these came to mind, obviously there are many more
Passover - Ian Curtis
This is a crisis I knew had to come
Destroying the balance I'd kept
Doubting, unsettling, and turning around
Wondering what will come next
Is this the role that you wanted to live?
I was foolish to ask for so much
Without the protection and infancy's guard
It all falls apart at first touch
Perfect Day - Lou Reed
Just a perfect day, you made me forget myself
I thought I was someone else, someone good
Cuando te Conocí - Andrés Calamaro
Cuando te conocí
Me dijiste que por mí
No ibas a cambiar
Ibas a seguir siendo igual
Y en el fondo es tan hondo mi dolor
Porque me voy y no se puede cambiar
De corazón como de sombrero
Sin haber sufrido primero
De corazón como de camisa
sin perder la sonrisa
Translation (it sucks in english):
(When I met you
You told me that for me
You weren't going to change
You were going to stay the same
And deep down, my pain cuts so deep
Because I’m leaving, and one cannot change
their heart like a hat
Without having suffered first
Their heart like a shirt
without losing their smile)
The Dream Is Over - Daniel Johnston
She walked into the room
Suddenly just like that
It only took her one look
To see where I was at
It don't hurt me anymore
Don't you know I'm just a ghost?
I died a long time ago
I just wanted a dose of love
I could try to find another
But I really have my heart set on you
Don't tell me the dream is over
I live in a dream
But it's over
The dream is over
And now I walk the lonely road back home
Sitting by myself and all alone
I Know It's Over - Morrissey
Love is natural and real
But not for you, my love, not tonight my love
Love is natural and real
But not for such as you and I, my love
My My Hey Hey - Neil Young
Out of the blue, and into the black
Down in a Hole - Layne Staley
I've eaten the sun so my tongue has been burned of the taste
There She Goes Again - Lou Reed
There she goes again
She's out on the streets again
She's down on her knees, my friend
But you know she'll never ask you please again
Now take a look, there's no tears in her eyes
She won't take it from just any guy, what can you do?
You see her walkin' on down the street
Look at all your friends she's gonna meet
You better hit her
Heroin - Lou Reed
You can't help me, not you guys
And all you sweet girls with all your sweet talk

I have made big decision
I'm gonna try to nullify my life
Viejo Smoking - Carlos Gardel (written by Enrique Cadícamo)
Yo no siento la tristeza de saberme derrotado
Y no me amarga el recuerdo de mi pasado esplendor
No me arrepiento del vento ni los años que he tirado
Pero lloro al verme solo, sin amigos, sin amor
Sin una mano que venga a llevarme una parada
Sin una mujer que alegre el resto de mi vivir
Vas a ver que un día de estos te voy a poner de almohada
Y tirao en la catrera me voy a dejar morir
Translation:
I don't feel the sadness of knowing I've been defeated
And the memory of my past glory doesn't make me bitter
I don't regret the money or the years I've thrown away
But I cry when I see myself alone, without friends, without love
Without a hand reaching out to pull me up
Without a woman to bring some joy to the rest of my days
You'll see — one of these days I'll make you my pillow (addressing his smoking - mind you, this song is over 100 years old)
And lying on my broken bed, I'll let myself die
Brain Damage - Roger Waters
And if the dam breaks open many years too soon
And if there is no room upon the hill
Matilda Mother - Syd Barrett
For all the time spent in that room
The doll's house darkness old perfume
And fairy stories held me high
On clouds of sunlight floating by
Oh, Mother, tell me more
Echoes - Roger Waters
Overhead the albatross hangs
Motionless upon the air
And deep beneath the rolling waves
In labyrinths of coral caves
The echo of a distant time
Comes willowing across the sand
And everything is green and submarine
And no one showed us to the land
And no one knows the where's or whys
But something stirs and something tries
And starts to climb towards the light
Alabama Nigger - Johnny Rebel
I'm an alabama nigger and i wanna be free
Passover - Ian Curtis
