favorite lyric LINES in a song

That is one good album (nobody calls them albums anymore though). You gots good taste lady.

 

Hold On
I'm feeling like I'm headed for a
Breakdown
I don't know why

I'm not crazy I'm just a little unwell
I know right now you can't tell
But stay awhile and maybe then you'll see
A different side of me
I'm not crazy I'm just a little impaired
I know right now you don't care
But soon enought you're gonna think of me
And how I used to be


'Unwell' -- Matchbox 20

 

I can't believe MatchboxTwenty lyrics are on the same pages with some of these other artists. :shudders:

I know I'm a complete snob when it comes to music, but some of that stuff is just garbage. It pains me that people put stock in it. Even the Korn lyrics are better than that, and they're awful too.

Lexy & Kitten - you both seem to be big Beatles fans (very cool - I love them too). Have either of you heard Elliott SMith's version of Because? It's the credits song for American Beauty if you own that movie. I like the original a lot, but his aint bad either.

 

thanx, hardharry. i think we are all from that era, that is why. the fav four rocks! ask reb. he knows.

nope. havent heard smith, but now that you mentioned it, yeah. i wondered about who did that...i did see american beauty.

 

Don't talk of words that never were
The end is all that's ever true
There's nothing you can ever say
Nothing you can ever do...

Still every night I burn
Every night I scream your name

The Cure - "Burn"



And when the day arrives
I'll become the sky
And I'll become the sea

And the sea will come to kiss me
For I am going
Home

Nothing can stop me now

NIN - "La Mer"



If she says come inside, I'll come inside for her
If she says give it all, i'll give everything to her
I am justified
I am purified
I am sanctified
inside you...

NIN - "Sanctified"




Fuck the middle east
There's too many problems
Just kill them all and have a ball
And end thier fucking crisis

S.O.D. - "Fuck the Middle East"

 

"How can I find hope in dying, with promises unseen..."
MercyMe -- Crazy

 

"I love you more than the sun and the stars that I taught how to shine
you are mine and you shine for Me, too.
I love you yesterday and today and tomorrow
I'll say it again and again and again
I love you more."
Matthew West -- More

My girlfriend loves TA. She has some intersting lyrics to say the least.
