Favorite one-line in a song

"For every Jesus there must be a Judas" -- Boogie Down Productions - House Nigga

Totally not my usual taste in music, but my boyfriend played it for me and I love it.
 
"She shot love right into my arm"

From a song by The Avett Brothers. 'And it Spread' or 'It Spread'

Imagine your brain as a
canister filled with ink
yeah, now think of your body
as the pen where the ink resides
Fuse the two; KAPOW!
What are you now?
You're the human magic marker, won't you
please surprise my eyes?
It's in your nature,
you can paint whatever picture
you like no matter what
Ted Koppel says on channel 4 tonight
So modify this third rock from the sun
by painting myriads of pictures
with the colors of one
I'm sick of painting in black and white
my pen is dry, now I'm uptight<<<<<< ((my pen is dry, and im all uptight))
So sick of limiting myself
to fit your definition
Picture the scene, where whatever you thought,
would, in the blink of an eye,
manifest and become illustrated
You'd be sure man that every
line drawn reflected a life that you loved
not an existence that you hated
So, must we demonstrate that
we can't get it straight?
We've painted a picture,
now we're drowning in paint
Lets figure out what the fuck it's about
before the picture we painted
chews us up and spits us out
I'm sick of painting in black and white
((my pen is dry, and im all up tight))
So sick of limiting myself
to fit your definition

^^ That reminds me of an old Moody Blues song which went something like "The best form of travel is thinking" or something like it : )

"Every night I just wanna go out, get out of my head. Every day I don't wanna get up, get out of my bed"
Every Night by Paul McCartney
Listening to it now ;_;
 
[Starang Wondah]
Boo-yah! And when you hear that, then ya
It's the beast from the east, don't enter
(No doubt) Do it up like this and that
Make the change in the streets, like from fists to gats
 
"Harder you try less you succeed, dont try at all get everything you need." Slightly Stoopid
 
And, Emily - I saw you last night by the river

I dreamed you were skipping little stones across the surface of the water

Frowning at the angle where they were lost, and slipped under forever,

In a mud-cloud, mica-spangled, like the sky'd been breathing on a mirror

''May you build a ladder to the stars
And climb on every rung,
May you stay forever young...''
Bob Dylan

''No escape from the mass mind rape
Play it again jack and then rewind the tape
Play it again and again and again
Until ya mind is locked in
Believin' all the lies that they are tellin' ya
Buying all the products that they are selling ya
They say jump
Ya say how high
Ya brain dead
Just victims of the in-house drive-by
(oops, more than one line but cant ruin the flow!)
-Bullet in the Head-RATM


''Have I been blind, have I been lost inside myself and my own mind, Hypnotized, Mesmerized by what my Eyes have seen?...''
Natalie Merchant- Carnival

''Ain't nothin' gonna break my stride
Nobody's gonna slow me down, oh-no
I got to keep on moving...''
Break My Stride Matthew Wilder

''Don't if feel like the wind is always howl'n?
Don't it seem like there's never any light!
Once a day, don't you wanna throw the towel in?
It's easier than puttin' up a fight.
No one's there when your dreams at night get creepy!
No one cares if you grow...of if you shrink!
No one dries when your eyes get wet an' weepy!
From all the cryin' you would think this place's a sink!
It's a Hardknock Life
