What's your favorite song lyric of all time

But I am learning to let go
Of everything I tried to hold
Too long 'cause they all explode
Like Roman candles

‘And when feeling came up on me like a tidal wave.
I started swearing to my God and on my mother’s grave
I’d love you til the end of time
I swore I’d love you to the end of time
So now I’m praying for the end of time
To hurry up and arrive
Cause if I’ve got to spend another minute with you I don’t think that I can really survive
I’ll never break my promise or forget my vow
But God only knows what I can do right now
I’m praying for the end of time
It’s all that I can do
Praying for the end of time
So I can end my time with you’

“The same sun that melts the wax can harden clay…
And the same rain that drowns the rats will grow the hay…
And the mighty wind that knocks us down —when we lean into it, will drive our fears away.”

And the sound of happy couples
Coupling happily in the dark
While you and I sat down to tea
I remember you said to me
That no amount of poetry
Would mend this broken heart
But you can put the Hoover 'round
If you want to make a start

All my friends from school
Introduce me to their spouses
While I'm left standing here
With my hands down the front of my trousers
I just don't know what's to be done
I wonder sometimes how did dad meet mum
And how did they conceive of me
Tell me Mary
-Billy Bragg

I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say
I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be
But if you wait around a while, I'll make you fall for me
I promise, I promise you I will

The courage of a dreamer
The innocence of youth
The failures and the foolishness
That lead us to the truth
The hopes that make us happy
The hopes that don't come true
And all the love there ever was
I see this all in you
You are part, part of the human heart
You are part
Of all who took the journey
And managed to endure
The ones who knew such tenderness
The ones who felt so sure
The ones who came before you
The others yet to come
And those who you will teach it to
And those you learned it from
You are part, part of the human heart

Honestly this is the best.

But this song has a few more too…
“Time for you to go out to the places you will be from…” is so an anthem to the 20-somethings with their whole fit Ites in front of them…

Someday
When I’m awfully low
When the world is cold,
I will feel a glow
Just thinking of you….
And the way you look
Tonight

How long baby have I been away?
Oh, it feels like ages, though you say it's only days

Make me confused
Mock me with praise
Let me be used
Vary my days

I hurt myself today
To see if I still feel
I focus on the pain
The only thing that's real
The needle tears a hole
The old familiar sting
Try to kill it all away
But I remember everything
What have I become?
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know goes away
In the end
And you could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
I wear this crown of thorns
Upon my liar's chair
Full of broken thoughts
I cannot repair
Beneath the stains of time
The feelings disappear
You are someone else
I'm still right here
What have I become?
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know goes away
In the end
And you could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
If I could start again
A million miles away
I would keep myself
I would find a way
- Nine Inch Nails, Hurt (I prefer Johnny Cash cover)
