Favourite lyric from a song.... okay go!

When I talk, he listens
He don't show up missing
He's patient, polite and refined
He's handsome, romantic
But the problem is damn it
That after you it's like going
From whiskey to wine

Garth Brooks WHISKEY TO WINE
 
I've got a pocket full of pretty green
I'm gonna put it in the fruit machine
I'm gonna put it in the jukebox
It's gonna play all the records in the hit parade
This is the pretty green, this is society
You can't do nothing, unless it's in the pocket
Oh no
I've got a pocket full of pretty green
I'm gonna give it to the man behind the counter
He's gonna give me food and water
I'm gonna eat that and look for more
And they didn't teach me that in school
It's something that I learnt on my own
That power is measured by the pound or the fist
It's as clear as this oh
I've got a pocket full of pretty green!

I'm not an Addict - K's Choice

Breathe it in and breathe it out
And pass it on, it's almost out
We're so creative, so much more
We're high above but on the floor
It's not a habit, it's cool, I feel alive
If you don't have it you're on the other side
The deeper you stick it in your vein
The deeper the thoughts, there's no more pain
I'm in heaven, I'm a god
I'm everywhere, I feel so hot
It's not a habit, it's cool, I feel alive
If you don't have it you're on the other side
I'm not an addict, maybe that's a lie
It's over now, I'm cold, alone
I'm just a person on my own
Nothing means a thing to me
Oh, nothing means a thing to me
It's not a habit, it's cool, I feel alive
If you don't have it you're on the other side
I'm not an addict, maybe that's a lie
Free me, leave me
Watch me as I'm going down and
Free me, see me
Look at me, I'm falling and I'm falling
It is not a habit
It is cool, I feel alive, I feel
It is not a habit
It is cool, I feel alive
It's not a habit, it's cool, I feel alive
If you don't have it you're on the other side
I'm not an addict, maybe that's a lie
I'm not an addict
I'm not an addict
I'm not an addict
 
"I'm just a guy who never tried, I'm just a stupid fuck with brilliant luck and sometimes a bright idea. So shower me in a chorus of compliments and verse I don't deserve. I may run, but I'll never hide." - Hangman, Motion City Soundtrack
 
"We put her down in a shallow grave. She wears a dress like a bodybag everyday. And this way she'll never have to run away, and she can keep her regrets at bay, everyday." - Shallow Grave, The Birthday Massacre
 
Honky Tonk Women

I met a gin soaked, bar-room queen in Memphis,
She tried to take me upstairs for a ride.
She had to heave me right across her shoulder
'Cause I just can't seem to drink you off my mind.

It's the honky tonk women
Gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues.

I laid a divorcee in New York City,
I had to put up some kind of a fight.
The lady then she covered me in roses,
She blew my nose and then she blew my mind.

It's the honky tonk women
Gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues.

(Yeah!) It's the honky tonk women.
Gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues.

(Yeah!) It's the honky tonk women.
Gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues.

The Rolling Stones
 
"I can't speak through these walls made out of lead
Built from broken thoughts
No one sees me
They all try to make me what I'm not.

I need to talk but not with them,
They won't like what I say.
I force it out, too corrupt,
They hate me anyway

I take back all the words I feel,
'Cause I can't let them know,
What I have to do to make it sound the way it's so.

No time for an open mind,
The honest reason seems so weak.
TV comes at bedtime,
I kill the world to hear it speak

So kill me once, kill me twice,
I am already dead.
You can't hear the noise inside my head.
I'm living in a dead world,
Running out of things to do.
What I wouldn't give for something new."- Dead, The Birthday Massacre

"Can I say that there's something wrong with this place?
I got time just to waste if you would be my new escape
So then I say "can't find a lover"
Well there's another way of pulling me under
Cause it's gotta be fate if we're under the covers
It's all gonna be a-ok
It's all gonna be a-ok, a-ok" - Do it Alone, Sugarcult
 
"Her fabulous invention, What strange imagination shown.
Her glorious intentions, a sea of doubt beneath her own.
It said "You're not the first to dream this, little girl.
You know it's never happened once in this world.
It never crossed my mind that one so young could hope to find a power greater than my own."
She never did what they told her to,
And they'll never see her dream come true." - The Dream, The Birthday Massacre

All this talk of getting old
It's getting me down my love
Like a cat in a bag, waiting to drown
This time I'm coming down
And I hope you're thinking of me
As you lay down on your side
Now the drugs don't work
They just make you worse
But I know I'll see your face again

The Drugs Don't Work

The Verve
 
Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do
Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do
Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do
Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do
Oh do I love you with all my heart
I do, I do now, yes I do

Do I want you to stay by my side
I do, I do now, yes I do

Do I want you to be all mine
I do, I do now, yes I do
And I love you my baby, yes I do
And I want you my baby
yeah, yeah I do now.

"I Do", J. Geils Band.
