Your favorite Lines and Lyrics

Many times, a single line can be the difference between a song that pulls you in and one you never give a second thought to. So Post your favorite single lines from a song or what lyric in a song made you want to play it over and over again. Try to keep it to one or two lines at the most unless you need to quote more to put the words in context.

I'll start with one, see if you can guess who sang it and what song it is (answer to the song is in spoiler)

"You're only once, twice,... Three times a lady..."

...every night in my dreams...I see you...I feel you...this is is how I know you go on...

Yeah..I feel you :P

Stupidity aside..I always really liked this :
Imagine there's no heaven. It's easy if you try. No hell below us. Above us only sky. Imagine all the people. Living for today.

Imagine-John Lennon

Oh man, I have so many.
One I'm listening to at the moment:

"I've got 2 sets of headphones, I miss you like hell".

"Hjärtat slår, det slår skiten ur mig." - Låt mig följa dig ner by Parken.

Basically: "My heart beats, it beats the crap out of me." - Let me follow you down by Parken (The park).

Yay for literary translations.

These are some of the lyrics to my favorite song

"when i dream of the future i see an arm full of holes empty pockets and a bleeding nose packing up a lung filled with blood and tar on a side walk next to my spenging jar"

Some of my favorite lyrics come from the song Gonna Lose Your Soul by Deadmans Bones... Awesome song.

i get up in the morning
to the beat of the drum
i get up to this feeling,
keeps me on the run.
i get up in the morning,
put my dreams away,
i get up, i get up, i get up again

This is an incredibly difficult assignment, since, when I find a song that speaks to me in any way, I immediately try to assess all its lyrics in a fitting way, so that it may be assimilated into my library of songs to sing.

*tries to recall*

There are a couple songs though that I know have one or two great lines, but I never could get behind, but I can't think of them, for the life of me.

One of my favorite lyrics from a song was this one :

"Have you ever stopped? Raised your face to the Sun and screamed?"

Dilated - Atreyu

"Hell isn't a place you go if you're not a Christian, it's the failure of your life's greatest ambition" - Immortal Technique

Hip Hop isn't dead its just underground.

It's a bit embarrassing, but i actually like alot of paramore's lyrics
i think (although a bit generic) "is there anybody here who hears me crying, I'm dying" - Scars on braodway

"In that moment when you realize, something you thought would always be there will die, like everything else" - (When Anger Shows - Editors) Pretty brutal.

"St. Peter greets with empty eyes then turns and locks the gates" - (Vigil)First song I heard by Lamb of God.

"There's Nothing believable in being honest. So cover your lies up with another promise" - (Blood - Editors)

"And I won't follow you into the rabbit hole. I said I would, but then I saw your shivered bones. They didn't want me to" - (Terrible Love - The National)

"Stand inside an empty tuxedo with grapes in my mouth, waiting for Ada" - (Ada - The National)

"I decree today that life is simply taking and not giving" - (Still Ill - The Smiths)

"I could say anything you need, anyone you knew, Anything you see, anything you say, Anything you need, anyone you knew, anything you, It would be this, it would be this." - (Dead American Writers - Tired Pony)

"In The End, We're All Just Chalk Lines On The Concrete. Drawn, Only To Be Washed Away. For The Time That I've Been Given, I Am What I Am" (Never Enough- Five Finger Death Punch)

"If I slip you into the deep bushes, you'll probably be violated by the scent of our mixing sweats." - Cantarella by Kaito

;D

"I am not fly, I am levitation. I am representing an entire generation. I hear your criticism loud and clear, thats when I know that the time is near, so we become alive in a time of fear"

Nicki Minaj Ft Rihanna - Fly

Graduate from school? Don't make me laugh.
I got an F+ in basic math.

I would rather see your face in Hell than speak another word of this perfect world.

-Parkway Drive, "Boneyards"

This nightmare haunts the inside of your eyes,
Whether in sleep, or wide awake, or somewhere that lies between.
A womans silhouette, perfect in every way, now thrown into darkest regret.
And as she begins to fade, you hear a voice that pierces the dark:
'You never came for me.'
Ive always been alone in love.

Catherine-Is It tomorrow yet?

Dance, Fucker, Dance,
You were born to entertain,
Sing, Choir Boy, Sing,
Wash your sins down the drain,
In a violent haze,
Another streetlight stays,
Dance, Fucker, Dance,
You were born to entertain....

Draining the snot, I rip out the eyes
Squeezing them in my hands nerves are incised
Peeling the flesh off the bottom of my weapon
Involuntarily pulpifying facial regions

Cannibal Corpse-Hammer Smashed Face
