Anathema - Anyone, Anywhere
No one seems to care anymore (as) I wander through this night all alone No one feels the pain I have inside Looking at this world through my eyes No one really cares where I go Searching to feel warmth forever more The wheels of life they turn without me Now you are gone... eternally No... Don't leave me here The dream carries (me) on Inside I know... Its not too late Lost moments blown away Tonight Mankind, with your heresy Can't you see that this is killing me There's no one in this life To be here with me at my side |

Accept Yourself - The Smiths (who else?)
Every day you must say So, how do I feel about my life ? Anything is hard to find When you will not open your eyes When will you accept yourself ? I am sick and I am dull And I am plain How dearly I'd love to get carried away Oh, but dreams have a knack of just not coming true And time is against me now...oh Oh, who and what to blame ? Oh, anything is hard to find When you will not open your eyes When will you accept yourself, for heaven's sake ? Anything is hard to find When you will not open your eyes Every day you must say Oh, how do I feel about the past ? Others conquered love - but I ran I sat in my room and I drew up a plan Oh, but plans can fall through (as so often they do) And time is against me now... And there's no-one left to blame Oh, tell me when will you ... When will you accept your life ? (The one that you hate) For anything is hard to find When you will not open your eyes Every day you must say Oh, how do I feel about my shoes ? They make me awkward and plain How dearly I would love to kick with the fray ... But I once had a dream (and it never came true) And time is against me now... Time is against me now... And there's no one but yourself to blame Oh, anything is hard to find When you will not open your eyes Anything is hard to find; for heaven's sake ! Anything is hard to find When you will not open your eyes When will you accept yourself ? When ? When ? When ? When ? |

Jimmy Eat World - The Middle
Hey, don't write yourself off yet It's only in your head you feel left out Or looked down on Just try your best, try everything you can And don't you worry what they tell themselves When you're away. It just takes some time, little girl in the middle of the ride (over, and over) Everything, everything will be just fine (over, and over) Everything, everything it'll be alright (alright) Hey, you know they're all the same You know you're doing better on your own (on your own) So don't buy in. Live right now Yeah, just be yourself. It doesn't matter if it's good enough For someone else It just takes some time, little girl you're in the middle of the ride (over, and over) Everthing, everything it'll be just fine (over, and over) Everything, everything it'll be alright (alright) It just takes some time, little girl you're in the middle of the ride (over, and over) Everything, everything it'll be just fine (over, and over) Everything, everything it'll be alright (alright) Hey, don't write yourself off yet It's only in your head you feel left out Or looked down on Just do your best, do everything you can. And don't you worry what the bitter hearts, are gonna say LOVE THIS SONG!!!! |

My Own Private Disco - Help She Can't Swim
Come to my house baby, we’ll have a real nice time Take our clothes off, and we’ll drink some wine Let’s watch 80’s re-runs, until our eyes hurt Make each other raw until we think we’ll burst Turn the lights off so no one thinks we’re home If people try to call us we’ll unplug the fone Talk about the future when we’re dead and gone Then we’ll smoke some more, cos it’s much more fun Mebbe the drugs have blurred my eyes But i hope the morning never comes Please make forever be tonite Cos i’m so tired of seeing the sun Hide under the covers, we’ll not be afraid Remember being picked on, and feel glad now we’re saved I wouldn’t care if you were the only one i saw Cos I hate other people, I’m sick of being bored Let’s just sleep forever, forever’s not that long If someone ever finds us, maybe they’ll write a song A heartfelt effigy of why we had to hide And why we couldn’t cope with the big wide world outside Mebbe the drugs have blurred my eyes But i hope the morning never comes Please make forever be tonite Cos i’m so tired of seeing the sun Don’t wanna turn around Incase you disappear And it’s the nicest dream But you were never here |

Re: social phobic songs/lyrics
I found an Arctic Monkeys song called 7
Well I wrote my number down Never wrote it down before Was gonna bring it over like something from a film But I didn't have the bottle at all Well I'm looking and you kept staring Your thoughts bearing up with mine And when you're so pretty and I'm so shy You probably didn't give me the eye but I'm sure you did Well I went outside Couldn't say I tried And I felt regret Because you haven't bashed me and dashed back in Cause the ship hasn't sailed yet But when I did I couldn't see your face I could see your mates but that wouldn't do Well I dashed around, tried to find you But you were, nowhere to be seen Oh no no... Well she moved in ways, that kept her there In our minds for days And weeks and months I was that amazed And there she stayed Surrounded by the what if's and the maybe's |

