My signature quote is the line that has always been most meaningful for me!

Another would be:
"If they were right I'd agree, but it's them they know not me" Cat Stevens.

I listen to the wind....to the wind of my soul....Cat Stevens

I've always liked the line...
you smile like a saint but you curse like a sailor and your eyes say the joke's on me- Dashboard Confessional...

-eM
... isn't feeling so optmistic

Let it shatter the walls for a new sun...A new day has come
-from the song "A new day has come" by Celeine Dion, album-"A new day has come".
I hope that the participaters in this thread would mention the song's-and singer's, also, if possible, the album's-name.And many more lines from many more songs, I'll try to think over.

~Feeling is seeing what can perhaps not be seen.~-me, Letswriteandshare.

Mine would probably have to be "..and you looked that of an angel" from Somewhere in the Middle by: Dishwalla

Yellow is COOL!!

so lucky, so strong, so proud?
I never said thank you for that,
now I'll never have a chance."

Everything that you see on the set
You look around at your sleepy little town

This is one of my favorite all timers;


1. Damn I Wish I Was Your Lover
That old dog has chained you up alright
Give you everything you need
To live inside a twisted cage
Sleep beside an empty rage
I had a dream I was your hero

Damn I wish I was your lover
I'll rock you till the daylight comes
Make sure you are smiling and warm
I am everything
Tonight I'll be your mother I will
Do such things to ease your pain
Free your mind and you won't feel ashamed

Open up on the inside gonna fill you up gonna make you cry

This monkey can't stand to see you black and blue
Give you something sweet each time you
Come inside my jungle book
What is it just too good
Don't say you'll stay
'Cause then you go away

Damn I wish I was your lover
I'll rock you till the daylight comes
Make sure you are smiling and warm
I am everything
Tonight I'll be your mother I will
Do such things to ease your pain
Free your mind and you won't feel ashamed

Shucks, for me there is no other
You're the only shoe that fits
I can't imagine I'll grow out of it
Damn I wish I was your lover

If I was your girl believe me
I'd turn on the Rolling Stones
We could groove along and feel much better
I could do it forever and ever
Give me an hour to kiss you
Walk through heaven's door I'm sure
We don't need no doctor to feel much better
Let me in
Forever and ever and ever and ever

I sat on a mountainside with peace of mind
I lay by the ocean making love to her with visions clear
Walked for days with no one near
And I return as chained and bound to you

Damn I wish I was your lover
I'll rock you till the daylight comes
Make sure you are smiling and warm
I am everything
Tonight I'll be your mother I will
Do such things to ease your pain
Free your mind and you won't feel ashamed

Shucks, for me there is no other
You're the only shoe that fits
I can't imagine I'll grow out of it
Damn I wish I was your lover

Just open up I'm gonna come inside I wanna fill you up I wanna make you cry.....
(Damn I wish I was your lover)
Gettin' on the subway and I'm comin' uptown....
(Damn I wish I was your lover)
Standing on a street corner waiting for my love to change....
(Damn I wish I was your lover)
Feelin' like a school boy, too shy and too young....
(Damn I wish I was your lover)
Open up I wanna come inside I wana fill you up I wanna make you cry....
(Damn I wish I was your lover)
Gettin' on my camel and I'll ride it uptown....
(Damn I wish I was your lover)
Hanging around this jungle, wishing that this.....

Well,...you asked!So there....

I sidestep the either/or choices of logic, and choose both.-Ken Feit

"Why everything's turned inside out, Instilling so much doubt, It makes me so tired - I feel so uninspired, My head is battling with my heart,
My logic has been torn apart" -Bic Runga "Sway"

"I'be been searching for a reason and I'm running out of time. I can feel that it's the safe one, it's time to make my mind."
-Dana Glover "Thinking over

"There are many things that I would like to say to you, but i don't know how. Because maybe, You're gonna be the one that saves me, and after all, you're my wonderwall." -Oasis "Wonder Wall"

"So afraid to love you more afraid to lose, clinging to a past that doesn't let me choose." -Sarah Mclachlan "I Will Remember You"

"How you gonna act like we don't be making love. You know we be tearing it up, breaking stuff, that ghetto love." -Tyrese "How you gonna act like that"

As you turn to walk away
As the door behind you closes
The only thing I have to say
It's been a good year for the roses

*Precise Imagination*

All hail the Mango Crayon!

