Patches by Dickie Lee, at the end of which he says he's going to commit suicide to join his late girlfriend.

Not your average teen love song, I'll admit!

Just about anything from the Shangri-Las, specially:
Remember (Walking in the Sand)
I Can Never Go Home Anymore

Re: Songs About Teenage Angst

Lonely Teenager - Dion
Born Too Late - Poni-Tails
Society's Child and At Seventeen - Janis Ian
And possibly Eighteen by Alice Cooper ... it ends with "I like it" and "love it", but the rest of the song has a fair amount of angst.

Re: Songs About Teenage Angst

Chestnut Mare by the Byrds
Could there be any song with more angst than a young cowboy with strong feelings about a chestnut mare?
