Ok, I have a LOT of favorite Lyrics snippets, so I'm only gonna list a few.
I'm listing them in this format:
Band - Song, Albumn
Lyrics or a note saying the whole song
(Any notes I might want to add)
You'll see a lot of Metallica in here. My favorite band. I identify very well with their music.
Metallica - Cyanide, Death Magnetic
Say is that rain, or are they tears
That stained your concrete face for years
The crying, weeping, shedding strife
Year after year, life after life
(I love the whole song, but these lyrics just speak)
Green Day - American Idiot/Holiday/Boulevard of Broken Dreams/Wake Me When September Ends, American Idiot
I like these songs basically from start to finish
Metallica - Sweet Amber, St. Anger
Chase the rabbit
Fetch the stick
She rolls me over until I'm sick
She deals in habit
She deals in pain
I've run away
But I'm back again
(Great euphemism for the way many women treat men like dogs, and the way a lot of those men ACT like them too)
Three Doors Down with Bob Seger - Landing in London, Seventeen Days
LAs getting kinda crazy
And New Yorks getting kinda cold
I keep my head from getting lazy
I just can't wait to get back home
And all these days I spend away
I'll make up for this I swear
I need your love to hold me up
When its all too much to bear
And when the night falls in around me
And I don't think I'll make it through
I'll use your light to guide my way
Cause all I think about is you
Crossfade - Cold, Crossfade
What I really meant to say
Is I'm sorry for the way
I am
I never meant to be so cold
Never meant to be so cold
What I really meant to say
Is I'm sorry for the way
I am
I never meant to be so cold
Never meant to be so cold
To you I'm sorry about all the lies
Maybe in a different light
You can see me stand on my own again
Godsmack - Moon Baby, Godsmack
Why is it every day
That I feel the pain
Of you
Lets take a trip to the stars far away
Where were you when I was down
Staring into the dead
Dead
My pain is caused by my pleasure
And my soul mate lives in your body
And I can't get you out of my head
The Goo Goo Dolls - Iris, Dizzy Up The Girl
The whole song...
Guns 'N Roses - I Used to Love Her, Lies
I had to put her six feet under
And I can still hear her complain
I used to love her
But I had to kill her
I used to love her
But I had to kill her
I knew I'd miss her
So I had to keep her
Shes buried right in my back yard
I used to love her
But I had to kill her
I used to love her
But I had to kill her
She bitched so much
She drove me nuts
And now I'm happier this way
Harry Chapin - Cats In The Cradle, Book of Chapin
The whole song... again... LOL What can I say? Good lyrics are good lyrics
John Lee Hooker - Mustang Sally & GTO, More Real Folk Blues: The Missing Album
Mustang Sally
Just bought a brand new GTO
Mustang Sally
Just bought a brand new GTO
A four barrel carburetor
Got a stick down in the floor
You see her comin
You better move over
You see her rollin
You better move over
(This one's for you Sally ::dlaugh:
Korn - Twisted Transistor (Explicit), See You on the Other Side
Hey you hey you
Devil's Little Sister
Listening to your twisted transistor
Hold it between your legs
Turn it up
Turn it up
The wind is coming through
Can't get enough
Alone in life
When no one understands you
But don't give up
Because the music do
Linkin Park - In The End, Hybrid Theory
All I know
Time is a valuable thing
Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings
Watch it count down to the end of the day
The clock ticks life away
Its so unreal
Metallica - Harvester of Sorrow, ...And Justice For All
Another one that I like the whole lyrics of the song. You'll find that a lot with Metallica for me
Nickelback - If Everyone Cared, All The Right Reasons
If everyone cared
And nobody cried
If everyone loved
And nobody lied
If everyone shared
And swallowed their pride
Then we'd see the day
When nobody died
Metallica - Master of Puppets, Master of Puppets
Controlling faster
Obey your Master
Your life burns faster
Obey your Master
Master
Master of Puppets are pulling your strings
Twisting your mind
And smashing your dreams
Blinded by me you can't see a thing
Just call my name
Cause I hear you scream
(Again, I love the whole song, but these lyrics stand out as being so true)
Metallica - Leper Messiah, Master of Puppets
Spineless from the start, sucked into the part
circus comes to town, you play the lead clown
Please, please
spreading his disease, living by his story
Knees, knees
falling to your knees, suffer for his glory
You will
Time for lust, time for lie
time to kiss your life goodbye
Send me money, send me green
Heaven you will meet
Make a contribution
and you'll get a better seat
Bow to Leper Messiah
Marvel at his tricks, need your Sunday fix
blind devotion came, rotting your brain
Chain, chain
Join the endless chain, taken by his glamour
Fame, Fame
Infection is the game, stinking drunk with power
We see
Time for lust, time for lie
time to kiss your life goodbye
Send me money, send me green
Heaven you will meet
Make a contribution
and you'll get a better seat
Bow to Leper Messiah
Witchery, weakening
Sees the sheep are gathering
set the trap, hypnotize
now you follow
Time for lust, time for lie
time to kiss your life goodbye
Send me money, send me green
Heaven you will meet
Make a contribution
and you'll get a better seat
Lie.
Metallica - Disposable Heroes, Master of Puppets
Soldier boy, made of clay
Now an empty shell
Twenty one, only son
but he served us well
Bred to kill, not to care
Do just as we say
Finished here, Greeting Death
He's yours to take away
Back to the front
You will do what I say, when I say
Back to the front
You will die when I say, you must die
Back to the front
You coward
You servant
You blindman
Barking of machinegun fire, does nothing to me now
Sounding of the clock that ticks, get used to it somehow
More a man, more stripes you wear, glory seeker trends
Bodies fill the fields I see
The slaughter never ends
