[Music] Coolest lines in Music

You're on the road, but you've got no destination. --- U2

 

Yeah, it's on the bonus CD which is three long songs about the Civil War, those lyrics are the last lyrics on that CD.

 

"I wasn't born with enough middle fingers"--Marilyn Manson

 

...H, I, J, K, LMNOPeeeee......

best part of the song IMO.

 

The original post was a little confusing, so i thought i'd repost the line from holla back:

"Listen to the two way alert
It goes (2 way beeps in song's beat)"

From "Can't Let You Go" by Fabolous

She's my pinch hitter
When the startin lineup ain't playin right
I come off the bench with her

At first you was somethin I denied
Something I would slide
Just to do somethin in the ride
But shorty
There's something you provide
Cause the entre ain't as good without somethin on the side you know?

Uh oh, I might be leavin the earth soon
My girl gone kill me if she smells the scent of your perfume
It's gonna be a clip tossed if I go back
With stains of your lip gloss on my throwback
She won't care if I'm a platinum rapper
If she catch me with an empty Magnum wrapper
So keep it on the down low call the car celly
You seen what happened with Mr. Big and R Kelly uh

 

Willie Nelson:

Almost busted in Laredo,
But for reasons that I'd rather not disclose,
But if you're stayin' in a motel there and leave,
Just don't leave nothin' in your clothes.

Johnny Cash:

I shot a man in Reno, just to watch him die.

Kris Kristofferson:

Well I woke up sunday morning
With no way to hold my head, that didn’t hurt
And the beer I had for breakfast
Wasn’t bad so I had one more for dessert

 

These are among my favorite lines from my favorite Jesus freak songs:

To turn away and not become
Another nail to pierce the skin of one who loves
more deeply than the oceans,
more abundant than the tears
Of a world embracing every heartache -- Jars of Clay

..the sound of salvation come
the sound of the rescued ones -- David Crowder Band

 

Great Louvin brothers country song from the 1959:

do you fear this man's invention
that they call atomic power
are we all in great confusion
do we know the time or hour

when a terrible explosion
may rain down upon our land
leaving horrible destruction
blotting out the works of man

are you, are you ready
for that great atomic power
will you rise and meet your savior in the air
will you shout or will you cry
when the fire rains from on high
are you ready for that great atomic power

 

"And we have no compass, and we have no map. And we have no reasons, no reasons to get back." - U2

"We only stay in orbit for a moment in time. You're everybody's satellite, I wish that you were mine." - Counting Crows

"I don't want to run and hide, I've seen it all from either side. Truth and fiction must collide someday." - Midnight Oil

"I ain't taking **** off no one, baby that was yesterday. I'm an all-American rebel making my big getaway." - Sheryl Crow

I could go on and on... I love collecting these.

 

And in the end,
The love you take is equal to the love you make.

There was a time that the pieces fit
But I watched them fall away
Mildewed and smouldering
Strangled by our coveting
I've done the math enough to know
The dangers of our second-guessing
Doomed to crumble unless we grow
And strengthen our communication

Cold silence has a tendency
To atrophy any sense of compassion
Between supposed lovers
Between supposed lovers


"Schism" - Tool.

 

**** it, cut the cord - Rage Against the Machine

And you're,
So much,
Like me.
I'm sorry.

- Ben Folds

 

They were all left behind
most of them dead
the rest of them dying.
And that's how the high command
took my daddy
from me

And when I leave I don't know what I'm leaving behind

but the sun is eclipsed by the moon.

Did we expect that life was ever fair my god
I sowed a field of rose and reaped a whipping rod
