I just got this idea from another forum..
Post your favorite verses..or lines from a song. Not just random, but something that gives you chills, and means something, and has gotten you through life. This is probably my favorite out of them all...not my favorite band, but they aren't bad.
Here it is...Staind WASTE:
"did daddy not love you? or did he love you just toO much? did he control you? did he live through you at your cost? did he leave no questions for you to answer on your own. WELL FVCK THEM AND FVCK HER AND FVCK HIM AND FVCK YOU FOR NOT HAVING THE STRENGHT IN YOUR HEART TO PULL THROUGH. IVE HAD DOUBTS I HAVE FAILED IVE FVCKED UP IVE HAD PLANS THAT DOESNT MEAN I SHOULD TAKE MY LIFE WITH MY OWN HANDS. but these words they cant replace the life you, the life you waste, but these words, they don't replace, the life you, the life you waste."
Chills beyond belief...it has gotten me through a lot.
That's a great bridge, one of my faves too.
I'm not going to list any lines yet, as i'm tired and i'd be here all night. Expect some tomorrow though.

Good Topic Idea.
"and you never would have thought in the end
how amazing it feels just to live again
it's a feeling that you cannot miss
it burns a hole through everyone that feels it"-The Used - Blue and Yellow
Im not quite sure why it gives me chills but its just an amazing lyric.
"Cycle of life and death supposedly
goes 'round and 'round yet it stops with me
Glorious hunter of my faith I have sinned
Killers are quiet like the the breath of the wind"-Slipknot - Killers are Quiet
another amazing lyric
"I f*cking hate you! Mother f*cker!
Mother F*cker! I f*cking hate you! F*ck You!
You son of a b*tch, you f*cking ruined my life!
I wanted to die!
I'm sick of it, mother f*cker . . . oh oh
Why'd you f*ck'n do it to me?
I Hate You!
I F*ck'n Hate You!
I Hate You!
Why?!
I Hate You!"-Korn - Daddy
Not the most intelligent lyrics but if you listen to the song, the emotion thats shown by Jon Davis is amazing, sends chills right down my spine everytime i hear it.
"There's a pain that sleeps inside
Sleeps with just one eye
And awakens, the moment that you leave
And I search through every face
Without a single trace, of the person
The person that I need
Do you know, that everytime you're near
Everybody else seems far away
So can you come and make them disappear
Make them disappear and we can stay"-Hoobastank - Disappear
Makes me think of my girlfriend everytime i hear it, its a great love song
thats all i can think of for now

