Best lines in a song... or line.. whichever you prefer.


" And so I walk and try to find some space,
Where I can be alone to live with my mistakes" Musiq & Santana - Nothing At All


" You were supposto be my best friend,
And you do THIS to me.. " Glen Lewis - Its Not Fair

" I tried to think of you, as just another lover, in my past, that just didnt last..
but its not that simple... " Deborah Cox & R.L - We Cant Be Friends

" Bad miss'... throwin raspberry kisses on me
You looking for direction girl, I feel you'r vision on me" Break You Off- The Roots

"You're boys.. what? 3 yrs old now, correct?
He's my daugters age, neck in neck, the futures set..." Nas - The Call

and EVERY SINGLE LINE of Come Close To Me by Common

Dammit, there are more, but I cant remember them all. Seeing as how this was supposto be my ' favorite LINE in a song' I think I should stop. I dont want anyone to get 'offended' * looks at mods* lol
Ok so yes, those are some lines that I've come to be obsessed with lol

All the following are from Hybrid Theory
A face that awakes when I close my eyes
A face waches every time I lie
A face that laughs every time I fall
[And watches everything]
Linkin Park - Papercut


The sun goes down
I feel the light betray me
Linkin Park - Papercut

Now I find myself in question
[They point the finger at me again[
Guilty By association
[You point the finger at me again]
Linkin Park - Runaway

From the top to the bottom
Bottom to top I stop
At the core I've forgotten
In the middle of my thoughts
Taken far from my safety
the picture is there
the memory won't escape me
but why should I care
Linkin Park - Forgotten

A little piece of paper with a picture drawn floats
on down the street till the wind is gone
the memory now is like the picture was then
when the paper's crumbled up it can't be perfect againLinkin Park - Forgotten

they are, in my opinion, the Beethoven's of today. They combine calm and violent music together with perfection that I have never heard before, it will be a sad day when they fade out of popularity.

Everything you know is wrong
Black is white
Up is down
And short it long
And everything you thought was just so important
Doesn't matter
Everything you know is wrong
Just forget the words and sing along
All you need to understand is everything you know is wrong
Weird Al - Everything you know is wrong - Bad Hard Day

"She and I" by Alabama--still true after almost 35 years.

TANSTAAFL

Fr. Charlie+

All that is gold does not glitter,
not all those who wander are lost;
the old that is strong does not wither,
deep roots are not reached by the frost.
From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
a light from the shadows shall spring;
renewed shall be blade that was broken,
the crownless again shall be king.

I’m looking down now that it’s over
Reflecting on all of my mistakes
I thought I found the road to somewhere
Somewhere in His grace
I cried out heaven save me
But I’m down to one last breath


creed one last breath

I love this song, I sang it as a solo a few weeks ago, anyways, the above means a lot to me too. ( from the movie MULAN)


Also-

"The heart may freeze or it can burn, the pain will ease, If I can learn."
and the one in my pro...both from the musical rent...

This too-

"Want to vanish inside your kiss everyday I love you moe and more, listen to my heart can you hear it sing, tellin' me to give you everything."
From COme What May from the movie Moulin Rouge- sung by Nicole Kidman and Ewan McGregor, the version on the first soundtrack is the one I am drawing this from though it's n the second too.
and all of the song demons from Guster- Goodnight my Angel from Billy Joel and the most hysterical line ever is...
" I'm the only gay eskimo in my tribe..." ya gotta hear the song...

endless days of summer longer nights of gloom
waiting for the morning light
scenes of unimportance, photos in a frame
things that go to make up a life

The opening lines go like:

And I miss you - like the deserts miss the rain
-Missing by Everything but the girl..


And I find it kind of funny, I find it kind of sad
These dreams in which i'm dying, Are the best I've ever had..
-Mad mad world by Gary Jules, soundtrack for Donnie darko.


There were no lies between me and you
You said nothing of what you knew
But there was still something in your eyes
Left me helpless and paralysed.
-Chicane, No ordinary morning.


Oh it's been too long. Since I could see the stars overhead,
We used to count them,
Shared all our passions,
and swore not to tell
I hold them now.
And now I know where those stars fell...

-Anggun, Memory of your shores.

Precious hours / Fires dying down
While the night gives way to clear morning light

Perfumes gracing / The senses of our souls
A love that's true / Swear by the moon
I'll be here for you, for you, forever for you
-Anggun, By the moon


Okay, I know these are way too much lines, but these songs are so precious, they make way too much meaning... Smile

"Look at all the pop stars
Thinkin' that they're in charge
Let's see who's
The biggest whore"

From That's Entertainment

by: Powerman 5000

I like this because I HATE pop music, and I think this describes perfectly what it's become. I mean look at the little ho competition between Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera.

Now, I'm learning to fly
And this freedom is like
Nothing that I've ever known


Netherlands- Dan Fogelberg


High on this mountain
The clouds down below
I'm feeling so strong and alive
From this rocky perch
I'll continue to search
For the wind
And the snow
And the sky
I want a lover and
I want some friends
And I want to live in the sun
And I want to do all the things that I
never have done.
Sunny bright mornings
And pale moonlit nights
Keep me from feeling alone
Now, I'm learning to fly
And this freedom is like
Nothing that I've ever known
I've seen the bottom
And I've been on top
But mostly I've lived in between
And where do you go
When you get to the end of
your dream?
Off in the nether lands
I heard a sound
Like the beating of heavenly wings
And deep in my brain
I can hear a refrain
Of my soul as she rises and sings
Anthems to glory and
Anthems to love and
Hymns filled with earthly delight
Like the songs that the darkness
Composes to worship the light.
Once in a vision
I came on some woods
And stood at a fork in the road
My choices were clear
Yet I froze with the fear
Of not knowing which way to go
One road was simple
Acceptance of life
The other road offered sweet peace
When I made my decision
My vision became my release.

~How do you draw a blank?~
I'd rather learn from one bird how to sing than to teach ten thousand stars how not to dance - e e cummings

Never knowing if I could take it
If I would make it through the night
I held on to my faith
I struggled and I prayed
And now I've finally found my way

This is a retake of my life.
I was his star for many nights.
Now the roles have changed,
And you're the leading lady in his life.
Lights, camera, now you're on.
Just remember you've been warned.
Enjoy it now, 'cause it won't last.
Same script, different cast.

~Whitney Houston f. Deborah Cox - Same script, different cast.

That's such a nice song Smile *Sigh*

"...When they've used you,
and they've broken you,
and wasted all your money,
and cast you cares aside,
I will be there...."
Angel, down we go together; Morrissey

or on you will be the joke,
the only thing that you will drown is yourself
you see my dear, sorrow it floats...."

Is my body too bootylicious for ya' babe..."

"She ___ing hates me!
na na na na,
I tried to hard
and she tore my feelings like i had none
And ripped 'em away"

She hates me - puddle of mudd


"I never thought
I'd die alone
I laughed the loudest hoot I've known
I traced the cord back to the wall

I took my time
i hurried up
The choice was mine I didn't think enough

Im too depressed
too go on
You'll be sorry when I'm gone"

Adam's song - Blink182

I'm gonna kick off my shoes
and run in bare feet,
where the grass and the dirt
and the gravel all meet.
I'm goin back to the well,
gonna visit old friends
gonna feed my soul----
where the blacktop ends.
