I liked these two depressing songs, especially the first, that I noticed while watching the vampire love saga, "New Moon":
Grizzly Bear with Victoria Legrand - "Slow Life"
(I mentioned this song in another post, but I like it enough to mention twice)
Grizzly Bear - Slow Life - 2009 (Ft. Victoria Legrand) - YouTube

"Possibility" by Lykke Li
Lykke Li's voice half-annoys me, but the line, "There's a possibility that all I had was all I gon get," is a great one, because eventually this isn't just a possibility...it is the hard truth, and one we all have to face sooner or later.
I mean, hey, even immortal vampires can die when they get their heads and arms ripped off, transforming them into broken statues.
Oh cruel, cruel vampire world!!!

^ This reminds me that a couple days ago I was discussing with my child what would happen if one were an immortal human and unable to be injured or need food to survive.
We concluded that after the Sun expands, consuming the earth and eventually turning into a dead star, we'd end up just floating around in space for eternity, if we didn't move anywhere. We decided that we'd spend that time slowly puffing out thin space "air" to propel ourselves to the nearest inhabited planet. It would be boring, a trillion years of puffing through space like that, but we'd have all the time we'd need.
This is one reason that it is better to die than to be immortal.