the essence of your eyes
makes me just want to die
and i can't stand the way they'll never look at me again
i think about you every night
and though we couldn't make things right
i'm waiting for the time we'll share the same bedroom again
don't go
i'm gonna make you stay with me
'til i'm through
standing in this overcrowded room
and please, make me brand new
-bleed the dream - overcrowded
If for one minute you think you’re better than a sixteen year old girl in a Green Day t-shirt, you are sorely mistaken. Remember the first time you went to a show and saw your favorite band. You wore their shirt, and sang every word. You didn’t know anything about scene politics, haircuts, or what was cool. All you knew was that this music made you feel different from anyone you shared a locker with. Someone finally understood you. This is what music is about
-not from a song, but it's a good quote, from my chemical romance
I'm falling into memories of you
And things we used to do
Follow me there
A beautiful somewhere
A place that I can share with you
-yellowcard - one year, six months
Hands down this is the best day I can ever remember, I'll always remember the sound of the stereo, the dim of the soft lights, the scent of your hair that you twirled in your fingers and the time on the clock when we realized it's so late
-dashboard confessional - hands down
As this cup empties, I slowly fade from me. As day's torn by night, we drift from sight. And as hope drifts away, we're left with broken dreams and memories. Lead us through this one, and you'll find hope is gone. Please don't fade away. Use your mind and fly. False memories of life never lived.
-senses fail - hope it gone
I pray that power be not in my words
But in truth that supercedes the mind of man.
thrice - that hideous strength
i feel like i've lost everything when you're gone
left remembering what it's like to have you here with me
i thought you should know, you're not making this easy...
i fall asleep tonight, cuz that brings me closer to you
-matchbook romance - promise
The farther I fall I'm beside you. As lost as I get I will find you. The deeper the wound I'm inside you. For ever and ever I'm a part of...You and me, we're in this together now. None of them can stop us now, we will make it through somehow. You and me, if the world should break in two. Until the very end of me, until the very end of you.
-nine inch nails - we're in this together
I watch how the moon sits in the sky on a dark night,
Shining with the light from the sun,
The sun doesn't give the light to the moon assuming,
The moon's gonna owe it one.
It makes me think of how you act to me,
You do favors, then rapidly,
You turn around and start asking me about,
Things that you want back from me
I'm sick of the tension, sick of the hunger,
Sick of you acting like I owe you this,
Find another place to feed your greed,
While I find a place to rest.
Linkin Park - A Place For My Head
She was only seventeen, and forced to blame it on herself,
As she hides away to tame the pain she feels,
She was forced into a scene, a drunken man without a will,
And a god that makes mistakes and still pretends.
........
She was only trying to breathe, her broken nails had sliced his skin,
As he bruised her face, she fades away again,
'Cause when she came to at the scene, a fever wind and match in hand,
As she watched the flames she felt alive again.
Cold - Sad Happy
Talk to me, can you listen to me now?
Do you understand? Can you identify?
But it's as if you seem to, make a small effort,
As you bend, you're bending my mind,
And you try, and you try to suffocate,
And smother me, covered so I can't breathe,
(We) When we collapse, (Fall) on weakened hands (Down),
Fall together at once, abandoned,
(We) We'll force you down, (Fall) and strap you in,
Now we agree and understand?
Finger Eleven - Suffocate
Perfect by nature, icons of self indulgence
Just what we all need, more lies about a world that,
Never was and never will be,
Have you no shame? Don't you see me?
You know you've got everybody fooled.
Evanescence - Everybody's Fool
And pretty much the full Demon Hunter song "My Heartstrings Come Undone", here's a snippet;
It's buried deep within the past, I hope it doesn't last
(It's something I've already chased, I've already chased)
I try to give it all away, but it's never gonna fade
(It's something I don't wanna face, I don't wanna face)
I know you feel it's all the same, but I promise that I'll change
(It's something I've already chased, I've already chased)
You know I'm trying to believe that you're never gonna leave
(It's something I don't wanna face, I don't wanna face)

Well mine is far from chilling, but it has gotten me through rough times and sounds amazing the way it's sung/screamed.
Staind: Mudshovel
You can feel my anger
You can feel my pain
You can feel my torment
Driving me insane
I can't find these feelings
They will remain
You take away
I feel the same

It's here for us to admire if we can afford the beauty of it
Can afford the luxury of turning our heads
Adjust that thousand dollars smile and behold the creation of man
Great words won't cover ugly actions - good frames won't save bad paintings
Refused - "New Noise"
When I wake up in my makeup
It's too early for that dress
Wilted and faded - somewhere in Hollywood
I'm glad I came here with your pound of flesh
No second billing, cause you're a star now!
Oh Cinderella, they aren't sluts like you
Beautiful garbage, beautiful dresses
Can you stand up, or will you just fall down?
Hole - "Celebrity Skin"
Ok check this out
It aint impossible, it aint easy
Opportunity shifting here
So far the strategy aint working the facts are in it's so very clear
I do what I want I can't predict the future
And those who can I know that they are lying
I know the truth can be hard to swallow
A soap opera world leaders are crying
Rancid - "Let Me Go"
Back down no back down comin' up
Rise up no rise up showin up
Lock down no lock down comin' up
International cover-up
Rancid - "International Cover-Up"
The position being taken is not to be mistaken
For attempted education or righteous accusation
Only a description just an observation of the pitiful
Condition of our degeneration
Operation Ivy - "Room Without a Window"
There are no flowers
no not thing time
there'll be no angels crossing the lines
AFI - "This Time Imperfect"
How you gonna tell me where to skate, who to date,
how to fuck, how to kiss, who to love, who to diss,
how to live. What it is, somethin' gotta give.
Parents or the kids, it won't be the kids.
What? It won't be the kids.
We're talking shit, 'cause life is a 'biz.
You know it is. Everybody tryin' to get rich. God damn!
All I wanna do is live. All I wanna do is live.
-Children of the KoRn.
The whole song has a good meaning, but I like that part.
Blindsided Revelation

