What's your favorite song lyric?

<p>"I don't care if it hurts, I wanna have control
I want a perfect body, I want a perfect soul
I want you to notice, when I'm not around
You're so ****in special
I wish I was special"</p>

<p>-Radiohead - Creep</p>

<p>nobody likes music?</p>

<p>Hard one. A few top ones:</p>

<p>John Lennon - Bloody Sunday
“Well, it’s always bloody Sunday
In the concentration camps
Keep Falls Road free forever
From the bloody English hands
Repatriate to Britain
All of you who call it home
Leave Ireland to the Irish
Not for London or for Rome!”</p>

<p>Eddie Vedder - Society
“Oh it’s a mystery to me.
We have a greed, with which we have agreed…
and you think you have to want more than you need…
until you have it all, you won’t be free.”</p>

<p>Bobby Sands - Weeping Winds (a poem, adapted to a song by fellow political prisoners)
“Oh! whistling winds why do you weep
When roaming free you are,
Oh! is it that your poor heart’s broke
And scattered off afar?
Or is it that you bear the cries
Of people born unfree,
Who like your way have no control
Or sovereign destiny?”</p>

<p>i have several.</p>

<p>“The real me is a Southern girl with her Levi’s on and an open heart. I wish I could save the world like I was Supergirl. The real me used to laugh all night, lying in the grass just talking ‘bout love. But lately I’ve been jaded, life go so complicated. But with you, I can let my hair down. I can say anything crazy and know you’ll catch me before I hit the ground. With nothing but a t-shirt on, I’ve never felt so beautiful, baby, as I do now that I’m with you.” –jessica simpson</p>

<p>“With life we never know when we’re coming up to the end of the road. So what do we do then, with tragedy around the bend? We live, we love, we forgive and never give up, cause the days we are given are gifts from above.” –superchick</p>

<p>"Dear Mom and Dad, please send money, I’m so broke that it ain’t funny. I don’t need much, just enough to get me through. Please don’t worry 'cause I’m all right, I’m playin’ here at the bar tonight. This time, I’m gonna make our dreams come true. Well, I love you more than anything in the world…Love, your baby girl. I know that I’m on my way. And I know it’s worth all the dues I pay, when I can write to you and say…Dear Mom and Dad, I’ll send money. I’m so rich that it ain’t funny. It oughtta be more than enough to get you through and please don’t worry 'cause I’m all right, I’m stayin’ here at the Ritz tonight. Whaddya know, we made our dreams come true. I still love you more than anything in the world…Love, your baby girl.” –sugarland</p>

<p>“Son, what does it profit a man to gain the whole world and lose his soul? I want out, but it’s hard. I need answers, momma. Ever since this money came it’s been nothing but stress. Sometimes I wish I could trade in my success. Hmm I wonder how my friends would treat me now if I wasn’t iced up with a Bentley and a house. Ya’ll look at me and say boy, you’ve been blessed. But ya’ll don’t see the inside of my unhappiness…Voices in my head tell me to come to church, saying the Lord is the only way for you to stop the hurt. Dreaming of windows black tinted like a Hurst, when waking up to life sometimes seems worst. And all I ever wanted is to be a better man.” –r. Kelly </p>

<p>“I ain’t here to argue about his facial features, or here to convert atheists into believers. I’m just trying to say the way that school needs teachers, the way Kathie Lee needed Regis, that’s the way I need Jesus. So here goes my single, the radio needs this. They say you can rap about anything except for Jesus…that means guns, sex, lies, video tapes…but if I talk about God my record won’t get played huh?” –kanye west</p>

<p>the unforgiven III</p>

<p>Funnily enough I have a quotes page saved on wordpad…a partial list of my possible favorites:</p>

<p>It stung like a violent wind that our memories depend on a faulty camera in our minds

  • Death Cab for Cutie (What Sarah Said)</p>

<p>Just 'cause you feel it doesn’t mean it’s there

  • Radiohead (There There)</p>

<p>My office glows all night long, it’s a nuclear show and the stars are gone - Stars (Elevator Love Letter)</p>

<p>You are my centre when I spin away, out of control on videotape - Radiohead (Videotape)</p>

<p>I’m not afraid of anything; I just need to know that I can breathe

  • Avril Lavigne (How Does It Feel)</p>

<p>We all have a sickness that cleverly attaches, and multiplies no matter how we try - Incubus (Dig)</p>

<p>All the lonely people–where do they all come from?

