I am a failure at life. I cannot escape the feeling that I will soon die either physically or spiritually. The only thing I have that I can hold onto is the darkness and the weakness. Its the one thing that will always be there and is real.
When I get really sad or feel empty or dead inside I always listen to this. youtube.com/watch?v=iRPHC5tDaag It's so empty, it almost perfectly matches how I feel sometimes about myself. It's really sad too in context of the games story. I much prefer vocal-less music that I can attach my own feelings and ideals to than written songs with words.
youtube.com/watch?v=PDGWf5-kWf8 This one's pretty similar but it has more of a "regretful" tone I feel, like remembering something stupid you did high school or something you didn't mean to do that would've mattered a lot if you did. youtube.com/watch?v=y2pWFNhMw_w This song makes me feel tired and is a nice listen after reflecting on a long day of work or class. It can also be spun in a more sadder direction depending on how the day went.
youtube.com/watch?v=5P4zTzUaj60 Feels come and go when I listen to this one, it's quite hard to think of what makes this sad, but it's just my perception of time it seems.
Does this song make anyone else feel absolutely depressed? Not sure if it's just me. Ico is a fairy tale-like game about escaping a castle with a girl you just met, and this music plays when you both sit at a bench to save. youtu.be/8RMDBqQDtT8
>I remember grade school and started to notice that I was the only kid sitting alone. I remember high school and started to notice, not much had changed since I was six years old
Death Cab for Cutie - I will Follow You into The Dark youtube.com/watch?v=0IS8rzOH_fE My life is pointless. All I do is browse Jow Forums, play against hackers in Starcraft 2 and toxic players on Chess.com. The only logical conclusion is for it to end, but there's no heaven or hell just contradictory white noise which can only be described by some unknown oblivion.
Red Hot Chili Peppers - Otherside youtube.com/watch?v=rn_YodiJO6k Is a song which used to make me feel better when I was depressed. There are a few key lines which can make the song about suicide, with otherside meaning the afterlife, but I think of it more as the otherside of your depression where you feel better. How long am I going to keep going down this path? It's time to take stock of what causes me to become depressed and take steps to rectify it. If it is about suicide that's just all the more reason to fix whatever is going wrong.

I heard that last one from a Brian Eno recommendation on a podcast he did. Talking of which, youtube.com/watch?v=SrZYP8SzlN8

>GBV so sick. though on the whole i wouldnt categorize them as "depressing"
Jordan Garcia
No, but I've been listening to them for so long that they now evoke melancholy for past times.
Elijah Butler
Thank you for sharing this song. It's just what I needed right now.
youtube.com/watch?v=pyGW6pJHrtg half of the peeps in this band are also in a more rock sounding group RILF and Takahiro Kido has a solo basically all piano thing
David Morales
which one of you peeked into my lair only to bug out?? HUH??
youtube.com/watch?v=BhjKuOfzLB8 A classic about the existential horror or everyday life and attempting to deal with it. The upbeat tone is signifying the facade people put up while having an existential crisis. The narrator is just being open and singing aloud the existentialism. The perfect existential nightmare song overall. youtube.com/watch?v=kBjzerK29RA This song to me signify's being a shut in, trying to get out of the "fantasy" world you live in and escape back to the real world. Sadly the only version of the song on youtube is a cut down version, so go listen to it on spotify if you can.

youtube.com/watch?v=VN9Fugvy7wI Basically describes the trajectory my life has gone on for the past year or so. Basically I moved away from home for the first time for school and I really just live a life of pure isolation, not really doing anything past what I have to do to do what needs to be done, and i can just feel the way Phil sings in this song. I literally have left home and I pretty much live as if I had died nowadays. Sometimes, when it really starts to hit and I see my life with a clarity that can only come momentarily and infrequently I can feel the shape of what my life used to be, the joy and curiosity of childhood, a time before I hated life and lived a NEET shut-in Jow Forums existence, when I had people who cared, and the world was fresh, and new, when the world was young and virgin and ready for me to just take it, a time when I didn't have this fear of people and of myself, and in these times I can feel the shape of what is missing like the way the wooly mammoth stands so tall and bold in our minds.
youtube.com/watch?v=IugAPuB_Zq8 Gasping for air, choking on my indecision. Hide me in my room and forget me. I'm sorry, if you want to know the truth. This is me against the world. Is my mother happy? is my father proud? Hide me in my room, but forgive me.
youtube.com/watch?v=K5dOHFE_WNo I was trash from the moment I learned to form words on my own volition, and I still am. I've become a cautionary tale for any kid growing up in my family, despite the improvements I make in my life, they continue to make me a villain. I'm ostracized wherever I go, and the people there take every instance to tell me why I'm terrible and would never amount to anything. I'm working on it, but it still fucking stabs at me.
Always tainted, always scarred Sick of waiting, no holds barred Judgment fails and morals fade Cleaning up the mess you made
Stay where you stand And get choked by that invisible hand In this corporate hell that will only compel you To retcon supply and demand
I'll bring you down on your knees From the top of the world to despair I'm the solution, the treatment, and you're the disease I'll be the end of your line, no doubt - watch out Beware
These threads are always ruined by weirdos posting fast metal or cheery video games music. Just because it has weird lyrics or you think its "ironic" doesnt mean it depresses others.
sage fuck this thread
William Scott
You're the only one complaining.
Countersage.
Easton Bailey
actually a guy before said the same thing. sorry it hurts your feelings. have another one
Isaac Walker
Yeah, that's you.
Now have another countersage on the house and some metal and video game music since it bothers you so much.
Atrocity Exhibition by Joy Division from the Closer Album... youtu.be/5AqeqAQ1ILI >Asylums with doors open wide... >Where people can pay to see inside... >For entertainment they watch his body twist... >Behind his eyes, he says "I still exist"... I have some serious mental health issues and this verse perfectly describes how I've always felt. Like I'm some sort of animal on display for others, I'm not a part of their world. Just a source of entertainment for them, something lesser than them.
that brings me back. I used to have a group of internet friends and we'd spend all day on plug dj shitposting and listening to groovy tunes. They're all gone now. I didn't even know plug dj was still a thing.
I first heard this song in World's Greatest Dad with Robin Williams and it just brought on the feels because I was already dealing with some shit at the time.
