I can't help but think of the song "wicked game".

Therapy feels like some sort of wicked game where the client is left to feel so much while the therapist sits in their safe seat.

'I wanna fall asleep forever
I wanna learn to disappear
Can you take away the mess that's been building in my chest
Drowning out the song I used to hear?'

This lyric from the Strokes song Someday:

You say you wanna stay by my side.
Darlin' your head's not right.

I have a ton! I asked this question awhile back and got some great recommendations. Some highlights from my therapy playlist:

—“What do you hear in these sounds” Dar Williams. Only song I know directly about therapy. I love the line “oh how I loved everyone else when I finally had the chance to talk so much about myself.”

—“Details in the Fabric” by Jason Mraz. This is the most soothing song on the planet for me right now. I like the parts “deep breaths, help is on the way. Stay strong, I’m doing everything I can.” I listen to it on repeat when things get bad.

—“Porcelain” by Marianas Trench. Also another really soothing one for me when things get bad. There’s a line about thought you would have figured everything out by now that always hits home

—“I don’t have the answers” by We are the messengers. Someone on here suggested this when I asked the question last time. Really lovely song about not having the answers and figuring it out together

I also really like “My Interpretation”’ and “Happy Ending” by Mika, but those speak more to my own journey. “Happy Ending” is about therapy to me—I like the lines “This is the way you left me. No hope, no glory, no happy ending. This is the hardest story I’ve ever told.”

I love The hurt and the Healer by MercyMe. It is a Christian song and supposed to be about Christ.

However it reminds me of T because it is about asking why and sometimes all we can do is breath

For No. 3, “There’s Something About What Happens When We Talk” (Lucinda Williams).

The rest of them...”Let’s Call the Whole Thing Off.” (“You say tomato and I say tomahto...”)

'Just a little bit of your heart'- Ariana Grande
A bit cheesy and pop for my liking but I really like the lyrics. It's obviously not about therapy but it makes me think of how I just want a little piece of my T's heart. Don't need it all but a little piece would be nice

Hot Chelle Rae- Bleed
Again possibly not what the song is actually about but my interpretation of the lyrics are it's about struggling to say how you really feel and having to write in down on paper. Also worrying about how the other person (T) may leave before you get the chance to say all you want to say (heal)

Ellie Goulding- I know you care
Reminds me of knowing that deep down my T does care but I'm just unable to hold onto that.

James Arthur-Say you won't let go.
Hoping my T won't leave until I'm ready.

Imagine Dragons- Not Today
Again great song and love the lyrics
"It's gotta get easier and easier somehow
But not today, not today"

Oasis - Wonderwall

"And all the roads we have to walk are winding
And all the lights that lead us there are blinding
There are many things that I would like to say to you
But I don't know how

Because maybe
You're gonna be the one that saves me"

Thanks for this!

She Moves On by Paul Simon comes to mind since we just had our last session. Except it wasn't a break up, but still I am the one who moves on. (It helps that I feel so much connection to Carrie Fisher.)
