alright i wanted to keep this short so we didn't have long posts so post your 5 favorite verses in diffrent songs.


"If I could I would shrink myself
sink through your skin to your blood cells
and remove whatever makes you hurt,
but I'm too weak to be your cure.." - Brand New "Guernica"


"Faith and fear sears me,
and love and you pull all the right strings.
"How we get older, how we forget about each other" she said
Entwined within the sadder of days." - Converge "Saddest Day"


"Why do your eyes paralyze me
What makes me feel this way
Just carry me away with silence and heartbeats
As rapid thinking about your erabrace
and how it makes me feel
I just want to feel this way forever" - Poison The Well "Nerdy"


"Before you slip into unconsciousness
I'd like to have another kiss
Another flashing chance at bliss
Another kiss, another kiss
The days are bright and filled with pain
Enclose me in your gentle rain
The time you ran was too insane" - The Doors "Crystal Ship"


"If I can't have you I'll just close my eyes
And pretend she is you.. Pretend you are mine
I can see the world through your window
And I sing to you every night from here" - Fear Before The March Of Flames "Go Wash Your Mouth, I Don't Know Where It's Been"
 
They took all the trees
And put them in a tree museum
And they charged all the people
A dollar and a half just to see 'em
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you've got
Till it's gone
They paved paradise
And put up a parking lot. ~ Joni Mitchell "Big Yellow Taxi"

Southern trees bear strange fruit,
Blood on the leaves and blood at the root,
Black bodies swinging in the southern breeze,
Strange fruit hanging from the poplar trees. ~ Billie Holiday " Strange Fruit"

Here is fruit for the crows to pluck,
For the rain to gather, for the wind to suck,
For the sun to rot, for the trees to drop,
Here is a strange and bitter cry. ~ Billie Holiday "Strange Fruit"

Shrouding all the ground around me
Is this holy crow above me.
Black as holes within a memory
And blue as our new second sun.
I stick my hand into his shadow
To pull the pieces from the sand.
Which I attempt to reasserable
To see just who I might have been.
I do not recognize the vessel,
But the eyes seem so familiar.
Like phosphorescent desert buttons
Singing one familiar song... ~ Tool "Third Eye"

How many roaRAB must a man walk down before you call him a man?
Yes, 'n' how many seas must a white dove sail before she sleeps in the sand?
Yes, 'n' how many times must the cannon balls fly before they're forever banned?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind. The answer is blowin' in the wind. ~ Bob Dylan "Blowin' in the Wind"

When I woke up the rain was pouring down
There were people standing all around
Something warm flowing through my eyes
But somehow I found my baby that night
I lifted her head she looked at me and said
Hold me darling just a little while
I held her close I kissed her our last kiss
I found the love that I knew I had missed
Well now she's gone even though I hold her tight
I lost my love my life that night ~ J. Frank Cavalier "Last Kiss"

That makes it six...
 
1) thank you for the venom by my chemical romance

Sister, I'm not much a poet, but a criminal
And you never had a chance
Love it, or leave it, you can't understand
A pretty face, but you do so carry
On, and on, and on

I wouldn't front the scene if you paid me
I'm just the way that the doctor made me
On, and on, and on, and on,

Love is the red, the rose on your coffin door
What's life like bleeding on the floor?
The floor, the floor?

You'll never make me leave
I wear this on my sleeve
Give me a reason to believe

So give me all your poison
And give me all your pills
And give me all your hopeless hearts
And make me ill
You're running after something
That you'll never kill
If this is what you want
Then fire at will

Preach all you want but who's gonna save me?
I keep a gun on the book you gave me, hallelujah, lock and load
Black is the kiss, the touch of the serpent tongue
It ain't the mark or the scar that makes you run
And run, and run, and run

You'll never make me leave
I wear this on my sleeve
Give me a reason to believe

So give me all your poison
And give me all your pills
And give me all your hopeless hearts
And make me ill
You're running after something
That you'll never kill
If this is what you want
Then fire at will


You'll never make me leave
I wear this on my sleeve
You wanna follow something
Give me a better cause to lead
Just give me what I need
Give me a reason to believe

