'you neednt gild the lily, offer jewels to the sunset, no one is watching, or standing in your shoes' from "doin' that rag" by the grateful dead. 'Inspiration, move me brightly light the song with sense and color, hold away despair More than this I will not ask faced with mysteries dark and vast statements just seem vain at last some rise, some fall, some climb to get to Terrapin' from "terrapin station" also by the dead 'You hand in your ticket And you go watch the geek Who immediately walks up to you When he hears you speak And says, "How does it feel To be such a freak?" And you say, "Impossible" As he hands you a bone' from "balldaof a thin man" by the bard
the 2nd verse of Oasis' "Supersonic" comes to mind, along with a hundred other Oasis songs.. Sarah McLachlan has a lot of great ones too that i love.
Now the time has come (Time) There's no place to run (Time) I might get burned up by the sun (Time) But I had my fun (Time) I've been loved and put aside (Time) I've been crushed by the tumbling tide (Time) And my soul has been psychedelicized (Time)
Then take me disappearin' through the smoke rings of my mind, Down the foggy ruins of time, far past the frozen leaves, The haunted, frightened trees, out to the windy beach, Far from the twisted reach of crazy sorrow. Yes, to dance beneath the diamond sky with one hand waving free, Silhouetted by the sea, circled by the circus sands, With all memory and fate driven deep beneath the waves, Let me forget about today until tomorrow.
And the devil in a black dress watches over My guardian angel walks away Life is short and love is always over in the morning Black wings come carry me far away With the sunlight died and night above me With a gun for a lover and a shot for the pain inside You run for cover in the temple of love You run for another it’s all the same For the wind will blow and throw your walls aside -------- Marian, there's a weight above me And the pressure is all too strong To breathe deep Breathe long and hard To take the water down and go to sleep To sink still further Beneath the fatal wave Marian I think I'm drowning This sea is killing me Both by the "Sisters of Mercy"
Nancy Sinatra - Bang Bang I was five and he was six We rode on horses made of sticks He wore black and I wore white He would always win the fight Bang bang, he shot me down Bang bang, I hit the ground Bang bang, that awful sound Bang bang, my baby shot me down Seasons came and changed the time When I grew up, I called him mine He would always laugh and say "Remember when we used to play?" Bang bang, I shot you down Bang bang, you hit the ground Bang bang, that awful sound Bang bang, I used to shoot you down Music played and people sang Just for me the church bells rang Now he's gone. I don't know why And till this day, sometimes I cry He didn't even say goodbye He didn't take the time to lie Bang bang, he shot me down Bang bang, I hit the ground Bang bang, that awful sound Bang bang, my baby shot me down there are too many good lyrics in this song to pick just one
i dont really have any fav lyrics....i like ones that center around peace and how society is weird and just same random weird ones too
Don't you know when you're loving anybody babe You're taking a gamble on a little sorrow but then who care baby cuz we may not be here tomorrow and in anybody should come along he gonna give you some love and affection i say get it while you can honey get it while you can don't you turn your back on love From the lovely Janis -It was you it was me it was every man We've all got the blood on our hands We only receive what we demand And if we want hell then hells what well have

''Did you ever wonder why we had to run for shelter when the promise of a brave new world unfurled beneath a clear blue sky'' -Pink Floyd "Good Bye Blue Sky"
