Do you have a favourite line of a song - where it conjures up a special feeling, or you simply like the image it portrays?

One of mine is from "Chasing Cars" (Snow Patrol)

"If I lay here - if I just lay here.....would you lie with me and just forget the world?"

"Please don't break my ideals
And say what's fake was always real.
I was the one, now I'm gone,
Take me back again." - Muse - 'Shine' (Incredibly beautiful song, closest I ever came to crying by music alone)

"I hear you calling and its needles and pins. I wanna hurt you just to hear you screaming my name" - Alice Cooper - Poison.

"And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming, or the moment of truth in your lies.
Where everything seems like the movies, yeah you bleed just to know you're alive."
Goo-Goo Dolls - Iris

Wow... am I morbid or what?! Reading them together makes me look a bit disturbed. :S

Some of the most beautiful lyrics I've heard are in Barenaked Ladies' Am I The Only One. It says it all so succinctly and perfectly.

From the lyrics:

i could make a dress
a robe fit for a prince
i could clothe a continent
but i can't sew a stitch

AND


i can shuffle cut and deal
but i can't draw a hand
i can't draw a lot of things
i hope you understand
i'm not exceptionally shy
but i've never had a man
that i could look straight in the eye
and tell my secret plans


It is my *sigh* song

Omg, I heard this for the firstime on Clubland X-treme Hardcore 5 the other day and it was sooo sick, I think I prefer it to the original - it's the Styles & Breeze mix:



I love the lyrics to Atmosphere's Sunshine because I love the summer & the sunshine so very much:



Don't really need the lyrics if you watch the vid cos it's a very slow rap...

Ain't no way to explain or say
How painful the hangover was today
In front of the toilet, hands and knees
Trying to breathe in between the dry heaves
My baby made me some coffee
Afraid that if I drink some it's probably coming right back out me
Couple of advil, relax and chill
At a standstill with how bad I feel
I think I need to smell fresh hair
So I stepped out the back door and fell down the stairs
The sunlight hit me dead in the eye
Like it's mad I gave half the day to last night
My bad sight made me trip on my ass right into that patch of grass like that's life
All of a sudden, I realize something
The weather is amazing, even the birds are bumpin
Stood up and took a look and a breath
And there's that bike that I forgot that I possessed
Never really seen exercise as friendly
But I thing something's telling me to ride that ten speed
The brakes are broken, it's alright
The tires got air and the chain seems tight
Hopped on and felt the summertime,
It reminds me of one of them Musab lines like

[Chorus 2x]

Sunshine, sunshine, it's fine
I feel it in my skin, warming up my mind,
Sometimes you gotta give in to win,
I love the days when it shines, whoa let it shine

If I could I would keep this feeling in a plastic jar
Bust it out whenever someone's actin hard
Settle down, barbeque in the backyard
The kids get treats and old folks get classic cars
Every day that gets to pass is a success
Every woman looks better in a sun dress
The sunshine's an excuse to shoot hoops, get juice
Show improve their moves and let loose
I hear voices, I see smiles to match em
Good times and you can feel it in the fashion
Even though the heat cooks up the action
The streets still got butterflies
Enough kids to catch 'em
Ridin my bike around these lakes man
Feelin like I finally figured out my escape plan
Take it all in and the day started off all wrong
Somehow now that hangover is all gone
Ain't nothing like the sound of the leaves
When the breeze penetrates these southside trees
Leanin' up against one, watchin the vibe
Forgettin' all about the stress, thanking god I'm alive
It's so simple, I had to keep the song simple
When I get home I'm gonna open all the windows
Feelin all right, stopped at a stop sign
A car pulled up, bumpin Fresh Prince's Summertime

[Chorus 2x]

Leave me dreaming on the bed, see you right back here tomorrow, for the next round.
Keep this scene inside your head, as the bruises turn to yellow, and the swelling goes down.

And if you're ever around, in the city or the suburbs, of this town,
Be sure to come around, I'll be wallowing in sorrow, wearing a frown, like pierrot the clown.

Saw you crashing 'round the bay, never seen you act so shallow, or look so brown.
Remembered all the things you'd say, how your promises went hollow, as you threw me to the ground.

And if you're ever around, in the backstreets or the alleys, of this town.
Be sure to come around, I'll be wallowing in pity, wearing a frown, like pierrot the clown.

When I dream, I dream if your lips,
when I dream, I dream of your kiss,
when I dream, I dream of your fists,
your fists,
your fists..

Leave me bleeding on the bed, see you right back here tomorrow, for the next round.
Keep this scene inside your head, as the bruises turn to yellow, and the swelling goes down..

And if you're ever around, in the city or the suburbs, of this town, be sure to come around, I'll be
wallowing in sorrow, wearing a frown, like pierrot the clown,
pierrot the clown,
pierrot the clown,
pierrot the clown,
pierrot the clown.

- Pierrot the clown, by Placebo

I love that song, Meds. My favourite song by Placebo atm is Broken Promise, closely followed by Slacker♥♥♥♥♥ (rhymes with flackerditch).

Another one that hit me today is Cave (Muse again).
Come in my ca(aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa)ve,
And I'll burn your heart awa(aaaaaaaa)y.
Come in my ca(aaaaaaaaa-haaa)ve.
And I'll burn your heart awa(aaaaa)y, yeah.
:D

My last gf was absolutely obsessed with Placebo - I now refuse to listen to them.

All about Britney atm - "If U Seek Amy" actually spells out two words! Genius!
