I was curious to know if I was the only person who fell in love with a verse in one or a couple of songs. I know there are a couple of songs where the verses really stuck out and get stuck in my head because they are catchy, emotional, clever, witty or enjoyable. Mine are:


Cause in my head there’s a greyhound station
Where I send my thoughts to far off destinations
So they may have a chance of finding a place
where they’re far more suited than here

It doesn't help that the song is stuck in my head and has been for weeks. But I love the meaning behind that verse.

I will admit, that song also is good. But for some strange reason, Soul Meets Body sticks out to me more.

Radio songs tend to get a lot of catchy lyrics stuck in my head, but I guess they're engineered for that. A lot of lyrics from the first Coheed and Cambria album have been repeating in my head recently. Like one part of Neverender:

(I'll be home) In graver mistakes, dear mom and dad, I write you in this letter that states
(I'll be moving on) When the new days begun, forget your son when he's out on his own

Death Cab love up in thissss.

"On the night you left, I came over
And we peeled the freckles from our shoulders
Our brand new coats were so flushed and pink
And I knew your heart I couldn't win
Because the season's change was a conduit
And we'd left our love in our summer skin "
-- Summer Skin // Death Cab for Cutie

"and the oats we sow,
they could seed on forever with nowhere to grow
but the heart, we know,
when it's askin its exact twin it will not be alone "
-- Oats We Sow // Gregory and the Hawk

"What can I compare you to, a favorite pair of shoes?
Maybe my bright red boots, if they had wings
Funny how we animate colorful objects saved
Funny how it's hard to take a love with no sting"
-- Take It From Me // The Weepies

"And love is the scene I render
When you catch me wide awake
And love is the dream you enter
Though I shake and shake and shake you
And love is the best endeavor
Waiting in the lion's mane "
-- Lion's Mane // Iron & Wine


"Then I got dressed
I dressed the kids as well
The limousine pulled in
And we piled in

The doctor he asked which way we were headed
I said, Sir, let's just go west and he listened obediently,
Sophie only wants to listen to radio BBC
Michael sat on my knees and whispered to me
All about the meanies
Jacqueline was being such a big girl
with her cup of tea looking out of the window
And Barbara
She looks just like my mom
Oh my god, Barbara
She looks so much like my mom"
-- Chemo Limo // Regina Spektor

"There must be some kinda way out of here"
Said the joker to the thief
"There's too much confusion
I can't get no relief"

"Businessmen, they, they drink my wine
Plowmen dig my earth
None will level on the line
Nobody of it is worth", hey

"No reason to get excited"
The thief, he kindly spoke
"There are many here among us
Who feel that life is but a joke"

"But you and I, we've been through that
And this is not our fate
So let us not talk falsely now
The hour is getting late", hey

Hey

All along the watchtower
Princes kept the view
While all the women came and went
Barefoot servants too

Outside in the cold distance
A wildcat did growl
Two riders were approaching
And the wind began to howl, hey

All along the watchtower
All along the watchtower

Death Cab love!

And I really need to listen to Regina Spektor. I keep hearing nothing but good things about her.

I love that song Hooker with a Penis xD


I met a boy wearing Vans, 501s, and a
Dope Beastie t, nipple rings, and
New tattoos that claimed that he
Was OGT,
Back in '92,
From the first EP

And in between
Sips of Coke
He told me that
He thought
We were sellin' out,
Layin' down,
Suckin' up
To the man

Well now I've got some
Advice for you, little buddy
Before you point the finger
You should know that
I'm the man,

And if I'm the man,
Then you're the man, and
He's the man as well so you can
Point that smurfin' finger up your ass

All you know about me is what I've sold you,
Dumb smurf
I sold out long before you ever heard my name

I sold my soul to make a record,
Dip :bou::bou::bou::bou:,
And you bought one

So...Shut up and

Buy my new record
Send more money
Fuck you, buddy

You look at him like you never knew him
But i know for a fact that you have

The last time you cried
Who'd you think was inside?
Thinkin' that you were
About to come over
But I'm tired now of waiting for you
You never show

______________________________________
She moves like she don't care
Smooth as silk, cool as air
Ooh it makes you wanna cry
She doesn't know your name
And your heart beats like a subway train
Ooh it makes you wanna die

______________________________________
Shake the mind
From the body
'Cause the body's always tied
To the ground.

______________________________________
And if I sell my soul,
I'll take you anywhere you want.
All my life, I've been right.
You proved me wrong in just one night.

