Your Favorite Quotes From Songs

[Yuu Xeno 159]

What are some of your favorite lines from songs you like, don't like, find okay, or downright only listen for that line. Any genre or song is alright. You can even post entire lyrics if the whole song is that good, no boundaries! Just share great song writing and all that jazz!

Personally, I really like these.

Meshuggah- Dancers to a Discordant System: We believe - so we're misled. We assume - so we're played. We confide - so we're deceived. We trust - so we're betrayed.

Vildhjarta- Traces: The clouds are getting darker, and the nights are cold now. When I am gone, I will be gone! This is irreversible!

Naberus- My Favorite Memory: Don't ask me to remember them, Don't tell me who the h*** I am! I've tried my best, don't understand! Won't you listen!

That's my top three...so far

This thread is a thread that I like.

My absolute favorite quote from a song is:

"Redeem me into childhood, show me myself without a shell." - Ghost Love Score by Nightwish. A line that relates to me so well that I have it as my personal motto here.

Others include:

"We fear that pop-culture is the only kind of culture we're ever gonna have. We want to stop reading magazines, stop watching TV stop caring about Hollywood, but we're addicted to the things we hate." - Dogma by KMFDM

"Without emotions, without feelings, without love, without hate, breathe is just a clock. Ticking. Ticking. Ticking." - Without Emotions by Combichrist. Those are actually the only lyrics in the song.

"Nightmares are nothing but a beast, a beast that eats you up! Go back to your hell and suffer your own life just make sure you don't breed!" - Bite Me! by Hocico

"Suffered a legion of blood and despair, Naked and twisted scratching in this empty skin, Perverse and destroyed, A forgery of what used to be, Drowning in the absence of self sustaining chemistry." - Anaesthetic for the Pathetic by Psyclon Nine

"New medicines should ease this pain. They're the only ailment for it, all over again." - New Medicines by Dead Poetic

"No not you me I left you me back there, we were never friends never friends don't get familiar. And what if I do? Arms will pass through straight-jackets, remember?" Split Personality by Shattermask

"A.M.E.R.I.C.A Home of the free, the sick and depraved!" - America by Motionless in White

"Mindwash the weak, turn them to pawns. Our crying mothers, their dying sons. Forget morality, inject vanity. Upon the alters, of history." - Clash of Cultures by Mechina

And there's more beyond that. Just putting in some that I really like.

Wow, that's a lot. Let me guess, you had to look up each of those to type it out? Or do you know them by heart, which is pretty awesome if you ask me.

Everything stays, but it still changes
Ever so slightly, daily and nightly
In little ways when everything stays

[Verse 1]
Many a sin I have witnessed
And in many indeed I have been
Many a rat I've befriended
And so many a thorn stood between
But of all the demons I've known
None could compare to you

[Pre-Chorus]
Every day that you feed me with hate
I grow stronger!
Every day that you feed me with hate
I grow stronger!

-Ghost - See the Light

[Passion 3,478]

"...we're only human, we're meant to dream.

Lost in a life full of mistakes, we do what feels right then fall with no grace.

Chased by the sun, escaping flatlines, dreams are a curse wake up you're alive...

...

...every day I'm getting a bit older, and every time I break I get stronger.

Every day it's getting a bit colder, when I grow closer... to the devil on my shoulder."

Faith Marie - Devil on my shoulder.

 

"...I will not 'pologize, I will not walk away.

I will not compromise you'll find I'm here to stay.

'Cuz I'm a fighter a tiger see me walk through fire try chain me up but I'll burst through I'll defy ya,

Set me on fire, watch you conspire, I will defy ya I'll set you on fire..."

AViVA - BRN

 

"...'till slowly I forget and my heart starts vanishing and suddenly I see that I can't break free, I'm

Swooping through the cracks of the dark eternity with nothing but my pain and paralizing agony,

to tell me who I am, who I was uncertainty enveloping my mind 'till I can't break free, and

Maybe it's a dream? Maybe nothing else is real? But it wouldn't mean a thing if I told you how I feel.

So I'm tired of all the pain, all the misery inside, and I wish that I could live feeling nothing but the night.

You can tell me what to say, you can tell me where to go, but I doubt that I would care and my heart would never know.

If I make another move, there will be no turning back, because everything will change and it all will fade to black.

Will tomorrow ever come? Will I make it through the night? Will there ever be a place for the broken in the light?

Am I hurting am I sad? Should I stay or should I go? I've forgotten how to tell, did I ever even know?

This time you're not hurting me, this time I will make my stand,  all the hatred in my eyes building up an evil plan.

Standing lonely in the night, with the darkness by my side, looking deep into myself and revealing only fright.

If I make another move, if I take another step, then it all would fall apart, there'll be nothing of me left.

If I'm crying in the wind, if I'm crying in the night, will there ever be a way, will my heart return to white?..."

Touhou - Bad Apple English ver.

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

But soon enough you're gonna think of me
And how I used to be, me

This chorus speaks to me very well

[Guest]

But just remember

Greater than all the wars we wage
And I don't know what you want me to be
But I don't want to be perfect anymore

"I grew up in it
I got stuck in it
Playin' our song on the stereo
Drivin' 'til we ran outta road

On a half tank of gasoline
I learned just who I wasn't and who I was
In that old truck" ~ That Old Truck by Thomas Rhett 

 

"Why am I 2 A.M. pickin' up my phone and you're standin' in my porch light
Backsliding
Wearin' your old t-shirt in the mornin', it feels so right

Say it's gonna be the last time
Backsliding, I'm backsliding" ~ Backsliding by Carrie Underwood 

 

"If you like causin' trouble up in hotel rooms

And if you like havin' secret little rendezvous

If you like to do the things you know that we shouldn't do...than baby I'm perfect, baby I'm perfect for you

And if you like going places we can't even pronounce

If you like to do whatever you been dreaming about, than baby you're perfect" ~ Perfect by One Direction 

 

"Silverado, candy painted
Ray Ban's got the whole world shaded
Chrome piece tucked in the console
Riding high, roll up on the down low
Feeling lucky, got hooked up with some Kentucky clear

And get your shine on
'Cause you and me be rocking all night long
Summer sky dripped in rhinestones
Turn your party lights on, baby get your shine on" ~ Get Your Shine on by Florida Georgia Line

[TBD 17,228]

Man I have so many.. might add later on but for now.

1. ”Oh, Rock'n'Roll I gave you all the best years of my life All the teeny sunny Sundays, all the moonless summer nights I was so busy in the bed room, writing love songs to you.But you were changing your direction and I never even knew That I was always just one step behind you”

2. “I'll never let you seeThe way my broken heart is hurting me
I've got my pride and I know how to hide
All the sorrow and pain
I'll do my crying in the rain”

3, “When you're at home alone, the blues will taunt you constantly
When you're out in a crowd, those blues will haunt your memory”
 

4. “I look at you all, see the love there that's sleeping
While my guitar gently weeps
Look at you all
Still my guitar gently weeps”

5. “I bet on losing dogs
I know they're losing and I pay for my place
By the ring
Where I'll be looking in their eyes when they're down
I'll be there on their side
I'm losing by their side”

 

6. “People, don't you understand
The child needs a helping hand
Or he'll grow to be an angry young man some day?
Take a look at you and me
Are we too blind to see
Do we simply turn our heads, and look the other way”
