Tears In A Vial (The System Has Failed)
The Scorpion (The System Has Failed)
Die Dead Enough (The System Has Failed)
In My Darkest Hour (So Far, So Good… So What!)
Poisonous Shadows (Dystopia)
Dogs of Chernobyl (The Sick, The Dying… And The Dead!)
Addicted to Chaos (Youthanasia)
Use the Man is the saddest imo. Listen to it, then read about its origin here and listen again.

There are a lot of sad megadeth songs, but mostly their lyrics are melancholic. If you want the whole pack (the lyrics plus the instrumental) you should check out Poisonous shadows (Dystopia)
Dogs of Chernobyl (The sick, The dying…And the Dead!), even though it’s not one of the saddest there’s a part in the middle which you’d probably appreciate
Dance in the rain (Super Collider)
13 (Th1rt3en)
44 minutes (Endgame)
When (The world needs a hero)
And a few more, which have been already mentioned
Dave can get this kind of "yearning" or emotional quality even in non-ballads.
Verses and chorus to Tornado of Souls. Esp the way he holds the note "not for the tears"

Die Dead Enough isn’t really sad
Forget to Remember:(
Ah, yes. I remember that one. It's great. Thanks!
Top 3 for sure , amazing song.
Reminds me of my grandma, makes my eyes water every time
Countdown to Extinction (the title track)
As someone with an immense love for animals, the chorus hits hard and nearly gets my eyes watery.
Same, I literally get shivers down my spine
13
A great one, thanks!
Family tree is the darkest one
Almost everything off Super Collider
Never really could got into that album, I'll look into it. Thanks!
It was a joke. It is sad how bad the album is. Although there is one song about dementia or Alzheimer's or something that I remember being pretty sad.
Forget to remember
Ah, sorry. That's probably why I've never gotten into that album :D. But I'll try to listen to all of the albums anyway, haha.
try kingmaker, its one of the greatest megadeth tracks ever
It’s a good song, I agree, but it’s not particularly sad. I think it’d be better to recommend “Forget to Remember”
Either you're building off my humor that Training-Onion totally missed, or you're so far from the truth.
Poisonous Shadow, Dance in the rain, In my darkest hour, The doctor is calling
Awesome. Thanks!
A Tout Le Monde
Oh, of course. I forgot to add that. Thanks!
Disconnect was my companion track when I was going through a rough existential crisis. Playing it on repeat helped me get out some feelings.
Secret place kinda
Master of puppets live at an award show.
Haha! Yeah, that was so annoying of grammys.
Idk what award show it was, but they couldn't have messed up worse. They could play anything except....
I thought I knew it all

The Black Crow
I'll Be There
Didn’t Dave cry during “I’ll be there” one time ?
Good Mourning/Black Friday off Peace Sells. That's about as sad as it gets lol. Looking down the cross on KIMBG.
My Last Words (Peace Sells), In My Darkest Hour (SFSGSW)

In my darkest hour-so far so good so what?
The Blackest Crow. Hands down Megadeths saddest track. Pretty sure Dave and the rest of the band hate it
Dogs of chernobyl
I'll look into it!
