Lady Gaga/Tear Jerker

This pop performer has more than a few emotional songs.

Songs
"Whenever I'm dressed cool,
 * For some of us, "Hair" can be this -- due to the "I just wanna be free, I just wanna be me, and I want lots of friends that invite me to their parties" line halfway through.
 * The beginning verses of "Hair" are the sad Truth in Television for many. Anyone who has had parents not accept them for who they are and instead try to change them could cry at these lines:

My parents put up a fight.

And if I'm hot shot,

Mom will cut my hair at night.

And in the morning,

I'm short of my identity.

I scream "Mom and Dad,

Why can't I be who I want to be?""

"Don’t be insecure,
 * "Speechless" is a song about breaking up with someone who did something abusive to her. Especially her live performances of the song can be emotional.
 * "Bad Kids" and the message behind it can bring a tear to the eye of anyone who was one of the "bad kids" when they were growing up and told they were a "lost cause" and they'd never "amount to anything":

If your heart is pure.

You’re still good to me if you’re a bad kid baby.

Also the lines My parents tried/Until they got divorced cause I ruined their lives."

"You gotta a lotta, lotta nerve, coming here,
 * "Again Again"

while I'm still with him

and I can't have you, it isn't fair"

"In your brown eyes, walked away
 * And "Brown Eyes"

In your brown eyes, couldn't stay

In your brown eyes, you watch her go"

"I wish that I could dance on a single prayer/ I wish I could be strong without permission yeah
 * "Scheiße" really speaks to anyone (young women in particular) who's ever felt debilitating insecurity:

I wish that I could dance on a single prayer/ I wish I could be strong without the Scheiße yeah"

"Something, something about this place
 * "Yoü And I" gets everybody the pure emotion and honesty in the song... However, due to the epic nature of the song, it's likely happy tears.

Something ‘bout lonely nights and my lipstick on your face

Something, something about my cool Nebraska guy

Yeah something about, baby, you and I"


 * "Dance In The Dark". "Marilyn, Judy, Sylvia, tell 'em how you feel, girls! Work your blonde, Jean Benet Ramsey. We'll haunt like liberace. Find your Jesus, find your Kurbrick. You will never fall apart, Diana, you're still in our hearts. Never let you fall apart, together we'll dance in the dark." No matter what your personal feelings on these women were, you can't really deny that they all needed someone to look after them -- and they didn't get it.
 * "Dance In The Dark" becomes a tear jerker after you find that the song is about a girl who is very, very insecure.

Real Life

 * When she breaks down in her HBO special about how she still feels like a loser still and is a fucking loser kid in high school in her head after all she'd achieved and done for the world.
 * Being interviewed after her performance on the 2012 New Year's Rockin' Eve, she was clearly overwhelmed and honored to be part of the celebration. For a moment her stage persona went away, and she became just an ordinary twenty-something girl who'd just took part in something big.