Re: social phobic songs/lyrics
heya, this is a song by jack of jill it's a beautiful song called vivica
Oh Vivica I wish you well I watch you burn in humid hell No sleeping pills no old tattoos will save you now He'll never change he's just too vague he'll never say you're beautiful Oh Vivica I wish you well I really do, I really do The apple falls far from the tree she's rotten and so beautiful I'd like to keep her here with me and tell her that she's beautiful She takes the pills to fall asleep and dreams that she's invisible Tormented dreams she stays awake recalls when she was capable... Oh Vivica I wish you well I watch you sit I watch you dwell No crooked spine no torn up rag will save you now He'll never change he's not that brave He'll never say you're beautiful Oh Vivica I wish you well I really do, I really do The apple falls far from the tree she's rotten and so beautiful I'd like to keep her here with me and tell her that she's beautiful She takes the pills to fall asleep and dreams that she's invisible Tormented dreams she stays awake recalls when she was capable... Oh Vivica I wish you well I'll sit right here I'll never tell no tender scar no twist of fate will save you now He'll never change he's just not there He'll never say you're beautiful Oh Vivica I wish you will I really do, I really do The apple falls far from the tree she's rotten and so beautiful I'd like to keep her here with me and tell her that she's beautiful She takes the pills to fall asleep and dreams that she's invisible Tormented dreams she stays awake recalls when she was capable... She's empty and so beautiful I'll keep her here with me |

Dream Theater - Panic Attack
All wound up On the edge Terrified Sleep disturbed Restless mind Petrified Bouts of fear Permeate All I see Heightening Nervousness Threatens me I am paralyzed So afraid to die Caught off guard Warning signs Never show Tension strikes Choking me Worries grow Why do I feel so numb Is it something to do with where I come from Should this be fight or flight I don't know why I'm constantly so uptight Rapid heartbeat pounding through my chest Agitated body in distress I feel like I'm in danger Daily life is strangled by my stress A stifling surge Shooting through all my veins Extreme apprehension Suddenly I'm insane Lost all hope for redemption A grave situation desperate at best Why do I feel so numb Is it something to do with where I come from Should this be fight or flight I don't know why I'm constantly reeling Helpless hysteria A false sense of urgency Trapped in my phobia Possessed by anxiety Run Try to hide Overwhelmed by this complex delirium Helpless hysteria A false sense of urgency Trapped in my phobia Possessed by anxiety Run Try to hide Overwhelmed by this complex delirium |

Elliott Smith: between the bars
Drink up baby, stay up all night With the things you could do You won't but you might The potential you'll be that you'll never see The promises you'll only make Drink up with me now And forget all about the pressure of days Do what I say and I'll make you okay And drive them away The images stuck in your head The people you've been before That you don't want around anymore That push and shove and won't bend to your will I'll keep them still Drink up baby, look at the stars I'll kiss you again between the bars Where I'm seeing you there with your hands in the air Waiting to finally be caught Drink up one more time and I'll make you mine Keep you apart, deep in my heart Separate from the rest, where I like you the best And keep the things you forgot The people you've been before That you don't want around anymore That push and shove and won't bend to your will I'll keep them still and waltz #2: First the mic, then a half cigarette Singing Kathy's clown That's the man she's married to now That's the girl that he takes around town She appears composed So she is, I suppose Who can really tell? She shows no emotion at all Stares into space like a dead china doll I'm never gonna know you now but I'm gonna love you anyhow Now she's done, and they're calling someone Such a familiar name I'm so glad that my memory's remote 'Cos I'm doing just fine hour to hour, note to note Here it is, the revenge to the tune You're no good, you're no good, you're no good, you're no good Can't you tell that it's well understood? I'm never gonna know you now but I'm gonna love you anyhow I'm here today, expect it to stay on, and on, and on I'm tired, I'm tired Looking out on the substitute scene Still going strong XO Mom It's OK, it's alright, nothing's wrong Tell Mr. Man with impossible plans To just leave me alone In the place where I make no mistakes In the place where I have what it takes I'm never gonna know you now but I'm gonna love you anyhow I'm never gonna know you now but I'm gonna love you anyhow I'm never gonna know you now but I'm gonna love you anyhow

Love song for the socially anxious?
Nervously - Pet Shop Boys A nervous boy in several ways I never knew the world could operate this way I was nervous when we stopped to speak and the world came crashing around my feet We don't talk of love we're much too shy but nervously we wonder when and why A nervous boy in spite of which I never thought I could tremble as much as this Your flashing eyes and sudden smiles are never quite at ease and neither am I Oh we'll talk about it all some night but nervously we never get it Right from the start I approved of you right from the moment you turned to face me A nervous boy from another town with a nervous laugh and a concentrated frown I spoke too fast with watchful eyes of a recent past and some nostalgic surprise We don't talk of love we're much too shy but nervously we wonder when and smile knowing why I approved of you right from the moment you turned to face me a nervous boy |

