[Music] Favourite Lyrics!

[Revelations]

Felt the need for a Lyrics thread! (Yay for a quoting galore... if you have to; try to only link a small part of the song.. don't want to mouse-scroll excessively)


Wondering, what song has lyrics that actually means something to you? And if you want to answer - why?

For me, it would be Pink Floyd's album Animals.. one of the best albums ever written lyrics-wise. Backs up my misanthropic view on humanity. Favourite track; Dogs. It's about greed, being a businessman and a dog (being the pawns of those above them... see Pigs.) Working hard to gain more and more money... following orders.. only to die lonely.

"The lyrics are so haunting of what is occuring in todays world. How ironic that 30 years later these words ring so much truer than ever."

[Zanter]

John Butler Trio - Ocean.

[Glokkpod]

Saetia - One Dying Wish

"Because it cuts so deep to see myself wishing upon melting stars.
I cut the chord, I finally give in."

When you try your best but you don't succeed
When you get what you want but not what you need

And the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you can't replace
When you love someone but it goes to waste
Could it be worse?

And high up above or down below
When you're too in love to let it go
But if you never try you'll never know

Maybe not the whole song but a line from Stone Temple Pilots' "Still Remains" gets me every time.
"If you should die before me ask if you can bring a friend."

[Hraklea]

Lovebites and Razorlines, from Glassjaw. It defines my high school =P.

Looking back into my diary, what makes me say those things?
What causes my laughter at another's disaster
It's the bastard in me

You fucking whore!

I know a girl who sells herself around
And I'm sure that one day she'll sign autographs in your town

[Deleted]

just something that gives me goosebumps everytime i hear it

from pearl jam - black

I know someday you'll have a beautiful life, I know you'll be a star
In somebody else's sky, but why, why, why
Can't it be, can't it be mine

[Shootmeagain]

Metallica - Shortest Straw
