I just don't think (of ALL Ed's lyrics) that those are particularly "tattoo worthy".
The repetition of "who answers" and "what ya giving" will look a little silly.
Also, why include the name of the song? You don't even have the name of the band! I think not naming the band is cool but you kill it by naming the song.
Unless you have some personal thing that makes those lyrics special, they don't really make any sense with the picture of the tat you posted. I don't get it. I'm sorry.
I can appreciate you saying neither, It's a free world mate and everyone it entitled to their opinion(s)! I just want a couple of lines of PJ lyrics so that it will even it up with the 2 lines of lyrics which are on my other leg. I will welcome suggestions but it is my leg it is going on not yours.
The PJ tattoo on my other leg doesn't have the song title on it or the bands name either, that is not a dig btw.
Ah! Now I can see there's a symmetry thing going on there. Ok, that makes more sense. I honestly wasn't trying to be a dick. I like the tat you have. Think it looks pretty cool. Just didn't understand the full picture and I don't like to give opinions about tattoo ideas willy-nilly. Good luck with it!
Thanks!
No offence taken. When PJ have soooo many excellent lyrics it is bloody difficult to know which one to choose. The Black lyrics were always in my mind for my other leg but getting the right one for this tattoo is proving very difficult indeed. I still have until Thursday at 11 am UK time to get it sorted.
Like i said earlier... I am open to suggestions so keep them coming whether you like no. 1 or no. 2.0 -
I'd go with #2 with the What ya giving? only once or What Suziman said:

Thanks.
I will probably just have one line and not repeated, unless someone has anything better!

"I'll ride the wave
Where it takes me"
It is definitely a grower on me and relevant to the tattoo too.

Either "I'll ride the wave..."

Let the ocean, dissolve 'way my past
