Ken Stringfellow (formerly of the Posies) has one called [“Down Like Me”](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nOan8usma6g) (2001). Sung to a dead lover – and it gets darker from there. (Lyrics in the YouTube description.)

I am told that [Autumn Leaves](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xXBNlApwh0c) is one such song. At any rate, it’s very sad.
