I hope this isn't a repeat topic, if it is - my apologies.

What's your favorite lyric from a song? Share it here.
I'll start with one of my favorite lyrics from that "prolific" rapper Iggy Azalea ;):

"You ain't met nobody that'll do ya how I'll do ya, that'll bring you to your knees praise Jesus Hallelujah"

.....and go
 
Solemn faced the village settles down
Undetected by the stars
And the hangman plays the mandolin before he goes to sleep
And the last thing on his mind
Is the Wild Eyed Boy imprisoned
'Neath the covered wooden shaft
Folds the rope into its bag
Blows his pipe of smolders
Blankets smoke into the room
And the day will end for some
As the night begins for one

David Bowie - Wild Eyed Boy from Freecloud

Love the imagery of this :)
 
Min Warb Naseu

Hu War
Hu War Opkam Har a Hit Lot

Got Nafiskr Orf
Auim Suimade
Foki Afa Galande

What am I supposed to do
If I want to talk about peace and understanding
But you only understand the language of the sword
What if I want to make you understand that the path you chose leads to downfall
But you only understand the language of the sword
What if I want to tell you to leave me and my beloved ones in peace
But you only understand the language of the sword

I let the blade do the talking...
So my tongue shall become iron
And my words the mighty roar of war
Revealing my divine anger´s arrow shall strike

All action for the good of all
I see my reflection in your eyes
But my new age has just begun

The sword is soft
In the fire of the furnace
It hungers to be hit
And wants to have a hundred sisters
In the coldest state of their existence
They may dance the maddest
In the morass of the red rain

Beloved brother enemy
I sing my sword song for you
The lullaby of obliteration
So I can wake up with a smile
And bliss in my heart
And bliss in my heart
And bliss in my heart

Coexistence, Conflict, combat
Devastation, regeneration, transformation
That is the best I can do for you

I see a grey gloom on the horizon
That promises a powerful sun to rise
To melt away all moons
It will make the old fires of purification
Look like dying embers
Look like dying embers
Look like dying embers

Min Warb Naseu

Hands, put your empty hands in mine
And scars, show me all the scars you hide
And hey, if your wings are broken
Please take mine so yours can open too
Cause I'm gonna stand by you

Stand By You

These threads always come and go . . . but it's been awhile and I like them.

Love these verses and refrain from 'Ripple' by the Grateful Dead, written by Hunter/Garcia. I think they speak to generosity, our unique paths in life, individuality and responsibility.


Reach out your hand if your cup be empty,
If your cup is full may it be again,
Let it be known there is a fountain,
That was not made by the hands of men.

There is a road, no simple highway,
Between the dawn and the dark of night,
And if you go no one may follow,
That path is for your steps alone.

Ripple in still water,
When there is no pebble tossed,
Nor wind to blow.

You, who choose to lead, must follow
But if you fall you fall alone.
If you should stand then who's to guide you?
If I knew the way I would take you home
 
Helloween-King for 1000 years
orgotten in his reich of shadows
Banned forever
One thought
The lord of the evil
Was given name and place of the seventh sea
Shelter of the seventh key
Who was betraitous?
I guess You know
There would be more than one name to name
Now he whose name is many searches for the one
The one strong enough to survive
As his terrestrial hand
Enticement and promise will crown the king
A puppet on a string
For a thousand years
So they sing

Wouldn't it be nice to plunder with your eyes
Whatever there's for you to see
Is yours to be
Let me be there
Just tell me You don't care
Just say You came here after life
However high the price
I know your secrets
I know it all

I know your secrets
I see them hidden with our light
I am your sickness
Hiding You right behind your lies
Don't try to kill me
I cannot die I guess You know
You and I will be
Heaven above and hell below

Brother [harsh voice]
Release me [women's choir]
Father [harsh voice]
Foresee me [women's choir]
Brother [harsh voice]
Believe me, perceive me [women's choir]

[Andi (1)]
Time will be a turning wheel
Whichever will torn
Time will be a toy
Time we will enjoy
Say You want to live forever
Mindless one day
Say You will obey
And I

