I Dreamed a Dream-Les Miserables
Strongest Suit Reprise-Aida

Actually, most of the music in Les Miz is depressing as well as many of the other songs in Aida

I Wish I Could Go Back to College always makes me really depressed. So does Fine Fine Line.

Other than that:

No More-Into the Woods
No one is Alone-Into the Woods
Why, God, Why-Miss Saigon

There's more I can't think of right now.