Re: social phobic songs/lyrics
Up On The Roof, by the Drifters:
When this old world starts getting me down and people are just too much for me to face, I climb way up to the top of the stair and all my cares just drift right into space. On the roof it's peaceful as can be and there's a world below can't bother me. Let me tell you now, When I come home feeling tired and weak I go up where the air is fresh and sweet. I get away from the hustling crowd and all that rat-race noise down in the street. On the roof's the only place I know where you just have to wish to make it so let's go up on the roof. At night the stars put on a show for free and, darling, you can share it all with me. I keep on telling you right smack dab in the middle of town I found a paradise that's trouble proof. And if this world starts getting you down there's room enough for two up on the roof. |

Girl laying down - Anna Ternheim.
Check out the video, its creepy/beautiful. And if you like it she has some other beautiful songs about lonelyness and such. Especially look for "To be gone" and "Shoreline" I would say. I know a girl laying down she's sleeping weeks at a time and when she wakes up she watches tv counting cracks in the ceiling no I don't know what she's thinking so I gave up waiting for someone waiting talking to someone staring I never come around I never come around I left her for 15 years behind girls laying down never come around so much for girls staying in afraid of being needed and seen, she watches the world on a screen she's distant god knows I've tried to leave her cause she's got a constant fever I let it slip my mind I never come around I never come around I left her 15 years behind I know a girl laying down no, I never waisted my time we have something in common she's as indifferent as I am. |

Re: social phobic songs/lyrics
I've always thought of this song as a person accepting & trying to beat SA/shyness
REM: Walk Unafraid As the sun comes up as the moon Goes down These heavy notions creep around It makes me think Long ago I was brought into This life a little lamb A little lamb Courageous stumbling Fearless was my middle name But somewhere there i Lost my way Everyone walks the same Expecting me to step The narrow path theyve laid They claim to Walk unafraid Ill be clumsy instead Hold my love me or leave me High Say keep within the boundaries if you want To play Say contradiction only makes it harder How can I be What I want to be When all I want to do is strip away These stilled constraints And crush this charade Shred this sad masquerade I dont need no persuading Ill trip, fall, pick myself up and Walk unafraid Ill be clumsy instead Hold my love me or leave me High If I have a bag of rocks to carry as I go I just want to hold my head up high I dont care what I have to step over Im prepared to look you in the eye Look me in the eye And if you see familiarity Then celebrate the contradiction Help me when I fall to Walk unafraid Ill be clumsy instead Hold my love me or leave me High Walk unafraid Ill be clumsy instead Hold my love me or leave me High |

Jens Lekman - It Was A Strange Time In My Life
The Spanish girl pointed at me and said, "silencio" Making a little gesture as if switching off a radio Sliding her fingers 'cross her lips as if shutting a zipper And I clearly got the message; I didn't need to ask her Making the reverse zipper 'cross my lips, opening for conversation Signaling the international sign of reckless contemplation Shrugging her shoulders and lifting up the hand that rested on her thigh Her middle finger extended until its simple message could not be denied I turned 17 and I swore to never speak a word again But then someone came along and ruined everything It was a strange time in my life People seem to think a shy personality equals gifted But if they would get to know one I'm sure that idea would have shifted Most shy people I know are extremely boring Either that or they are miserable from all the shit they've been storing I turned 17 and I swore to never speak a word again But then someone came along and ruined everything It was a strange time in my life I had a good time at the party when everyone had left I flirted with a girl in sign language 'cause she was deaf It was a strange time in my life It was a strange time in my life |

Re: social phobic songs/lyrics
When I heard this song it really reminded me of my life, it may sound very self pitying and whiny but I really love it. Not sure if it reminds me of my SA or depression, probably both. My friends don't seem to be too keen on simple plan but I can identify with quite a few of their songs
Simple Plan - I'm just a kid I woke up it was 7 I waited till 11 Just to figure out that no one would call I think i got a lot of friends but I don't hear from them What's another night all alone? When your spending everyday on your own And here it goes [Chorus:] I'm just a kid and life is a nightmare I'm just a kid, I know that its not fair Nobody cares, cause I'm alone and the world is Having more fun than me Tonight... And maybe when the night is dead, I'll crawl into my bed Staring at these 4 walls again I'll try to think about the last time, I had a good time Everyone's got somewhere to go And they're gonna leave me here on my own and here it goes I'm just a kid and life is a nightmare I'm just a kid, I know that its not fair Nobody cares, cause I'm alone and the world is Having more fun than me What the f*** is wrong with me? Don't fit in with anybody How did this happen to me? Wide awake I'm bored and I can't fall asleep And every night is the worst night ever I'm just a kid [repeat x5] I'm just a kid and life is a nightmare I'm just a kid, I know that its not fair Nobody cares, cause I'm alone and the world is Nobody wants to be alone in the world. I'm just a kid and life is a nightmare I'm just a kid, I know that its not fair Nobody cares, cause I'm alone and the world is Nobody wants to be alone in the world Nobody cares, cause I'm alone and the world is Having more fun than me tonight I'm all alone tonight Nobody cares tonight Cause I'm just a kid tonight |

