In the Garage By weezer All By Myself - ignore the histrionics of Celine Dion's version, and go for the original, by Eric Carmen.
Alone Again (Naturally) by 70's songwriter Gilbert O'Sullivan Hmm, right now the two that come to mind are about lonliness. Probably the most poetic ever is Percy Mayfield's "Send Someone To Love". The most anguished is Fenton Robinson's "Somebody Loan Me A Dime". Also throw BB King's "Three O'Clock In The Morning" in there, too.
For social rejection, sung in code, Ray Charles' version of "You Don't Know Me" rings true today.
