1	->''I had a version of home, and just like that\
2	I was left to live without it, left to live without it\
3	I had a person I loved, and just like that\
4	I was left to live without him, left to live without him''
5	-->-- "The Glass"
6
7	Given the Music/FooFighters started [[Music/{{Nirvana}} after]] a [[Music/KurtCobain suicide]], it's no wonder they can write [[TearJerker some moving tunes]].
8	----
9	* "Friend of a Friend", which Dave wrote to Music/KurtCobain when he was still in Music/{{Nirvana}}.
10	** Most of the acoustic album of ''In Your Honor'', in fact.
11	* "Walking After You".
12	* "Best of You". Specially if you are feeling oppressed.
13	* Depending on your mood, "Next Year", which is mostly uplifting.
14	* "Tired of You".
15	* "Let It Die" can also be this considering how desperate it sounds by the end, and the fact that Dave Grohl has never explicitly confirmed (but heavily implied) that the song is directed at Music/CourtneyLove for her role in Kurt Cobain's death.
16	* "Home", the closing song on ''Echoes, Silence, Patience & Grace'', melancholically caps off the album with a portrayal of a tired man who has been through so much in life that he just wants to stop and go home.
17	* "Stranger Things Have Happened" Oh so much...
18	* "I Should Have Known", widely speculated to be about Music/KurtCobain; Krist Novoselic's guest appearance on bass only fuels that theory.
19	* The ''Sonic Highways'' documentary at one point had Dave talk about his pain when dealing with Kurt's passing (in the UsefulNotes/{{Seattle}} episode). One wonders that like Krist, Dave still can't get over Kurt's passing.
20	* "Generator" is a particularly depressing song, being about a man in an [[DomesticAbuse abusive relationship]], and despite the woman seeing the man as disposable, he still loves her and wants to be the flame that keep their relationship kindled.
21	* The fandom was shocked and heartbroken by the news of beloved drummer Taylor Hawkins' sudden and untimely death on March 25, 2022. One can only imagine how the band must feel, especially Dave.
22	** Add to the fact: Dave and Pat lost a close friend ''[[Music/KurtCobain again]]''. Arguably even WORSE for Pat, who was part of [[Music/TheGerms The Germs]], which had Darby Crash as the lead singer who died a day before John Lennon.
