What is the saddest teenage tragedy (aka splatter platter) song?

[OregonGuy]

These are songs where a teenager dies.

Usually the cause of death is a crash. Examples include ...
Leader of the Pack
Dead Man’s Curve
Tell Laura I Love Her
Teen Angel
The Last Kiss

Sometimes overbearing parents are implicated. Examples include ...
Leader Of The Pack
Running Bear
Patches

Patches makes me feel the most sad because it depicts a double teenage suicide caused by overbearing parents placing their societal values over their son’s desire for a girl “from across the tracks”

FYI while looking up a list of songs in this category I came across one I had never heard before: Think – Once You Understand by some group I have never heard before ChiefBoyScout Like Patches it is a stinging rebuke of parents. I am guessing it did not get played much because the establishment censored it.

We have individual ends to our beginnings here and now.
I like to believe death frees our consciousness from our existing confines,
So death marks the end of our time now and the beginning of a new awareness.

Teen Angel

I wonder why she was not wearing his ring.
