Favourite line from a song?
I searched but didn't find a thread like this, so sorry if there is one.
I shall begin: "You sit in circles with your friends, Pontificating to each other, waiting for that one moment of self-aggrandising glory in which you hog the intellectual spotlight, Holding dominion over the entire pointless conversation--oh, we're not worthy" -Say Anything ("Admit It") or "Immerse your soul in love" -Radiohead ("Street Spirit") |
I take a look in your eyes, I don't like what I see
You lived your life as a fake and I'm as real as can be I lived my life and faced my own realities" As real As It Gets - Sworn Enemy. Not really my favorite lyrics but I like them :3 It's hard to pick my favorite because there's so many I think are great. |
" Darkness is a mystery of curves and lines " - The spoken word - AFI. I love that line (and song) so much I had it tattooed from elbow to wrist on my inner left forearm.
|
"Skwisgaar Skwigelf, taller than a tree.
Toki Wartooth, not a bumblebee. William Murderface, Murderface, Murderface. Pickles, the drummer, doodily doo. (Ding-dong, doodily, doodily, doo.) Nathan Explosion." Dethklok rules :D |
Everlong - Foo Fighters
Breathe out so I could breathe you in Hold you in And now, I know you've always been Out of your head, out of my head I sang And I wonder when I sing along with you If everything could ever feel this real forever If anything could ever be this good again The only thing I'll ever ask of you You've got to promise not to stop when I say when She sang Ok...so it's several lines. ;) That or Figurative Theatre - Christian Death Their razor sharp tongues invite to relax As they slip the skin of your eyelids back Invasive spectators get into the act With roses and candles, silver knives and spoons |
Sixty Seconds, One hundred murders
The bill of rights is a bill of sale What will you do when the war is over? What will you do when your system fails? - All Hope is Gone by Slipknot. |

Ou... This is gonna take a while...
Kamelot - On the coldest winter night "i am breathless need i say How could you find me here? You of all have crossed my way Unexpectedly... From where?" I just think it's so well written Anathema - one last goodbye "in my dreams I can see you I can tell you How i feel In my dreams i can hold you and it feels so real I still feel your pain, and somehow i knew you could never... Never stay And somehow i knew you would leave me" Pink - coversations with my 13 year old self "the pain you feel is real, you're not asleep but it's a nightmare... But you can wake up anytime" In Flames "Neo-wolf but older again, than the Lupus itself Linked its fur to the gyroscope of time" In Flames - Moonshield "Naked and dying under worlds of silent stone Reaching for the moonshield that once upon us shone" In Flames - Reroute to remain "for years we wandered these circles Hold on to whatever lie gets us through" In Flames - dawn of a new day "Against the grain Against the odds I'll rise and i won't trip again The dawn of a new day Never looked as good as this" Ashley parker angel (i hate him But i love this song) - shades of blue "With eyes wide open The sky is always a thousand shades of blue Probably broken, lost and lonely We're all just shades of you" My dying bride - she is the dark "She is the dark, the nightmares you hide, the pain you feel, the suffering inside Though she was like you, through her dark past But now, the conqueror Her choirs vast Oh, please forgive her As mankind dies, as angels weep, and heaven cries" My mood can get really morbid sometimes =P |
There really are way too many.
In the Heart of the Wood by Current 93 "And I wait for another Revolution or revelation It doesn't too much matter If I see blood in wheals "All shall be well" she said But not for me Not for me The skeleton of the universe Barbed wire of blues and stars Remains unmoved When the mother ocean covers me I rush to drown With her breakers" Lucifer Over London by Current 93 "The twisted wings and cluds unfold And the greatgape of He who fell Makes darkened shadows over pointed spires Little children point and sing And little children run and dance Over there the setting sun Over there the setting sun" The Seven Seals Are Revealed At the End of Time as Seven Bows by Current 93 "One dips into a broken bowl full of sadness, The other into seven hundred children with horses' heads in different stages of decomposition. Across the Bloodbow a hundredthousand betrayers are nailed and lost. To the sound of the mewling of eight million cats all those who have betrayed humanity twist and turn. Step forward, if you can, Satan in many scumcoloured forms." Along with the rest of the song, for which the lyrics can be found here. Greensward Grey by Cinema Strange "There is blood on the hooves of the fawns on the Greensward Grey for they tread through the gristle on the lawn today Don't they see the roseate faces of my wives as they lay, disemboweled, on the Greensward Grey? This park is rank and slippery Skip and watch the kite tails, don't trip on the entrails White, and ligamental blossoms jutting from the earth... when have toadstools ever grown toenails? " And everything else Lucas Lanthier has ever written. Stand and Deliver by Adam and the Ants "I'm the dandy highwayman so sick of easy fashion The clumsy boots, peek-a-boo roots that people think so dashing So what's the point of robbery when nothing is worth taking? It's kind of tough to tell a scruff the big mistake he's making" There are a whole lot of Sex Gang Children lyrics I want to post, but as I went to double check that I had the words exactly right I found their website has been replaced with porn. Somehow I'm not surprised, but fuck that's annoying. |
I wonder how much pain it would take
To make you all believe Believe, believe, believe, believe In me I'm your god machine Fuck your god Acid Bath - God Machine |
"COWARD!!
spit i think i'll spit For all those girls, who speak contradiction The guy who crept through the shadows everyday to clutch his own conclusion Watch all the blood, as it drips from your veins you coward Godspeed, may your death come quickly "Kittie-spit "So, Im Nothing. You Took Something From Me, Now You've Dissapeared. You're Right Where I Want You. You Said You Wanted It, Alright. No! Its Not Alright No... Now I'm Something, And Your Head Is In My Closet. Dead Forever, They'll Never Search It... More from kittie.Don't rember the name of the song. "Run your mouth when I'm not around It's easy to achieve You cry to weak friends that sympathize Can you hear the violins playing your song? Those same friends tell me your every word " pantara-walk "You see us comin' And you all together run for cover We're takin over this town" pantara-cowboys from hell |
I have a few.. I'll add more later... (as I remember them lol)
First off though, this is from Iron Maiden's "The Clarivoyent": "There's a time to live and a time to die When it's time to meet the maker There's a time to live but isn't it strange That as soon as you're born you're dying" |
Not quite a favourite LINE, as such...
There's a devil waiting outside your door (How much longer?) There's a devil waiting outside your door It is bucking and braying and pawing at the floor And he's howling with pain and crawling up the walls There's a devil waiting outside your door He's weak with evil and broken by the world He's shouting your name and he's asking for more There's a devil waiting outside your door Loverman!