"The shade, it's a tool, a device, a saviour.
See I try, I look up, to the sky....
But my eyes burn..."
Deftones - My Own Summer
"Teach me, to inscribe these words, upon my heart.
Cover me, with the shadow, of your hand."
Killswitch Engage - Temple From The Within
"A groan of tedium escapes me, startling the fearful
Is this a test? It has to be, otherwise I can't go on,
Draining patience, drain vitality,
This paranoid, paralysed vampire acts a little old.
But I'm still right here, giving blood, keeping faith and I'm still right here."
"If there were no rewards to reap, loving embrace to see me through,
this tedious path I've chosen here, I certainly would've walked away by now"
"I must keep reminding myself of this."
All from Tool - The Patient
"Something has been taken from deep inside of me,
A secret I've kept locked away, no-one can ever see,
Wounds so deep they never show, they never go away,
Like moving pictures in my head for years and years they've played."
"If I could change, I would
Take back the pain, I would
Retrace every wrong move I made, I would
If I could, stand up and take the blame, I would
I would take all my shame to the grave."
Both from Linkin Park - Easier To Run
"Breaking a part of my heart to find release,
Taking you out of my blood to bring me peace."
Linkin Park/Hybrid Theory - And One
"Lying to yourself again, suicidal imbecile,
Think about it, you're pounding on the faultline,
What it'll it take to it through to you precious?
Over this, why do you want to throw it away like this?
Such a mess? You've come to this, why would I want to watch you....
Disconnect and self destruct, one bullet at a time, what's your rush now? Everyone will have his day to die.
A Perfect Circle - The Outsider
"You know why I am here....
I glow when you are near!"
InMe - Natural
Also the verses/lyrics in my sig - from Nine Inch Nails - And All The Could Have Been.
I would swallow my pride
I would choke on the rhines
But the lack thereof would leave me empty inside
I would swallow my doubt
Turn it inside out
Find nothing but faith in nothing
Eve 6, Inside Out
I cannot leave here, I cannot stay
Forever haunted, more than afraid
Asphyxiate on words I would say
I'm drawn to a blackened sky as I turn blue
AFI, This Time Imperfect
Blank face in the windowpane
Made clear in seconds of light
Disappears and returns again
Counting hours, Searching the night
Might be waiting for someone
Might be there for us to see
Might be in need of talking
Might be staring directly at me
Inside plays a lullaby
Slurred voice over children cries
On the inside
Haunting loneliness in the eye
Skin covering a secret scar
His hand is waving a goodbye
There's no response or action returned
There is deep prejudice in me
Outshines all reason inside
Given dreams all ridden with pain
And projected unto the last
Opeth, Windowpane

I agree
Why would I deny?
I don't have to lie
Was there something that I missed?
Well it's not this
Can I lie to you?
Like you want me to
I'll say that I'm in love with you
~ Ill nino - all the right words
I'm gone goodbye it's so depressing
Withering away
Take a look inside my soul is missing
All I have is dead, so I'll take you with me
Feel like I'm erased so kill me just in case
~ SlipKnot - Disasterpieces
cause we are the ones that want to play
always want to go
but you never want to stay
and we are the ones that want to choose
always want to play
but you never want to lose
~ System of a down - Aerials
standing in line
Believing the lies
Bowing down to the flag
You got a bullet in the head
~ Rage against the machine - Bullet in the head
Some people call you father
Maybe you could set me free
These people hate each other
But you've always been there for me

i love this rammstein bridge: (its Sonne btw)
Die Sonne scheint mir aus den Händen
kann verbrennen, kann dich blenden
wenn sie aus den Fäusten bricht
legt sich heiß auf dein Gesicht
legt sich schmerzend auf die Brust
das Gleichgewicht wird zum Verlust
lässt dich hart zu Boden gehen
und die Welt zählt laut bis zehn
translation: (from herzeleid.com)
The sun is shining out of my hands
it can burn, it can blind you
when it breaks out of the fists
it lays down hotly on your face
it lays down painfully on your chest
balance is lost
it lets you go hard to the floor
and the world counts loudly to ten
i wanted the top line to be my name, but it wouldnt fit :(
and that has to be the longest post i have ever made on here
Follow your common sense
You cannot hide yourself
behind a fairytale forever and ever
Only by revealing the hole truth can we disclose
The soul of this bulwark forever and ever
Forever and ever
Epica – Cry For The Moon
How can life be what you want it to be
Find the emphasis in your own reality
Deviate from the search with episodic glimpses
of a spectrum no one can see or feel, nor declare
Slowly become aware life knows its prophecies
Find the emphasis in your own reality
After Forever – Emphasis
Our course in life is a path
we must take alone no one can choose what to do,
only you
so the sins we commit are the struggles within
there's nog judge to decide what is right
what is wrong
After Forever – Sins Of Idealism
You haven't learned a thing
I haven't changed a thing
My flesh was in my bones
The pain was always free
Slipknot – Wait And Bleed
Eternal the kiss I breath
Siphon your blood to me
Feel my wounds of your god
Forever rape mortality
I smell of death
I reek of hate
I will live forever
Lost child pay the dead
Bleeding screams of silence
In my veins your eternity
Slayer – Bloodline
the sickness that you are
a plague that made me starve
do you think you can show me
how i've come this far
In Flames – Metaphor
This pain is elevating, as the hurt turns into hating
Anticipating all the ####ed up feelings again
Korn – Here To Stay

