Top 10 Most Meaningful Modern Rock Songs
These songs are the ones that have the most meaningful lyrics. Some of these songs will be sad or depressing or the they may not seem that. Way. Either way if you have been through some things in your life these songs will be the most meaningful to you out of modern rock, and most of them, the saddest.
This band as a whole has helped me through so much in the past few years. They have been such an inspiration to me and my friends. Even if I never got to see them in concert, their memory will carry on in my heart. I'm extremely proud of all of them and will forever be grateful for the band that helped save my life.
Thank you for bringing the bullets, for sweet revenge, our black parade marching in the sky above, and for bringing us the danger days, showing us the true lives of some very fabulous killjoys. Thank you, My Chemical Romance.
Contrasting many of Green Day's more upbeat, rebellious songs, Wake Me Up When September Ends incorporates a softer side. Listening to this song evokes a different emotion with every listener, all of which vary with life experiences.
This song really pokes at our sensitive sides. Very emotional and VERY well written.
Why this isn't at the top is beyond me. This is literally one of the most powerfully painful songs I have ever heard, and I'm not even into rock (I like a couple of songs here and there). This song transcends most songs and just cuts so deep. Everyone can relate. Beautiful.
I was torn between Welcome to the Black Parade and Dear Agony, so I just voted for this song. Both lyrics are just so meaningful.
A very emotional song that so many people can connect to. It can make even the toughest people come to tears.
This is the only song that belongs on this list.
Sadly, this song makes me think of my friend. He worries me, and I don't want what this song speaks of to happen. A very powerful song with a very powerful message. Much better than the number one, I must say.
Evokes such powerful emotions and is so easy to relate to. Should be number 1.
This song means so much to me. Feels like it was written just for me.
I used to listen to this even when I was in primary school (I'm now 20). Even without understanding the lyrical content completely and as emotionally as I do now, it goes to show how scarily powerful this is.
This shouldn't be all the way here at the bottom. This is by far one of the deepest and most true songs.
One of the best songs of the early 2000s. Such a gorgeous song with a really beautiful melody. Forever an Evanescence fan. Her song with Seether, Broken, should be on this list, in fact.
The lyrics in this song are so powerful. The transition from the calm, peaceful music into the hard rock makes this song such a great song.
I don't know why this song isn't in the top ten!
I've been listening to this for a few months now, after it was introduced on Octane. It shows how no matter how much you try, a lot of people don't care, and you have to be the underdog and prove them all wrong.
Before I even knew who the Rev was, I watched the music video for this song and it left me in tears. This song has so much meaning to it. The lyrics are so meaningful and deep. I honestly don't know how this isn't number 1.
Welcome to the Black Parade isn't even a good song. So Far Away is about the Rev. Come on. The only way they could have made it more meaningful and sad is if they did it without drums. RIP Jimmy.
I cried when the Rev died. I went to the Nightmare concert. Legitimately, I cried at the concert for the loss. A7X foREVer!
This is a song everyone should listen to before they die. It is the best way to end the album Mechanical Animals by Marilyn Manson because the album talks a lot about drugs and uses drugs as a metaphor frequently. In the end, Manson concludes with this song, saying that "All the drugs in this world won't save us from ourselves."
Thank goodness this song is in the top 10. You people really need to listen to it. It's really deep.
Great song. I love it. Perfect combo of screamo and clean vocals.
This is the best song. It was written after Blink 182 received a letter in their fan mail that was a suicide note from Adam, a fan. They made this song out of it, showing respect. It almost drives me to tears when I hear it.
This song describes what Manson had to grow up with and how it turned him into what he is now, a man or monster that people have grown to fear. You people really should listen to this song. It really makes you think.
I've known this song ever since I was just a kid, and I still love it. This song is amazing and beautiful. "You're only with me in my dreams." Just a man missing his lost love. Not sad at all. *Sniffs.*
Thank goodness this is on here. Powerful and moving song.
How come no one has this? This is a masterpiece. The greatest metal song ever written. Thank you, Corey.
This song is just perfection! The way it tells a story is just breathtaking.
This song woke many people up inside.