  • The Beatles (Eleanor Rigby)</p>

<p>I can’t be tamed, I can’t be tamed, I can’t be blamed - Miley Cyrus (I Can’t Be Tamed)</p>

<p>One of these is not like the other</p>

<p>I think my favorite song quote right now is
“I’d sing you a song, but they blew it away”
Its from a Kings of Leon song named “California Waiting”</p>

<p>I also love this one
“Better make sure you’re looking closely, before you fall into your swoon”
From the song “There’s No Secrets This Year” by Silversun Pickups</p>

<p>I guess the lyrics themselves aren’t that great, I guess its one of those you have to listen to the song to get the awesomeness of the lyrics situation. :)</p>

<p>Sitting in an English garden waiting for the sun. If the sun don’t come you get a tan from standing in the English rain. - The Beatles (I Am the Walrus)</p>

<p>My red is so confident he flashes trophies of war
And ribbons of euphoria.
Orange is young, full of daring but very unsteady for the first go 'round.
My yellow in this case is no so mellow.
In fact I’m trying to say it’s frightened like me.

  • Jimi Hendrix (Bold as Love)</p>

<p>My Current one(s)(Change Constantly):</p>

<p>We gon’ make this ***** light up - Drake same song
cause I’m a star, no spangled banner - Drake same song
I just run the town, I don’t do too much jogging - Jay-Z in Drake’s Light Up</p>

<p>I have so many! but on the top of my head:</p>

<p>**I see no changes. All I see is racist faces.
Misplaced hate makes disgrace for races we under.
I wonder what it takes to make this one better place…
let’s erase the wasted.
Take the evil out the people, they’ll be acting right.
‘Cause mo’ black than white is smokin’ crack tonight.
And only time we chill is when we kill each other.
It takes skill to be real, time to heal each other.
And although it seems heaven sent,
we ain’t ready to see a black President, uhh. <<<<-----wish he was still here to witness this :frowning:
It ain’t a secret don’t conceal the fact…
the penitentiary’s packed, and it’s filled with blacks.
But some things will never change.
Try to show another way, but they stayin’ in the dope game.
Now tell me what’s a mother to do?
Bein’ real don’t appeal to the brother in you.
You gotta operate the easy way.
“I made a G today” But you made it in a sleazy way.
Sellin’ crack to the kids. “I gotta get paid,”
Well hey, well that’s the way it is. **</p>

<p>Changes-Tupac</p>

<p>I pretty much like all of the lyrics in the song so I just picked that part.</p>

<p>HAPPY BIRTHDAY TUPAC!!! haha. :)</p>

<p>currently:
Hope dangles on a string
Like slow spinning redemption
Winding in and winding out
The shine of it has caught my eye
And roped me in
So mesmerizing, so hypnotizing
I am captivated
I am Vindicated
I am selfish
I am wrong
I am right
I swear I’m right
I swear I knew it all along
And I am flawed
But I am cleaning up so well
I am seeing in me now the things you swore you saw yourself
So clear
Like the diamond in your ring
Cut to mirror your intentions
Oversized and overwhelmed
The shine of which has caught my eye
And rendered me so isolated, so motivated
So turn
Up the corners of your lips
Part them and feel my finger tips
Trace the moment, fall forever
Defense is paper thin
Just one touch and I’d be in
Too deep now to ever swim against the current
So let me slip away
So let me slip against the current
So let me slip away
-Vindicated by Dashboard Confessional</p>

<p>Anyone here listen to Tool?
I like all their lyrics.</p>

<p>“No, I’m not afraid. At least, not to die: I’m afraid to live and not remember why.”</p>

<p>~Lapse, by Envy on the Coast</p>

<p>

Lol, I love that line.</p>

<p>I’m not sure about my favorite, but I really like this one:</p>

<p>“When my fist clenches, crack it open
Before I use it and lose my cool
When I smile, tell me some bad news
Before I laugh and act like a fool”</p>

<p>-Behind Blue Eyes, The Who</p>

<p>Here are a few of my favorite parts from my anthem, 32 Flavors by Ani DiFranco</p>

<p>Squint your eyes and look closer
I’m not between you and your ambition
I am a poster girl with no poster
I am 32 flavors and then some</p>

<p>And I’m beyond your peripheral vision
so you might want to turn your heard
'cause someday you are going to get hungry
and eat most of the words you just said</p>

<p>…
…</p>

<p>God help you if you are an ugly girl
'course too pretty is also your doom
'cause everyone harbors a secret hatred
for the prettiest girl in the room</p>

<p>And God help you if you are a phoenix
and you dare to rise up from the ash
a thousand eyes will smolder with jealousy as
you are just flying past</p>

<p>…
…</p>

<p>And I’ll never try to give my life meaning
by demeaning you</p>

<p>And this is from another great Ani DiFranco song, also known as ***** You:</p>

<p>“You look like a photograph of yourself taken from far, far away.”</p>

<p>Search for “Jizz in my pants” ;)</p>

<p>Because there’s beauty in the breakdown</p>

<p>~“Let Go”, Frou Frou</p>

<p>Makes me feel breathless every time I hear it.</p>