______________________________________
Il est venu le temps des cathédrales
Le monde est entré
Dans un nouveau millénaire
L'homme a voulu monter vers les étoiles
Écrire son histoire
Dans le verre ou dans la pierre

______________________________________
Wish I knew what you were looking for
Might have known what you would find.

______________________________________
I could feel it go down
You left the sweetest taste in my mouth
You're a silver lining the clouds

______________________________________
Oh you can hold her eggs, but your basket has a hole
You can lie between her legs and go looking for, tell her you're searching for her soul
You can wait for ages, watch your compost turn to coal
Time is contagious, everybody's getting old

______________________________________
Do you remember
A kiss under the moonlight
When it was summer
It was love at first sight
Can you remember
Cause I feel the same now
Until the winter
Will see blooming this love

______________________________________
Before you slip into unconsciousness
I'd like to have another kiss
Another flashing chance at bliss
Another kiss, another kiss

______________________________________
On est bien peu de chose
Et mon amie la rose
Est morte ce matin
La lune cette nuit
A veillé mon amie
Moi en rêve j'ai vu
Eblouissante et nue
Son âme qui dansait
Bien au-delà des nues
Et qui me souriait

______________________________________
I'll hold the nails, girl, if you swing the hammer
You could call me obsessed
But I still wish I could see ya
Sneakin into your backyard
With these flowers for Ophelia

______________________________________
We spent the whole night talking.
You said you'd like to see the sun rise.
But in the gold of morning,
was nothing that I had not seen in your eyes.

______________________________________
I'm on my feet
I'm on the floor
I'm good to go
All I need is just to hear a song I know
I wanna always feel like part of this was mine
I wanna fall in love tonight

______________________________________
and I tried to forget that night and your body
but you drew it out of me
and I tried to deny the light in our bodies
but you drew it out of me
what ever happened to us!

______________________________________
i change shapes just to hide in this place but i'm still i'm still an animal
nobody knows it but me when i slip
I'm still an animal

______________________________________
With a hole in the heart I was forced to ride
in morning traffic.
With a golden hand by your fortress side
but without magic.

______________________________________
I don't care if the sun don't shine
And I don't care if nothing is mine
And I don't care if I'm nervous with you
I'll do my loving in the winter

______________________________________
We eat the night, we drink the time
Make our dreams come true
And hungry eyes are passing by
On streets we call the zoo

______________________________________
Walk with me my little child,
To the forest of denial,
Speak with me my only mind,
Walk with me until the time,
And make the forest turn to wine,
You take the legend for a fall,
You saw the product. . .

______________________________________
I remember the letter wrinkled in my hand
"I'll love you always" filled my eyes
I remember the night we walked along the Seine
Riding on the metro

______________________________________
Close the door
Leave your fears behind
Let me give you
What you're giving me

______________________________________
Slipping sideways, silver stars collide
And fade away just like our love that died
And there is nowhere in this universe to hide from you tonight
I've wrestled with angels all my life
It's always the halos and the wings that keep you blind
And if I'd fought with all the strength I held inside
I wouldn't be out here alone tonight

______________________________________
(What follows) me as the whitest lace of light
(Will swallow whole) just begs to be imbrued
(What follows) has led me to this place
Where I belong, with all erased
What follows

______________________________________
By the last breath of the four winds that blow
I'll have revenge upon Fortunato
Smile in his face I'll say "Come let us go.
I've a cask of Amontillado"

______________________________________
"Sadie G. she's crazy, see?"
That's what the white coats say.
Now Ms. Susan A. you're losing
Every opportunity to put us all away.

______________________________________
Do you remember when we used to dance
And incidence arose from circumstance
One thing lead to another we were young
And we would scream together songs unsung

______________________________________
Oh, we want to live forever
In this mirror see tomorrow
All the joy and all the sorrow
We can only hope to share

______________________________________
Dream of a time when the tides ebbing now rise again.
Then you will know that to die is not really to end.
Living and dying are both your most intimate friends.

Under your spell again
I can't say no to you
Crave my heart and it's bleeding in your hands
I can't say no to you

Shouldn't let you torture me so sweetly
Cause I can't let go of this dream
I can't breathe but I feel...
good enough
I feel good enough for you

Drink up sweet decadance
I can't say no to you
And I've completely lost myself and I don't mind
I can't say no to you

Shouldn't let you conquer me completely
Now I can't let go of this dream
Can't believe that I feel

Good enough
I feel good enough for you
It's been such a long time coming
But I feel good

And I'm still waiting for the rain to fall
Pour real life down on me
Cause I can't hold on to anything

This good enough
Am I good enough
For you to love me too?

