Favorite verses in songs

[Skyblade]

I just discovered this song and I like it. Personally, I think it fits me (to an extent).


"I was pulling out my hair the day I got the deal
Chemically calm
Was I meant to feel happy
That my life was just about to change?

One life pretending to be
The cat who got the cream
Oh, everybody said,
"Marina is a dreamer."
People like to tell you what you're gonna be
It's not my problem if you don't see what I see
And I do not give a (darn) if you don't believe
My problem, it's my problem
That I never am happy
It's my problem, it's my problem
On how fast I will succeed

Are you satisfied with an average life?
Do I need to lie to make my way in life?

High achiever don't you see
Baby, nothing comes for free
They say I'm a control freak
Driven by a greed to succeed
Nobody can stop me
...
Are you satisfied with an easy ride
Once you cross the line
Will you be satisfied?

Sad inside
In this life
Unsatisfied praying
Sad inside
In this life
Unsatisfied waiting
...
Black, white
(Are you satisfied, are you satisfied?)"

- Are You Satisfied, Marina and the Diamonds

[Søren]

"Mom, I think they're trying to keep, this grand romantic in me
Now that we got bottom lines.
But Mom, I think I'm ready to free, this grand romantic in me."
-Ah Ha, Nate Ruess
Take that Mom.

[Mhera]

"Don't outsmart your common sense" -Love Like Crazy, Lee Brice

(Yeah, not a verse, but the rest of the chorus is painfully cliché, even for a country song )

[Skyblade]

"Look around just people, can you hear their voice
Find the one who'll guide you to the limits of your choice.
But if you're in the eye of storm
Just think of the lonely dove
The experience of survival is the key
To the gravity of love."

- Gravity of Love, Enigma

[Banya]

Beggin for Thread - Banks
"My words can come out as a pistol
And I'm no good at aiming
But I can aim it at you

"Stooped down and out you got me beggin' for thread
To sew this hole up that you ripped in my head
Stupidly think you had it under control
Strapped down to something that you don't understand
Don't know what you were getting yourself into
You should have known
Secretly, I think you knew"

Never Too Late – Three Days Grace
"Even if you say
It'll be all right
Still I hear you say
You want to end your life...
Maybe we'll turn it all around
'Cause it's not too late
It's never too late"

[Skyblade]

I put Never Too Late as well


"So what's another Stan who's not a fan a million miles away?
And what's he gonna do to me that I haven't already seen?
You'll never stop me; you know it's everything to me

We'll never stop
Cause we're only getting better
We're not making this up
So just write another letter
I'll be fine
Alive again, another day, I'm not afraid to get over
We'll never stop
Cause we're only getting better, I'll be fine"

- Bones Shatter, Hedley

[Angelbunny]

When winter's come along and summer's dead and gone
Is there anything left here to say?
I can put my arms around the emptiness I found
And find a way to make you stay

Roman Lob - Standing Still

[James Gryphon]

"He can make a way out of no way
And turn your darkness into day"
My God Can Do Anything ~ Luther Barnes

[Skyblade]

"Hey, once upon a younger year
When all our shadows disappeared
The animals inside came out to play
Hey, went face to face with all our fears
Learned our lessons through the tears
Made memories we knew would never fade

One day my father—he told me,
"Son, don't let it slip away."
He took me in his arms, I heard him say,

"When you get older
Your wild heart will live for younger days
Think of me if ever you're afraid."

He said, "One day you'll leave this world behind
So live a life you will remember."
My father told me when I was just a child
These are the nights that never die
My father told me

When thunder clouds start pouring down
Light a fire they can't put out
Carve your name into those shining stars
He said, "Go venture far beyond these shores.
Don't forsake this life of yours.
I'll guide you home no matter where you are."


- The Nights, Avicii

[The Mask]

The first lines of Straight Outta Compton. Won't post it due to a swearword.

[Skyblade]

Structure, Innerpartysystem
"Why did you change?
Why did you bend and break?
When the water turned to wine, did it feel the same?
Why did you change?
Why did you bend and break?
When the water turned to wine, it never feels the same."


Return to Innocence, Enigma
"Don't be afraid to be weak
Don't be too proud to be strong

...

And if you want, then start to laugh
If you must, then start to cry
Be yourself, don't hide
Just believe in destiny

Don't care what people say
Just follow your own way
Don't give up and use the chance
To return to innocence"

[Banya]

Polaroid by Imagine Dragons

"I'm a first class letdown
I'm a 'shut up, sit down'

"All my life, I've been living in the fast lane
Can't slow down, I'm a rolling freight train

"I am a headcase
I am the color of boom
That's never arriving, and
You are the opera
Always on time and in tune
And I am the color of boom"

I Bet My Life by Imagine Dragons

"I know I took the path that you would never want for me
I know I let you down, didn't I?
So many sleepless nights where you were waiting up on me
Well I'm just a slave unto the night.

"Now remember when I told you that's the last you'll see of me,
Remember when I broke you down to tears
I know I took the path that you would never want for me
I gave you hell through all the years
I've been around the world and never in my wildest dreams
Would I come running home to you
I've told a million lies but now I tell a single truth:
There's you in everything I do"

Angel with a Shotgun by The Cab

"They say before you start a war,
You better know what you're fighting for.

"Don't you know you're everything I have?
And I wanna live, not just survive tonight."

City by Hollywood Undead

"I will not die in the night but in the light
Of the sun with the ashes of this world in my lungs
But who am I to say let's all just run away
The city looks so pretty
Do you wanna burn it with me?"

[Søren]

This part of the dog is pretty relatable.

"I miss the days being kids simply holding hands
I'm sick of wondering if you would ever call me back
I check my 4 different accounts just to end up mad.

Wish I could dissect your brain apart
It takes a vivisection just to understand your heart
If we could just own up, get wound up, messed up

I guess it's love
In the 21st century"
-Love in the 21st Century, Neon Trees

[Mhera]

The Word, Sara Groves

"I've done every devotional
Been every place emotional
Trying to hear a new word from God
And I think it's very odd,
that while I attempt to help myself
My Bible sits upon my shelf
With every promise
I could ever need
...
People are getting fit for Truth
Like they're buying a new tailored suit
Does it fit across the shoulders
Does it fade when it gets older
We throw ideas that aren't in style
In the Salvation Army pile
And search for something more to meet our needs"

[Skyblade]

Those are great lyrics, Mhera

Prism of Life, Enigma
"I am hunted by the future
Will the future be my past?
Or is time a fade out picture
Of my everlasting cast?
Love is phasing
Love is moving
To the rhythm of your sight
I get closer
To the crossing point of light
...
Let us try to live our lost illusions
They're the sun at night
If we don't we'll never taste
The spice of life
And when it seems that we're in a dead end street
There's no reason to cry
Cause we have a helping hand who's always aside
Forever light"


The Child in Us, Enigma
"Some day you came
And I knew you were the one
You were the rain, you were the sun
But I needed both, cause I needed you
You were the one
I was dreaming of all my life
When it is dark you are my light
But don't forget
Who's always our guide
It is the child in us"


I think Enigma is my favorite music group
