[Dreambiscuit 8,114]

 

From 'I See The Light':

And at last I see the light

And it's like the fog has lifted

And at last I see the light

And it's like the sky is new

And it's warm and real and bright
And the world has somehow shifted
All at once everything is different
Now that I see you

Now that I see you

 

From 'Xanadu': 

The love that echoes of long ago
You needed the world to know
They are in Xanadu
The dream that came through a million years
That lived through all the tears
It came to Xanadu.

 

From 'Do I Love You Because You're beautiful?':

Do I love you because you're beautiful,
or are you beautiful because I love you?
Am I making believe I see in you
a girl too lovely to be really true?

Are you the sweet invention of a lover's dream
or are you really as beautiful as you seem?

 

 

 

 

 

[Quinch 1,119]

"And now I'm gone and forgotten,

Everything inside me pushes to realize

I never was anything but a slave

To circumstance and bad fortune.

It's time to decide."

[Early Sunsets 2,106]

The New National Anthem - Pierce the Veil

And if I ever catch the ones who hurt you,
I'm hoping that God looks away this time.

Bulletproof Love - Pierce the Veil

This isn't fair!
Don't you try to blame this on me.
My love for you was bulletproof but you're the one who shot me.
And God damn it, I can barely say your name,
So I'll try to write it and fill the pen with blood from the sink.

Smile! (I'm Not Okay) - Sounds Like Harmony

I smile at the mirror and I scream at the glass.
It's the only thing that makes me feel like something loves me back,
Because I hate my image and I'm better off dead,
But I'd rather die alone than be with anyone else.

Skylines and Turnstiles - My Chemical Romance

And in this moment we can't close the lids on burning eyes
Our memories blanket us with friends we know like fallout vapors
Steel corpses stretch out towards an ending sun, scorched and black
It reaches in and tears your flesh apart
As ice cold hands rip into your heart

That's if you've still got one that's left inside that cave you call a chest
And after seeing what we saw, can we still reclaim our innocence

I Don't Love You - My Chemical Romance

When you go
Would you even turn to say
"I don't love you
Like I did
Yesterday"

[Venomous 18,814]

“I never let people in and I have you to remind me why”.

- I’d Rather Drown by Set it Off

[Envy 6,004]

I rarely pay attention to lyrics, aside from in British Folk where the songs tell a story.

BUT there is one that comes to mind.

"Too many churches, and not enough truth" - from Undun by The Guess Who.

To be fair, I haven't placed it in the context of the song as a whole, that part just stuck out to me. It could be interpreted in multiple ways even from those words alone.

[Quinch 1,119]

"Feels like I could reach out

Into dark October skies.

Scoop up seven of Orion's stars,

Hold them like shining diamonds.

Then I turn and return

To a world less than I'd like it to be.

Strange thoughts staring at the skies

On an Autumn's night."

[SpittyPie2005 3,923]

"So what if I'm crazy? All the best people are."

[Megas 27,087]

YOU GOT THE TOUCH!

YOU GOT THE POWAAAAAAHHHHH

[Splashee 28,537]

"So call me maybe" which I always change into "So call me crazy"

[Pandora 38,004]

"I am not afraid to keep on living
I am not afraid to walk this world alone
Honey, if you stay
you'll be forgiven
Nothing you can say can stop me going home

Can you see
My eyes are shining bright?
'Cause I'm out here
On the other side

Of a jet black
Hotel mirror
And I'm so weak
Is it hard understanding

I'm incomplete?
A love that's so demanding
I get weak!"

[vampireponyprince 184]

"Cause sometimes things will bend you,
But trust me you'll be fine
'Cause I've been moving mountains that I once had to climb.
And life's not out to get you,
Despite the things you've been through,
Because what you give is what you get,
And it doesn't make sense to make do."
