Favourite lyric?

[STDiva]

Lots of worst lyrics, or gayest lyrics threads. People must like hating on shit instead of talking about stuff they love.

Anyway, post your favourite lyric(s). Favourite line from a favourite song, or a line you love from a song you hate. Don't post the entire song!!! A verse at most.

I'll start you idiots off.

Death Cab For Cutie - Tiny Vessels

So one last touch and then you'll go
And we'll pretend that it meant something so much more
But it was vile, and it was cheap
And you are beautiful but you don't mean a thing to me

Silverchair - Miss You Love

I love the way you love, but I hate the way I'm supposed to love you back

The Outfield - Your Love

I just wanna use your love, tonight! I don't wanna lose your love, tonight! Yeah!

I think I see a theme in the lyrics I like. Go figure.

Let's hear'em. What kind of lyrics are you a sucker for???

Mumford & sons - You liar

I know that things are broken
I know there’s too many words left unsaid
You say you have spoken, like the coward I am, I hang my head
You lay careless, your head on my chest
And don’t even look at me looking my best
And all these things I can’t describe, you would rather I didn’t try
But please, don’t cry you liar
Oh please, don’t cry you liar
Oh please, don’t cry you liar
Oh please, don’t cry you liar
Oh please, don’t cry you liar
And you lean in for your last kiss,
Who in this world can ask me to resist?
Your hands cold as they find my neck,
Oh this love I have found, I detest

This is an awesome idea for thread.. I'll probably post here frequently, I'm like a total lyric junkie lol
I pretty much love anything by Brand New & Unwritten Law but here's a few of my favorites

Me Vs Maradona Vs Elvis--Brand new

I've got desperate desires and unadmirable plans
My tongue will taste of gin and malicious intent
Bring you back to the bar
Get you out of the cold
A sober, straight face gets you out of your clothes
And they're scared that we know
All the crimes they'll commit
Who they'll kiss before they get home

Sic Transit Gloria--Brand New

He is the lamb, she is the slaughter.
She's moving way too fast and all he wanted was to hold her.
Nothing that he tells her is really having an effect.
He whispers that he loves her,
but she's probably only looking for SSS
So much more than he could ever give.
A life free of lies and a meaningful relationship.
He keeps his hands pinned down at his sides.
He waits for it to end
and for the aching in his guts to subside.

She Says--Unwritten Law

Father I've sinned
over and over and over and over again
I'm sorry my friends
That I'm such a mess
I'm doing the best I can
She says "where ya goin? where ya been?"
She says "I don't want you hanging out with them"
She leaves like she's never coming back again on and on...
it goes on and on yeahhh

Seventy Times Seven--Brand New

And is that what you call tact?
You're as subtle as a brick in the small of my back.
So let's end this call, and end this conversation.
and is that what you call a getaway?
well tell me what you got away with.
cause you left the frays from the ties you severed
when you say best friends means friends forever

Up All Night--Unwritten Law

And were alright, we're up all night
To see the sun come up again now
Just one more time, no reason why
To see the sun come up again.
So lets smoke some cigarettes
And catch up on thee back porch
Fire up another roach
We don't need a rest, it's just a test
And as the world spins we'll watch it with a grin
And look in as the day begins

 

[grower_boy]

This is one of the best thread ideas ever.

Creed - One

We may rise and fall, but in the end we meet our fate together

Alice in Chains - Nutshell

We chase misprinted lies.
We face the path of time.
And yet I fight this battle alone.
No one to cry to; no place to come home.

Alter Bridge - Open Your Eyes

I love the way I feel today
But how I know the sun will fade
Darker days seem to be
What will always live in me, but still I run.

Made Season - River Of Deceit

The only direction we flow is down.

 

[STDiva]

I love Brand New!!

Degausser

Take me, take me back to your bed
I love you so much that it hurts my head
Say I don't mind you under my skin
I'll let the bad parts in, the bad parts in

 

[PirateKing]

Don't get me started, I've got about a million.

