Prevent This Tragedy & Radio by Alkaline Trio
Sorrow by Boxcar Racer
Darkness by Disturbed
The Unforgiven 2 by Metallica
The Approaching Curve by Rise Against
Lonely Day by System of a Down
Dry Lake Bed by Years Around the Sun
Ok, this is more than ten, but, I think it's more emotion based than depressing. Also, note the difference in times between these lists.

Though I have an extensive music library containing a lot of generally considered to be depressive music, I find most of the songs in there inspiring therefore constructively energizing instead. However some songs leave me feeling sad and down after listening even though I may find them beautifully composed and constructed... This list is, genre wise, and thus the reason WHY I find them depressive, pretty incohesive, but still, here it is:
In no particular order:
Famous Blue Raincoat - Leonard Cohen
Emma (the Hot Chocolate song) - The Sisters of Mercy
The Eternal - Joy Division
Severance - Dead Can Dance (the Bauhaus version is probably even more depressing)
Joey - Bob Dylan
Don't Give Up - Peter Gabriel & Kate Bush
Suicide is Painless (the MASH theme)
Purity - The God Machine
Stoned Obituary (part 2) - The Legendary Pink Dots
Jeanny - Falco ( yep that song really gets me down....)

I kind of go With George Jones myself, for depressing songs.. He stopped loving her today is in fact the most depressing song I've heard...
My favorite for stirring emotion actually hails from this site:
http://forum.bandamp.com/Audio_Review/1257.html
I think this one is amazing... It's a story of his life... His turmoil... His pain...... Awesome song.....
The fact that the metaphor and life crash together in this song makes it so powerful..... Exceptional writing...
And very emotional..... Got major love for ya Buzz....
