Jeff Buckley - Forgot her , simply mesmerizing
Radiohead - Black star , more about the ending of a relationship
Bob Dylan - Tangled up in blue :
"But all the while I was alone
The past was close behind,
I seen a lot of women
But she never escaped my mind, and I just grew
Tangled up in blue." I don't think i need to say any more
Fleetwood mac - Dreams , sometimes you want you scream to the other person : look what you missed out on .
Bob Dylan - If you see her,say hello - A perfect song from an almost perfect album ( there is a reason the 2/5 of the songs in this short list are taken from it ) , it simply touches your inside parts .

YouTube - Rod Stewart - You Got A Nerve
I heard you were livin down in Brazil with them hi class friends of mine.
I can't believe I was so naive, did I never once cross your mind.
You told them all I was down and out, my existence you even denied.
Oh what pleasure it gives me now, to know that your bleeding inside.

I am not sure about the top 5, but the top 1 has got to be Helloween - Tale That Wasn't Right.

A recent favorite is Katy Perry - I'm Still Breathing (but we've been dead for a while)
I really like this song as with the rest of her album (One of the Boys). All of her songs are very intelligently written.

Ben Folds Five - "Smoke"
Leaf by leaf and page by page
throw this book away
All the sadness all the rage
throw this book away
Rip out the binding and tear the glue
all of the grief we never even knew
we had it all along
Now it's Smoke
