I don’t want some pretty face to tell me pretty lies.
(Honesty - Billy Joel) xD -
In the daytime my mind makes the best of what it beats
But all emotions in the evening call me, call me, call me.
(Everyone knows I’m still in love with you - Sad Brad Smith) -
The smile on my lips is a sign that I don’t hear you leaving me
And I don’t hear my own soul scream
(My gift of silence - Blackfield)
So I, I won’t be the one
Be the one to leave this
In pieces
And you, you will be alone
Alone with all your secrets
And regrets
Don’t lie
(In pieces)
i’ve got so many favourite lines. i just list the ones, about which i was thinking in the last time.
arise and be all that you dreamed
flyleaf - arise
teacher said it’s just a phase,
when i grow up my children will probably do the same
kids just love to tease,
who’d know it put me underground at 17
billy talent - nothing to lose (i could post the whole song, but it would be too much
i’ve said it once, i’ve said it twice, i’ve said it a thousand fucking times
that i’m ok, that i’m fine, that it’s all just in my mind
bring me the horizon - it never ends
all gave some
some gave all
but for what
i want to kow
rise against - survivor guilt
Hold on, the weight of the world will give you the strength to go
May your love never end
And if you need a friend,
There’s a seat here along side me.
One of my favourite, all though there are so many…
“Break me in, teach us to cheat
And to lie, cover up
What shouldn’t be shared
And the truth’s unwinding
Scraping away”

Leif Erikson - Interpol.
Touch me
Take me to that other place
Teach me
I know I’m not a hopeless case
Beautiful day u2
I’m not crazy I’m just a little unwel
Unwel matchbox twenty
You give me three cigarettes to smoke my tears away
And I die when you mention his name
And I lied, I should have kissed you
When we were running in the rain
Cheers Darling -Damien Rice
People moving all the time
Inside a perfectly straight line
Don’t you wanna curve away?
When it’s such…
It’s such a perfect day
It’s such a perfect day
Now the sky could be blue
I don’t mind
Without you it’s a waste of time
Strawberry swing -Coldplay
All I ever wanted
All I ever needed
Is here in my arms
Words are very unnecessary
They can only do harm
Enjoy the silence -depeche mode
I wanna be drunk when I wake up
On the right side of the wrong bed
And never an excuse I made up
Tell you the truth I hate
What didn’t kill me,
It never made me stronger at all
Drunk Ed Sheeran
You think that I’m strong ,you’re wrong
Strong -Robbie Williams
Where there is desire
There is gonna be a flame
Where there is a flame
Someone’s bound to get burned
But just because it burns
Doesn’t mean you’re gonna die
You’ve gotta get up and try, and try, and try
Try-Pink
By becoming this all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you- Numb
All I want to do is trade this life for something new, holding on to what I haven’t GOOOOOOOOTTT.
Seriously though, these lines are so powerful to me. It also has to do with the beautiful melody and with how passionately Chester sings here.
Do you know the answers?
Tell me, I find my happy ending
Stone Tempe Pilots w/ Chester Bennington “Same on the Inside”
Me being a truth seeker makes me feel that I can never get answers and be “completely happy” but these lyrics hit me hard.
R u stalking me D;
Yeah Nah just seeing the things I skipped and going around the forum
Touch my tears with your lips
Touch my world with your fingertips
(And we can have forever)
Queen - Who Wants to Live Forever
I will probably add a gazillion more!!!
Colour me in :3
Do you ever just have that song that you find out about and you’re just dumbfounded listening to it because it puts sentiments into words that you never thought anybody could put into words?
Only a month or two ago did I have my first listen of Debris, and the first verse gave me that feeling like no other song ever has.
“Listen
My blood feels like it’s sitting still in my veins
My motivation was gone before it even came
Today and yesterday, they both seem the same
And no matter how I try I just can’t change
Give me one reason I should go outside
Everything’ll be the same no matter what I try
Some people’ll live and some people’ll die
Some people’ll build their whole life on a lie
I used to blame you for the things that I thought you’d say
So now I can’t blame you for going away
Cause these memories are the blood beating under my skin
Repeating the same thoughts again and again”
Sorry for quoting at length but every line there is so good. I have to draw special attention, however, to these lines:
“I used to blame you for the things that I thought you’d say
So now I can’t blame you for going away”
I can hardly believe how accurately this puts my entire 2018 (and I guess a lot of my recent life in general) into words. It’s a shame that it’s not really finished; with a second verse and a more developed bridge it could probably have been one of my top LP songs ever… now it’s mainly just good, with an extremely eloquent first verse.
