History TearJerker / Aviators

* "Wolves", expecially the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8-oFveqvq5E accoustic version]]. A man cast out and abandoned, having lost everything and carries on only so that those he has lost won't be forgotten.

* The fact that these songs' central theme is BreakTheCutie is a [[{{Meta}} Meta]]-TearJerker. [[TheWoobie Poor guys...]]

* "If You Only Knew", which chronicles Rainbow Dash's pleas to Applejack to come home after she's run away during ''[[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS2E14TheLastRoundup The Last Roundup]]''. ''The Lost Songs'' changes it just a little bit. How? '''''[[UpToEleven By making it a]] FanFic/MyLittleDashie [[UpToEleven version]].'''''

** ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h0qb9YsWhEA Song of the Abyss]]'', all of it. What did you expect from a song about [[FailureHero Artorias]] and [[UndyingLoyalty Sif]]? The song itself is about a DefiantToTheEnd {{Determinator}} Artorias giving [[LoyalAnimalCompanion Sif]] a few last words before going off to fight [[BigBad Manus]]. Giving a DeclarationOfProtection to Sif and and asking it to be his grave guardian. The video emphasizes this with footage of Sif's boss fight and a mod of it fighting Manus. Watching this video will likely make you want to go kill the [[GreaterScopeVillain Father of the Abyss]] yourself just to avenge this injustice.

** A few lines from the MLP fansong "Friendship" are reprised in "Meet Me At the End", in a way that is especially tearjerking for fans who have followed since his Friendship is Magic days. The song itself is about sadness and loss and the hope and love you still cling onto in spite of it.

we should've known we'd be here tonight.\\

* "Catalyst", a song based on ''Film/RogueOne''. It captures the feelings of hopelessness of the film quite well, and references the fate of the characters.

So light up the way, and I'll [[TitleDrop follow you down]]

--> I'm going to need a guide to show me\\
To walk me through the streets of gold
--> When death will meet us at the end\\
Of our own lost and broken road

* "This Is Not The End" is about a brother who's sister is dying of cancer, based on the real life experiences of someone the artist knew. The lyrics are heartbreaking, as the brother refuses to accept that his sister is dying, and does everything in his power to make sure her final days are the best they can be. In the end, he finally accepts it, but promises to never forget her.

* The Game of Thrones song "The Bells" based on the same episode has the song open up as a song of Cersei's downfall but Daenerys's rise to power at the cost of her sanity and becoming no different than the tyrants she overthrew or her ow father. The sad part comes from the realization that the lyrics can apply to either Queen making this song both a badass boast for Daenerys but a fall from grace from the caring Queen she once was too.

** His second soulsong, "Let there be fire again", takes a more optimistic tone, but it's still solemn, with the Chosen Undead singing about his HeroicSacrifice to let the fire burn on.

* The [[VideoGame/DarkSouls SoulSong]] "Fading Light" is as SugarWiki/{{Awesome|Music}} as it is gut-wrenching. The song tells of the humble beginnings of the Age of Fire with the discovery of the First Flame, but the lyrics quickly begin piling on the misery, describing the plights of the characters as the fire fades. Examples of events alluded to include the Lords abandoning humanity, Priscilla's isolation, Yhorm's kingdom being wiped from the earth after he gave his all to earn its people's love, the Abyss Watchers' endless, all-consuming war with the Dark, and Gael losing himself to the Dark Soul at the end of time.

* Another of his soulsongs, "Requiem for the King", manages to make the already tearjerking story of Alsanna, child of dark, and the Burnt Ivory King even more depressing, depicting the last thoughts of the Ivory King before he left for the Chaos.

* His second soulsong, "Let there be fire again", takes a more optimistic tone, but it's still solemn, with the Chosen Undead singing about his HeroicSacrifice to let the fire burn on.

--> Born of graves and left below/Painted ashes, painted snow/When the Dark awakens/[[DespairEventHorizon Fires of our last hope are getting low...]]

--> Last kiss for a burnt man/Dark child of the outlands

* "Streets of Gold" is sung by a wandering hero wandering the empty, abandoned streets of a city he fought for. He has outlived everything he sought to defend, and there is now nothing left for him to do but wander and long for better times.