So give me all your poison
And give me all your pills
And give me all your hopeless hearts
And make me ill
You're running after something
That you'll never kill
If this is what you want
Then fire at will

So give me all your poison (fire at will)
And give me all your pills
And give me all your hopeless hearts (fire at will)
And make me ill
You're running after something (fire at will)
That you'll never kill
If this is what you want (fire at will)
Then fire at will

2) dakota by stereophonics

thinking about thinking of you

3) creep by radiohead


When you were here before
Couldn't look you in the eye
You're just like an angel
Your skin makes me cry
You float like a feather
In a beautiful world
And I wish I was special
You're so ****in' special

But I'm a creep, I'm a weirdo.
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here.

I don't care if it hurts
I want to have control
I want a perfect body
I want a perfect soul
I want you to notice
When I'm not around
You're so ****in' special
I wish I was special

But I'm a creep, I'm a weirdo.
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here.

She's running out again,
She's running out
She's run run run running out...

Whatever makes you happy
Whatever you want
You're so ****in' special
I wish I was special...

But I'm a creep, I'm a weirdo,
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here.
I don't belong here.

4) break me shake me by savage garden

i never thought i'd change my
opinion again
but you moved me in a way that i've
never known

never known

but straight away you just moved
into position again

never known

take me over
when the madness stops then you
will be alone

games in the mind
well you confuse me in a way that
i've never known
you confuse me in a way that i've
never known

chorus

she says i can help you but what
do you say
but it's not free baby you'll have
to pay
you just keep me contemplating that
your soul is slowly fading

god don't you know that i live with a ton
of regret
'cause i used to move you in a way that
you've never known
but then i accused you in a way that
you've never known
but you hurt me in a way that i've
never known

break me shake me hate me take
me over
when the madness stops then you
will be alone
so won't you break me shake me
hate me take me over
when the madness stops then you
will be alone

listen baby
you'll be you'll be alone

break me shake me hate me take
me make me
fake me break me shake me hate
me take me
break me

1. "Blind man ask me forgiveness

Let freedom ring with a shotgun blast"

and float around your room."

1.So close, no matter how far. Couldnt be much more from the heart. Forever trust in who we are. And nothing else matters. Trust I seek and i find in you. Everyday for us somthing new. Open mind for a different view. And nothing else matters.
James Hetfield and Lars Ulrich metallica.

2.You're all the same
You lose, you win
Your mystery hides all your feelings
You're on your way to medicate
No one to hold, no one to sing

Take another pill for love
Let it open up your mind to be free again
Think of everyone you've lost
Let them open up your heart to complete yourself

You're all alone with broken wings
Your life hinges on your direction
Look to the stars to medicate
They sent you here the whole world sings

Take another pill for love
Let it open up your mind to be free again
Think of everyone you've lost
Let them open up your heart to complete yourself
song:take another pill for love Scooter Ward of cold.

3.I'm feeling crossed
I take it inside
Burn up the pain
My thoughts are strange
Just like the things
I used to love
Just like the tree that fell
I heard it
If art is still inside
I feel it

I wanna bleed
Show the world all that I have inside
I wanna scream
Let the blood flow that keeps me alive
Take all these strings
They call my veins
Wrap them around
Every ****ing thing

Presence of people
Not for me
Well I must remain in tune
Forever
My love is music
I will marry melody

I wanna bleed
Show the world all that I have inside
I wanna scream
Let the blood flow that keeps me alive .
song:bleed Scooter Ward of cold

4.Reverend reverend is this some conspiracy?
Crucified for no sins
An image beneath me
Whats within our plans for life
It all seems so unreal
I'm a man cut in half in this world
Left in my misery...

The reverend he turned to me
Without a tear in his eyes
It's nothing new for him to see
I didn't ask him why
I will remeraber
The love our souls had
Sworn to make
Now I watch the falling rain
All my mind can see
Now is your (face)
song:cemetary gates Pantera

5.What's left inside him?
Don't he remeraber us?
Can't he believe me?
We seemed like bothers
Talked for hours last month
About what we wanna be
I sit now with his hand in mine
But I know he can't feel...

