Songs about Suicide

The ultimate act of protest, against the world, the heavens, and life itself. These songs are about suicide, including the suicides of other characters both real and fictional, urging the listener to not give up hope, or just expressing suicide as a nihilist, destructive impulse.

Disney documentaries about lemmings (where it came to light that they were shoving them off the cliff from behind camera) notwithstanding, humans are the only species to voluntarily end their own lives as a means to itself. Take it as a given that these songs will have dark subject matter at least, and even sometimes shocking and disturbing as well.

  I want to belong...to someone...
  But maybe life's not for everyone."

  "I'm in the car right now, I'm doing 90 on the freeway
  Hey Slim, I drank a fifth of vodka, you dare me to drive?
  You know the song by Phil Collins, "In the Air of the Night"
  about that guy who coulda saved that other guy from drowning
  but didn't, then Phil saw it all, then at a a show he found him?
  That's kinda how this is, you coulda rescued me from drowning"
