The fact that this was empty made me physically ill. So I'm stealing its proverbial virginity without its consent.
Who are some of your favorite bands? What are some of your favorite lines from their songs? One of my friends and I talk about songs and bands all the time, and what makes a band worthwhile and original. Most of the time, it has something to do with their lyrics or creativity or how willing they are to step out of their boundaries and try something totally different.
We were talking about our favorite lines in songs and trying to find the best song lyric ever written. We discovered, for us at least, it was impossible to narrow down. But we picked a lot of lyrics and narrowed them down. This was my list. It needs some work, but they are lines I truly adore and think are clever, or that I can relate to.
"Your eyes are dark in my starlight. I'm the last of my kind."
"It's an empty handed promise from my heart to my conscience."
"Ashamed of the way the songs and the words own the beating of our hearts."
"I'm suffocating the clock to keep you."
"I'm a loose bolt of a complete machine. What a match: I'm half-doomed and you're semi sweet."
"Somewhere weakness is my strength and I'll die searching for it."
"When we're this young we have nothing to lose: just a clock to beat and a hand to choose."
What are some of yours? Any lyric ever jump out and shock you? Share! |

Here are just a few of mine ^^
There are so many more haha.
"Restless people from the sick city, Burned their homes down to make the sky look pretty" -Sick City by Marilyn Manson
"Drove the children from their chores. Handcrafted housewives into whores. Fear of the beast is calling it near. Creating what we're hating, it's only fear that is here" -Wrapped in Plastic by Marilyn Manson
"Imitation's not flattery, so you're a pitiful theif." -Thingmaker by Marilyn Manson
"And I am the rumour on everyones lips, and I am the curse on your girlfriends hips. We are the different so we'll make a start. Tell all your friends and sound the alarm." -The Rumour by You Me At Six
"Take off your colours, who are you wearing them for? Tick off your lovers, all respect was left at the door. I had front row seats to you on your knees, it was everything I hoped it'd be." Take Off Your Colours by You Me At Six
"Well I sussed you good, you knew I would. Oh haven’t you heard you're just another mark on my shirt. Another night and another girl. Oh well I taste so good, you knew I would.." -Save it For the Bedroom by You Me At Six [/color] |

Mine are quite lovely... but not really.
Living is easy with eyes closed/Misunderstanding all you see // "Strawberry Fields Forever" the Beatles
I don't want to be just a footnote in someone else's happiness // "Headfirst Slide Into Cooperstown On A Bad Bet" Fall Out Boy
My heart is on my sleeve/I wear it like a bruise or black eye/My badge for weakness // "Sending Postcards from a Plane Crash" Fall Out Boy
If I regret all I've done I would be trapped inside that locket // "Punkb*tch" 3oh!3
To own a heart that's half yours and These bones are mere accessories // "Gift of Paralysis" Envy on the Coast
Insecurities/Are about as useful as trying/To put the pin back in the grenade // "Smile Lines" Incubus
-nods- That's that.
