There's a hyperspecific genre of song that always makes me cry; sci-fi "filk" music about spacemen who sacrifice themselves for their crew.
Ballad of a Spaceman
Some Kind of Hero
Sam Jones
Dawson's Christian
"I'm as good as dead, but there's still something I can do to save everyone else, so that has to be enough."

I went to a used bookstore. Found some stuff I wasn't expecting to.
Duane is always really good, and L.A. Graf (Let's All Get Rich And Famous) is a group of filkers who also wrote. Then there's one actually just by Julia Ecklar (of the golden voice) and some CJ Cherryh.

🎵
I am tall. I am strong. I live deep in the hill.
And I love a good brawl, and I love a good kill.
And that's all I hold true in this whole world of lies.
Damn its heart! Damn its guts! Damn its eyes!
🎵
Oh my sire was a troll,
and my dam was an elf.
They had plans for my use. I had plans for myself.
From his frame I grew strong. From her wit I grew wise.
Damn their hearts! Damn their guts! Damn their eyes!
🎵
I forge chains of intrigue. I make fine tools of war.
I will stalk through your hold. I can take any door.
I will drag down my foe; and I'll laugh at her cries.
Damn her heart! Damn her guts! Damn her eyes!
🎵
I'll pit elf against troll, your dead 'peace' I'll destroy.
See me now, Mother Dear!
Aren't you proud of your boy?
To my hall you'll all come, to the end I've devised.
Damn your heart!
Damn your guts!
Damn your eyes!

I feel like Space Ballad is a genre that should do wonderfully here, so if I have your attention... give this a listen, and check out some of the other stuff the uploader has found. It's a fantastic collection of some specific-ass people in specific-ass situations.

Stuff I listen to on my way to work.
 Weird stuff I listen to on my way to home visits:
Ok, so technically I wasn't driving to a home visit at 1:00 a.m., but I was driving to work, so I think it counts. It also is not as weird as it sometimes is. I have loved filk since I learned it existed, so it is frequently what I'm listening to when I don't have kids in the car. Unfortunately, most of the small humans do not appreciate filk like I do. But this morning there were no small humans in the car, so I listened to Crimson and Crystal.