[Band as choir (1)]
I will show
I will show
I will show no light of dawn
And I will show
I will show
I will show no fright at all

Wouldn't it be nice to reign until you sigh
Whatever there's attracting You
We'll give this turn to you [harsh voice]
Let me be there
Just say You want to share
The power no one will withstand
Just be my human hand

I know your secrets
I know it all

[Band as choir (1)]
[Solo 1]
[Women's choir (1)]
Don't release us now he sees us
No illusions, executions
The damnation, the annihilation
The non-stopping celebration
Don't release us now he sees us
No illusions,

Executions !
[Andi & harsh voice (1)]
We're a king for a thousand years
We are a king of million tears
We're the ones who bring desire by the greed and fears
We're a king of fallen men
We are keepers of the damned
through the hoping to obsession
We're the king
We're the king for a thousand years

Angels of fire
aeon of darkness fear and hate
Wake up my preachers
Stand up you're bringer of the sate
no one can kill us
We cannot die I guess one knows
Mankind is sleeping
My victim You'll be buried so close

I know your secrets
I know it all

[twinsolo]
Goodbye sorrows [Men's choir]
Follow me You have to return the key
Release me [Mixed choir]
Believe me [Mixed choir]
Goodbye sorrows [Men's choir]
Remember Boy you'll have to [...]
Goodbye sorrows [Men's choir]
Follow me You have to return the key
Conceive me [Mixed choir]

[Andi (1)]
[Band as choir (1)]
[Andi & harsh voice (1)]
We're a king for a thousand years​

Remember all these lyrics and you'll win my heart.
 
Something in the way she moo's
Attracts me like no udder lover
Something in the way she moo-oo's me
I don't want to leave her now,
I know she's a big brown cow...

I think this post breaks about three or four lit rules...

Yes! I love Rachel Platten!!! Fight song has been my personal them song while I am going through some things.

Fight Song Lyrics

Like a small boat
On the ocean
Sending big waves
Into motion
Like how a single word
Can make a heart open
I might only have one match
But I can make an explosion

And all those things I didn't say
Wrecking balls inside my brain
I will scream them loud tonight
Can you hear my voice this time?

This is my fight song
Take back my life song
Prove I'm alright song
My power's turned on
Starting right now I'll be strong
I'll play my fight song
And I don't really care if nobody else believes
'Cause I've still got a lot of fight left in me

Losing friends and I'm chasing sleep
Everybody's worried about me
In too deep
Say I'm in too deep (in too deep)
And it's been two years I miss my home
But there's a fire burning in my bones
Still believe
Yeah, I still believe

And all those things I didn't say
Wrecking balls inside my brain
I will scream them loud tonight
Can you hear my voice this time?

This is my fight song
Take back my life song
Prove I'm alright song
My power's turned on
Starting right now I'll be strong
I'll play my fight song
And I don't really care if nobody else believes
'Cause I've still got a lot of fight left in me

A lot of fight left in me

Like a small boat
On the ocean
Sending big waves
Into motion
Like how a single word
Can make a heart open
I might only have one match
But I can make an explosion

This is my fight song
Take back my life song
Prove I'm alright song
My power's turned on
Starting right now I'll be strong (I'll be strong)
I'll play my fight song
And I don't really care if nobody else believes
'Cause I've still got a lot of fight left in me

Know I've still got a lot of fight left in me

Don't care, it made me laugh out loud!
 
"Jump around! Jump! Jump! Jump! Jump!"

Edited to explain: I admire this song's dedication to our cardio-vascular health.
 
Look at me
I'm in a place
I never thought I'd be

Don't have the strength
To fight anymore
Or a reason not to leave

So tell me why I still keep holding on
To something I just cannot see

What makes you stay
When your world falls apart
What makes you try one more time
When it's not in your heart
At the end of your rope
When you can't find any hope
You still look at her and say
I just can't walk away
Tell me what makes you stay

I'm not afraid
Of living alone
I was alone before he came

I've been in love
Many times before
But this time's not the same

I've always been the first to say goodbye
Now it's the last thing I can do

What makes you stay
When your world falls apart
What makes you try one more time
When it's not in your heart
At the end of your rope
When you can't find any hope
You still look at her and say
I just can't walk away
Tell me what makes you stay

When it goes this deep
And feels this strong
I can't convince myself
That this love is wrong

What makes you stay
When your world falls apart
What makes you try one more time
When it's not in your heart
At the end of your rope
When you can't find any hope
You still look at her and say
I just can't walk away
Tell me what makes you stay

I love seeing other fans of Rachel! :)
 
This is due to having had my first relationship ever, it ending and me wondering how on earth I'd feel ok after how they suddenly turned, and the fact it's my idol who helped me through it!

