Here’s some of mine.
" I think God it’s moving his tongue, there’s no crowd on the streets and no sun, in my own summer"
“You and me baby ain’t nothing but mammals, so let’s do it like they do on the discovery channel”
“I felt the hate rise up in me, kneel down and clear the stone of leaves, i wandered out where you can’t see, inside my shell i wait and bleed”
"CUT MY LIFE INTO PIECES, THIS IS MY LAST RESORT, suffocation, no breathing, don’t give a fuck if i cut my arm bleeding! "
And one in Spanish
“No te puedo dejar de querer, nos hemos reido y llorado los 3, yo quiero darte mi alegria, mi guitarra, mis poesias, y solo se me ocurre amarte”
The songs are (in order) : My own summer by deftones, The bad touch by the bloodhound gang, Wait and bleed by slipknot, Last resort by papa roach, Y solo se me ocurre amarte by Alejandro Sánz.
“Son, always be a good boy, don’t ever play with guns, but I shot a man in Reno, just to watch him die.”
Folsom prison blues Johnny Cash
Johnny Cash has some amazing lyrics
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAR SKEEZIX.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU.deleted by creator
I hope it stays dark forever
I hope the worst isn’t over
And I hope you blink before I do
I hope I never get sober…
I am drowning
There is no sign of land
You are coming down with me
Hand in unlovable hand
And I hope you die
I hope we both dieMountain Goats right?

No, his mind is not for rent
To any god or government
Always hopeful yet discontent
He knows changes aren’t permanent
But change is
- Tom Sawyer by Rush
There are so many good Neil Peart lyrics it’s hard to choose a favourite.
This one is definitely in my top 5:
Subdivisions
In the high school halls
In the shopping malls
Conform or be cast out
Subdivisions
In the basement bars
In the backs of cars
Be cool or be cast out
Any escape might help to smooth
The unattractive truth
But the suburbs have no charms to soothe
The restless dreams of youth
And then one day you find ten years have got behind you No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun
Was a time when these lyrics would have been the top comment to this question. Now they linger at the bottom.
We who know must be getting fewer.
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way
And the band members were in their 20s when they wrote this song. Old souls.
“The way the trees look dead, reminds me that there’s more to life than living”
Bayside - A Synonym of Acquiesce
I love it when you call me senorita I wish I could pretend I didn’t need ya but every touch is o la la la
awesome song!
Why are you getting down voted?
I didn’t downvote and I actually enjoy the song, but that’s a pretty vapid lyric and I might imagine someone felt it wasn’t a serious suggestion - though not the only one. Perhaps they will chime in and resolve the mystery.
I grew up singing Pour Some Sugar On Me and Octopus’ Garden so I’m not one to judge.
Time is illmatic
Keep static like wool fabric
Pack a 4-matic to crack your whole cabbage
In the dark we’ll take off our clothes And there’ll be placing fingers Through the notches of your spine
–Neutral Milk Hotel, Two Headed Boy
In the aeroplane over the sea, what a fantastic album. It’s one of my favourites of all time.
And every breath that is in your lungs is a tiny little gift to me.
-The White Stripes
Well did you hear? There’s a natural order Those most deserving will end up with the most That the cream cannot help but always rise up to the top Well I say, “Shit floats” If you thought things had changed Friend, you’d better think again Bluntly put, in the fewest of words Cunts are still running the world
Jarvis Cocker - Running the world
There’s too many, but I won’t lie if I take any few lines from L. Cohen’s “The Future”:
"Your servant here, he has been told To say it clear, to say it cold It's over, it ain't going any further And now the wheels of heaven stop You feel the devil's riding crop Get ready for the future: It is murder"Destroyer is a band whose lyrics I consistently love
“She needs release, she needs to feel at ease with her father (pause) the fucking maniac.” (from European Oils)
“A snow angel’s a fucking idiot somebody made. A fucking idiot someone made in the snow” (from June)
“I piss on the floorboards, the whole world’s a stage” (from Eat The Wine, Drink The Bread)
And she walks along the edge
Of where the ocean meets the land
Just like she’s walking on a wire in the circus
