Thought this might be some fun, so…

What are some lines from song lyrics that really hit you the right way? It could be that it’s deep and meaningful, or just something that amuses you. I’ll start:

Isn’t it funny how laughter looks like crying with no sound, and raindrops taste like tears without the pain ~ Queensryche - Another Rainy Night (Without You)

Droplets of “yes” and “no” in an ocean of “maybe” ~ Faith No More - Falling to Pieces

A smile as sweet as flowers
Wilted so and soured
Black tears stain the cheeks
That once were so admired
~ Dave Matthews Band - The Dreaming Tree

Her lovers queued up in the hallway
I heard them scratching at the door
I tried to tell her about Marx and Engels,
God and Angels…
I don’t really know what for…

But she looked good in ribbons
The Sisters Of Mercy ~ Ribbons

    "My hand to God

    I didn’t mean to

    After all

    Look what we’ve been through

    Men come in different shades

    That’s how we’re made

    The little house on Ellis Drive

    Is where I felt most alive

    The oak tree covered that old Ford

    I miss it Lord,

    I miss it Lord

    These blood red eyes

    Don’t see so good

    But what’s worse is if they could

    Would I change my ways?

    Wasted times and broken dreams

    Violent colors so obscene

    It’s all I see these days

    These days"

    Just a deep and profound expression of regret for misconduct towards another, a special person, and the feeling of tremendous loss that comes from the inevitable, irrevocable, change there from.

    I know it all too well.