No one knows
What's done is done
It's as if he were dead

I'm close with his mother
And she cries endlessly
Lord how we miss him
At least what's remerabered
It's so important to make best frienRAB in life
But it's hard when my friend sits with blank expressions
song:hollow Pantera

This was a kick ass thread I could do this all day

2. she laughed and so did I in our lane
and then she went to a vending machine
to buy a candy cane
but right next to that was a boy I knew
with a spring in his hand
playing a country pinball machine
called 'stand by your man'
I saw him talk to her
but I stayed in my lane
and played my game steady
and was thinking of a day
when I'd be too old to throw a ball this heavy: White Stripes - HanRABprings

3. And I hope that you die
And your death'll come soon
I will follow your casket
In the pale afternoon
And I'll watch while you're lowered
Down to your deathbed
And I'll stand o'er your grave
'Til I'm sure that you're dead: Bob Dylan - Masters of War

4. I can feel the pressure building high.
You should see you're headed for a storm.
Don't you see it building in the sky?
Don't you think it's time to swim to shore?
Cause when the seaweed sinks and the sun gets low,
When the waves retire to the darkness below,
I know, I know Ruby sees all.: Cake - Ruby Sees all

5. Hey brother christian with your high and might errand,
Your actions speak so loud, I can’t hear a word you’re saying.
Hey sister bleeding heart with all of your compassion,
Your labors soothe the hurt but can’t assuage temptation.
Hey man of science with your perfect rules of measure,
Can you improve this place with the data that you gather?
Hey mother mercy can your loins bear fruit forever?
Is your fecundity a trammel or a treasure?
And I want to conquer the world,
Give all the idiots a brand new religion,
Put an end to poverty, uncleanliness and toil,
Promote equality in all my decisions
With a quick wink of the eye
And a ’god you must be joking!’: Bad religeon - I want to Conquer the world
 
Ah get born, keep warm
Short pants, romance, learn to dance
Get dressed, get blessed
Try to be a success
Please her, please him, buy gifts
Don't steal, don't lift
Twenty years of schoolin'
And they put you on the day shift
Look out kid
They keep it all hid
Better jump down a manhole
Light yourself a candle
Don't wear sandals
Try to avoid the scandals
Don't wanna be a bum
You better chew gum
The pump don't work
'Cause the vandals took the handles

Bob Dylan - Subterranean Homesick Blues

The peddler now speaks to the countess who's pretending to care for him
Sayin', "Name me someone that's not a parasite and I'll go out and say a prayer for him"
But like Louise always says
"Ya can't look at much, can ya man?"
As she, herself, prepares for him
And Madonna, she still has not showed
We see this empty cage now corrode
Where her cape of the stage once had flowed
The fiddler, he now steps to the road
He writes ev'rything's been returned which was owed
On the back of the fish truck that loaRAB
While my conscience explodes
The harmonicas play the skeleton keys and the rain
And these visions of Johanna are now all that remain

Bob Dylan - Visions Of Johanna

Rocky Raccoon checked into his room
Only to find Gideon's bible
Rocky had come equipped with a gun
To shoot off the legs of his rival
His rival it seems had broken his dreams
By stealing the girl of his fancy.
Her name was Magil and she called herself Lil
But everyone knew her as Nancy.
Now she and her man who called himself Dan
Were in the next room at the hoe down
Rocky burst in and grinning a grin
He said Danny boy this is a showdown
But Daniel was hot-he drew first and shot
And Rocky collapsed in the corner.

The Beatles - Rocky Raccoon

Strangers passing in the street
By chance two separate glances meet
And I am you and what I see is me
And do I take you by the hand
And lead you through the land
And help me understand the best I can

Pink Floyd - Echoes

When I'm watchin' my TV
and that man comes on to tell me
how white my shirts can be.
Well he can't be a man 'cause he doesn't smoke
the same cigarrettes as me.
I can't get no, oh no no no.
Hey hey hey, that's what I say.

Satisfaction - The Rolling Stones

Im not sure if those are my top 5 I would have to really think about it for a while, but those are definetely some of my favorites
