What Is The Best Line/Verse in a Song (1 Viewer)

[ur_inner_child]

There's always that ONE LINE that seems to make all the difference in the song, like you can relate to it perfectly, or they've finally articulated an emotion, feeling or moment in your life when you've been trying to explain it and they just found the words for you.

Here are mine. Post yours....

Torn by Natalie Imbuglia
"I wish you made sense like a joke that no one gets"

The Special Two by Missy Higgins
"Step outside my minds eyes for a minute, and I'll look over me like a doctor looking for disease, something that can ease the pain, but nothing cures the hurt you, you bring on by yourself, just remembering how we were"

St Patricks' Day by John Mayer
"If our always was all that we gave and we someday take that away, I'll be alright, if it was just til St Patricks' Day"

Split Screen Sadness by John Mayer
"I know it was me who called it over but I still wish you fought me to your dying day - don't let me get away"

Your Body Is A Wonderland by John Mayer
"Damn baby, you frustrate me, I know you're mine, but you looks so good it hurts sometimes"

Big Machine by Goo Goo Dolls
"Swallow all your bitter pills that's what makes you beautiful, you're all or not. I don't need what you ain't got.... Love and sex and lonliness, take what's yours and leave the rest so I'll survive, God it's good to be alive"

Shimmer by Fuel
"She says that love is for fools that fall behind, and I'm somewhere between"

Diary by Alicia Keys
"Think of me as the pages in your diary"

Ordinary Day by Vanessa Carlton
"As I looked up into those eyes his vision borrows mine, and I know he's no stranger for I feel I've held him for all of time"

White Houses by Vanessa Carlton
"My injuries are all in the dust, but in my heart is the five of us in white houses. And you, maybe you'll remember me. What I gave is yours to keep"


Now post yours:

 

[SuGa BunI =D]

====Usher - My Boo
There's always that one person
that will always have your heart

====John Mayer - No Such Thing
I just found out there's no such thing as the real world
Just a lie you got to rise above

====John Mayer - Love Song For No One
searching all my days to find you
not sure what I'm looking for
I'll know where
when I see you

====Gwen Stefani - Rich Girl
See, I'd have all the money in the world, if I was a wealthy girl
No man could test me, impress me, my cash flow would never ever end

====Destiny's Child - Independent Women Part II
Cause I'm am my number one priority
No falling in love, no commitment from me
Don't depend on no man to give you what you want

==== Mousse T - is it cos im cool l
Is it ‘cos I’m hip
Why you dig my shit
I‘m just looking around
For some decent conversation
No hidden agenda
No phony pretender
No holding on out for no sweet sixteen
Or peppermint dream

 

[Purp|e]

hmmm well on the morning b4 first english hsc exam i woke up to 'evermore - its too late' ... not that much of a fan ... but it all made sense at the time.

Monday morning hesitate
Cant get out of bed
I'd rather go back to the dreams
Of living in my head, yeah

 

[Gavvvvvin]

Let It Be Broke:
I live in truth, complacently.
Where's the threat you see in me?
Am I the cause of your self consciousness?
You scream at me
'cause I can't ignore the destructiveness that you support,
'cause my life's contrary to yours.
No soft words from my mouth.
A glazed look in your eyes.
I live in the world of reality, you comfort yourself with lies.
I will release myself, I will detach myself from you.
I will detach myself from your kind.
I've seen your life but I can't see how it is
that you can be so content in your own ignorance.
Its been so dark for so long now a new light has come along,
illuminating all, so shut your eyes.
I won't tell you what you want to hear,
I will show you what's real. i will, will defy.

Malleus Maleficarum:
Open my eyes as I submerge and I won't deny what I've been since birth.
I'll die drowned by your standards.

My skin is singed but it heals my heart and with glowing pride I'll wear my scars.

 

[wanton-wonton]

To live is to die.

When a man lies he murders
Some part of the world
These are the pale deaths which
Men miscall their lives
All this I cannot bear
To witness any longer
Cannot the kingdom of salvation
Take me home

Julius Caesar and the Roman Empire
Couldn't conquer the blue sky

Now I'm walking again to the beat of a drum
And I'm counting the steps to the door of your heart

Nothing’s gonna change my world

 

[Sarah168]

Jamie Cullum - These are the Days

Sometimes when the nights are closing early
I remember you and I start to smile

Even though now you don’t want to know me
I get on by, and I go the extra mile

 

[fine ambiguity]

Just before our love got lost you said
"I am as constant as a northern star"
and I said
"constantly in the darkness
where's that at
if you want me I'll be in the bar"
...
you're in my blood like holy wine
you taste so bitter but so sweet
Oh I could drink a case of you

Shimmer by Fuel

Maroon 5 - the sun

refuse to regret
so glad i met you
take my breath away

worth all the pain that i have
gone through

Grinspoon - bad funk stripe
Left operator lift me up better
I know you do it well
Cos i've seen you when your in the rain
And your pain won't go back
Cos i know it

You try everything to tell me that you know it
You know, i know, you know
A bad funk stripe


Gyroscope - are you getting any better?
i need you to promise me
are you gettng any better?

Gyroscope - safe forever
quit analysing everything i say. stop policing me
you have nothing on me . . . blank page - funny that
do you remember every word i say? essentially yes
now stare right back at me... blank face - figured that
did it for you girl - i did it for you
safe forever... stay forever... forever

Hole - mailbu
Burn the sorrow from your eyes.
Oh, come on, be alive again.
Don't lay down and die.

I can't be near you. The light just radiates......

Dashboard - As lovers go

i'll be a cavalier...i'll be yours my dear.


Dashboard - Rapid hope loss

Well thanks for waiting this long to show yourself.

Cause now that I can see you,
I don't think you're worth a second glance.

So much for all the promises you made, they served you well
and now you're gone and they're wasted on me.
So much for your endearing sense of charm, it served you well
and now it's gone and you're wasted on me.

Sexual hang-ups leave me waiting nude and while alone
It just gets aggravating masturbating to a dial tone.
I'm the home to run-away trains of thought
My one track mind is a collision inter-course where victims cross,
Bedroom eyes...uncross their legs exposing inner thighs
I disrobe and show my most convincing disguise.
I've lived so many lives each death has left my face scarred
Hid so many lies under my breath that I can't face God
Dig into my mind deep enough you'll find a graveyard
I get nervous bodies will resurface every time it rains hard

 

[rebooki]

The Killers - Glamorous Indie Rock & Roll

"I take my twist with a shout
A coffee shop with a cause, then I'll freak you out
No sex, no drugs, no life, no love
When it comes to today

Stay if you wanna love me, stay
Oh don't be shy, let's cause a scene
Like lovers do on silver screens
Let's make it yeah, we'll cause a scene..."

The All-American Rejects - Swing, Swing

"Swing, swing, swing by the tangles of....
My heart is crushed by a former love.
Can you help me find a way to carry on again?"

[biggles04]

Every time I see that girl, you know I wanna lay down and die..
later on...
I saw her again last night and ya know that I shouldn't
To string her along, it's just not right, If I couldn't I wouldn't, but what can I do? I'm lonely too.
and it makes me feel so good to know that she'll never leave me.

i just love the dynamic texture of the chorus of the song. The lyrics are plentiful and excellently written, but I just love the texture, what a fantastic song; such energy, such emotion!!!! OH I WISH I COULD WRITE SONGS LIKE THAT!!!!!!!!
