The Big Gloom, by Have a Nice Life
deep, moving song that sweeps over you like the tides of an ocean. if you want more, please check out the album the song comes from. deathconsciousness helped me come to terms with what i had been feeling for years.

Honey, by Bobby Goldsboro, from 1968. At least suicide is one interpretation.

It's very much a "please don't kill yourself" song for reference!! Just in case that's not what you want to hear (I don't)

Porta - Nota de suicidio

For me, the quintessential song about suicide. It is a song in Spanish, but you can look for the translation into your language by Lord who knows everything (Google)

I forgot about this. Thanks for the reminder. I love him and this song.


I've always loved "Goodbye California" by Jolie Holland (and now it resonates a lot more).



"I'm pre-meditating crime of a personal kind. I'm about to go out of my mind. I'm just about sick to death of taking breath and walking this line of mine.

Now, folks that know what's good for them are good at ignoring them, but I just can't put these thoughts down. I'm harrowed and abused, and broken and pursued by this notion that follows me around.

My heart is hurting, my spirit's burdened. I feel like a liar and a thief for taking air, for being here. Unwanted, I look for my final release.

Goodbye, goodbye, California.
Goodbye, and I'll be moving on
I sang you my songs. I know I'm wrong.
Fare thee well, and I'll be moving on

When I'm dead and gone, my immortal home will hold me in its bosom safe and cold. No more desires will light their fires or disturb my immaculate calm.

And the birds of the air, and the beasts of the soil, and the fishes of the desperate seas will know who I am. And our substance will expand as part of everything.

As part of everything, my God. As part of everything.
And the clouds will roll, and the wind will blow and the beautiful birds will sing.

Goodbye, goodbye, California.
Goodbye to your waving trees.
To you succulent wind and all my friends,
fare thee well,
goodbye,
so be it,
amen.

Amen."
