The single most epic lyric of all time.

[Sprinal]

Combichrist - Throat Full of Glass


"It's hard to scream with a throat full of glass"

Good quote especially when you know people who crave attention and see pain as a good way to do it.

 

[Fatboy_41]

I... I can't believe it... No one has mentioned Mike Skinner?!?

"For billions of years, since the outset of time,
Every single one of your ancestors survived.
Every single person on your mum and dad's side,
Successfully looked after and passed on to you life.

What are the chances of that like?
It comes to me once in a while.
And everywhere I tell folk,
It get's the best smile."

On The Edge Of A Cliff - The Streets

 

[Ninjat_126]

The entirity of the song "Alice's Restaurant". What? It's a song... It doesn't matter that it runs for 20 minutes and is entirely in the spoken word...

...we got a phone call from officer Obie. He said, "Kid,
we found your name on an envelope at the bottom of a half a ton of
garbage, and just wanted to know if you had any information about it." And
I said, "Yes, sir, Officer Obie, I cannot tell a lie, I put that envelope
under that garbage."

After speaking to Obie for about fourty-five minutes on the telephone we
finally arrived at the truth of the matter and said that we had to go down
and pick up the garbage, and also had to go down and speak to him at the
police officer's station. So we got in the red VW microbus with the
shovels and rakes and implements of destruction and headed on toward the
police officer's station.

Now friends, there was only one or two things that Obie coulda done at
the police station, and the first was he could have given us a medal for
being so brave and honest on the telephone, which wasn't very likely, and
we didn't expect it, and the other thing was he could have bawled us out
and told us never to be see driving garbage around the vicinity again,
which is what we expected, but when we got to the police officer's station
there was a third possibility that we hadn't even counted upon, and we was
both immediately arrested. Handcuffed. And I said "Obie, I don't think I
can pick up the garbage with these handcuffs on." He said, "Shut up, kid.
Get in the back of the patrol car."

And it keeps going, but that's my favourite bit.

Mad world, the Gary Jules version.


And I find it kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which I'm dying
Are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you
'Cos I find it hard to take
When people run in circles
It's a very, very
Mad World

Or in an alternate mood, Nyan cat.

You see a mousetrap, I see free cheese and a fucking challenge.

Doginabag by The Fratellis:

It's a million o clock.
Too hot to sleep,
A rotten taste in my mouth,
And my eyes are deep.
There's nothing much really going on up here,
I'm holding on for dear life and one more beer.
I guess you could say it's a sick little show,
A bottle of troubles and a bed full of woe
It's easy to see without looking too far, you'd have to be a saint to be as sick as you are.


Just such a well written song. I can't think of any other lyrics that have had such an impact on me

Here's the song:

Oh god....How did i forget about this song?!

Thank you, Walking Kim!

 

[Nazulu]

Master of images, songs cast a light on you
Hark through dark ties that tunnel us out of sane existence
In challenge as direct as eyes see young stars assemble

Master of light, all pure chance
As exists cross divided in all encircling mode
Oh, closely guided plan awaken in our heart

Master of soul, set to touch all impenetrable youth
Ask away that thought be contact with all that's clear
Be honest with yourself, there's no doubt, no doubt

Master of time, setting sail over all of our lands
And as we look forever closer
Shall we now bid farewell, farewell?

Not even religious and I still haven't heard anything as dramatic and as thrilling as this.

 

[Dectomax]

Black - Pearl Jam ( Who also happen to be my favourite band, EVER! )

"And now my bitter hands cradle broken glass of what was everything
All the pictures have all been washed in black, tattooed everything..."

Too me, atleast, these are the lyrics that have the deepest meaning.

 

[superbatranger]

I have a few lyrics that stand out to me.

Oh, baby don't you know this partys picking up.
You be a classy looking hoe.
Girl, I promise that I'll be gentle and take it slow.
Put this thick member in your mouth and start to blow.
I'm the smouldering underdog you all dread,
plaguing your dreams with visions of the dead.
A violent pervert, psycho-narcissistic
scum of loathsome nature.

From MVP by Despised Icon

And then:
I know we'll wake up one day with a gun to the back of our brains
You'll be asking for your rib and I'll smile and call you brave
Maybe someday when - when this bloody skull has dried I'll know our city is in ruins when the greatest source of pride is a monument of dicks and ribs and gender crowns we wore
Where underneath, a plaque will read,
A plaque will read: "No woman is a whore"
