Thought this might be some fun, so…

What are some lines from song lyrics that really hit you the right way? It could be that it’s deep and meaningful, or just something that amuses you. I’ll start:

Isn’t it funny how laughter looks like crying with no sound, and raindrops taste like tears without the pain ~ Queensryche - Another Rainy Night (Without You)

Droplets of “yes” and “no” in an ocean of “maybe” ~ Faith No More - Falling to Pieces

A smile as sweet as flowers
Wilted so and soured
Black tears stain the cheeks
That once were so admired
~ Dave Matthews Band - The Dreaming Tree

Her lovers queued up in the hallway
I heard them scratching at the door
I tried to tell her about Marx and Engels,
God and Angels…
I don’t really know what for…

But she looked good in ribbons
The Sisters Of Mercy ~ Ribbons

    One Week has been permanently tied to its usage in Smooth by Neil Cicierega for me

    Freedom’s just another word for nothing left to lose.

    This one really does make you think, doesn’t it? “Me and Bobby McGee” is a song I listen to for the tune for the most part, but listening to the lyrics is a bit of a different experience.
