Doesn’t matter if the song as a whole is your favorite, I’m just curious what line really stood out to you in a good way.
UH!
Killing in the name by rage against the machine
I really wish my cactus never died
Artist: Knapsack Can’t remember the song name right now
It’s the opening lyric to the song, and I just think it’s a great way to illustrate depression, and wanting with every fibre of your being to do something but being unable to. Cactuses are one of the easiest plants to take care of, so wanting to keep it alive but having it die just shows how helpless it can get
I have squandered my resistance For a pocketful of mumbles Such are promises All lies and jest Still a man hears what he wants to hear And disregards the rest
The Boxer is good, but The whole of The Sound of Silence is one of my faves.
“Together we’ll find your monster soul.”
"The teacher stands in front of the class, but the lesson plan he can’t recall. The student’s eyes, don’t perceive the lies, bouncing off every fucking wall. His composure is well kept. I guess he fears playing the fool. The complacent students sit, and listen to the bullshit that he’d learned in school.
Europe ain’t my rope to swing on. Can’t learn a thing from it, yet we hang from it. Gotta get it, gotta get it together then, like the motherfuckin’ Weathermen."
Adding one more that speaks to me alot at the moment, even if it’s not an all time favorite:
"All at once,
the world can overwhelm me,
there’s almost nothing that you can tell me,
that would ease my mind.
Which way will you run?
When it’s allways all around you.
The feeling’s lost and found you again,
the feeling that we have no control."
FUCK YOU, I WON’T DO WHAT YOU TELL ME!

If I can only choose one:
And when the broken-hearted people
Living in the world agree
There will be an answer
Let it beFor though they may be parted there is
Still a chance that they will see
There will be an answer
Let it beThe Beatles, “Let It Be”
When I have to make choices like this, I really feel like Dan Andriano of Alkaline Trio had it right in “Blue Carolina”:
You know all my favorite singers
Have stolen all of my best linesMaybe win the lottery Buy myself a lobotomy Scoop out my brains, and maybe then blend right in with management.
Idk I just work here - DURRY
And you run and you run to catch up with the sun but it’s sinking
Racing around to come up behind you again
Sun is the same, in a relative way, but you’re older
Shorter of breath and one day closer to death
I’m surprised this isn’t getting more love. For me it’s a toss up between Time and Money lyrics-wise.
Most people don’t change, they only get old.
Fuck you, I won’t do what you tell me!!!
I must fight this sickness
Find a cure
I must fight this sickness
The Cure - Pornography
I don’t know why I like these lyrics, but they hit hard
„Lucy in the sky with Diamond Dave’s not here“
Dream Theater - OctavariumDream Theatre songs always have amazing lyrics.
“Is a dream a lie if it don’t come true, or is it something worse?” Bruce Springsteen This line pops up in my head from time to time.