At home, drawing pictures of mountain tops, with him on top
Lemon yellow sun, arms raised in a V
The dead lay in pools of maroon below
Daddy didn't give attention
To the fact that mommy didn't care
King Jeremy the wicked, oh, ruled his world
Jeremy spoke in class today (2x)
Clearly I remember pickin' on the boy
Seemed a harmless little f***
But we unleashed a lion
Gnashed his teeth and bit the recess lady's breast
How could I forget?
And he hit me with a surprise left
My jaw left hurtin', ooh, dropped wide open
Just like the day, oh, like the day I heard
Daddy didn't give affection
And the boy was something mommy wouldn't wear
King Jeremy the wicked, ruled his world
Jeremy spoke in class today (3x)
Woo (14x)
Try to forget this...try to forget this...
Try to erase this...try to erase this...
From the blackboard...
Jeremy spoke in class today (2x)
Jeremy spoke in, spoke in (2x)
Jeremy spoke in class today- I can relate to this song the most
Jeremy-Pearl Jam Ten
Flys in the vasoline we are somtimes it blows my mind keep getting stuck here all the time-STP Vasoline
From up here these city lights burn like a
thousand miles of fire
and i'm here to sing this anthem of
are dying day-SOTY AOODD
I love you i'm not
gonna crack i kill you
I'm not gonna crack-Nirvanna Lithium
I never thought I'd die alone
I laughed the loudest, who'd have known?
I traced the cord back to the wall
No wonder it was never plugged in at all
I took my time, I hurried up
The choice was mine, I didn't think enough
I'm too depressed to go on
You'll be sorry when I'm gone
I never conquered, rarely came
16 just held such better days
Days when I still felt alive
We couldn't wait to get outside
The world was wide, too late to try
The tour was over, we'd survived
I couldn't wait 'til I got home
To pass the time in my room alone
I never thought I'd die alone
Another six months, I'll be unknown
Give all my things to all my friends
You'll never step foot in my room again
You'll close it off, board it up
Remember the time that I spilled the cup
Of apple juice in the hall
Please tell mom this is not her fault
I never conquered, rarely came
16 just held such better days
Days when I still felt alive
We couldn't wait to get outside
The world was wide, too late to try
The tour was over, we'd survived
I couldn't wait 'til I got home
To pass the time in my room alone
I never conquered, rarely came
Tomorrow holds such better days
Days when I can still feel alive
When I can't wait to get outside
The world is wide, the time goes by
The tour is over, I've survived
I can't wait 'til I get home
To pass the time in my room alone-adams Song Blink 182

A child's rhyme stuck in my head.
It said that life is but a dream.
I've spent so many years in question,
to find I've known this all along
Tool's Third Eye
He sewed his eyes shut because he is afraid to see
He tries to tell me what I put inside of me
He's got the answers to ease my curiosity
He dreamed a God up and called it Christianity
He flexed his muscles to keep his flock of sheep in line
He made a virus that would kill off all the swine
His perfect kingdom of killing, suffering and pain
Demands devotion atrocities done in his name
Burning with your God in humility
Will you die for this?
Nine Inch Nails' Heresy
I hope that last one was acceptable. I love that whole song, but those verses are really bitchin'

"But there's still tomorrow

I like that verse! Hehe! :lol:
"Shake it, shake, shake it, shake it, shake, shake it,
Shake it, shake, shake it, shake it like a Polaroid picture"
This is dedicated to the kids
Dedicated to were the music lives...
