“Pessimistic” Songs

I wish I could tell you that I am an "always look on the bright side" kind of person. But I'm not – I'm a pessimist and a worrywart. If you're like me, you're sure to enjoy these songs. If you're less of a Debbie Downer, then the next post ("Optimistic" Songs) will suit you just fine.  ~  JH