We want to stand upon our own feet and look fair and square at the world - its good facts, its bad facts, its beauties, and its ugliness; see the world as it is and be not afraid of it. Conquer the world by intelligence and not merely by being slavishly subdued by the terror that comes from it. -Bertrand Russell, Why I Am Not A Christian

Unsinkable ships-sink
unbreakable walls-break
sometimes you think the things that will never happen
happen just like that
unbendable steal-bends
if the furry of the wind is unstopable
ive learned to never under-estimate the impossible

-Joe Nichols

Sometimes I thank God for unanswered prayers
Remember when your talkin to the man upstairs
That just because he doesn't answer
Doesnt mean he dont care
Some of God's greatest gifts are unanswered prayers.

-Garth Brooks

It's funny that you guys come up with sooo many lines and even though I live on the other side of the earth I know many too.. haha okay maybe I'm weird here but yeah.

Damn love those Sarah McLachlan lines too!! She is just a waaaayyy too good singer. Wish I could see here live

Anyway.. wanna add 2 more lines from me ..

Sometimes I seek a reason why I'm still here, and deeper it takes me down, you're the reason why I'm still here - Kane "Not Here"

Damn those eyes
They keep me torn inside
She runs like a river through me
Always you
Eyes don't lie, words may try - Kane "Damn Those Eyes"

*~*For it was not into my ear you whispered, but into my heart.
It was not my lips you kissed, but my soul*~* -Judy Garland

Just call me Gena!

It's like a dream you try to remember but it's gone
Then you try to scream but it only comes out as a yawn
When you try to see the world beyond your front door
Bare Naked Ladies, Pinch Me, album: Maroon

But I keep on a comin' here and
standing in this state
And I'm never really sure if
you'll take
What I'm saying the right way
Blind Melon, Galaxie, Album: Soup

Something kinda sad about
the way that things have come to be.
Desensitized to everything.
What became of subtlety?
How can it mean anything to me
If I really don't feel anything at all?
Tool, Stinkfist, Album: Aenima

i usually have some in my sig. btw, i saw lots of people like some of the same bands that i do. (something corporate, dishwalla, sarah maclachlan[whose name i can never spell], barenaked ladies, etc)

here's a couple of stanzas from "big blue sea" by bob schneider (i like the entire song):

I know I’ll never know nobody
Better than I know myself
But I can't even figure out
Just what the f**k I’m all about

I'm sinking, I’m swimming
No wait a minute I’m drowning
I aint kidding around
Sometimes I think Im gonna make it
Sometimes I do sometimes I fake it

And it's days like this that burn me
Turn me inside out and learn me
Not to tell you anything I think I know
But I think I’ll tell you all that I know

Anywhere and everywhere
Made up my mind it's getting weird
It's queer to think it might not
Get much better than today I fear
Won't ever know true happiness
I tried so hard I did my best
But my best just wasn't good enough
Oh God I hate this stuff

---

here i am / i woke up in a car / i traced away the fog / so i could see the mississippi on her knees / i've never been so lost / i've never felt so much at home / please write my folks and throw away my keys / i woke up in a car-something corporate, "i woke up in a car"


we're all soldiers in the war / tell me what are we fighting for?-alana davis, "save the day"


your education x-ray cannot see under my skin / i won't tell you a damn thing / that i could not tell my friends / roaming through this darkness / i'm alive but i'm alone / part of me is fighting this / but part of me is gone-3 doors down, "when i'm gone"