This song is by agua de annique, it relates to SA cos it conveys difficulties within a relationship, but i'm mostly posting it cos it's a seriously amazing song
 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HLXNboYviFo Beautiful One Your hair shines in the sun I wish I'd never left The wind intwines our hair Our words get swept through the air I wish I never left Your face shines in my eyes Our last look before our goodbye I wish I never left Beuatiful One You shine like the sun I wish I never left Before I have said You are the one You are the one Your sun will come and go But its beauty will keep its glow I wish your rays would shine over me Keep filling me with your beauty I wish I never left I wish I never left |

And another Garbage song that made me think of SA, but it's also about suicide...
So like a rose- Baby thinks hes dying Lost inside his bedroom Mommy wont stop crying And daddys always working Theres no going back Theres no going back Theres no going back On this one Baby wakes up with the sun While everyone is sleeping He thinks hes going crazy This could be the big one Sleeping with ghosts Its such a lonely experience The stars are out tonight Only they can hear you breathing Youre so like a rose I wish you could stay here |

Souless Child- Laura Marling You won***8217;t even look at yourself in the mirror anymore. Can't tell dream from reality. I couldn't take it so i opened your door, I saw things i should never see. Someone you look up to crying in their bed, someone you want to be losing their head. Soulless Child once (so white?) Now a shadow of what they used to be, they used to be so close to me. Soulless Child once (so white?) Now a ghost roaming endless halls thinking that she gets no calls.

I've seen you twice, in a short time Only a week since we started It seems to me, for every time I'm getting more open-hearted I was an impossible case No-one ever could reach me But I think I can see in your face There's a lot you can teach me So I wanna know.. What's the name of the game? Does it mean anything to you? What's the name of the game? Can you feel it the way I do? Tell me please, cause I have to know I'm a bashful child, beginning to grow And you make me talk And you make me feel And you make me show What I'm trying to conceal If I trust in you, would you let me down? Would you laugh at me, if I said I care for you? Could you feel the same way too? I wanna know.. The name of the game I have no friends, no-one to see And I am never invited Now I am here, talking to you No wonder I get excited Your smile, and the sound of your voice And the way you see through me Got a feeling, you give me no choice But it means a lot to me So I wanna know.. What's the name of the game? (your smile and the sound of your voice) Does it mean anything to you? (got a feeling you give me no choice) (but it means a lot) What's the name of the game? (your smile and the sound of your voice) Can you feel it the way I do? Tell me please, cause I have to know I'm a bashful child, beginning to grow And you make me talk And you make me feel And you make me show What I'm trying to conceal If I trust in you, would you let me down? Would you laugh at me, if I said I care for you? Could you feel the same way too? I wanna know.. Oh yes I wanna know.. The name of the game (I was an impossible case) Does it mean anything to you?

Re: social phobic songs/lyrics
A song of comfort for all sorts of problems.
Simon and Garfunkel - Bridge Over Trouble Water When you’re weary, feeling small, When tears are in your eyes, I will dry them all; I’m on your side. When times get rough And friends just can’t be found, Like a bridge over troubled water I will lay me down. Like a bridge over troubled water I will lay me down. When you’re down and out, When you’re on the street, When evening falls so hard I will comfort you. I’ll take your part. When darkness comes And pain is all around, Like a bridge over troubled water I will lay me down. Like a bridge over troubled water I will lay me down. Sail on silvergirl, Sail on by. Your time has come to shine. All your dreams are on their way. See how they shine If you need a friend I’m sailing right behind. Like a bridge over troubled water I will ease your mind. Like a bridge over troubled water I will ease your mind. |

High Anxiety by the Suicide Machines. It may have more to do with agoraphobia though.
Well [Chorus:] It's the high anxiety A victim of society High anxiety I A victim of society High anxiety, my It's my high anxiety getting to the best of me Sometimes I feel like I'm gonna explode And when I'm approaching total overload I know that when I'm having a panic attack To duck and cover, cause I can feel it coming [Chorus] This time I feel like I'm gonna die Cold sweat, the fear is paralyzing You know I wish that this was over and done Heart pounds, I can feel it escalating [Chorus] I don't know why Sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night I don't know why I gasp for breath I'm really feeling like I'm on the brink of death I don't know why Sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night I don't know why I gasp for breath I'm really feeling like I'm on the brink of death I wish I could get this crisis under control Then I could feel some kind of closure I feel this could go on and on without end I guess I'll just have to ride it out cause [Chorus 2x] |

Is the answer to the question on your mind And I'm sick of all my judges they're so scared of letting me shine But I know that I can make it As long as somebody takes me home Wooooooo!
