Favorite lyrics/quotes from songs?
I <3 quotes and have huuuuuuge Word Docs of them. One is entirely song lyrics... I love clever or beautifully written lyrics. Here's a few of my favorites:
"Identities assume us as 9 and 5 add up
Synchronizing watches to the seconds that we lost
I looked up and saw you, I know that you saw me
We froze but for a moment in empathy....
I brought down the sky for you, but all you did was shrug
You gave my emptiness a name."
- Rise Against
"You are what you love, not who loves you."
- Fall Out Boy
"Though I've never been through hell like that, I've closed enough windows to know you can never look back
If you're lost and alone, or you're sinking like a stone, carry on
May your past be the sound of your feet upon the ground, carry on."
- Fun
"Where you invest your love, there you invest your life."
- Mumford and Sons
"Take a ride to find escape
She killed her past, for the future needs her
She told her lover to take her hand
For someone else’s fear, she’d break her back no longer...
Are you living the life that you dreamed of now?
Or are you working just to survive?
There’s a war that is waged in the mind, it’s forced inside
Between desire and the roles with to comply...
I met a woman, she told me her secrets
She said ‘Do what you love, ‘cause in the end we only die
Though the body may be imprisoned
Nothing can stop the bird of hope from taking flight.”
- RX Bandits

Re: Favorite lyrics/quotes from songs?
Second half of the final rap battle from the movie "8 Mile:
"This guy ain't no mother-fuckin MC
I know everything he's got to say against me
I AM white, I AM a fuckin bum, I do live in a trailer with my mom
I did get jumped by all 6 of you chumps
And Wink did fuck my girl
I'm still standin here screamin "FUCK THE FREE WORLD!"
Don't never try and judge me dude
You don't know what the fuck i've been through
But I know something about you
You went to CRANBROOK, thats a private school
Whats the matter dawg, you embarrased?
This guy's a gangsta?
His real name's Clarence
And Clarence lives at home with both parents
And Clarence's parents have a real good marriage
This guy dont wanna battle, he's shook
Cause ain't no such thing as halfway crooks!
He's scared to death
He's scared to look in his fuckin yearbook, fuck CRANBROOK
Fuck a beat I go accapella
Fuck a papa doc, fuck a clock, fuck a trailer, fuck everybody
Fuck y'all if you doubt me
I'm a piece of fuckin white trash I say it proudly
Fuck this battle I don't wanna win, I'm outtie
Here -- tell these people something they dont know about me"
^I love it because not only does Eminem own the rap battle, but he owns his whiteness too because everyone always ragged on him for being white and would say he couldn't rap just because he's white. I'm also from 8 mile
and I know Cranbrook is an expensive uppity private school way out in a suburb far from 8 mile and the guy he was battling was trying to be a G and think Eminem was soft just because Eminem is white but in reality the Cranbrook kid was the one who wasn't a real MC. The movie is alright, but I LOVE that final battle!

Re: Favorite lyrics/quotes from songs?
Lately I've been into the lyrics of Justin Timberlake's Mirrors... I'm thinking that it's good ju-ju for finding the perfect partner! hehe
-------
Aren't you somethin' to admire, cause your shine is somethin' like a mirror
And I can't help but notice, you reflect in this heart of mine
If you ever feel alone and the glare makes me hard to find
Just know that I'm always parallel on the other side
Cause with your hand in my hand and a pocket full of soul
I can tell you there's no place we couldn't go
Just put your hand on the glass, I'll be tryin' to pull you through
You just gotta be strong
Cause I don't wanna lose you now
I'm lookin' right at the other half of me
The vacancy that sat in my heart
Is a space that now you hold
Show me how to fight for now
And I'll tell you baby, it was easy
Comin' back into you once I figured it out
You were right here all along
It's like you're my mirror
My mirror staring back at me
I couldn't get any bigger
With anyone else beside of me
And now it's clear as this promise
That we're making two reflections into one
Cause it's like you're my mirror
My mirror staring back at me, staring back at me
Aren't you somethin', an original, cause it doesn't seem merely assembled
And I can't help but stare cause I see truth somewhere in your eyes
I can't ever change without you, you reflect me, I love that about you
And if I could, I would look at us all the time
Yesterday is history
Tomorrow's a mystery
I can see you lookin' back at me
Keep your eyes on me
Baby you're the inspiration for this precious song
And I just wanna see your face light up since you put me on
So now I say goodbye to the old me, it's already gone
And I can't wait wait wait wait wait to get you home
Just to let you know, you are
You are the love of my life
Girl you're my reflection, all I see is you
My reflection, in everything I do

Re: Favorite lyrics/quotes from songs?
My favorite song lyrics ever are from the Le Fantome track by CVS:
I'm your worst nightmare,
Your best dream.
Behind the mirror,
When you scream.
I'm your worst nightmare,
your best dream,
there'll be no ending,
I got you...
There's something growing,
Inside your heart.
Your eyes are closed but,
can see the sky.
There's nothing wrong,
It's just a sign.
I've got some wings,
for you to fly...

Re: Favorite lyrics/quotes from songs?
Inside of your walls will dwell a capricorn,
If we keep this up a love child will be born...
All because...of the greatesssssst.

My folks was making the best
When they was naked in bed ;)
- "Hardknocks" by Joey Bada$$
She got the power of the hootchie
I got the fever for the flavor of the cootchie
And did I mention, hey pay attention
Gonna take that bootie to the nudie dimension
I got the green glow under my car
I got the boom boom system you can hear real far

Yes ma'am...Rufus Wainwright can get it with that song...and I don't even know what he looks like lol.
Also.
Why you gotta show up in a old t-shirt that I love
Why you gotta tell me that I'm looking good
Don't know what you were thinking you were doing
Moving in for a hug, like you don't know I'm coming unglued
Why you gotta, why you wanna make me keep loving you
