Saddest Songs

Music always makes you feel nice when you are sad. Find some of the saddest songs which many of us can relate to, when life’s not fun!

The walls we build around us to keep sadness out also keeps out the joy. ~ Jim Rohn

They say there are two sides to everything, and tears are no exception to this. They run down your cheeks when you are happy, but more when you are sad. But after those tears flood, stream down and then empty our eyes, there’s a moment when we often just wish if we could change the situation we’re in, to make life easier.

Well, since none of us have perfect lives, there’s always a reason that makes us cry! But life surely doesn’t stop there, as you have to decide to make it easier for yourself and hold on.