"Inside the museums infinity goes up on trial" - Bob Dylan, Visions of Johanna

 

[ThatRedWing]

Well this place is old
It feels just like a beat up truck
I turn the engine, but the engine doesn't turn
Well it smells of cheap wine & cigarettes
This place is always such a mess
Sometimes I think I'd like to watch it burn
I'm so alone, and I feel just like somebody else
Man, I ain't changed, but I know I ain't the same
But somewhere here in between the city walls of dyin' dreams
I think her death it must be killin' me

Wallflowers-One Headlight

Wallflowers-One Headlight

This song reminds me of my mom
Definitely one of my favorites.

 

[gunslingingbird]

Bück dich, befehl ich dir.
Wende dein antlitz ab vom mir.
Dein gesicht ist mir egal.
Bück dich!

- Ramms+ein "Bück Dich"

What can I say? A romantic song by a bunch of hopeless romantics.

 

[Rane1071]

For when Love is gone, there's always Justice, .. and when Justice is gone, there's always Force, .. and when Force is gone, there's always Mum. Hi Mum. - "O Superman - Laurie Anderson".

 

[BAYAMONXXX]

2Pac: I Don't Give A Fuck

Fuck you to all you redneck prejudice motherfuckers. and fuck y'all punk gay sensitive little dick bastards!

 

[YumiYumi_1988]

I got nines in the bedroom, glocks in the kitchen
A shotty by the shower if you wanna shoot me while I'm shittin

-Notorious B.I.G.

 

[Shifty]

I get up around seven
Get outta bed around nine
And I don't worry about nothin' no
'Cause worryin's a waste of my time

 

[ThatRedWing]

He's a poet, he's a picker--
He's a prophet, he's a pusher--
He's a pilgrim and a preacher, and a problem when he's stoned--
He's a walkin' contradiction, partly truth and partly fiction,
Takin' ev'ry wrong direction on his lonely way back home.

The Pilgrim: Chapter 33 - Kris Kristofferson

Jace Everett--Bad Things

When you came in the air went out
And all those shadows there filled up with doubt
I don't know who you think you are
But before the night is through
I wanna do bad things with you
I wanna do real bad things with you

Katie Melua--Closest Thing To Crazy

How can I think I'm standing strong,
Yet feel the air beneath my feet?
How can happiness feel so wrong?
How can misery feel so sweet?
How can you let me watch you sleep,
Then break my dreams the way you do?
How can I have got in so deep?
Why did I fall in love with you?

This is the closest thing to crazy I have ever been
Feeling twenty-two, acting seventeen,
This is the nearest thing to crazy I have ever known,
I was never crazy on my own…
And now I know that there's a link between the two,
Being close to craziness and being close to you.

 

[tiger1977]

Guns N' Roses It's So Easy
Ya get nothin' for nothin'
If that's what ya do
Turn around bitch I got a use for you
Besides you ain't got nothin' better to do
And I'm bored

Leonard Cohen (Jeff Beck version) Hallelujah
And maybe there's a God above
But all I've ever learned from love
Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew ya
Well it's not a cry that you hear at night
It's not somebody who's seen the light
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah

Jim Morrison Feast of Friends
They are waiting to take us intothe severed garden
Do you know how pale and wanton thrillful
comes death on a strange hour
unannounced, unplanned for,
like a scaring, over-friendly guest you've brought to bed
Death makes angels of us all and gives us wings
where we had shoulders smooth as raven's claws

Rolling Stones I Got the Blues
In the silk sheet of time,
I will find peace of mind
Love is a bed full of blues

 

[Spleen]

Come a little closer, honey, I won't bite ya

One more lager and I might learn to like ya

 

[Ace Bandage]

Death Cab For Cutie - Crooked Teeth

Cause at night the sun in retreat,
Made the skyline look like crooked teeth,
In the mouth of a man who was devouring, us both.

You're so cute when you're slurring your speech,
But they're closing the bar and they want us to leave.

And you can't find nothing at all,
If there was nothing there all along.
No you can't find nothing at all,
If there was nothing there all along.

 

[LukeEl]

Any song sung by King Crimson because they are more D&D then Led Zepplin.
