My brother and one of his best friends (who was a girl ;]) passed away. It has been hard, lets put it that way. My family and the other family has decided on having the wake at the same time and we need some songs to play at the funeral and wake. We are looking for something powerful like Adele – Set Fire to the Rain. The song should be atleast a little sad. They were like twins. They liked to live life! They were adventurous and willing to do things for others. They both had their lifes planned and now they are just gone. My brother was 16 and she was 17. The families are both religious.

maybe “Untitled” by Simple Plan? i used to be rather fond of it. it’s about a girl who was the victim of a drunk driving accident. it’s really sad tbh.
Hallelujah by Leonard Cohen
Poison Oak by Bright Eyes
Cemetary Drive by My Chemical Romance
How to Save a Life by The Fray
Plainsong by the Cure
One sad song that I really like, is How To Save A Life by The Fray. I really LOVE that song. Also, I believe that Collide by Howie Day is really good!! =)
Lucy by Skillet (they are a christian band)
Sad but has power through a rock type feel towards end of song.
LYRICS:
Hey Lucy, I remember your name
I left a dozen roses on your grave today
I’m in the grass on my knees, wipe the leaves away
I just came to talk for a while, got some things I need to say
Now that it’s over, I just wanna hold her
I’d give up all the world to see
That little piece of Heaven looking back at me
Now that it’s over, I just wanna hold her
I’ve gotta live with the choices I made
And I can’t live with myself today
Hey Lucy, I remembered your birthday
They said it’d bring some closure to say your name
I know I’d do it all different if I had the chance
But all I got are these roses to give
And they can’t help me make amends
Now that it’s over, I just wanna hold her
I’d give up all the world to see
That little piece of Heaven looking back at me
Now that it’s over, I just wanna hold her
I’ve gotta live with the choices I made
And I can’t live with myself today
Here we are, now you’re in my arms
I never wanted anything so bad
Here we are for a brand new start
Living the life that we could’ve had
Me and Lucy walking hand in hand
Me and Lucy never wanna end
Just another moment in your eyes
I’ll see you in another life in Heaven
Where we never say goodbye
Now that it’s over, I just wanna hold her
I’d give up all the world to see
That little piece of Heaven looking back at me
Now that it’s over, I just wanna hold her
I’ve gotta live with the choices I made
And I can’t live with myself today
Here we are, now you’re in my arms
Here we are for a brand new start
I got to live with the choices I’ve made
And I can’t live with myself today
Me and Lucy walking hand in hand
Me and Lucy never wanna end
I’ve got to live with the choices I’ve made
And I can’t live with myself today
Hey Lucy, I remember your name
Terrible things by Mayday Parade is good too.
