Lemaitre - Splitting Colours

"Red, white and pitch black. Colours that I'll not get back."

 

Lemaitre - Excuse Me

"But excuse me princess, excuse me princess I ain't got time."

 

Biggie Smalls - Suicidal Thoughts

"She don't even love me like she did when I was younger,

 suckin' on her chest just to stop my fucking hunger.

 I wonder if I died, would tears come to her eyes?

 Forgive me for my disrespect, forgive me for my lies."

 

 (later on in the song)

 

 "You see its kinda like the crack did to Pookie, in New Jack

 Except when I cross over, there ain't no comin' back

 Should I die on the train track, like Remo in Beatstreet

 People at the funeral frontin' like they miss me."

 

Paradis - Je m'ennuie 

"Elle sortait le jour, je prefere la nuit. On se voyait le jour, du coup je m'ennuie."

 

 (English)

"She hang out the day, I prefer the night. We hang out the day, so I'm bored."

 

Flume - On Top feat. T.Shirt

"Drinks on chill, got drinks on chill

 Lights get dim and I think I will

 I work so hard that I think I will

 Yeah, had a long week, bitch, how you think I feel?

 History favors the bold, dawg

 Wrote something, make sure my story gets told

 Make sure our story gets told

 The night's forever young, it's us that gets old."

Lou Reed - Street Hassle.

"But you know people get all emotional

and sometimes, man, they just don't act rational you know,

 

they think they're just on TV"

 

(The verse above is so true.... below is a different verse that happens later in the same song.)

 

"You know, some people got no choice

and they can never find a voice

to talk with that they can even call their own

So the first thing that they see

that allows them the right to be

why they follow it, you know, it's called... bad luck."

[Mutemutt 773]

Jason Mraz - Geek in the Pink

She was starin' through the doorframe
And eyeing me down like already a bad boyfriend
Well she can get her toys outta the drawer then
Cause I ain't comin' home I don't need that attention, see

 

Hoodie Allen - All About It

I said I used to be the shy type

backpack on my back, on public transport sorta guy type

now I'm in the lime light

tryin to get my mind right

body clock is in the clouds so often, guess it's high time

Hoodie sing the line like 

 

The Delgados - The Light Before We Land

Before we let euphoria convince us we are free

remind us how we used to feel before when life was real

 

Streetlight Manifesto - The Hands that Thieve

And everyone will claim

that they knew from the beginning

that what they did was wrong

but they still just went on sinning

 

The sudden rush you feel 

when realizing everything you know

will fade away

It haunts you deep 

but you won't want to let it go

Some day we'll lose the war

but till then we will dream of winning

 

Jose the Bronx Rican- He Ain't a G

While he's spittin' treacle, we stay rico

That's right, chico, cash from here to Kakariko

We go from Dark World to ghettos and freak hos

While this evil pedo Lost Woods in keyholes

The throne is yours, but of course, it's only porcelain

Try to floss with too many flaws to fight wars

The line's crossed, get tossed right off your high horse

Gently with words, I don't even have to tri force

 

Edit: Whoa Whoa Whoa, almost forgot my absolute favorite line of all time

 

- Let's Get it On

You're an average warrior, I be the master

I can teach you how to fight a little faster

One false move, kid, that'd be disaster

I'll beat you endless and continue the day after

Street Fighter III, that's right, the third chapter

This game's for real, no blond's and no actors

Pick your character, know one to represent your life

We're stompin' anybody so make the choice right.

Foo Fighters - Walk

 

Do you remember the days
We built these paper mountains

And sat and watched them burn?

I think I found my place

Can't you feel it growing stronger?

Little conquerors 

 

Foo Fighters - Best of You

 

I've got another confession to make

I'm your fool

Everyone's got their chains to break

Holdin' you

 

Were you born to resist or be abused?

Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?

Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?