So take care what you ask of me
Cause I can't say no.

Good Enough - Evanescence

I got something to say
I killed your baby today
And it doesn't matter much to me
As long as it's dead

Well I got something to say
I raped your mother today
And it doesn't matter much to me
As long as she spread

Sweet lovely death
I am waiting for your breath
Come sweet death, one last caress

- The Misfits, Last Caress

Too lazy, got nothing but a joke answer.

"The clothesline of cold eyes
Is washing away the face before
Now tell me what's wrong you see everyone's gone
You gotta do your best to decorate this dying' day
This dying' day

All over a bowl of bitter beans

And outside way, way up high I got a quarter moon misthanging' over me
And now, I want that rocking chair outta there
Cause he's no longer living here
It's no longer needed here

All over a bowl of bitter beans

And I got a corner store and that's all the more
For me to praise upon the holidays
And now I'll close my eyes really, really tight
And make you all go away,
I'll make you all go all go away

And I'll pull the trigger and make it all go away
And I'll make it all go away, I'll make it all go away"


"I Saw the gap again today
While you were begging me to stay
Take care not to make me enter
If I do we both may disappear

Know that I will choke until I swallow...
Choke this infant here before me.
What is this but my reflection?
Who am I to judge or strike you down?

But you're
Pushing me, shoving me
Pushing me, shoving me
Pushing me, shoving me
Pushing me, shoving me

Pushing and shoving me
Pushing and shoving me
Pushing and shoving me
Pushing and shoving me

You still love me
You still love me
But you didn't think, push it on me
You still love me
You still love me
But you didn't think, push it on me

Rest your trigger on my finger,
bang my head upon the fault line.
You better take care not to make me enter.
'cause if I do we both may disappear.

But your
Pushing pushing me
Pushing pushing me
Pushing and shoving me
Pushing and shoving me!

You still love me
You still love me
But you didn't think, push it on me
You're pushing and shoving me
pushing and shoving me

I'm slipping back into the gap again.
I'm alive when you're touching me,
Alive when you're shoving me down.

But I'd trade it all
For just a little
Piece of mind.

Push it on me
Push it on me
Push it on me
Push it on me
Your pushing and shoving
And I'm scrambling
To keep my feet flat on the ground.

I am somewhere I don't wanna be. Here.
Push me somewhere I don't wanna be.
Put me somewhere i don't wanna be.
Seeing some place I don't wanna see.
Never wanna see that place again.

Saw that gap again today
While you were begging me to stay.
Managed to push myself away,
And you, as well...my dear.

If, when I say I might fade like a sigh if I stay here,
You minimise my movement anyway,
I must persuade you another way.

Pushing and shoving and pushing, shoving me.

There's no love in fear.

Staring down the hole again
Hands are on my back again
Survival is my only friend
Terrified of what may come.

Remember I will always love you,
As I claw your smurfing throat away.
It will end no other way.
It will end no other way."


"Threw you the obvious
And you flew with it on your back
A name in your recollection
Down among a million same

Difficult not to feel a little bit
Disappointed and passed over
When I look right through,
See you naked but oblivious

And you don't see me

But I threw you the obvious
Just to see if there's more behind the
Eyes of a fallen angel,
Eyes of a tragedy

Here I am expecting just a little bit
Too much from the wounded
But I see, see through it all
See through, see you

'Cause I threw you the obvious
To see what occurs behind the
Eyes of a fallen angel,
Eyes of a tragedy

Oh well, oh well
Apparently nothing,
Apparently nothing at all

You don't, you don't
You don't see me

You don't, you don't
You don't see me

You don't, you don't
You don't see me

You don't, you don't
You don't see me

You don't see me

You don't, you don't
You don't see me at all"

Just a portion of an old tune:

When they saw each other smile.
The Hudson looked just like the Nile.
The stars all seemed to glisten,
The clouds stood still to listen.
They didn't speak for quite a while.

Then all of a sudden,
The clouds moved overhead,
The Nile was just the Hudson,
And the stars above them fled.

- Lamplight, 1960.

The innocence and naivity of young love. :love:
