Quite a niche song about suicide -the first one not in English on the thread- from 🇪🇨. The link to listen it is here and I will translate the lyrics below:

Miles de Días en el Vértice Suicida (Thousands of Days in the Suicidal Apex)

Español

Cuando tienes encerrado al infinito en la mente
Hace miles de días
Todos te gritan por dentro
Cuando la soledad te deja en manos del exceso
Gritas por dentro

Cuando te equilibras de cabeza
En el vértice suicida
Gritas por dentro

Porque puedes ver a través de cicatrices luminosas

¡Grita!

English

When the infinite is locked in your mind
Thousands of days ago
Everyone's screaming inside you
When loneliness leaves you in the hands of excess
You scream inside

When you balance on your head
At the suicidal apex
You scream inside

Because you can see through luminous scars

Scream!

This one by a JP singer Aimyon ..

and the translation of the JP lyric ..
https://lyricstranslate.com/en/ikite-itanda-yo-na-生きていたんだよな-she-lived-didnt-she.html

quite an unusual song, esp. in JP where traditions are still a stronghold ..

Aimyon is an alternative pop singer as her song and her image leave a deep impressions on this generation of JP youngsters as she dares to voice out through her songs the hardships, sufferings, and huge pressures that these "average" youngsters are facing ..

An extremely obvious one from their debut album touching the depression topic so far as well -the title track of the disc-.



Deep inside it sleeps
Time is all it needs
Rising from your soul
This feeling will take control
Thinkin' 'bout suicide
The preacher says "this is not right"
But everything is going wrong
You can't change, you're not strong

Come, here is the gun
Come on give in
To your obsession
Now, if you are strong
You'll pull the trigger
For your depression...

Maybe the other life will come
Maybe there's nothing and you were wrong
Maybe there is heaven may be there is hell
Maybe there is nothing and you have failed

Pull the trigger - shoot yourself
Take the pills and poison yourself

You think this is just a dream
Soon you'll realize this is real
You have to act, you can't wait
Try to get out, it's too late...

Thinking about suicide
The preacher says "This is not right"
But everything is going wrong
You cannot change, you're so strong

Come, here is your gun
Come and give in
To your obsession
Now, if you are strong
You'll pull the trigger
For your depression...

I have never felt such frustration
Or lack of self control
I want you to kill me
And dig me under
I want to live no more
One who doesn't care
is one who shouldn't be
I've tried to hide myself from what is wrong for me
For me
I want to taste dirty
a stinging pistol
In my mouth, on my tongue
I want you to scrape me from the walls
And go crazy
like you've made me
One who doesn't care
is one who shouldn't be
I've tried to hide myself from what is wrong for me
One who doesn't care
is one who shouldn't be
I've tried to hide myself from what is wrong for me, for me
You, you are so special
You have the talent
to make me feel like dirt
And you, you use your talent
to dig me under
And cover me with dirt
One who doesn't care
is one who shouldn't be
I've tried to hide myself from what is wrong for me
One who doesn't care
is one who shouldn't be
I've tried to hide myself from what is wrong for me

Ozzy Osbourne: Suicide Solution
Nirvana: I Hate Myself And Want To Die

On a more lighthearted note, "Elevator Operator" by Courtney Barnett where the narrator thinks Oliver Paul is suicidal but really he's just unfulfilled because he hates his job and wants to be an elevator operator.
