This Illusion and indeed any of its piano renditions, rom the various Fate/Stay Night soundtracks

Melissan's Theme from the Baldur's Gate 2 soundtrack. An instrumental piece that stands for the end of an era.

My House On Mars by Ayreon

Farewell] by Summoning

Something for everyone.[/url]
 


Although we may rationalise

Nurture our fate
Nothing can prepare or compare with
This immeasurable sense of loss


All can be calm
Until that thought arises
And plummets toward the ground


Time passes like the dripping of a tap
And sleep, becomes that time when the body can no longer be awake
Each morning, eyes blearier than the night before


But it had passed,
As I was there within it
Watching over as if through the eyes of another
Through conscious repetition,
But my thoughts were elsewhere


Longing, but unable to take the steps
That might continue this journey


Indignant in this bleak landscape, that no longer binds
Each serene moment, accompanied by another full of dread


And I resolve,
To that familiar feeling time tries so hard to bury
To live life, only to bear

I walk alone by greenday, play that song over and over in my head when I am sad. Its the one song which fits what I feel a lot of the time.

Probably counts as cheating in several ways, but...

I nominate this:



Radiohead did arguably their best work as purveyors of melancholy and alienation on OK Computer, and "Exit Music (For A Film)" conjures images of futile escape and ill will beautifully.
 
Here's one I think is pretty tragic although I don't know if its the sound you want.
