What are your favorite lyrics? Keep in mind they could be lyrics you made up or from a song. Here are a few of mine

"A Warning" - Lamb of God

Im a monster so dont walk my way
Dont trust my smile - my teeth are like knives
I'll drag you down and suck you dry
Dont laugh at my jokes - the punchline is murder
Dont enjoy my touch, my caress hides a choke hold
Im only happy when I've ruined everything I see
Believe everything you've ever heard about me - suck it up
If you see me coming dont stop, just turn and walk the other way
I will not lie about what i have done
I will not lie about what i will do to you - the sweat of my exertion is pure poison

Im hell...

"Broken" - Seether

I wanted you to know I love the way you laugh
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain away
I keep your picture and I know it serves me well
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain

Cause Im broken when Im open and I dont feel like
I am strong enough
Cause Im broken when im lonesome and I dont feel right
When you're gone away

I worst is over now and we can breathe again
I wanna hold you high - you steal my pain away
There so much left to learn and no one left to fight
I wanna hold you high and steal you're pain

**chorus**

You've gone away
You dont feel me anymore

Top three, in order.

Kathy's Song, Simon and Garfunkle (Words by Paul Simon)
and the song I was writing is left undone,
I don't know why I spend my time,
Writing songs I can't believe,
With words that tear and strain to rhyme.

Stairway to Heaven, Led Zeppelin (Words by Robert Plant)
There are two paths you can go by but in the long run,
there's still time to change the road you're on.

The Boxer Simon and Garfunkle (Words by Paul Simon)
Asking only workman's wages I go looking for a job, but I get no offers...
just a come-on from the whores on second avenue,
I do declair, there were times that I was so lonesome I took some comfort there,
li, li, li, li, li, li, li.

[InoIdontno]

My favorite lyrics are the one Misfit translated in another post ~

"Can't touch this! Ber ner ner nernt, nernt nernt nernt nernt, BER NER NER NERNT, NERNT NERNT NERNT NERNT!"

THAT RAWKS!

[Dromiceius]

NIN - Piggy
"Nothing can stop me now, 'cuz I don't care anymore."

Jamiroquai - Canned Heat
"I used to put my faith in worship
But then my chance to get to Heaven slipped
I used to worry about the future
But then I threw my caution to the wind
I had no reason to be care free
No no no, until I took a trip to the other side of town
Yeah yeah yeah, you know I heard that boogie rhythm
Hey - I had no choice but to get down down down down"

Stairway to Heaven, in reverse
"oh heres to my sweet satan. one little path whould make me sad, whose power is satan. he'll give you 666. There was a little toolshed where he made us suffer, sad satan."

Bullshit or not, it's pretty funny.

[aelurus]

Imagine-John Lennon

Imagine there's no heaven,
It's easy if you try,
No hell below us,
Above us only sky,
Imagine all the people
living for today...

Imagine there's no countries,
It isnt hard to do,
Nothing to kill or die for,
No religion too,
Imagine all the people
living life in peace...

Imagine no possesions,
I wonder if you can,
No need for greed or hunger,
A brotherhood of man,
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world...

You may say I'm a dreamer,
but I'm not the only one,
I hope some day you'll join us,
And the world will live as one.

This song is terribly moving for me because it describes a utopia I had always imagined, and the first time I heard it I was like 'here is a song which perfectly echoes my wishes for humanity!'

Thank you InoIdontno. I know I am not the first person to make this ridiculous noise. Are you sure you haven't heard this before me?

My favorite lyrics to a song is this:

“You are a sunrise without an end”

I don’t know the name of the singer or the song, it’s not in English. I think it is so beautiful to imagine being a sunrise chaser, you would have to always be in front of it for it to never end, and running really fast. Like a tornado chaser or something.

[Darktech]

The Eldar by Blind Guardian:
I've seen the moon
And the first sunrise
I'll leave it to the memories
And kiss the wind goodbye

Drunken Lullabies by Flogging Molly

Must it take a life for hateful eyes
To glisten once again
Five hundred years like Gelignite
Have blown us all to hell
What savior rests while on his cross we die
Forgotten freedom burns
Has the Shepard led his lambs astray
To the bigot and the gun

Must it take a life for hateful eyes
To glisten once again
Cause we find ourselves in the same old mess
Singin' drunken lullabies

I have tons of fav lyrics from regular artists/bands, but I thought I'd pull a verse from the movie musical Willy Wonka (aka Charlie & The Chocolate Factory)




I want the world,
I want the whole world.
I want to lock it all up in my pocket
It's my bar of chocolate
Give it to me now!

I just love the whole lyrics of this song
"214" by Rivermaya
Am I real?
Do the words I speak before you
Make you feel
That the love I have for you
Will see no ending?

Well, if you look into my eyes
Then you should know
That you have nothing here to doubt
Nothing to fear
And you can lay your questions down
'Cause if you'll hold me
We can fade into the night
And you'll know

The world could die
And everything may lie
Still you shouldn't cry
'Cause time may pass
But longer than it'll last
I'll be by your side

Take my hand
And gently close your eyes
So you could understand
That there's no greater love tonight
Than what I've for you
Well, if you feel the same way for me
Then let go

We can journey to a garden no one knows
Life is short, my darling
Tell me that you love me

So we can fade into the night
And you'll know
The world could die
And everything may lie
But you won't cry
'Cause time may pass
And everything won't last
But I'll be by your side
Forever by your side
So you won't cry

I think the title 214 is Valentines Day
