What's you favorite song lyric of all time?

Here’s some of mine.

" I think God it’s moving his tongue, there’s no crowd on the streets and no sun, in my own summer"

“You and me baby ain’t nothing but mammals, so let’s do it like they do on the discovery channel”

“I felt the hate rise up in me, kneel down and clear the stone of leaves, i wandered out where you can’t see, inside my shell i wait and bleed”

"CUT MY LIFE INTO PIECES, THIS IS MY LAST RESORT, suffocation, no breathing, don’t give a fuck if i cut my arm bleeding! "

And one in Spanish

“No te puedo dejar de querer, nos hemos reido y llorado los 3, yo quiero darte mi alegria, mi guitarra, mis poesias, y solo se me ocurre amarte”

The songs are (in order) : My own summer by deftones, The bad touch by the bloodhound gang, Wait and bleed by slipknot, Last resort by papa roach, Y solo se me ocurre amarte by Alejandro Sánz.

This one has gotten me through some some patches, especially for a couple of specific things. One has completely turned around, and I’m glad I waited it out. The other still creates some stress, but there are rewards along the way.

If there were no rewards to reap

(I must keep reminding myself of this) (repeats)

No loving embrace to see me through

This tedious path I’ve chosen here

I certainly would’ve walked away

By now

And I still may

And I still may

And I’m

Gonna wait it out

Wait it out

Edit: Edited some repetitive lyrics for brevity

Emmylou Harris wrote two that are so beautiful and so sad, if you need to cry, Boulder to Birmingham:

“I don’t want to hear a sad song full of heartbreak and desire

The last time I felt like this, I was in the wilderness, and the canyon was on fire

And I stood on the mountain in the night and I watched it burn, I watched it burn”

And also in the same song she sings - “well you really got me this time, and the hardest part is knowing I’ll survive” wow.

If that somehow doesn’t work, Red Dirt Girl might.

"She loved her brother, I remember back when

He was fixing up a 49 Indian

Told her, little sister gonna ride the wind, up around the moon and back again

Well he never got farther than Vietnam, I was standing there with her when the telegram come for Lillian

Now he’s lying somewhere about a million miles from Meridian "

But we’re all gonna die,

Decompose into daffodils and dandelions,

The bees will use our flowers for whatever they like,

Make the honey that our grandkids will put inside,

their morning tea, it’s the thing of life.

Not my favorite, but it came to mind: “…live the dream with a time machine, you’ve been waiting forever. But you can make ever wait for you.” (Time Machine by Miracle Musical)

My actual favorite is probably “Often I am upset, that I cannot fall in love but I guess, this avoids the stress of falling out of it.” (This is Home by Cavetown)

Running with my eyes closed Weary flesh and bone I can feel the fire Burning in my lungs

Maybe there’s a reason why My heart pounds inside my chest Saying it’s okay to take your time Slow it down, you just need rest

I’ve been holding on with all my might But can hardly catch my breath Thinking maybe it’s the hope inside That comes alive When it’s all we have left

Dancing with the ocean Caught up in the tide I can feel the motion Pull me out to the cold and darker side

But maybe there’s a reason why I get dragged beneath the surface Every kick against the current I sink down deeper and I ask myself

Is there something more than meets the eye That makes all these troubles worth it? Or could it be the hope inside That comes alive When it’s all we have left? When it’s all we have left

It’s alright, yeah it’s okay If this all stays the same Old dreams will die New dreams will grow But I just want a hand to hold A hand to hold

We are the flowers that are ready for rain Waiting for the water to restore what remains Wilted hearts harmonize together in pain Singing hallelujah while we wait

Echoing voices from inside of the hall Spray painted pictures on the side of the wall Looking for meaning in the midst of it all Are we even listening anymore?

Maybe there’s a reason why This world spins around in circles Like it’s giving us another try Every sunrise to find purpose

Has it been happening all this time Like another breath that goes unnoticed? I’m leaving what is lost behind to find the light 'Cause maybe it’s the hope inside That comes alive When it’s all we have left

In keeping with their embrace and transformation of The Blues, Led Zeppelin lyrics are hopeful in the face of sadness.

  1. When I stopped, a rusted chain tangled me up
    Tying my body onto the ground
    As I sink underground, I call your name
    What can I do to see the daylight once more?

From Just Awake by Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. Was the first ending song of the Hunter x Hunter 2011 anime

  1. Dua Lipa’s Levitation, the “You can fly away with me tonight” portion
  2. A Malayalam movie song: youtube.com/watch?v=NkmsdwnTF50&t=68

Kannane karimukilambarane…
Madhuraamrutha muraleerava mazhayode anayuu nee
Kannane karimukilambarane
Madhuraamrutha muralidhara neelambuja nayanane…

The lyrics describes some characteristics of the Hindu god Krishna… the singer is describing her lover like that.
The lyrics is cool, but the context and the way it is sung elevates it for me.
I like it because the protagonist is imagining it and his love interest doesn’t even know of his interest. The guy is also the evil guy in the story.

Meaning of the wordsKarimukil = Rain cloud, dark cloud
Ambaram = could mean sky or lips
Madhura = A place of the god. Also madhuram means sweet
Amrith = Divine nectar, immortality juice
Mazhayode + anayuu + nee = Rain + come + you, come/arrive with the rain
Muralirava= Flute’s sound
Neela ambuja nayanan = Blue Lotus eyed

There are Malayalam leftist songs whose lyrics I like a lot, but that’d be too specific and I probably wouldn’t be able to explain them easily.

If you’re going to ask a question to everyone and also answer it, the best practice is to put your own answer as a comment, rather than in the textbox.

To answer the question:

True, there’s been trouble and trickery, sir
Trembling and tribulations
Twitches from switches of hickory, sir
You, sir, and your usurpations
But my patience wears very thin
When you play the violin

from “When You Play the Violin” by the Gothic Archies. It’s not emotionally resonant, I just love the wordplay.