There's a devil crawling along your floor There's a devil crawling along your floor With a trembling heart, he's coming through your door With his straining sex in his jumping paw There's a devil crawling along your floor And he's old and he's stupid and he's hungry and he's sore And he's lame and he's blind and he's dirty and he's poor Give him more There's a devil crawling along your floor Loverman! Here I stand Forever, Amen Cause I am what I am what I am what I am Forgive me, baby My hands are tied And I got no choice No, I got no choice at all I'll say it again L is for LOVE, baby O is for O yes I do V is for VIRTUE, so I ain't gonna hurt you E is for EVEN if you want me to R is for RENDER unto me, baby M is for that which is MINE A is for ANY old how, darling N is for ANY old time I'll be your loverman!

There's a devil lying by your side You might think he's asleep but look at his eyes He wants you, baby, to be his bride There's a devil lying by your side |
"As in the life of rain
You're only alive when you're falling The coldest chill In the emptiness of reason You brought it upon yourself It's slow but final With nothing to gain You brought it upon yourself It's slow but final It begins today" - Dark Tranquillity's A Closer End |
"There are lessons that sadness
can only teach there are things that we must learn now I won't die if you walk away but I may not live" Walk Away - Crüxshadows |
When you kiss me
Do you still taste her? Are you thinking of, are you thinking of me? With your lips pressed tightly up against his skin Does your body still scream my name? Does your body still scream my name? Hold your breath to keep it Trapped with secrets 'Til you're turning cold blue with guilt Still, no blood is spilled had I seen the plot twist coming Would I had checked out the book Even if I was dead You would never be off the fucking hook ~Atreyu's Our Sick Story |
I'm all alone, I smoke my friends down to the filter
But I feel much cleaner after it rains - Tom Waits, Little Drop Of Poison |
This is from one of my all time favourite songs and I also use the chorus to this song as my signiature !!!.
Sabbat `Horned Is The Hunter` This is What hope for a king with no kingdom to rule? now his children desert him - regard him a fool, and are bonded to progress - the plough and the scythe - that lay waste and leave barren what beauty survives though legends of power and glory suffice - for these 'latter-day-heroes' who live out their lives, chained by conformity shackled by greed - and told to believe they don't want to be freed. I`ll post the song in its entirety on the lyrics thread !!!. :) |
You want me?
F***ing come and find me. I'll be waiting With a gun and a pack of sandwiches. Radiohead - Talk Show Host One of my most favorite songs. |

She's my teenage baby and she turns me on
I'd like to make her do a nasty on the White House lawn Brown Shoes Don't Make It, Frank Zappa Why spend your leisure bereft of pleasure amassing treasure - why scrape and save? Why look so canny at ev'ry penny? You'll take no money into the grave. Lanlord and gentry with all your plenty must still go empty where'er they're bound; So to me thinkin' we'd best be drinkin', our glasses clinkin' another round. Preab Son Ol, The Dubliners They stay with the masses Don't take any chances End up emptying ashtrays But I push, push, push, push Throw the bones and the poison dice No time for small moralists But I am the dice man Balls-on-the-line man Do you take a chance, baby? The Fall, Dice Man Well they call me William The Pleaser I sold opium, fireworks and lead Now I'm telling my troubles to strangers When the shadows get long I'll be dead Now her hair was as black as a bucket of tar Skin was as white as a cuttlefish bone I left Texas to follow Lucinda Now I'll never see heaven or home Tom Waits, Lucinda And finally, a fairly large excerpt from one of my favourite songs ever: McCormack and Richard Tauber are singing by the bed There's a glass of punch below your feet and an angel at your head There's devils on each side of you with bottles in their hands You need one more drop of poison and you'll dream of foreign lands When you pissed yourself in Frankfurt and got syph down in Cologne And you heard the rattling death trains as you lay there all alone Frank Ryan brought you whiskey in a brothel in Madrid And you decked some fucking blackshirt who was cursing all the Yids At the sick bed of Cuchulainn, we'll kneel and say a prayer When the ghosts are rattling at the door and the devil's in the chair. Sickbed of Cuchulainn, The Pogues |
The Pogues! :D
Why do you have such great taste in everything? |
