    "if you came here to save me you walked in too slow
    there is nothing left but burnt remains of what i was two years ago
    to reconcile my damaged mind would take more than you have to give
    there's nothing left but ruined dreams that diminish all i am"

    There will come a time, you'll see
    With no more tears
    And love will not break your heart,
    But dismiss your fears.
    Get over your hill and see
    What you find there
    With grace in your heart and flowers in your hair.

    :heart:

    Some of mine....

    dumbed down and numbed by time and age
    you dreams to catch this world the cage
    the highway sets the travelers stage
    all exits look the same
    three words that became hard to say
    i and love and you

    And the time will come when you see we're all one, and life flows on within you and without you.

    The Whole World is a Stage
    And everybody’s playing a part
    The stage is set - the curtain goes up - the scene is a broken heart
    Act I - You told me you loved me - but when the opening starts
    You read your lines so perfectly - like the words came straight from you heart
    And I believed you
    The whole world is a stage
    And everybody’s playing a part
    Act 2 - You forgot your makeup - and at last I saw the real you
    Your heart was under your costume - but your eyes revealed we were through
    And I believed you
    The whole world is a stage
    And everybody’s playing a part
    Act 3 - You hear someone crying - but for me it’s a tragedy
    You make your exit with the guy I thought was my friend
    And I believed you
    Yeah yeah yeah
    The whole world is a stage
    And everybody’s playing a part
    Now that the act is all over I can see it was nowhere - FADE

    "What once was hurt
    What once was friction
    What left a mark
    No longer stings
    Because grace makes beauty
    Out of ugly things"
    -Grace, U2

    "I can try to get by
    But every time I start to panic
    I'm a little bit shy
    A bit strange and a little bit manic
    La da da da, da da da da
    La da da da, da da da da da"
    -Wishing Well, Blink-182

    I can't choose between the two :)

    I can't believe you would lie in your grave,wondering, if you have lived your only living days well.....would you not like to be, sitting on top of the world with your legs hanging free, would you not like to be ok ok ok.....

    Can't believe I forgot this one... The album Satellite by P.O.D. has become my go-to running music :smile:

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kFEO1X1SJzM

    I believe that this world believes in love (x 2)

    We might never really agree
    On anything about the lives we live
    Between you and me. So differently.

    We don't always see things the same
    We should agree to disagree
    If we meet at love we can work it out

    chorus:
    I believe you and I will overcome
    I believe you and I believe in love

    Whether you think I'm so confused
    Or if you feel the way I do
    So don't give in to this hate within

    Living in this world of pain
    Don't let it bring you down
    The world is a ghetto

    chorus:
    I believe that this world believes in love
    I believe you and I believe in love

    The first verse of Patty Griffin's "Nobody's Crying"
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dGlNEbFuN9g

    Not because of the lyrics themselves but how they are constructed with the timing, to change their own meaning 180 degrees from what you think she is initially communicating. I think it is brilliant, but one can't appreciate it without actually listening to it. Also, the use of "throat" instead of "neck" creates an entirely different meaning. Then the 'ol double reverse in the last line. LOVE it!

    Well he jumps in the taxi, headed for the sky
    He's off to slay some demon dragon...fly
    And he looked at me, that long last time
    Turned away again and I waved goodbye
    In an envelope, inside his coat
    Is a chain I wore, around my throat
    Along with, a note I wrote
    Said "I love you, but I don't
    ...even know why"

    You date a girl and find out later
    She smells just like a percolator
    Her perfume was made right on the grill
    Why, they could percolate the ocean in Brazil

    And when their ham and eggs need savor
    Coffee ketchup gives 'em flavor
    Coffee pickles way outsell the dill
    Why, they put coffee in the coffee in Brazil

    No tea, no tomato juice
    You'll see no potato juice
    The planters down in Santos all say "No, no, no"<<<

    So you'll add to the local color
    Serving coffee with a cruller
    Dunkin' doesn't take a lot of skill
    They've got an awful lot of coffee
    An awful lot of coffee
    Man, they got a gang of coffee in Brazil!!

    Adele has some pretty awesome lines

    "Don't underestimate the things that I will do."

    "Rumor has it he's the one I'm leaving you for."

    "Sometime it lasts in love, but sometimes it hurts instead."

    some cats be emceeing to illustrate what we be seeing
    hard to be a spiritual being when s**t is shaking what you believe in,
    for trees to grow in brooklyn, seeds need to be planted,
    i'm asking if yall feel me and the crowd left me stranded
    -talib kweli

    Not strong, only aggressive, cause the power ain't directed
    That's why, we are subjected to the will of the oppressive
    Not free, we only licensed
    Not live, we just excitin
    Cause the captors.. own the masters.. to what we writin
    Not compassionate, only polite, we well trained
    Our sincerity's rehearsed in stage, it's just a game

    Young woman with a drink in her hand
    She like to listen to rock and roll
    She moves with the music
    `Cause it never gets old
    It's the only thing
    That never gets old

    &

    You got a nice big car
    Nothing bothers you
    Somebody cut out your eyes
    You refuse to see
    Somebody cut out your heart
    You refuse to feel
    And you live in a sham
    You create your own hell
    You live in the past
    And talk about war
    And you dig your own grave yeah
    But it's a life you can save
    So stop getting fussed
    It's not gonna happen
    ~Sinead O'Connor - Lion & The Cobra
