You Favorite Lyrics...?

My top 4....

I know someday you'll have a beautiful life, I know you'll be a star
in somebody else's sky, but why
why, why can't it be, why can't it be mine?
- BLACK


But first he was stripped, and then he was stabbed
by faceless men, well fuckers...he still stands
-GIVEN TO FLY

So I'll just lie alone and wait for the dream
where I'm not ugly and your lookin' at me
and I stare you back
oh blue eyes, I've seen it
if just once i could feel love
oh stare back at me, yeah..
- I GOT SHIT

Don't see some men as 1/2 empty, see them 1/2 full of shit
- 1/2 FULL
"Fuckin' hippies!"

    My favs:

    "I wish I was a messenger and all the news was good; I wish I was the full moon shinin' off your camaro's hood."
    - Wishlist

    "The rusted signs we ignore throughout our lives...choosing the shiny ones instead."
    - Thumbin' My Way

    I know this one's from a cover, but it's still good:
    "That what you fear the most...will meet you half way."
    - Crazy Mary

    "The selfish they're all standing in line...Faith in and hopin' to buy themselves time. Me, I figure as each breath goes by, I only own my mind."
    - I am Mine

    "I wish I was as fortunate as fortunate as me."
    - Wishlist
  • The lyrics tagged onto the end of Black are great -- but everyone thinks they're great. So I'll have to go with my log-in name:

    "All five horizons revolved around her soul...as the earth to the sun"

    There's too many good ones though, therefore I despise posts like this -- it's too frustrating!!!
    "Speaking as a child of the nineties..."

    It's been real, and it's been fun -- but it hasn't been real fun.

    Ed!!! Bring back the stage dives!!!

    Garden

    "I don’t know...i don’t care...

    I agree.

    I will add:

    They don't scurry when something bigger comes their way, don't pack themselves together and run as one, don't shit where they're not supposed to, don't take what's not theirs, they don't compare. RATS

    ... and the will to show I will always be better than before.

  • ronyrony Posts: 212
    It's been about three days now
    Since I've been aground
    No longer overwhelmed and it seems so simple now
    It's funny when things change so much
    It's all state of mind

    In hiding

    Rise. Life is in motion. I'm stuck in line.
    Rise. You can't be neutral on a moving train

    Down

    It might be your guile. It could be your mind.
    It might be the way you take your time.
    Oh, you, you, you

    U

    my will is crashing, synapses flashing slow

    roll them again
    all gods' dice.
    hey ho lets go

    - I GOT SHIT


    also...

    Indifference - basically all of it ("poison/immune, stare sun/blind, scream lungs out/fills this room, etc. etc.")

    LBC - "it's an art to live with pain....Hold me and make it the truth"
    "...but he stayed in the game, after all, he's a hockey player."

    My favorite lyrics are the ones belonging to the song INDIFFERENCE. They touched me when I was going threw a bad time, like no other song has touched me before or since.
    I think we all know the lyrics, so I won't type them all out.
    Vedder is one great lyrisist.
    Many of his songs grab me and just take me over. I feel lucky that my step-son gave me the first Pearl Jam album I ever heard. After one listen I was hooked and still am.

    I want to live,
    I want to give
    I’ve been a miner for a heart of gold.
    It’s these expressions I never give
    That keep me searching for a heart of gold
    And I’m getting old.
    Keeps me searching for a heart of gold
    And I’m getting old.

    I’ve been to hollywood
    I’ve been to redwood
    I crossed the ocean for a heart of gold
    I’ve been in my mind, it’s such a fine line
    That keeps me searching for a heart of gold
    And I’m getting old.
    Keeps me searching for a heart of gold
    And I’m getting old.

    Keep me searching for a heart of gold
    You keep me searching for a heart of gold
    And I’m getting old.
    I’ve been a miner for a heart of gold.
