This song comes to mind...
It goes...
"If I lay here/
If I just lay here?
Would you lie with me
and just forget the world/ (forget who sings it though)
peace

First one I thought of is Billy Joel's "The Stranger". Great Song! Here are the lyrics:
Well we all have a face
That we hide away forever
And we take them out and show ourselves
When everyone has gone
Some are satin some are steel
Some are silk and some are leather
They're the faces of the stranger
But we love to try them on
Well, we all fall in love
But we disregard the danger
Though we share so many secrets
There are some we never tell
Why were you so surprised
That you never saw the stranger
Did you ever let your lover see
The stranger in yourself?
Don't be afraid to try again
Everyone goes south
Every now and then
You've done it, why can't someone else?
You should know by now
You've been there yourself
Once I used to believe
I was such a great romancer
Then I came home to a woman
That I could not recognize
When I pressed her for a reason
She refused to even answer
It was then I felt the stranger
Kick me right between the eyes
Well, we all fall in love
But we disregard the danger
Though we share so many secrets
There are some we never tell
Why were you so surprised
That you never saw the stranger
Did you ever let your lover see
The stranger in yourself?
Don't be afraid to try again
Everyone goes south
Every now and then
You've done it why can't someone else?
You should know by now
You've been there yourself
You may never understand
How the stranger is inspired
But he isn't always evil
And he isn't always wrong
Though you drown in good intentions
You will never quench the fire
You'll give in to your desire
When the stranger comes along

The Kill by 30 Seconds To Mars
people think the song is about a girl, but it's about your true self.. if you don't believe search 'making of the kill' on youtube.com

maybe you might wanna think about Rollins Band: Volume 4, Low Self Opinion, or Disconnect.
Especially Low Self Opinion and Disconnect but they're all great.

I don't right off hand but I would check Evanescence songs. She's generally deep on a lot of things.

"Who is that girl I see, starring straight back at me. Why is my reflection someone I don't know. Must I pretend that I'm someone else for all times. When will my reflection show who I am inside...."
