I have a hard time interpreting between artistic license and literal descriptions, so I try to remind myself that dissociation is a spectrum and not everything is strictly pathological. With that in mind, a lot of artists describe an 'alter ego' they have to assume on stage or around fans. This is one of those songs I relate to while keeping that notion in the forefront:
Harvey Dent by: Tech N9ne https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rODMWoGMRYs (NSFW)

This one though, I consider much more direct. I have no shame or doubt in relating this with the concept of splitting/dissociation
They Took a Vote and Said No by: Sunset Rubdown https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hkr8OfQNZB0

I know Blind Guardian did a song called "Another Stranger Me" based on DID. The video is a bit schlocky, but the lyrics are pretty righteous.

Disturbia by Rhianna
Monster by Eminem was already mentioned but I had to second it.
Everybody's Fool by Evanescence
Hello by Evanescence
I think it is safe to say we relate to most of Evanescence's Fallen Album.

stupidly made a new thread about this topic when this one was right here, oops ;;;

"excuse me" by nothing but thieves

My heart beats like yours does, hers does, her heart keeps good time, and everyday I mind the gap between you and me, here comes someone else to share the air we breathe.

"neighbour" by mother mother

I am your neighbor, I can see you, I got these blinds that I peek through, and when you're crying I see your tears fall down. They're making oceans that in I sink and drown.

"afraid" by the neighbourhood

When I wake up I’m afraid, somebody else might take my place, when I wake up I’m afraid, somebody else might end up being me. Keep on dreaming, don’t stop breathing, fight those demons. Sell your soul, not your whole self. If they see it when you’re sleeping, make them leave it, and I can’t even see if it’s all there anymore.

"how to disappear completely" by radiohead

I'm not here, this isn't happening. I'm not here, I'm not here. In a little while I'll be gone, the moment's already passed.

Not DID specially but

Objects in the rear view mirror by meatloaf. Because I feel like I can't escape the past a lot.

Let it go from frozen for this verse:

'The wind is howling like this swirling storm inside
Couldn't keep it in, heaven knows I've tried
Don't let them in, don't let them see
Be the good girl you always have to be
Conceal, don't feel, don't let them know
Well, now they know'

Which repeats in my head as:
Don't think, don't feel, don't let them know
Be the good girl you always have to be

Because basically that was how I lived my childhood.

"Corner" by Blue Stahli: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r1UexAuAODI

Waves, Mr Probz, current sounds track to my life...

My face above the water
My feet can't touch the ground,
Touch the ground, and it feels like
I can see the sands on the horizon
Every time you are not around

I'm slowly drifting away (drifting away)
Wave after wave, wave after wave
I'm slowly drifting (drifting away)
And it feels like I'm drowning
Pulling against the stream
Pulling against the stream

I wish I could make it easy
Easy to love me, love me
But still I reach
To find a way
I'm stuck here in between
I'm looking for the right words to say

I'm slowly drifting (drifting away)
Wave after wave, wave after wave
I'm slowly drifting (drifting away)
And it feels like I'm drowning
Pulling against the stream
Pulling against the stream

"Now the face that I see in my mirror
More and more is a stranger to me
More and more I can see there's a danger
In becoming what I never thought I'd be..."

Some Days are Diamonds (Some Days are Stones)
- John Denver

These lyrics are, we feel, a spooky accurate description of dissociation.

There’s a Finnish song that has words sounding so much like dissociation, I don’t know what else could they mean. Songs are bit like poems, they’re hard to translate, but I try to translate the meanings as well as I can. Song is by singer/song writer Sanni, and it’s called Jos mä oon oikee in Finnish. In English it’s

If I am real:

I’m living in my body as a tenant
Paying the apartment with food
Paint is falling off, walls are cracking
Who will repair?

When they ask from me on the streets
What year (is it), I’m not sure
Go ask from them who’ll know where are they coming from

If I am real
Why people walk thru me on the streets
If I am real
Why can’t I remember even my own name

I guess I’m breathing
Yeah

I’m chatting without knowing the words
My native language (sounds) like Hebrew
I’m waking up on the evening, falling in sleep on the morning
I’m living in a waken dream

I am alone, although subway is full of people
They’re looking thru me, although I’m getting hold of their hands

Ghosts don’t exist
Why so?

If I am real
Why people walk thru me on the streets
If I am real
Why can’t I remember even my own name

I guess I’m breathing

If I am real
Why mirror doesn’t reflect me anymore
If I am real
Why can’t I remember even my own name

I guess I’m breathing

Railwaystation on a monday rush
Everyone seems to hurry, have a direction
I’m outside although I’m standing inside
If I’m already at home, how can I be home sick


What does it mean, if you’re not part of the story
If you’re blowing to a window, but it doesn’t fog up
Is this town full of living deads
Or am I watching the picture from the other side

If I am real
Why people walk thru me on the streets
If I am real
Why can’t I even remember my own name

I guess I’m breathing

If I am real
Why mirror doesn’t reflect me anymore
If I am real
Why can’t I remember even my own name

I guess I’m breathing
