    today i listened to a few random songs on my ipod and this line of a Tove Lo song kind of caught my attention: "But on good days I am charming as f*ck"
    But in general I tend to forget lyrics...
    What are some lyrics that stuck with you?
    (what also stuck with me is from Taylor Swifts Bad Blood: bandaids don't fix bullet holes)

To. Think."

    I do this all the time. Seriously.

    So do intro songs count? Haha

    Thanks to a friends suggestion I watched 'Over the Garden Wall'. I like the intro song, but this particular part catches me:

    "But where have we come, and where shall we end?
    If dreams can't come true, then why not pretend?"
    —"Into the Unknown"

    True true a little disheartening tone but it resonates with me. Sometimes I like to imagine myself in different place where I'm more than I am. However my fantasy world does not control my life and it helps me deal with my emotions.

    This is a really tough one, as I enjoy music sooo much ... . Ultimately, I'll have to give the "top" position to two incredible songs:
    1) It's Tv on the radio - DLZ. Some of you might know it from "Breaking bad" :
    "Never you mind, death professor
    Electrified, my love is better
    It's crystallized, so am I
    All could be the diamond fused with who's next"

    2) All time's classic -> Queen - Too much love will kill you
    "Too much love will kill you
    If you can't make up your mind
    Torn between the lover and the love you leave behind
    You're headed for disaster 'cos you never read the signs
    Too much love will kill you every time"

    Burn the Ballroom - The Shade of Fear: Rusted into shape and sinking into dark / Holding onto emerald hearts and hoping for a spark / It's the faded memories but the chill of feeling fine / It's the falling into madness but we do this all the time

    I have no idea how to interpret this song but the lyrics of it are really pretty.

    I probably have a lot of lines in songs that I like but that's the only one I can think of at the minute.

    Hmmm, I'm a writer so I look for interesting metaphors and things like that. Here we go:

    'Girls Like Girls' by Hayley Kiyoko: Tell the neighbors I'm not sorry if I'm breaking walls down. Building your girl's second story, ripping all your floors out.
    (Technically that's two lyrics but I don't care)

    'Yellow Flicker Beat' by Lorde: We're at the start, the colors disappear. I never watch the stars, there's so much down here.

    'Merry Go 'Round' by Kacey Musgraves: Mary had a little lamb, Mary just don't give a damn no more.

    I always pick my favourite line on songs and then listen to that over and over again. Here are some that have been on my mind lately.

    "It hurts, but I remember every scar, And I’ve learned, But living is the hardest part"
    Emeli Sande - What I Did For Love

    "Every second is a highlight"
    Jessie J - Domino

    "We live with no limits, we dance in the middle of the freezing breeze"
    Madonna - Hold Tight

    "Our love wasn't perfect, I know, I think I know the score"
    Kylie - Better the Devil You Know

    I write sins not tragedies by Panic! at the disco

    "And I'm waiting; waiting for the days to slowly pass me by
    and all the promises I'll find
    No hesitating, you pull the trigger now your story's left behind
    I know you want to see me fry; like my soul you won't survive."
    Natural born killer by Avenged Sevenfold

    "Do you like that, do you like that?"
    The diary of Jane by Breaking Benjamin

    If this love is just a dream, don’t wake me up
    It’s hard enough to face the world alone

    If your heart stops beating, God rest my soul
    Dig this grave for two, can’t live without you


    - Open Water (blessthefall)

    And together there
    In a shroud of frost, the mountain air
    Began to pass from every pane of weathered glass
    And I held you closer than anyone would ever get


    - We Looked Like Giants (Death Cab for Cutie)


    You climb out the chimney
    And meet me in the middle
    The middle of the town
    And since there's no one else around,
    We let our hair grow long and forget all we used to know
    Then our skin gets thicker from living out in the snow

    You change all the lead sleeping in my head
    As the day grows dim, I hear you sing a golden hymn...


    - Tunnels (Arcade Fire)
