wow. after reading the thread, i found that a lot of the lines that immediately jumped to my mind were already taken. and that suprised me. i'll pick a few different ones instead:


"You are not my lover, and you never will be
'Cause you've never done anything to hurt me"
-Rufus Wainwright - Waiting For a Dream

"Hey mother mercy can your loins bear fruit forever?
Is your fecundity a trammel or a treasure?"
-Bad Religion - I Want to Conquer the World

"Cause nothing hurts like nothing at all;
When imagination takes full control."
-Death Cab For Cutie - President of What?

"If you stay to long inside my memory, I will trap you in a song tied to a melody
and I'll keep you there so you can't bother me."
-Bright Eyes - Take It Easy (Love Nothing)

TheWalkinDude

Have to add another couple of Johnny Cash lyrics:

"Because you're mine,
I walk the line."

"You give me cause for love that I can't hide,
For you I know I'd even try and turn the tide"

From "I Walk the Line" - the greatest love song ever written.

And another lyric from Leonard Cohen's "Chelsea Hotel #2" (Mentioned earlier):

"I need you, I don't need you,
I need you, I don't need you."

Lyrics might not be too special, but their delivery is just heart-breaking

^At The drive in - invalid litter dept.

Oh, were so contraversial. We are entirely smooth.
We admit to the truth. We are the best at what we do.

^brand new. Don't like them, but this made me laugh


I'm not the only one watching thefallout fly back up
...
We fucked like a nuclear war release.

^Dillinger escape plan. Good band, but the lyrics are funnily bad.

This gravity is a quadriplegic horse and carriage

At The Drive In - Catamcombs for this^ and this V
Pendulum swing through tantrum slits
This scalpel's gaze untamed won't feel romantic


One more thing.
Listen to these bands if you don't already. I recommend:
At the Drive In
The Mars Volta
Aphex Twin
Prodigy
The Jimi Hendrix Experience
The Dillinger Escape Plan

..that'll do for now

So this is on my mind because of yesterday. I happened to be listening to the world's greatest rock and roll band, Blue Öyster Cult, a little ditty called "Divine Wind" off the Cultosaurus Erectus album, and I finally figured out what the refrain was:

"If he really thinks we're the devil,
Then let's send him to hell!"

Yeah, that'll do.

When I think of heaven
Deliver me in a black-winged bird

And all other instruments of faith and sex and God
In the belly of a black-winged bird.

Sorry it's way longer than two... but I love it anyway.