 

Oasis - Wonderwall

 

And all the roads we have to walk are winding

And all the lights that lead us there are blinding

There are many things that I would

Like to say to you 

But I don't know how

 

 

 

Just a few

Not letting go - Prince whateverer

Little filly tell me now, 
why this angel never leaves the ground. 
She's not the type to follow through, 
this stories pages start and end with you. 
She's left out in the rain. 
She's too shy to complain. 
Just suck it up, and let it go. 
How she feels inside we'll never know. 

I just love this song

I have many favorite songs so these are only a very small number of examples. I'll start out with some "light-hearted" examples (my sense of humor is pretty dark when it comes to music) and end with some more serious and meaningful examples.

• Get My --- by D12 [explicit/NSFW]
  
  "My ----- Big I and Mal' letting the ---- ----

  "Back to the pictures I was trying to get developed

• Ocean Gateways by Obscura
  
  "I consider our Earth as a part of the lowest area
  We live as we were at the bottom of the sea
  Where nothing is pure and undespoiled
  Where everything is eaten and eroded"
  
  
   
• Euclidean Elements by Obscura
  
  "We are here among ourselves
  With the sun and stars above us
  An abyss within the depth
  At a splendid place, above and below"
  
  
   
• Aevum by Obscura
  
  "Those who are ashamed to start from the earth
  To climb up from the creature mankind
  To draw those thoughts that are beyond
  Earth, fire, water, and air"
  
  
   
• Passion, Proof, Power by Ensiferum
  
  "Unbreakable
  Stands through time
  Dwells the proof of life
  Eternal Earth of mine
   
  Cleanse our souls
  No good thoughts shall burn
  Engulf the passion of life
  Eternal Fire of mine
   
  Carry it on
  The ancient wisdom of mankind
  Eternal Air of mine
   
  Renew us within
  Wash away
  The remains of lies
  Eternal Water of mine
   
  Indivisible
  Beyond death and life
  The answer divine
  Eternal Elements of mine"
  
  
  "Woe to the man
  Who disheartens the few
  Who reach for the light
  Who searches for the truth
   
  I only have just one more wish
  That this torch will be passed onto someone sentient like you
  When your time comes, don't lose your heart
  Have faith and patience and trust in the flame before passing it onto someone new"
  
  
   
• Song of Myself by Nightwish
  
  "Beyond all mortality we are, swinging in the breath of nature
  In early air of the dawn of life
  A sight to silence the heavens"

[Not_active 732]

"Fuck y'all clubs, fuck y'all pictures, your Instagram can gobble these nuts." - Kendrick Lamar

[GrauWitz 1,010]

Hey Jude - The Beatles

And anytime you feel the pain, hey Jude, refrain

Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

For well you know that it's a fool who plays it cool

By making his world a little colder

 

First we take Manhattan - Leonard Cohen

They sentenced me to twenty years of boredom

For trying to change the system from within

I'm coming now, I'm coming to reward them

First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin

 

Highway to Hell - AC/DC

Hey Satan! Playin' my dues!

Playin' in a rockin' band!

Hey Momma! Look at me!

I'm on my to the promised land!

[ThatOneComrade 1,092]

Garfunkel and Oates "Loser"

You can only fall that far
‘Cause you set yourself up so high
Who really cares if this time it didn’t fly?
At least you tried
At least you tried
At least you’re not that guy watching from the side
Who thinks he’s doing better ’cause he wasn’t defeated
When he’s just a non-entity who never competed
You’re the one who’s out there reaching for something greater
And you know
It’s better to be a loser
Than a spectator

 

Hiroyuki Sawano "Blumenkranz"

I want to become stronger
because our world is very cruel
It is advisable to remove withered flowers

 

Paramore "Ain't It Fun"

Don't go crying to your mama 'cause you're on your own in the real world (x4)

 

Dunno what that says about me but I really do love these lyrics

[rarity1 461]

In the Cannibal Corpse song "An Experiment in Homicide," it has these song lyrics.

 

I don't want to hurt you.

I just want to kill you.

 

I thought it was hilarious.