The drought was the very worst
When the flowers that we’d grown
Together died of thirst
It was months and months of back and forth
You’re still all over me
Like a wine-stained dress
I can’t wear anymore
Hung my head as I lost the war
And the sky turned to black like a perfect storm

Chorus:
The rain came pouring down
When I was drowning
That’s when I could finally breathe
By morning
Gone was any trace of you
I think I am finally clean

There was nothing left to do
When the butterflies turned to dust
That covered my whole room
So I punched a hole in the roof
Let the flood carry away
All my pictures of you
The water filled my lungs
I screamed
So loud but no one heard a thing

Chorus

Ten months sober
I must admit
Just because you’re clean
Don’t mean you don’t miss it
Ten months older
I won’t give in
Now that I’m clean
I’m never gonna risk it
The drought was the very worst
When the flowers that we’d grown
Together died of thirst

Chorus

Finally Clean
Think I’m finally clean
Think I’m finally clean
 
How I wish, how I wish you were here.
We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year,
Running over the same old ground.
What have we found?
The same old fears.
Wish you were here.

Say a prayer for the pretender, who started out so young and strong, only to surrender.
 
You done walked on my heart
And you stomped that sucker flat
-
Yes you walked on my heart, you tore it all apart
Darlin' you just sorta / tromped on my a-or-or-ta
-
I heard that squishing underfoot, I knew we'd drift apart
And every step you took was a stomp upon my heart

Christine Glass — My Love Will Get You Home

If you wander off too far, my love will get you home.
If you follow the wrong star, my love will get you home.
If you ever find yourself, lost and all alone,
Get back on your feet and think of me.
My love will get you home, boy, my love will get you home.

If the bright lights blind your eyes, my love will get you home.
If your troubles break your stride, my love will get you home.
If you ever find yourself, lost and all alone,
Get back on your feet and think of me.
My love will get you home, boy, my love will get you home.

If you ever feel ashamed, my love will get you home.
When there's only you to blame, my love will get you home.
If you ever find yourself, lost and all alone,
Get back on your feet and think of me.
My love will get you home, boy, my love will get you home.
 
Me, Myself, and I - G Easy ft. Bebe Rexha

Yeah, lonely nights I laid awake
Pray the Lord, my soul to take
My heart's become too cold to break
Know I'm great but I'm broke as hell
Having dreams that I'm folding cake
All my life I've been told to wait
But I'mma get it now, yeah it's no debate
Yeah
 
If you like causing trouble up in hotel rooms, if you like having secret little rendezvous, if you like doing the things you know we shouldn't do, then baby you're perfect

How come my dog don't bark (when you come around)? ~ Dr. John

Now you say you ain't never met my wife, you ain't never seen her befo, '
Say you ain't been hangin' roun' my crib; well here's somethin' I wanna know...
I wanna know what in the worl' is goin' down,

How come my dog don't bark when you come around?

I got the baddest dog, he'll bite anybody.
He bit my little brother, took a chunk out of my ol' sweet li'l mother.
He bit the mailman - he sees him every day; he takes one look at you, he wanna jump up and play.
Now I ain't got a clue as to what you puttin' down, but

How come my dog don't bark when you come around?

My dog's dangerous; tried to set people straight;
I even bought a "BAD DOG" sign an' hung it on the gate.
Here you come trippin' up 'bout a quarter of nine
Fulla dat Night Train wine, tryin' to slide past the sign...

My dog been noddin' off, ain't payin' you no mind.
That's my dog, when I come home he don't sleep THAT sound!

How come my dog don't bark when you come around?
