16 Anxiety Songs That Say It All - Drink-Drink
If you live with anxiety, you may have already discovered that music can calm many of your anxious thoughts. When physical or emotional symptoms become overwhelming, your favorite songs or relaxing playlist can help you find a sense of calm.
You may also feel some relief knowing that you are not alone. Knowing that others have experienced similar disturbing thoughts can be comforting and help you deal with the situation.
Listening to songs about anxiety, such as the 16 listed below, can help normalize your experience and replace feelings of isolation with feelings of connection and solidarity.
Lyrics, of course, can have several interpretations. We settled on these songs from different genres because their lyrics somehow describe what living with anxiety can look like.
Alternative
The Crucifixion by Tori Amos
Amos's poetic, confessional lyrics are open to many interpretations, but if you're socially anxious, you can find many things to identify with in The Crucifixion.
The opening lines "Every finger in the room is pointing at me" might resonate if you've ever walked into a room feeling uncomfortable, only to feel like a spotlight has suddenly turned on to illuminate you even more.
It touches on the physical symptoms of fear: "I have a bowling ball in my stomach / I have a desert in my mouth / Numbers that my courage would decide to sell now."
But it is precisely the refrain “Why do we crucify ourselves” that resembles an endless analysis of looped anxious thoughts. You know it doesn't help, but you still can't stop dissecting them.
"Fear" by The Shins
Anxiety does not always have a clear trigger. Sometimes it's just an obsessive fear that you live with, a "fear of all the stupid things" that you can feel.
James Mercer spoke about his own experience of anxiety when discussing this song in an interview, explaining that it describes various anxieties that can slowly destroy a relationship.
"Young Thousands" of mountain goats
Living with anxiety often means fighting fears about what the future holds. You can often feel consumed by "the things you have," as John Darniel sings.
Maybe the anxiety and stress you are experiencing leaves you with a "dull ache" that never seems to go away, or your brain sometimes feels like a closet where you've hidden video tapes of disturbing memories or "dirty little scenes in living flowers.
Muse Issue Map
It's undeniable that anxiety often makes you feel isolated and alone, especially when you get caught up in the cycle of worry and rumination.
This song conveys the frustration you may experience when you feel like every choice you make is wrong. Various possibilities play out and seem to elude you as you try to find a way to avoid feelings of fear, panic and despair.
"Concertina" Tori Amos
Amos explained in an interview that the song highlights her own experience of social anxiety when she enters a room and feels "so uncomfortable that you're crawling out of your skin even though no one has touched you."
The lyrics "fever above my waist" and "chill that bends" can describe the sweating and chills that often accompany anxiety, while "you're the most furious peace I've been in" seems to refer directly to anxiety.
When nervousness and anxiety rages inside you to the point where you are sure everyone can see it clearly in your face, you may be surprised to realize how unperturbed you appear to others.
"Basket" from Green Day
If you turned on the radio once or twice in the late 90s and early 2000s, you've probably heard this song before.
Vocalist/guitarist Billie Joe Armstrong has stated that he wrote the song to cope with feelings of anxiety and panic he experienced before he was eventually diagnosed with panic disorder.
It's not uncommon to struggle with anxiety for a while before you find a way to make sense of what you're going through. You may even wonder, like Armstrong, if it's all in your head or if your mind is "playing tricks on you."
(But if you are not sure what your symptoms mean, a therapist can give further advice.)

"Deceiving Yourself (Angry Young Man)" by Styx
This song helps convey the pessimism that often accompanies anxiety, or the tendency to look at things "cynically". Even when things are actually going pretty well, you may have trouble moving forward when your hands are "wet with sweat" and "your head needs to rest" due to worry.
However, the lyrics emphasize the importance of remembering that others can't beat you and doing your best anyway.
"The Paper Bag Writer" by Radiohead
The opening phrase "Blow into that paper bag" is reminiscent of a person trying to cope with feelings of panic, as breathing into a paper bag has long been considered a useful method of hyperventilating that can occur during anxiety and panic attacks .
"Take off your armor, you're not being attacked" illustrates a key symptom of panic attacks: an overwhelming perception of fear unrelated to any real threat.
"Losing My Religion" by REM
Michael Stipe said that this song is not about religion, but about unrequited love, an experience that often causes intense feelings of anxiety and disappointment.
Moreover, texts such as "I said too much / I said not enough" and "Every whisper, every waking hour / I choose my confessions" reflect the experience of anxiety quite clearly.
You probably know this feeling - you cannot find the right words, so you keep talking, perhaps in the hope that you will finally be able to express your feelings. But then you can endlessly worry that you tried too hard or said too much.
"A Million Little Pieces" by Placebo
Anxiety can disrupt concentration and make it difficult to complete tasks as usual. A Million Little Pieces is about what it's like when you think you've lost your spark, your creativity, and struggle to find your way forward. Perhaps you are haunted by mistakes, or you are tired of trying to deal with them without any relief.
But you can also find a hopeful note in the song: You are leaving this "disturbing city" and breaking the circle of disturbing thoughts.
"The Middle" Jimmy Ita Mira
Radio stations in the early 2000s sang this uplifting anthem about staying true to yourself and overcoming social anxiety.
