Favourite line in the song?

[jordanisonfire]

Instead of just posting what song you're listening to, how's about we put our favourite line of the song there?

"We all feed on tragedy, it's like blood to a vampire"
Vicarious - Tool

To me, that's very beautiful, tragic and true in itself.

[Alex]

"Finality waits outside, Weeping in perplexity's arms, carressing our smiles inside." - System of a Down - Thetawaves

[Rouge]

"I wanna sunburn, just to know I'm alive"
Angels on the Moon by Thriving Ivory

I like it because it's simple, but . . . I like it because. . . because I just like it.

[appleofmyeye]

And I was off to old Dakota where a genocide sleeps
In the black hills, the bad lands, the calloused east
I buried my ballast, I made my peace
Heard four winds leveling the pines

Four Winds
Bright Eyes

I guess it's the most powerful line in the songs, and I like the song in particular because it is like poetry.

[appleofmyeye]

This battered room I've seen before
The broken bones they heal no more, no more
With my last breath I'm choking
Will this ever end I'm hoping
My world is over one more time

Tears Don't Fall
Bullet for My Valentine

Dunno why I like it so much, it's kinda morbid but it's interesting.

(Sorry for the double post btw.)

"You can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes
You might find...
You get what you need!"

You can't always get what you want
Rolling Stones

I love that song because it's true. Although I perfer the cover that Band From TV did. Since my acting God, Hugh Laurie, sang lead vocals and played the keyboard.

[Bowie20049]

"Let me see what spring is like on Jupiter and Mars." -Fly Me to the Moon

[Nanyoky]

"I will let you down, I will make you hurt."
Hurt, NIN
I don't know how to explain it, but even though my bro is the big NIN fan, I have to sit in awe at Trent's lyrical abilities. *shrug* i don't know how to say it, but they're simple words put into simple phrases, but somehow they convey a feeling and a situation that is really vivid in the mind.

[Rouge]

"Withering away, A shrinking violet dies,
so full of life, these lights have dried me out
Into the sea, I needed a drink,
I never thought this would consume me whole."

Lead Sails and a Paper Anchor -- Atreyu

I've always liked this line, just for the uncommon, but interesting lyric for this song that's [I think] about suicide. d:

[Jessica]

That's actually a Johnny Cash cover..

"Hey baby what'cha cookin' I'm really really good lookin"

Because my ego is that big.

Brokencyde for the win.

"And all the girlies say I'm pretty fly for a white guy."
Pretty Fly - The Offspring

That's probably one of my favourite lines in a song EVER. xD

[appleofmyeye]

I'm pretty sure my favorite is "He's cruising in his Pinto, he sees homies as he pass, but if he looks twice they gonna KICK HIS LILY ASS!" :D.

[jordanisonfire]

One of my best friends is half-Thai and he says, "And all the girlies say I'm pretty fly for a Thai guy", which sounds way cooler. xD

[littledreamer!]

The only line of a rap song I can think of is: "Get on your knees...". And that is from the re-done version of Lollipop, original by Lil Wyane, remake be Framing Henley. You should look it up!

[Nanyoky]

That's actually a Johnny Cash cover..
((Actually it was originally Reznor's. Crazy huh? Cash redid it way late in his life. But i still tend to prefer the Johnny Cash version most days, i have to admit.))
"And if I'm flying solo, at least I'm flying free
To those who ground me, take a message back from me
Tell them how I'm defying gravity"
-Defying Gravity, Wicked
I'm a little bit of a sucker for musical theater, and I just saw this when I was on spring break in NYC, making me fall in love with the show even more than I was before. It's a great song and I've always loved the cheesy cliche defiance stories. XD But they're still cool lyrics, especially for a musical.

[appleofmyeye]

*pukes on rap*

I love Wicked ^^. I think the greatest experience of my life.

For you I'll break tonight in fifty little pieces and I'll keep them in my pocket till the day I'm confident my warmth can numb your pain.

Promise
Alex Kaneko

I know he's a total unknown artist but I love his songs. I really just like this because it's pretty ^^.

really love the metaphor, great way to express the idea of permanence.

[GeorgeMichael]

I love Wicked ^^. I think the greatest experience of my life.



I could pick a lot of quotes from Wicked to be my favorite :P

"I remind them on their own we have to think of celebrated heads of state or especially great communicators, did they have brains of knowledge? Don't make me laugh, they were popular!"
Popular - Wicked. I love it :)



but as for another song I would say...

"This love is difficult, but it's real" ... ... Love Story :P I know... it's personal though!!! :)

[appleofmyeye]

Man, I don't listen to Taylor Swift. Whatever though, you're choice.

"On the city streets
The people look the same
And I can see your face
And I can hear your name."

Your Sword Versus My Dagger
Silverstien

[littledreamer!]

okay, so a not-rap song...
"If I cut you down to a thing I can use
I fear there will be nothing good left of you!"
Lose control
Evanescance
ps: I love Amy Lee. She can WAIL!

"it's you that I adore/you'll always be my whore"
ava adore, smashing pumpkins.

Romantic. straight up. >.<

[Rouge]

My signature. It's "Runaway" by Thriving Ivory. I absolutely adore those lyrics. :love:

[Midnight_Moon]

"This love is difficult, but it's real" ... ... Love Story :P I know... it's personal though!!! :)

LOL! I love that line too!!!!! But I really like:
Got the radio on, my old blue jeans
And I'm wearing my heart on my sleeve
Feeling lucky today, got the sunshine
Could you tell me what more do I need
And tomorrow's just a mystery, oh yeah
But that's ok
from: A Place in this World by Taylor Swift

"Mark has got his work
They say Mark lives for his work
And Mark's in love with his work

"I'm just a little girl lost in the moment, I'm so scared but I don't show it, I can't figure it out, it's bringing me down i know, I've got to let it go..."

Lenka-The show

So, so true. It is me, but in lyrics!

[miss_smiley]

N'aw! I love that song! ^_*

"And then that word grew louder and louder,
'til it became a battle cry.
I'll come back when you call me.
No need to say 'goodbye'."
- The Call, Regina Spektor.

"She's been staring down the demon
who's been screaming she's just another so-and-so.
Just another so-and-so.
You are golden.
You are golden, child.
You are golden.
Don't let go. Don't let go tonight."
- Golden, by Switchfoot. ^_*

"Love will make you drink and gamble
Make you stay out all night long
Love will make you do things
That you know is wrong"
- Billie Holiday: Fine and Mellow

[miss_smiley]

"Who was it that lead you on that makes you want to hurt me so?
Who are you trying to forget who forgot you long ago?"
...
You make breaking hearts look so easy,
Seems like you've done this before."

"Breaking" by Anberlin. ^^

[gogoejoe]

Tell me what you want from here
Something that were like those years
Sick of all the insincere
So I’m gonna give all my secrets away
This time, don’t need another perfect line
Don’t care if critics never jump in line
I’m gonna give all my secrets away
