Here is a sad song. Maybe the saddest.

Dealt with this with my grandma, and dealing with it with my last remaining grandma - She's 96. I can't imagine dealing with it with my dad.



Or, this one: Wife called me at about midnight. My friend, and a twin to my brother in law, had died. This was a number of years ago.

For anyone old enough to have dealt with the loss of a parent as age has caught up with them, this song has to have a place in your heart....

Georgia Lee - Tom Waits

I really like this song. I find it to be rather haunting. It reminds me of a boy who was abused. A boy who grew into a disillusioned man, where his dreams of dying were the best he ever had. The everyday grind of people who don't see him for who he is has become an even greater burden than his own depression. It's as if he is looking for an alternative place in a world gone mad.