Of course, dealing with the overwhelming fear of rejection is not always as easy as telling yourself that the perception of people who look down on you is all in your head.
Still, it's good advice to start with, even if you need a little extra support to stop worrying about what people might say about you. And a catchy beat doesn't hurt if you're looking for a fast tune to lift your spirits.
Pop
Red Light Fever by Liz Phair
This song might resonate with you if anxiety has ever kept you awake, obsessing over your fears, your goals, or even your sense of who you are as a person.
Perhaps you know what form you want your life to take. However, your worries are holding you back, making you stuck in your head, "going nowhere" and nervous about pursuing your dreams and taking the first steps towards achieving them.
"Shake It Out" by Florence + The Machine
Isn't it wonderful how anxiety makes it so easy to reflect on every humiliating moment and embarrassing situation you've ever found yourself in?
The lyrics of "Shake It Out" don't just reflect the experience of reliving "the darkest moments" when those memories are "gathered like old friends". They also emphasize how difficult it is to get rid of these memories and leave the past behind.
Florence Welch herself noted that the song reflects the desire to restart when you are stuck in unwanted behaviors.
Rihanna's "Disturbia"
According to Rihanna, who spoke about her experience with anxiety in an interview, this song explores what it's like to deal with anxiety and emotional stress.
If you yourself experience anxiety, you may be familiar with thoughts that “sneak in” and “swallow you” or fears that you “don't want to think about” that grab and hold you anyway.
You might even hope, as she sings, for something to free you from the "curse" of anxiety and fear.
rap
"Anxiety" by Bmike
This song offers a deep personal look at the challenges often associated with getting professional support and finding the right treatment for anxiety, suicidal thoughts and other emotional disorders.
Bmike also talks about how frustrating it can be when talking therapy doesn't work despite your best efforts and the therapist seems somewhat unaware of your concerns.
In the YouTube description, he notes that the music video aims to raise awareness about mental health issues and expose the stigma that many people face.
Heavy metal
Iron Maiden's "fear of the dark"
Phobias also fall under the category of anxiety states, and nyctophobia, or extreme fear of the dark, is not that uncommon.
This song describes the anxiety and fear that comes when "the light starts to change" and the darkness deepens, whether you feel like someone (or something) might be following you down a dark street or hiding at night in the corner of your bedroom.
Bottom line
Music may have a positive effect on your mood, but it will not eliminate the underlying causes of anxiety.
If you are having trouble coping with anxiety symptoms on your own, a qualified mental health professional can provide more information about possible triggers and help you learn new ways to manage your anxiety.

Alarm! Anxiety! Too many DJs!
Alert! Anxiety! Too many DJs!
I imagined myself for a long time as an artist of a star role,
And often at night I dreamed of going on tour.
I knew a DJ cult in the country, I decided what they were afraid of,
I took out turntables, ears, a remote control, and began to study.
Alert! Anxiety! Too many DJs!
At the club of each they crowd at the threshold!
I bought a vinyl for everything scored, but the basics of the summary,
Andryukha quickly explained to me over a bottle of vodka.
I stood playing for a week, I tried for a week!
Didn't drink, didn't eat, didn't blow, didn't sleep, but trained!
Now ready to play already, steel pipes are burning!
And in an unreal courage, I began to call the clubs!
Alert! Anxiety! Too many DJs!
And in order to move upstairs, you need to butt your horn!
In the first ten places they sent me at all,
And in the rest they answered me with a price and rudeness!
We don't have any free seats, residents are playing,
They absolutely don't need competitors on the stage!
Alert! Anxiety! Too many DJs!
There are so many of them in Moscow, they say that there are traffic jams!
The agency told me that (*;? overloaded,
And that they don't need a DJ like me.
Alarm! Alarm! Too many DJs!
But here one piece of advice was given to me by our lighter Seryoga!
He said to me, listen brother, do not be afraid, you are nimble,
When the front door is closed, look for where it will be black.
After all, if you just play like that, you won't get out of the mud,
You have to understand a smart thing, everything is decided by connections here.
Alert! Anxiety! Too many DJs!
Oh, how difficult you are, the road to fame!
TREEEVOGAAAA!
THREEWOOOOGAAA!
TOO MUCH DJS!
Alert! Anxiety! Too many DJs!
Alert! Anxiety! Too many DJs!
Alert! Anxiety! Too many DJs!
Alert! Anxiety! Too many DJs!
I wove intrigues, bribed, strove for my dream,
I slept with the headmistress, but I achieved my goal!
And finally, my finest hour, standing at the console in the club!
I stand now in profile, now in full phase, winking at Luba!
I played my first set, there was a full club of people,
There is no hope for a new set, the second in half a year!
I learned about the DJ world insidious moments,
How competitors denigrate DJs behind their backs,
I sent out promo mixes, I kept thinking about the contract,
I got everyone sick of the mailing list, got banned for promo DJs,
I got all my friends on Facebook and VKontakte!
Alert! Anxiety! Too many DJs!
Well, I did not expect such an epilogue!
Now I walk like in a dream, faith is killed in me,
In short, what the hell is this DJ career for me.
