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

[cappen]

i could go on for hours with frenzal lines which are pure gold....eg

"i dnt need ur luvin all i need is a spinal operation"

"get fucked you fucking fuckwit, you cant move into my house"

(and many more)

 

[~*pixie_poo*~]

"my hopes are so high that your kiss might kill me, so won't you kiss me, so i die happy"
-"Hands down" By Dashboard Confessional

 

[teenie]

"i love the way you love, but i hate the way im suppose to love you back" - silverchair "miss you love"

 

[niall045]

this is hardly emotional, but the greatest f- you, i rule line is by tism n the song is "he'll never been an ol' man river." The first line of that is gold. Listen to it. But the rest of the songs crap.

"I'm going to stay clear, burn up in your atmosphere, cuz I'd die if I saw you, and die if I didn't see you here".

"In Your Atmosphere" - John Mayer

"Sometimes, I wish I was a bong-hit
You'd take me in and love every minute
While you tell the room the things I did to you"

"Sucker" - John Mayer

"A man can tell you so much he can say
you remain my power my pleasure my pain!"

"Kiss From A Rose" - Seal

 

[ShatteredDreams]

From the song "Judith" by A Perfect Circle...

"You're such an inspiration for the ways that I will never ever choose to be"

and a few lines later...
"Fuck your God, your Lord and your Christ"

I think it's just the way he sings it into the song that makes the lines so powerful.

Maynard James Keenan is King.

Darkthrone - Rust

"It's sin again
Like charcoal on flaming nuns
Consistence unknown like early black metal"

Carpathian Forest - Put to Sleep Like A Sick Animal

"Living in fear, your death is tailor-made
Drowned in a pool of snot, tears and misery
You haven't seen the light
The christians were wrong!!!

There is no comfort in dying
There is no peace in death
You are worth nothing
Put to sleep like a sick animal

Put to sleep like a sick animal"

"id rather eat a fridge full of arsses than know you"

 

[ur_inner_child]

You've been getting by without me
but I have been spending all my time
With a girl that I remember
Who will never leave or need to grow
because when you left you left your memory
Now it's the only thing I know

These lyrics kill me.

Also, I'm totally cringing at my music taste in 2004. OH GOD.

The whole SWING LIFE AWAY song by RISE AGAINST from PUNK GOES ACOUSTIC:
"Am I loud and clear, or am I breaking up?
Am I still your charm, or am I just bad luck?
Are we getting closer, or are we just getting more lost?

I'll show you mine if you show me yours first
Let's compare scars, I'll tell you whose is worse
Let's unwrite these pages and replace them with our own words

We live on front porches and swing life away,
We get by just fine here on minimum wage
If love is a labor I'll slave till the end,
I won't cross these streets until you hold my hand

I've been here so long, I think that it's time to move
The winter's so cold, summer's over too soon
Let's pack our bags and settle down where palm trees grow

I've got some friends, some that I hardly know
But we've had some times, I wouldn't trade for the world
We chase these days down with talks of the places that we will go

We live on front porches and swing life away,
We get by just fine here on minimum wage
If love is a labor I'll slave till the end,
I won't cross these streets until you hold my hand....until you hold my hand

I'll show you mine if you show me yours first
Let's compare scars, I'll tell you whose is worse
Let's unwrite these pages and replace them with our own words

We live on front porches and swing life away,
We get by just fine here on minimum wage
If love is a labor I'll slave till the end,
I won't cross these streets until you hold my hand

Swing life away
Swing life away
Swing life away
Swing life away"

 

[chelsea girl]

it's not the side effects of the cocaine, i'm thinking that it must be love
- bowie, station to station

 

[chelsea girl]

Park the car at the side of the road
You should know
Time's tide will smother you
And I will too
When you laugh about people who feel so
Very lonely
Their only desire is to die
Well, I'm afraid
It doesn't make me smile
I wish I could laugh

But that joke isn't funny anymore
It's too close to home
And it's too near the bone
It's too close to home
And it's too near the bone
More than you'll ever know ...


Kick them when they fall down
Kick them when they fall down
You kick them when they fall down
Kick them when they fall down
You kick them when they fall down
Kick them when they fall down
You kick them when they fall down
Kick them when they fall down


It was dark as I drove the point home
And on cold leather seats
Well, it suddenly struck me
I just might die with a smile on my
Face after all


I've seen this happen in other people's
Lives
And now it's happening in mine



best song ever
the smiths, that joke isn't funny anymore

 

[Ennaybur]

One day I might find a muse,
And in her I hope to lose,
Every song I've ever written,
Or am yet to write about,

-mannequins -josh pyke

You caress yourself
And grind my soft cold bones below
Your map of desire
Burned in your flesh
Even a fool can come
A strange lit stair
And find a rope hanging there
Stranger than kindness

- stranger than kindness - nick cave

 

[Teslacoil]

Like autumn leaves
His sense fell from him
An empty glass of himself
Shattered somewhere within.
