all-time fav songs:

Sex Dwarf by Soft Cell


Isn't it nice, sugar and spice
Luring disco dollies to a life of vice
I can make a film and make you my star
You'll be a natural the way you are
I would like you on a long black leash
I will parade you down the high streets
You've got the attraction
You've got the pulling power
Walk my doggie, walk my little sex dwarf
We can make a scene we'll be a team
Making the headlines sounds like a dream
When we hit the floor you just watch them move aside
We will take them for a ride of rides
They all love your miniature ways
You know what they say about small boys

Sex Dwarf

Sex Dwarf
Sex Dwarf

I'm a Rolls Royce, look its so huge!
It's big and it's gold
With my dumb chaufer
Looking to procure, run little doggie
Lure a disco dolly
Run my little sex dwarf, I feel so lonely
Get my little camera, take a pretty picture
Sex dwarf, in a gold Rolls, making it with the dumb chaufer

Isn't it nice, sugar and spice
Luring disco dollies to a life of vice
Sex Dwarf
Isn't it nice
Luring disco dollies to a life of vice

Sex Dwarf...

We can make an outfit for my little Sex Dwarf
To match the gold Rolls on my dumb chaufer
We'll all look so good, we'll knock 'em cold
Knocking 'em cold in black and gold
We can have playtime in my little playroom
Disco Dollies, my Sex Dwarf and my dumb chaufer
I would like you on a long black leash
You can bring me all the things I need

Sex Dwarf
Isn't it nice
Luring disco dollies to a life of vice
Sex Dwarf
Isn't it nice
Luring disco dollies to a life of vice

Sex Dwarf...

Sex Dwarf
Isn't it nice
Luring disco dollies to a life of vice
Sex Dwarf
Isn't it nice
Luring disco dollies to a life of vice

Sweatin and Screamin

The pain is finally over
I'm floating thru the air
My soul, no destination
You know I just don't care
A chance to see new worlds
As I pass thru many doors
Is the room I seek called Eden
Or a room that's filled with whores

Oh, I must be dreaming, I keep thinking
That I see a light
oh, Sweatin and screamin, I keep reaching
for anything in sight

What really am I searching for
Confusion fills my mind
The things that give true happiness
I fear I'll never find
When I find a world to suit me
I get bored as time goes by
Why can't I find contentment
I often question why

Oh, I must be dreaming, I keep thinking
That I see a light
Oh, sweatin and screamin, I keep reaching
For anything in sight

So I just keep floating
Enjoying what I can
Stopped searching for the meaning
Embrace the time at hand
For who am I to question
The way things are to be
I'm just a soul who's searching
For my own destiny

by Spinner

I wrote that after a friend of mine committed suicide, I wondered what he might be thinking after he died and wrote this song, I still think it was an accident tho. But his death followed his girlfriends which I tried to write about but it became too painful. Here's the first verse of that one...

Saw your starry eyes sparkling in the twilight
And your golden hair glisten from the moonlight
Didn't see the fear of hear your silent screams of pain
Didn't see the tears as you cut into your vein

He thought everything was fine between them and was holding her when she did that. Suicide sucks...period
Kurt Cobain is not a hero, he was a coward

Sorry, touchy subject for me

Shivers (Nick Cave and The Boys Next Door)

I've been contemplating suicide,
But it really doesn't suit my style.
So I think I'll just act bored instead,
And contain the blood I would've shed.

She makes me feel so ill at ease,
My heart is really on its knees.
But I keep a poker face so well,
That even mother couldn't tell.
But my baby's so vain,
She is almost a mirror.
And the sound of her name,
Sends a nervous shiver down my spine,
Down my spine.

I keep her photograph against my heart,
For in my life she plays the starring part.
Our love could hold off cigarettes,
There's no room for cheap regrets.

She makes me feel so ill at ease,
My heart is really on its knees.
But I keep a poker face so well,
That even mother couldn't tell.
But my baby's so vain,
She is almost a mirror.
And the sound of her name,
Sends a nervous shiver down my spine,
Down my spine.
Down my spine,
Down my spine,
Down my spine.

Was he in Wim Wender's "Wings of Desire"?

Whiskey Lullabye

-Best Song Ever-

She put him out like the burnin' end of a midnight cigarette
She broke his heart he spent his whole life tryin' to forget
We watched him drink his pain away a little at a time
But he never could get drunk enough to get her off his mind
Until the night

1st Chorus


He put that bottle to his head and pulled the trigger
And finally drank away her memory
Life is short but this time it was bigger
Than the strength he had to get up off his knees
We found him with his face down in the pillow
With a note that said I'll love her till I die
And when we buried him beneath the willow
The angels sang a whiskey lullaby

(Sing lullaby)

The rumors flew but nobody know how much she blamed herself
For years and years she tried to hide the whiskey on her breath
She finally drank her pain away a little at a time
But she never could get drunk enough to get him off her mind
Until the night

2nd Chorus


She put that bottle to her head and pulled the trigger
And finally drank away is memory
Life is short but this time it was bigger
Than the strength she had to get up off her knees
We found her with her face down in the pillow
Clinging to his picture for dear life
We laid her next to him beneath the willow
While the angels sang a whiskey lullaby

....
and on a less depressing note

Eve 6
On the roof again..

in the throws of young love leroy
Didn't think to think and in the blink of an eye
Tied the knot not knowing how to not know
He was the prodigal son this girl had brought him home
He moved out of his step dad's apartment
He moved in with this cute guatemalan
Things were copasetic 'til she caught him
Things were cool and collected 'til she found him erected with another

Shit went bad he's on the roof again
She flipped, he flipped the bird
And then he went to the roof where his threats ring loud and clear
Gonna jump gonna jump gonna die this year

Got screwed by the horse that he rode in on
Riding high on his whims had only gotten him down
He moved back to his step dad's apartment
Where he put himself back together 'til

She came back he's on the roof again
She flipped, he flipped the bird
And then he went to the roof where his threats ring loud and clear
Gonna jump gonna jump gonna die this year

Your heinous highness broke her hymen hey man try to quit your crying
I know she broke your heart but try to come try to come down

Shit went bad he's on the roof again
She flipped, he flipped the bird
And then he went to the roof where his threats ring loud and clear
Gonna jump gonna jump gonna die this year
