Top 10 Saddest Lines in Metal Songs

The Top Ten
1 Absolute horror, I cannot live, I cannot die, trapped in myself body my holding cell - One, Metallica
2 As Earth becomes a vacant lot, there's nothing left to heal. No colour in the skies, no one left to blame - Imperiled Eyes, Annihilator
3 Keep the world with all its sin, it's not fit for livin' in - Beyond The Realms Of Death, Judas Priest
4 Why am I loved only when I'm gone? - Bless the Child, Nightwish

6 No one but me can save myself, but it's too late - Fade to Black, Metallica
7 No sign of life did flicker in floods of tears she cried. All hope's lost, it can't be undone. They're wasted and gone - Nightfall, Blind Guardian
8 A single mother she is strained and she suffers. She slaves away her life in turmoil. A homeless man had it all and now has nothing. His spirit broken, plagued from injustice - Anthem, Iced Earth
9 Shame covers me, what was light has turned to dark. Pain torments me, where there once was something holy now beats my blackened heart - Sinner, Theocracy
10 ...like every hope I've ever had...like every dream I've ever known, It washed away in a tide of longing, a longing for a better world. - In the Shadow of Our Pale Companion, Agalloch

This song is so much underrated...

12 Remind the lord to leave his light on, for me...I'm Free - Danger Line, Avenged Sevenfold
13 That old man here is me. What I've felt, what I've known never shined through in what I've shown. Never be. Never see. Won't see what might have been. - The Unforgiven, Metallica
14 Can't you see there's nothing real but you and I. And I say goodbye - My Last Sunrise, Demons & Wizards
15 Some day I will feed a snake, drink her venom, stay awake - Feel for You, Nightwish
16 Down where I am there's no bitter end at all. This bitterness is endless, keeps going on and on - Down Where I Am, Demons & Wizards
17 I don't wanna hold you, I don't wanna see you. My tear of joy turned into grief. I don't wanna stand it anymore - Down Where I Am, Demons & Wizards
18 They were crying as their sons left, God is wearing black. He's gone so far to find no hope, he's never coming back. Soldier Side - System Of A Down

24 My cities will never sleep again - If Rain Is What You Want, Slipknot

If Rain Is What You Want by Slipknot is the most depressing song in metal. I always cry when I even hear that title let alone hear that song.

25 If rain is what you want, then take your seats, enjoy the fall - If Rain Is What You Want, Slipknot
