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.

    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 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."

    If I can only choose one:

    And when the broken-hearted people
    Living in the world agree
    There will be an answer
    Let it be

    For though they may be parted there is
    Still a chance that they will see
    There will be an answer
    Let it be

    The 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 lines

    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

    “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.
