well im not sure what type of dance you do but. . .stole by kelly rowland is a really good, sad song and it definetly tells a story. . .
here are the lyrics. . .
He was always such a nice boy
The quiet one
With good intentions
He was down for his brother
Respectful to his mother
A good boy
But good don't get attentions
One kid with a promise
The brightest kid in school
He's not a fool
Reading books about science and smart stuff
It's not enough, no
Cause smart don't make you cool, whoa
He's not invisible anymore
With his Father's 9 and a broken fuse
Since he walked through that classroom door
He's all over primetime news
Mary's got the same size hands
As Marilyn Monroe
She put her fingers in the imprints
At Manns Chinese Theater Show
She coulda been a movie star
Never got the chance to go that far
Her life was stole
Now we'll never know
No no no no oh
They were crying to the camera
Said he never fitted in
He wasn't welcomed
He showed up the parties
We was hanging in
Some guys puttin' him down
Bullying him round round
Now I wish I woulda talked to him
Gave him the time of day
Not turn away
If I woulda been the one to maybe go this far
He might have stayed at home
Playing angry chords on his guitar
He's not invisible anymore
With his baggy pants and his legs in chains
Since he walked through that classroom door
Everybody knows his name
Mary's got the same size hands (Oh)
As Marilyn Monroe
She put her fingers in the imprints (Ooh)
At Manns Chinese Theater Show
She coulda been a movie star (She coulda been a movie star, oh)
Never got the chance to go that far
Her life was stole
Now we'll never know
(Now we'll never know, oh)
Greg was always getting net from 20 feet away (20 feet away)
He had a try out with the Sixers
Couldn't wait for Saturday (Saturday)
Now we're never gonna see him slam
Flying high as Kobe can
His life was stole (Stole)
Oh now we'll never know
Now we'll never never never know
Mmm now we'll never never never never know
Stole (Stole)
Oh whoa yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Mary's got the same size hands (Same size hands)
As Marilyn Monroe (Oh)
She put her fingers in the imprints
At Manns Chinese Theater Show (She was gonna be a star)
She coulda been a movie star (Oh no)
Never got the chance to go that far (Never got the chance)
Her life was stole (Stole, stole)
Oh now we'll never know
(Now we'll never never know, no)
Greg was always getting net from 20 feet away (He had game, oh)
He had a try out with the Sixers
Couldn't wait for Saturday
Now we're never gonna see him slam (Never see him)
Flying high as Kobe can
His life was stole (Stole, oh)
Oh now we'll never know
(Now we'll never never know)
Oh no no no
Yeah their lives were stole ]
Hey Im a dancer too, so I actually know a lot of good songs to use here are some sad ones.
"Hurt" by Johnny Cash, this is an actually amazing and sad song,and it has the perfect tempo for lyrical.
If your looking for an ausual song that not many people have heard "pennyless" by Plumb is really good. It tells a story about a homeless girl.
Another good one from Pklumb is "damaged" many people havent heard it, so it will be very original.
This are the best sad songs I have that tells stories. Ive used this songs before, they are very good for dancing. ]
Sarah McLachlan - Angel, Ben's Song, Gloomy Sunday, I Will Remember You, Full Of Grace, Do What You Have To Do, I Love You, Fall From Grace, & many others
Billie Holiday - Gloomy Sunday
Sheryl Crow - The Difficult Kind, Weather Channal, & Dimond Road
Alanis Morissette - Mary-Jane
theres alot, look at mainly Sarah McLachlan, thats her main thing is depressing love songs
hope I helped

hmm depends what you wanna do...sad songs..well theres "wake me up when september ends" but everyones said that. country music has tons of them: "sarabeth" (i almost cried), "how do you get that lonely", "remember when", the list goes on! josh groban "remember when it rained" is good. "going under" or "my immortal" by evenescence, "helena" by MCR. good luck! <3 ]
that helena one by my chemical romance..very depressing
or like toy soldiers by eminem...always makes me cry.
wake me up when septmember ends by green day... way sad cause that same thing happend to me..
youth of the nation by p.o.d. i just plain like that one.. ]
Via Dolorosa's a nice song.
that's pretty much the only nice lyrical song that tells a story. I really like the song though. If you need anymore songs just drop one in my inbox :) ]
omg do Wake me up when september ends. that song is like the best song on this planet!! hope i helped.
You know you love me,

Nobody's Home by: Avril Lavigne ]
Red Hot Chili Peppers - Under The Bridge
That is quite a sad song about the story of frontman, Anthony Kiedis' drug addiction. It's really good and meaningful.
[EDIT] Ooh, another one I just thought of, also by the Red Hot Chili Peppers, called Dosed. It's really sad and touching. ]
